This plugin for FileMaker Pro enables the storage and access of global variables and persistent system preferences across the application.
This plug-in is particularly useful for solutions that are meant to be launched directly from CD-ROM. It eliminates the need for global fields and relationships when creating global variables that can be shared by all databases within one application.
Another noteworthy feature of the 24U Preferences+Globals Plug-In is its ability to indicate when multiple copies of the same database are opened. This prevents data overwrite and allows for efficient handling of data across the system.
Some of the key features of this plug-in include the ability to create your own global variables on-the-fly, access your globals from any database within the same application, and share the same preferences across multiple applications.
You can also save your custom preferences on the user's hard disk even when running from CD-ROM. This is useful when upgrading to new versions of your solution, as it allows your customers to keep their preferences without losing any important data.
Lastly, with the 24U Preferences+Globals Plug-In, you can easily implement serial number protection in just a few minutes.
This plug-in works seamlessly with the Macintosh SE and requires Mac OS 7.5, as well as FileMaker Pro 4.0. Overall, the 24U Preferences+Globals Plug-In is a must-have for anyone who wants to efficiently manage global variables and preferences across multiple applications.
