MacWorld 2007 San Francisco

by David Simpson

 

Hi, this is David Simpson with .com Solutions Inc., inviting everyone to stop by my booth #S1236 in the FileMaker Pavillion at MacWorld Expo San Francisco January 9th - 12th 2007. The FileMaker Pavillion is right next to the FileMaker and Apple booths in the South show hall of Moscone Center. I am happy to be partnering with Revolution to provide a presence for Revolution at the show, and provide a discount code at the show for anyone who wants to make a purchase. I started developing applications in Revolution in 2001 and shipped my first product named Installgen in 2002. Since then, I have developed additional applications in Revolution including: Repgen, FmPro Migrator, FmPro Worksheet and CGIScripter.

I will be introducing my newest application created with Revolution, which is FmPro Layout Diff. This graphical application reads image and XML info stored by FileMaker within MacOSX clippings files. This info is used by FmPro Layout Diff to compare FileMaker layouts by Field Name or Field ID, show Layout Object Names implemented in FileMaker 8.5, resize and print images of layouts on a single printed page.

FmPro Layout Diff is a compiled MacOSX Universal Binary application which utilizes Revolution's XML processing commands to instantly parse, extract, display and compare the field info in a resizable columnar format. FmPro Layout Diff is a multi-windowed (using multiple Revolution stacks) application which uses a Preferences file, Tips Window, Online Help, image printing and display capability, and XML parsing.

I will also be available to answer questions about how I use Revolution to develop my applications. Stop by and get a peek under the hood to see how a commercial application is implemented in Revolution.

And don't forget the MacWorld Show Special on Revolution Studio. Visitors who stop by my booth at MacWorld can enter a drawing for two copies of Revolution Studio and for those who don't win the free copies, we have a $100 discount off the price of Revolution Studio. But you do need to stop by the booth for a special limited time Promotion Code to get this discount.
