Using FileMaker’s SQL UNION to combine data

Byron shows off his best FileMaker 10 tricks
If you weren’t there you missed a good time of exploring FileMaker and spending more time with geeky FileMaker types. I tell ya, it just doesn’t get any better than that!
Make sure you don’t miss out: put next month’s meeting 2/18 on your calendar right now, why don’t you? We’d love to have you join us and you’d love to learn more about FileMaker 10 in general and Script Triggers in particular. Right? Right!
Byron and I gave out all manner of FileMaker-y goodness. Byron has posted some files related to his presentation, Intro to FileMaker 10, here.
My presentation on Script Triggers can be found here. It’s a PDF with the notes and my sample FMP file. (FMP 10 required.)
See you next month!
