The only place I could find to start!
All the time in my life I tried to get answers on how to make a search engine, I could not find anything anywhere with endless circles, but it was only Filemaker Pro (nine) that was helpful, which was the first step in the right direction. It was all too easy to do (and learn at the same time.) Coming with it's free simple tutorials (including an interactive video on itself), and much online help with various other references and instances, AND as well as having an already pre-built databases examples in the Program made the learning and doing extremely breezey (Poof! As if the 'how-to-database' issue ever existed!), and not only that, everything I needed was all there and all in one place! If you're looking for a place to start on databases, and can't find answers anywhere else, this one is WELL worth the investment.

Excellent Choice for Mac or Windows
Have used MS Access in years past and was looking for a database file that would work on my Mac. Filemaker Pro 9 works great and is both very flexible and easy to use. Even the Help files are pretty decent. Recommend this program highly.

good database software
Filemaker is a reliable and easy to use relational database program. The pre-designed formats are very business-oriented rather than adapted to science and research applications, but it is easy to put together whatever is needed.

File Maker Pro Review
I didn't purchase Filemaker Pro for my own use. I purchased it on behalf of the Paradise (CA) Friends of the Library on the recommendation of the board member who had prior experience in using it. Our goal was to create a more usable mailing list. We wanted software that would be all encompasing. That is, to do everything that a non-profit osrganization needs to do to maintain contact with its members, send out membership information and renewal notices. Filemaker Pro does all this and more. We no longer need any other software for day to day operations.

Avoid 9, stay with 8.5
FileMaker 9 contains very few new features over FileMaker 8.5. One of those new features is an activation system that from my experience, is a royal hassle that will cause you to waste lots of time and energy dealing with their tech support. And what do you plan to do when your free tech support runs out?
Run, do not walk away from this product.
If you don't need FileMaker 9, stay with 8.5. And if you are using 8.5, now is the time to look for another program to switch to.
