2010 FileMaker DevCon Update

Well, it’s already Wednesday and all my plans for a detailed, literate, forensic analysis of the various sessions are…well, they’re a complete wash.

I will say I’ve picked up a little more information about FileMaker Go and have a better sense of how it can fit in the FileMaker ecosystem in interesting ways.  The wheels are turning.  Also enjoyed very much Michael Lee’s SQL presentations – very elegant (He’s from ProofGroup, so elegance goes without saying), and his presentation style was welcoming, lighthearted and perceptive.  Using repeating fields for cross tab reports – exploding out values using Get(CalculationRepetitionNumber) – is something I’ve had some experience with, but I’ve often had performance problems pointing those calcs against a set of related values and so on.  I have some stuff to try out at home.

This isn’t going to be a terribly informative post.  Mainly I wanted to toss up a few photos from last night’s dinner on the USS Midway.  So here they are.  Thanks to Andrew Ulane for the cockpit photo.

Hope everyone has a great final day at DevCon!
