Is XML import/export support in FileMaker Pro 6 a big deal?

Absolutely! The widespread support of XML (Extensible Markup Language) standards means FileMaker Pro 6 can exchange data with a large and growing number of other applications without complex and costly converting of data between proprietary formats. A developer can easily empower a workgroup using FileMaker Pro 6 to, for example, find and get data from Websites, import accounting data from QuickBooks, or query corporate databases without using ODBC drivers. With XML export, FileMaker Pro 6 users can share information with users of other applications. For example, users can export formatted FileMaker data in an attachment to an email, into Microsoft Excel, or into document-authoring applications. Please see FileMaker XML Central on the FileMaker, Inc. Website at: http://www.filemaker.com for more information about XML and FileMaker.
