The calculation dialog in FileMaker serves as a fundamental element in nearly all development activities. The calculation dialog allows developers easy access to the data fields in their solutions and to a complete function list. This shortcut presents a complete description of each calculation function, lists examples, and in many cases offers additional comments on usage. In this shortcut you will also find references to a companion book, Special Edition Using FileMaker 8, where you can find additional information on functions.
