FileMaker Pro Tips, Tricks and Demos
• Audit Log (white paper and demo)
An oft–requested feature for FileMaker Pro solutions is an audit log – the ability to track relevant changes to a record. This tip, accompanied by a white paper PDF, outlines how to do just that. This method will automatically track each change to the fields the developer specifies, including who made the change, when, what the old value was, and what the new one is.

• Portal Sort Extreme (white paper and demo)
We are reasonably certain that sometime in the future, FileMaker will add a script step called “Sort Portal Rows”. Until then, building a user controlled variable portal sorting interface involves a couple of fields, a calc or two, and a script. This demo and white paper will show you how.

• Recurring Events (white paper and demo)
“I need a reminder to pop–up every month to close out the books”. “I want our readers to have the option of auto–renewing their subscriptions.” There are lots of reasons to use them. This file, along with the accompanying documentation, demonstrates the steps needed to implement true recurring events in FileMaker Pro.

• Recursive Calculations (white paper and demo)
The ability to create Custom Functions in FileMaker Advanced introduces the possibility of looping calculations, otherwise known as “recursion”. In this demo you’ll see several good examples of recursive calculations in action. A complete white paper covering this topic, which de–constructs the example calculations, is included as a PDF within the file authored by our own Andrew Persons.
