Press Release Body: SEATTLE, WA - August 20, 2008 - We are proud to announce that
Richard Carlton, President of Richard Carlton Consulting, Inc., will be our speaker
for the August 2008 Seattle Chapter FileMaker Professional User Group (FMPUG)
meeting. Carlton's topic, "Essential Setup Skills Using FileMaker ESS", discusses
how FileMaker ESS has opened a new door into the world of integrating with external
data sources. Beyond the basics, he will provide some important information to help
users make the most of this new technology. The meeting will cover tools needed to
leverage ESS. He'll also examine how users can use SASE in conjunction with ESS to
manage, manipulate, and move data around without user intervention. He'll also
discuss best practices for ESS to ensure maximum integration.

Highlights of the session include how to integrate external SQL data into FileMaker
Pro solutions, how to use SASE to automate SQL data management, how to deal with
synchronization and refresh issues, and ESS best practices and performance
optimization.
