One advantage that FileMaker Pro has had for 25 years, is that all references to tables, fields, and layouts, are based on underlying unique IDs. Meaning that if you rename something, the underlying reference ID doesn't change, and anywhere the reference occurs, the name change is reflected automatically. Obviously this would require significant effort to work in any text-file-based system, but it has always amazed me that I have never seen this feature replicated elsewhere. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
