1. 4D Summit 2009 Weekly Digest
Important Dates are Coming Ever So Fast!

Just a reminder that early-bird registration prices and reduced hotel
rates will end soon. Live 4D v11 SQL demonstrations, the in-depth
sessions led by 4D Staff and presenters, and the numerous opportunities
to network and chat with fellow 4D developers are some of the compelling
reasons why attending the Summit is so important.

Early-bird registration ends on August 28th. That's also when hotel
prices will increase from the discounted rate of $179 per night.

4D Partners: Create your own Tech Tips and make it YOUR Knowledgebase

Did you know there is the new functionality that lets 4D Partners
virtually build their own 4D Knowledgebase? It's a great way to show off
4D tips and tricks or even promote a new 4D related product.

Now 4D Partners can add their own Tech Tips, ranging from technical
topics on 4D development, to products or plug-ins relating to 4D.

Once created, the entire 4D community will be able to view these Tech
Tips and other 4D Partners can comment and post responses.

Become a 4D Partner and build your knowledgebase today.

This week's topic: Quick Report Wizard - Part 1

Reports represent one of the most important functions in data
management. A Quick Report is the ideal way to offer your users the
possibility of creating their own reports to extend the custom reporting
capabilities of your application. This Technical Note revisits creating
a custom interface for Quick Reports using 4D v11 SQL commands.

Part I of this Technical Note focuses on the interface and functionality
of the Quick Report Wizard. Part II will focus on the implementation and
programming of the sample database.

This is only a sample of the many valuable Tech Notes that are available
to 4D Partners in the 4D Knowledgebase. There are many more advantages
to becoming a 4D Partner. Visit 4D Partner Central for more information.
