Brief Introduction

This is a complete top to bottom course to learn database information management using FileMaker Pro for a beginner.

Description

Develop professional database information solutions!

Ask yourself this question? "Have I ever used a database"? You may be surprised to realize that the internet is a database! Just about every part of your day to day activity is dependent upon databases. Your smartphones contain many databases.

You don't need to be a Information Technology Professional to get into database development. This course has 12 hours of video and hands on labs where you learn to be a professional database designer. It has 65 lessons covering FileMaker Pro usage.

In 2008, I designed database solutions for the iTunes Store. This resulted in a four-year gross sales of $150,000, and sales of over 5000+ databases sold worldwide. I also developed custom applications using FileMaker Pro for over 1200 custom databases for clients.

This course is unique in that it provides top to bottom knowledge to become a FileMaker Pro developer. There are no other courses that provide as thorough step-by-step and hands-on labs to instruct you in all aspects of the design of FileMaker database solutions.

Sections in this Course:

1: Master the basics of working with your clients to develop a database project.

2: Learn the FileMaker RIDE (Rapid Interface Design Engine) interface step by step.

3: Learn the "Data Inspector" to manage the appearance, style, and position of layout objects.

4: Add Tables, Fields, and prepare linking of tables in relationships.

5: Learn the basic to understanding how to work with the tables to connect the relational links.

6: Use labs to make the individual layouts used for the user interface.

7: Advanced user interface design is the last labs where you will cover the more advanced elements used in the My Codebook Pro interface design
