FileMaker Pro plug-in which allows for storing and reading application-wide global variables and persistent system-wide preferences. Preferences remain stored on the user's hard disk, so they can be accessed by multiple applications. Useful especially for solutions designed to be launched directly from CD-ROM. Global variables created with this plug-in are shared by all databases within one application, so you don't have to use any special global fields or relationships. Useful also for indication of multiple copies of the same database being opened.
To disable the plug-in's shareware reminder, evaluate the following function before using the plug-in:
* External("24uP-Register"; "Prefs-O-Rama")
Application-wide globals
* Create your own global variables on-the-fly
* Access your globals from any database within the same application
* No need for global fields and relationships
* Prevent opening multiple copies of the same database
Custom preferences
* Save your custom preferences on user's hard disk even when running from CD-ROM
* Share the same preferences across multiple applications
* Let your customers to keep their preferences when upgrading to new versions of your solution
* Implement serial number Protection in minutes
