1. Mr. - The writing is star, the information star, the graphics which are often referenced star. To explain the rating: The book often discusses thing that are basic to any windows machine, how to expand a window, adjust boxes and inane things like that. Seriously, if you’re attempting to learn Access and don’t know that kind of stuff good luck. Next, it does a good job of explaining the theory of relationships between fields, but almost no information on how to do it and the many kinds of one to many relationships available. Let alone when to use what kind. Next, the same problem extends to all areas covered; it asks you to build things without telling you how, but does take time to tell you how to save a file, over and over. Finally, the graphics are useless. On an iPad they all look like computer windows and thats it. On a computer they look like they have columns and whatnot, but good luck gleaning any information from the blurry pixilated texts. I’m giving this book stars because of the excellent way the theory of relational database structure is described and the instruction on what Access could do if you had another book that told you how.

1. Global view of access - This book is a decent introduction to access. Provides key overview of the main features of access (tables, queries, forms, and reports). It does not provide examples or excersises to further understand functions which makes these features truly work such as providing the reader with examples of the different property indexes within each feature.
I would not use the book as a reference to build or further understand query criteria/expression, I would use it in case I forget how to use a set up wizard for a query, or form six months down the road or something.

1. Technical manual meets novel - Michael Rocharde has crafted a surprising blend of an enjoyable read, including real life stories, with technical details. Added to being well written, the use of capabilities on the iBook platform make for a deeper experience; written word, interactive diagrams, video and straight audio. If you are new to FileMaker, read carefully what makes sense and skim what you don't understand looking for what's possible. Later when you need that ability come back to it and I think it will sink in.

2. FileMaker & You was written for me! - Thank you to Michael Rocharde for making FileMaker not only more easily approached, but for putting it in a way that makes one feel that this massive and ever-updating resource, (FileMaker just released) is approachable and can become a fluid way to handle and optimize technology for data resource utilization. The videos, the examples, the indexing and even the call to arms: "You should write a FileMaker book" are inspirational. If I can figure out how to rate this book, I will give it a out of .

3. A great resource — especially for in-house developers - Agreed that this is not your mother’s FileMaker Training Book. Michael has been exceedingly generous with his knowledge in this book and his previous one, and both make wonderful use of the iBooks platform. I think any developer will find something new here, but I’d especially recommend FileMaker & You and FileMaker & Me to the self-taught in-house developers who learned FileMaker piecemeal as they went along, project by project. Michael shares his overall approach and best practices, and we are all better for it.

4. Different Approach - Not Your Mother’s FileMaker Training Book - Michael Rocharde takes a totally differnt approach to FileMaker training in this book. He shows how his thought process starts with trying to solve a particular problem and then how he applies his knowledge of FileMaker to solve that problem with a solution that is both efficient and well suited to the user’s needs. It is like seeing through the trees to actually see the forest. I came away with a lot of ahah moments in reading through the book and plan to disect the sample files that are given in the book to make Michael’s techniques part of my FileMake knowledge base. It is a really nicde bag of tricks that have helped me move up the FileMaker learning curve.

5. Recommended Reading - Michael’s book uses well-chosen case studies and examples to solve common problems using FileMaker. I often refer to this book to stimulate my thinking when troubleshooting methods and practices. The advice shared is based on core fundamentals of database design and depicts the related FileMaker capabilities—this is key to learning at any level. After spending many years designing custom solutions, I find the techniques in this book to be clear and concise. Michael not only covers the salient points of how a developer would identify common problems, but he delves further into how to use the native capabilities within FileMaker to frame and solve those problems. This book is a valuable read for newcomers and experienced FileMaker developers alike

6. FileMaker & You - Michael Rocharde has come out with a new book, “FileMaker and You”. Like his first book “FileMaker & Me” which focused on interface design, this new read gives you that same unique and enjoyable view into his approach while working with FileMaker, but this time focuses on how he goes about problem solving. Even though Michael categorizes it for the novice to intermediate developer it’s worth a read from even the most advanced FileMaker developer. For example, the chapter on how he approaches handling the problem found in a reservation system of assigning only available resources to a booking and how he works with dates was an “aha” moment. I look forward to reading and tearing apart the other example files he includes to explore alternative ways to approach solving problems with FileMaker… Thanks Michael.
