Building a Scheduling Application (Part 6) - Power Scripting with Parameters
One of the most powerful features added to FileMaker Pro 7 is the ability to pass parameters to a script. This one feature alone has, and will save developers hundreds of hours of time in script duplication and interface to script management.
In this continuing series about developing a Scheduling Application, I take a look at adding in some nice features to manipulating the date and time values associated to events. I also restructure the calendar navigator for better performance and the addition of a nice bonus feature. The presentation of daily events can be controlled on a calendar by calendar basis and I've added in the ability to save changes to a selected event. All in all, this is one more great lesson in learning FileMaker Pro and how to develop a professional database application!
