**FileMaker Developer 5 Ships** -- FileMaker Inc. has released
   FileMaker Developer 5, a collection of tools, utilities, and
   documentation enabling the creation of stand-alone databases and
   customized Web publishing solutions. FileMaker Developer 5 retains
   the capability in previous developer editions to create customized
   stand-alone database applications for Macintosh or Windows
   systems, although (as in FileMaker Pro 4.0 Developer Edition)
   these solutions lack FileMaker's database sharing capabilities.
   FileMaker Developer 5 comes with JBDC and ODBC drivers (for
   connecting to FileMaker data over a network) and documents
   FileMaker Pro 5's JBDC, ODBC, and plug-in capabilities for
   developers looking to integrate products with FileMaker Pro 5 or
   extend its features. Publishing databases to the Web using
   anything but FileMaker Pro 5's Instant Web Publishing apparently
   also qualifies you as a developer in FileMaker's eyes: FileMaker
   Developer 5 documents XML and custom database publishing
   capabilities built into every copy of FileMaker Pro 5 and
   FileMaker Pro 5 Unlimited. Excerpts regarding XML publishing are
   available for free via the Web, and hints of additions to
   FileMaker's CDML capabilities can be found in FileMaker's TechInfo
   articles if one looks very carefully. FileMaker Developer 5 is
   $500 and includes FileMaker Pro 5; owners of FileMaker Pro 4.0
   Developer Edition are eligible for a $100 rebate. [GD]
