I have no clue how to upload what you see in my other emails to the new
format online and so, I haven’t tried.…. Hopefully, the people over
there will sneak over here to see it…. Basically, I downsized it a tad
to fit most of it on the screen and then printed a screen shot of it and
pasted it in the email.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

anyone wishes to download the free trial version and let me know, I’d be
glad to send any of you via private email what I have set up. Your
version 11.0 whatever it is, would update my version 7.0 automatically
before it would be able to open “it”. It would arrive to you all as a
“clone” meaning, empty of files but for the one I send to you. I can
make one record for you so that you can play with it. Of course, you
would have to change my name, etc., to match yours. The rest of what I
have in there, will remain fully functional. I would be willing to do
this for anyone for “FREE”…. What you might not care for in it,
my set up may not be for everyone, you would have to learn how to change or,
you would simply just not use it. I haven’t used the Dampp Chaser part
of it in a while now, registering installations online now instead but, that
was a very cool feature… I absolutely love it!

you send me how you would like it to read, provided, of course, that I don’t

for you…. If I receive to many requests, which is fine, I’ll let you figure
out how to change it yourself, it’s pretty easy though….

first come in. If it is first Presbyterian Church, I would type in
Control f, fir presb and the whole record will would pop up. Or,
anything with Presby in it. I have one client, Porter Hills

understand your frustration Greg. We could have that with any company
though. From my understanding, FileMakerPro has been in business since
around 1990 or so. That’s 21 years +. My current version is
7.0. The most recent version is 11.0, I think. Mine has never
crashed, never given me even one problem whatsoever and at this point, I
really see no reason to pay $300 or more to update unless someone out there
wants to gift me with it… </SPAN><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: black">FWIW, Jer, I really liked the
database that you showed me in FileMakerPro but was faced with the same
dilemma that I had with PTBiz some time back. All of the sudden the
programmer decided that he wasn’t interested in supporting his own effort
any longer. Before that he had specifically asked users for input on what we
thought that the program should include and the reply I receive back from a
laundry list of items it took some time to investigate was “what’s it worth
to you?” Now I thought that he was looking to improve things with input not
bucking for more dollars. He then added a dongle type thing which simply
made the program a P.I.T.A. at which point I dropped it and moved to
Quickbooks and a paper calendar. Bummer. Someday. Maybe. But it will have to
be from a company that will be around for a while before I throw my hat in
again.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
