Contest in conjuction with announcement of 3 new FileMaker Pro 7 titles

Berkeley, CA—Jan. 28—Today Peachpit Press announced that it will be giving away a copy of FileMaker Pro 7 on its Web site to one lucky winner during the month of February. This contest is part of a promotion surrounding the upcoming releases of three books on FileMaker Pro 7, with the first of these books releasing today.

Never created a database before in your life? No problem. Creating a Database in FileMaker Pro: Visual QuickProject Guide (ISBN: 0-321-32121-9; $12.99, January 2005), is full of four-color illustrations and step-by-step instructions on how to create your very first database in FileMaker Pro. Rather than overwhelm the reader by covering all of FileMaker’s bells and whistles, this book explains just what you need to know to get  your first database up and running quickly.  
 
For someone who wants a more comprehensive introduction to FileMaker Pro 7 and all of its new features, FileMaker Pro 7 for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickStart Guide  (ISBN: 0-321-19960-X; $21.99; April 2005) is the next logical step. Written by FileMaker Pro veteran author Nolan Hester, this visual, task-based reference takes readers step-by-step through creating and designing databases, printing, networking, and publishing to the Web with FileMaker.

FileMaker Pro 7 Advanced for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickPro Guide by Cynthia Baron and Daniel Peck (ISBN: 0-321-19956-1; $24.99; April 2005) is for the advanced FileMaker Pro user looking to take full advantage of FileMaker Pro 7’s advanced features.
