[CAUT] Filemaker templates

[Jim Busby]

Thanks Fred,

 

There is one feature that I HATE with this though - There is no "save"
feature, so if you accidentally change something and realize it too
late, you can't go back. What we do is back it up weekly and if we do
mess up we can quickly see what was there. 

 

If there is a way to make a "save" button or something I'd sure like to
know. That being said I'm remembering one of Murphy's Laws; "If you work
on something long enough to perfect it, it WILL break".

Hi JIm,

            Nice template! You guys are really organized over there.
Very impressive. I guess you have it web-based so each tech can access
it, though it can be used without that feature. 

            For those who want to try it and aren't used to Filemaker,
create a folder and put all those files in it. Then you will usually
only want to open the Piano Shop file, and it will find the others when
it needs them. If they aren't all in the same folder, it will look and
miss them, and give you an error message saying "x not found" and ask
you to find it. This will also happen if you change the name of a file,
as it is configured to find them by name.
