G'day all,

A Press Release is attached for our new FileMaker update manager tool.  It's our first new product release since BaseElements and we think it's pretty cool.  I hope you'll give it a try and if you're going to be at DevCon, come and see us and see it in action.

Thanks,
Nick

Melbourne, Australia - July 30, 2011 - Goya Pty Ltd is excited to announce the release of their FileMaker Update Manager tool, RefreshFM to complement BaseElements, their highly regarded solution analysis tool. RefreshFM is the only commercial developer tool available that builds, runs and manages an import process for FileMaker solutions and lets developers update from old, live versions to a new development version with minimal intervention and complete control.

RefreshFM lets you build a complete update process for a FileMaker solution, and run that import at any time. This allows you to have a fast, well managed, completely error checked upgrade process for your solutions in the shortest possible time frame.

RefreshFM features :
* Complete solution integration, no items are missed
* All tables are included, all serial fields are identified and set
* Every step is error checked and confirmed before continuing
* It requires no modification to either the new or old files.

By taking advantage of an update process using RefreshFM, developers are able to :
* Have imports run in the least possible amount of time
* Deliver a new version via a single update file, regardless of the number of solution files
* Test the import process in advance and confirm all aspects of it are according to plan
* Test the import as many times as required without having to re-do any work
* Back out of any import process with a single click and revert to pre-update versions
* Create a new update process from scratch any time, in a matter of minutes

"We're really exited about this product. We've been using it with our own clients for a long time now, and the ability to deliver updates with a minmum of effort is not only a huge time saver, but also takes all of the stress out of our update process. We wouldn't do an update without it any more." said Goya developer, Darrin Southern.

Developers who are attending the FileMaker Developer Conference in San Diego can see a copy of RefreshFM in action by visiting the Goya booth at the Exhibitor Hall.
