Anyone use Filemaker Pro? What version? Is it working with Lion?

Do you have v.11?

v.10?

I used to use Filemaker extensively, but haven't in a while-something like Bento would probably be more than enough for my relatively minor database needs these days.

(When did databases fall out of favor? They used to be THE essential software back in the day)

I used Filemaker for many years up until Bento came out. I switched over and it works fine for my needs. And syncs with all my iThings, too.

No... I'm way..... back! 9.0v1 - I have Advanced because I wanted to created some "stand alone" "apps" (runtime solutions for Mac and Windows). I guess I'll just switch to Bento as they want over $200 for upgrade.

I'm actually using 9.0v1 with Lion and so far no issues.... I'm asking because I saw on other forums that a FMP update for Lion is not available yet. (yet mine runs ok)

Thanks for the links. I had actually seen some of this but when my FMP worked in Lion I got to wondering what features won't work, etc. So far my db's are working ok under Lion. But my stuff is pretty simple.
