Learn to harness the power of Custom Menus in this two-hour online seminar, presented by world-renowned FileMaker trainer Jerry Robin.

Custom Menus allow the developer to modify and enhance FileMaker s menus, making the menus more meaningful and appropriate for different users.
Custom Menus can:

   * Hide certain commands from users
   * Give users easier access to commands
   * Include a script as a command in any menu
   * Make virtually unlimited functionality available to users
   * Make your database look more like a custom application and less like FileMaker
   * Reduce training time and minimize tech support needs

However, the concepts behind creating Custom Menus and the series of dialog boxes for creating them can be rather overwhelming at first. We ll take you step-by-step through the process so that it all becomes crystal-clear.
Topics include:

   * Terminology: Menu Sets, Menus and Menu Items.

   * Commands, Submenus and Separators.

   * How to dynamically override the title of a menu or menu item based on the
     current context.

   * Commands vs. Behaviors in Menu Items, opening doors to powerful interface tools, like preventing users from activating the Close box.

   * Installing your Menu Sets and determining how they appear.

   * Determining which Menu Set is active.

   * Common errors and gotchas that come with Custom Menus (such as locking users out accidentally).
