This one-day class introduces you to the FileMaker platform, shows you how to navigate an existing database, move between records, add, edit and delete records and switch between layouts and modes. You will find records that meet specific criteria and perform complex finds that use multiple request forms, omit records, and constrain and extend the existing found set of records. You will import external data to populate or create a new table. You will also learn how to create new database tables and add new fields to existing tables. You will also learn how to create new layouts for desktop and iOS devices, apply themes and editable styles, and work effectively with the design tools in Layout mode.
Prerequisites
This class requires only basic computing skills, such as using a mouse and opening and closing windows. No prior FileMaker Pro or database experience is required.
