[NPL] Troi File Plug-in 1.2b2

Alphen a/d Rijn, The Netherlands, June 18, 1998 -- Troi Automatisering announces the availability of Troi File Plug-in 1.2b2, for FileMaker Pro 4.0 both on Macintosh and Windows. This file manipulation plug-in now also can list the contents of folders and open files with other applications. We've added some great examples demonstrating useful techniques (including how to import multiple images). Peter Baanen, company president, states that "The ability to list files in a directory was requested by a lot of users, and opens a lot of new possibilities. We've also removed the startup flash screen, so that you can start up more quickly". This 1.2b2 version differs slightly from the 1.2b1 version (of 12 June). The launch function returns more detailed error codes; you can now also detect if a disk is offline. We invite you to test drive the new functions and see what _you_ can do with it! A fully functional version of this beta version of Troi File Plug-in 1.2b1 is available for...
