May 25, 200520 yr Newbies Who can advise me to buy a good (the best) book on FileMaker: Using FileMaker 7, Special Edition
May 25, 200520 yr Haven't read the Filemaker Pro 7 Bible, but the FMP6 Bible was best for beginners. Using FM7, Special Edition is the best book for intermediate-advanced users that I've seen.
May 25, 200520 yr Yes, the 'Special Edition' is a great book. And at around $35, it's a good bargain. I mainly use it as a reference point, although it is written in a way that you could actually read it cover to cover and not get too bored with it. I would shy away from the Sams "Teach Yourself" book. I have two others in the series, and I'm not very impressed with them.
May 25, 200520 yr The FileMaker 7 Bible is pretty much the same as previous editions - that is, it's a decent enough reference book, but not in the class of Special Edition. -Stanley
