#1. NEW ARTICLE: Tab Switching Script Triggers
---------------------------------
If you've ever come across the need to trigger a script when you switch to a new tab, you need to know it's possible. Even though FileMaker doesn't natively provide this feature, you can make this happen with a degree of control that makes it easy - and even fun!
Using a variety of custom functions, and some creative thinking, your native tab switching script triggers are simply a matter of editing some text within a text box.
Watching this video will provide insight into using conditional formatting to make a FileMaker script trigger when you switch to any new tab.

#2. SEARCHFILEMAKER.COM A GREAT WAY TO SEARCH!
-------------------------------------------------------
This one is too easy! If you've got a question about FileMaker and you're looking to narrow down the scope of results to top FileMaker resources then use SearchFileMaker.com. It's easy-to-remember and easy-to-use.
Here's the cool part. It uses Google for finding things. Rather than searching the whole Internet. It allows you keep your search focused. There are a number of features, but I'll let you watch a video about that.
Find the video within the Scriptology Video Browser (see the news item just above) It's in the "FileMaker Help Resources" and is titled "Using SearchFileMaker.com". There are some great searching tips in there that help you find answers fast!
Enjoy the article!
