About MacConsulting

The goal is to develop a system that meets your needs, contains the data desired by the client, and is easily updated and maintained. These are the goals of well designed systems: to make it easy to update and maintain content with a custom content management system using a range of  up-to-date tools and advanced techniques.

I have been doing database programming for over 21 years. I have been consulting full time with FileMaker Pro since 1998. I have extensive experience with FileMaker Pro versions 17 (and previous versions), MySQL integration, and an expert in many other business applications.  I have experience in a wide range of operations helping to give a unique insight into the database needs of a organization. At each of the positions I have set up and deployed FileMaker solutions for such needs as Net Administration, Development, Research, Nonprofit activities, and Project Tracking and more.  

I have used my custom template ContactZ(TM) as the basis for many successful projects. My expertise extends beyond Filemaker into many other technologies including: 

    Scanning

    Bar codes

    Web integration

    Accounting

    Report automation

    FM server setup

I work with existing projects to enhance and upgrade them to take the full advantage of the relational and interface features of FileMaker Pro as well as develop from scratch original custom systems to meet client needs. 

Projects I’ve developed:

      Medical history and Patient Care management systems

      Hazardous Chemical Inventory and Removal systems 

      National Garden Club competitions and website

      Donation  for Festival Opera of Walnut Creek

      Integrate Web based bike sales and inventory database
