Wonderful course ~ learning so much that I can apply but never would have understood on my own.

By William Dillard on 3/17/2019

I am really enjoying this course thus far. I feel like I am learning so much!! Thank you!

By Malcolm Douglas on 12/28/2018

Goes through items in a logical way. does not run through any processes and is clear in what is going to be achieved.

By Jan Willem van Eijk on 6/14/2018

De uitleg over de anchor-bouy is heel goed, ik heb aan de structuur veel gehad. De relatiediagram werd bij mij een 'soep-zooitje'... nu niet meer :-) Soms maak ik nog wel eens een foutje en dan kijk ik iets terug. Het blijft bij de vele instellingen in FileMaker goed opletten. John Mark wijst je op valkuilen zodat je daar waakzaam op kan zijn. Ik had ook de (e-)boeken van FileMaker aangeschaft maar deze cursus maakt het mij veel helderder. Als ik nu zo' boek opensla snap ik ook waar het over gaat. Dankjewel John!

Great detail and problem solving with work through.

By Eric Kaldor on 7/21/2017

Love this course! So useful with simple examples that have the power to do much more complicated tasks. One of the best things is watching JMO troubleshoot problems. The other aspect that is so important for me is the coverage of establishing good principles at the foundation of the database creation process that make it possible to really create elegant solutions.
