FileMaker Press Release
Waves in Motion Announces the Release of Events 4.0 for FileMaker Pro 7
http://wmotion.com/events.html Rebuilt from the ground up for FileMaker
7.0, Events 4.0 is faster and
incredibly easy to use. This cross platform plug-in has powerful
new
features that will expand a developer's ability to innovate in his
or her
solutions.
Events 4.0 allows you to build triggers to run from just about
any
FileMaker action. In addition, all actions can now result in email
being
sent directly without the need for an email client application
or
additional plug-in.
Events 4.0 together with FileMaker Pro 7.0 allows developers to
trigger
scripts or send email at a specified or recurring time when:
-exiting a field,
-creating, viewing, entering, exiting, or deleting a record,
and
-entering a layout.
Events 4.0 even allows you to trigger emails to be sent behind the
scenes
at any time. Imagine the things you can do:
-Create triggers to perform automated tasks in the background.
Create
FileMaker robots that process orders as they come in and generate
complex
reports for the next morning.
-Create triggers that automatically log record edits, views, adds,
and
deletes, such as logging critical changes to your data. When a user
seems
to delete a customer record, you can actually archive it behind the
scenes.
-Add "drag and drop" functionality by building more intuitive
interfaces.
Instead of clicking a button to perform an action, let users see
how the
data is moving.
-Set and pass unlimited tokens with each triggered event. For
example, as
you log into your FileMaker system, all your time-delayed
correspondence
can automatically be sent. Imagine sending thank you e-mails or
follow-up
correspondence to find out if a customer is satisfied.
According to Vince Mennano, President, Waves in Motion, "We are
really
excited to be using the new API available with FileMaker Developer
7.0.
This allows the plug-in to show up with multiple,
self-explanatory
parameter names, making development with the plug-in extremely
easy.
FileMaker Pro 7.0 provides developers with a brand new tool set,
and we
feel Events 4.0 will become an indispensable addition to that set
of tools.
Events 4.0 will allow developers to achieve their solution goals in
new
and creative ways."
Events 4.0 integrated with FileMaker Pro 7.0 puts time on your
side!
