I've been using Filemaker for 4 or 5 years now. It's a highly powerful program with unlimited data space, never EVER crashes (KNOCK ON WOOD) never gives any problems at all, is highly dependable and you can do anything at all with it once you learn the program. I use it for calling customers back, have it pop up when the month they requested is due, for billing and whatever else you can think of. I love it.

Schedule export to iCal, database in Numbers, reports etc, in Pages... Daniel Carlton That makes two of us. :-) I've downloaded a 30-day trial version of Filemaker 10 to see how that might help my business. But it would be more helpful if a good programmer could put this all together for us techs. Just thinking out loud ... are there enough Mac/iPhone techs who could join together to hire a programmer to design a program for us? Customized to the way we want? 50 techs x $400 each = $20,000. But I don't know if that would come close to paying for a project like this. I'd be happy to pay the $400 (or more) for a good program. Anyone with programming experience to provide an educated guess on the cost of a project like this? -- JF _____ avast! Antivirus <http://www.avast.com> : Outbound message clean.
