Use this album to store pictures of family and friends, just like a traditional photo album. You can even include descriptions, titles, QuickTime movies, and sound.
How to use this solution
Before you can start you need to have your photographs in a digital format. The following represents three possible ways:
1. Take your pictures or film to a copy center or photo lab where they may have the facilities to scan photos or develop your film and save it to disk or CD.
2. Use y
our video camera to record a movie or moment and transfer this to disk. You will need the appropriate hardware and software to do this, or go to a service bureau such as a copy center or photo lab. See your local computer store for more information.
3. Use a digital camera!
Once you have the picture you're ready to start. For details on importing pictures, see the FileMaker Pro documentation.
How to customize this solution
Add a new field called Sound and set the type to Container.
Place this field on the Form View layout. Then enter Browse mode, click in the field, and record a message to go with the picture. In order to record a sound, your computer must have an internal or external microphone.
