FileMaker Pro 8 in development
------------------------------
Apple subsidiary FileMaker, Inc. is hard at work on the
next version of its FileMaker database software suite,
which sources say is slated for announcement towards the
end of the year and will be rolled out as version 8.

Early builds of FileMaker Pro 8 were in extremely
limited hands until early April, when testing is said to
have expanded to a larger group consisting of a few
hundred more dedicated FileMaker Pro 8 developers and
customers.

FileMaker Pro 8 will feature a number of significant
technical improvements as well as more skin-deep user
interface and layout features. Interface enhancements
include the ability to create design-simplifying Tabbed
layouts and the create custom menus sans plug-ins,
limiting what users can see.

Sources also report that in a marketing maneuver,
FileMaker Developer will be renamed FileMaker Pro
Advanced. Features of the Pro Advanced version will
include the ability to copy tables within a file and
import tables between files and increased script
debugging capabilities, including being able to view the
contents of any field at anytime.

One of the more significant features of FileMaker Pro 8,
sources said, is the ability to save layouts in PDF and
Excel format. Sources also added that FileMaker Pro 8
will continue to use FileMaker Pro 7's file formats,
giving FileMaker Pro 7 customers the ability to upgrade
with minimal effort.
