The Separation Model - Breaking up your data and interface

Separation is a popular topic for FileMaker Pro. The reason for this is, FileMaker Pro was never intended to be a "front end" to be used for a database "back end" - at least not in the way it is with SQL. Separation is popular because it allows for different types of front ends to be build for one common back end. One department may want feature set X and another department may want feature set Y. With separation this is possible.

Today, FileMaker 7 does allow a greater degree of separation. Keeping your data clean from ancillary calculation fields is the goal. This video will present the beginnings of how to truly separate your data from your interface.
