Layout and interface enhancements
Fields and objects can be rotated in 90-degree increments, allowing
greater flexibility in your layouts. Text can also be dragged and dropped
into a rotated text block.
To make creating and managing your files easier, value lists can be
defined from the File menu. Recently opened documents are listed in the
File menu on both the Mac OS and Windows platforms. You can turn
this feature on or off in Application Preferences.
Microsoft Excel import
FileMaker Pro now supports direct import of worksheets (.XLS files)
from Microsoft Excel, including versions 4.0, 5.0, and 8.0 for the
Mac OS, and versions 4.0 through 8.0 for Windows. Additionally, you
can import a specific worksheet from a Microsoft Excel workbook.
