Using InspectorPro 5 with FileMaker Pro Advanced 14


FileMaker 14 is here, and while the Database Design Report (DDR) hasn’t changed, here’s a “Getting Started’ walkthrough for using InspectorPro with the latest version of FileMaker Pro Advanced.

To  generate a DDR, go into your FileMaker solution and select ‘Database Design Report’ under ‘Tools’.


Select the ‘XML’ report format, and uncheck the ‘Automatically open report when done’ checkbox.

Now open up InspectorPro 5 and on the top left hit the green ‘+’ arrow next to solutions and give it a name.

On the top right hit the green arrow to import your DDR, give the analysis a name and hit import.

Select ‘Summary.xml’ and hit insert, InspectorPro will begin parsing your DDR.

After this completes, you’re ready to start analyzing your system!

Check out our InspectorPro 5 video tutorials and join us next Wednesday, May 20th at 11AM PST for a live 1 hour demo of InspectorPro 5.
