Effective Preview Mode Management For Scripted Complex Reports In FileMaker® Pro 10
Posted on: 02-04-09 07:51 AM     Posted by: Old Advance Man

Old Advance Man
Many professionally designed FileMaker solutions created in earlier versions of the .fp7 format utilize the Status Area only in Preview Mode of Reports in order to allow users to navigate through pages and continue to printing to either paper or PDF. When these solutions are moved to FileMaker® Pro 10, the ability of users to customize the status area can lead to unexpected and undesired results and potentially to incorrect report results. A new mini White Paper offers one solution to that issue. That paper can be downloaded here.

Anomalous Behavior in FileMaker® Pro 10 and FileMaker® Pro 10 Advanced
Posted on: 01-18-09 07:06 AM     Posted by: Old Advance Man

Old Advance Man
Developers and some users have reported in a variety of venues in the past several days what they deemed to be anomalous behaviors in the new version of the products. These have included the erroneous belief that event triggers cannot be assigned to tabs, confusion about creation of custom menus in files created in earlier versions, and issues with users changing passwords.

Some of these reports seem driven by incomplete understanding of new behaviors. Yet others reflect changes in behavior. Still others are clearly issues related to the new products.

I commend to everyone’s attention a new FileMaker Tech Info that addresses many of these items. It is found here:

There is now additional new information found at:
