This course begins where Level One ended - with a quick review and then more valuable information about setting up relationships between multiple tables.

Key topics include: setting up relationships between multiple tables, resolving many-to-many relationships, placing a portal on a layout, and using calculation fields to manipulate numbers and text. You'll also learn to create summary reports and executive summary reports, import data into a FileMaker Pro (FMP) database, export from FMP to Excel and Word, save backup copies, and get an introduction to the power of scripts in FMP.

Presenter(s): Frank Widman, Senior Technical Training Consultant

Prerequisites: FileMaker Pro, Level 1 or equivalent experience.

Enrollment: Use our Online Registration Form, or call 459-5565.
