December 21, 200520 yr Add a Structured Query Language engine? Otherwise this is just visicalc with another interface.
December 22, 200520 yr Regarding tab interface ... Improve the Go to Layout step - Have it become Go to Layout [tab#, tab#, ... ] Unless I use a Go to Field step, I cannot consistently navigate back to a specific tab. If I am missing something here, let me know. Thanks. DSW
December 22, 200520 yr Newbies I agree with ori_wel that the lack of any script step to specifically specify a tab layout is annoying. The tab interface seems tacked on in many ways - it's frustrating to be looking at one tab, go to layout mode and be shown a different one. My biggest complaint is that variable support is *still* not fully implemented after being promised it since, what, FM5? There's so many script steps where variables still don't work: Perform Find, Set Field (to specify the field) [snip][/snip]. Being able to use variables in place of constants universally is a pretty basic programming concept - get with it Filemaker! [Edit] Oh yeah, and OnEvent Script firing a la javascript. It'd be so great to fire a script on entering a field or it's value getting changed [/Edit] Edited December 22, 200520 yr by Guest duh, I was doin' it wrong
