Brushfire™ Cross-Reference and Reporting Tool Allows FileMaker Pro Users To Quickly and Completely Analyze Scripts.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Santa Monica, California - August 8, 2001. FileMaker® Pro users will be able to analyze their database solutions more quickly than ever before with a new application called Brushfire™. Brushfire easily produces cross-reference script reports that allow intermediate and advanced FileMaker Pro users to debug, clean-up, and document their solutions. Written in C++ for speed, the Brushfire™ engine typically analyzes complex multiple file solutions in less than a minute, making Brushfire™ the fastest analyzing tool developed for the FileMaker Pro user.

Developed by Chaparral Software & Consulting Services, Inc., a leading FileMaker consulting firm, Brushfire rapidly organizes script details, cross-reference information, and errors from all files of a solution into easily usable and intuitive HTML pages.
