Kent Searight Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Can anyone recommend some good reference sources on writing/creating plug-ins for FM? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genx Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 The best reference is probably the sample file provided by 24u: http://www.24usoftware.com/FMTemplate All the other resources -- when i was looking for help aren't all that useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genx Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hey Dempsey, Quick question -- what dev environment do you use to write the plug-ins? Do you use vis studio or something else? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbies dunner Posted July 19, 2007 Newbies Share Posted July 19, 2007 I'm looking to put together an updated version of an existing FM6/FM8 plug-in in C# using Visual Studio 2005 and .NET Framework 2.0. Is there an interface/assembly that FileMaker ships for C#/.NET? The only tool I've found online is supplied by dotnet2FM. It seems to work pretty well...but we don't necessarily want to rely on a 3rd party piece of software. Anyone have any news on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genx Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Is there an interface/assembly that FileMaker ships for C#/.NET? Nope - Kind of annoying that it doesn't but we're forced to live with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Roy Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Being an administrator of a large hospitality industry group of professionals, I developed a local Branch Membership program that administers all the necessary local aspects of membership management. The system has worked very well since Pagemaker 4 days. Now I need to take it up a notch by providing a simple letter writing mail-merge set of functions that simply output to their own respective MS mail programs, etc. Having WYSWG functions like font and colour choices would be a dream but perhaps a little over enthusiastic. Most of what I have found are standalone e-mail browsers that receive and deliver direct from Filemaker which, quite frankly, are suitable for the users who actually know what the heck they are doing. I have to keep the functionality down to the KISS method in which generated newsletters and letters have a one-way delivery systems... outward from their already installed browsers. Would appreciate some assistance as I am still a novice at this. Cheers, Chef Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
