About our web seminars

"I am very excited to present these live weekly seminars. If you've never been to one of my web seminars before, they are a bit different. I fluctuate the content based on who is present, and what you most want to learn. It is not a canned presentation, nor a sales presentation. That being said, I DO want you as a customer, but I will let you decide on that."

Description
Alpha Five Open Discussion

Designed really for anyone - new users and those evaluating the product as well as experts. The seminar is completely spontaneous and designed to handle questions and topics most relevant to the audience. In the process, every one learns and we generally cover the main areas of both Desktop and Web development. Sometimes, if time permits, we dive in to a particular users application and resolve specific issues. Phrases such as "Oh, WOW" and "That's completely amazing" are often heard. Here are some topics:

  • Basic steps to create a database application
  • Tables, Field Rules, Indexes
  • Forms, Reports and Operations
  • Form Field objects (tabs, dropdown lists, etc.)
  • Action Scripting and Xbasic
  • Other Alpha resources like Spell Check, PDF Tools, Export to Excel, Mail Merge and others.
  • Basic steps to create a web application
  • Components
  • Navigation menus
  • Web Pages (A5W pages)
  • Publishing and deployment concepts
  • Web Security
Alpha Advanced Designed only for advanced Alpha Five developers to discuss concepts, feature, methodology, etc. Bring your favorite application for a debugging session or show-and-tell. The presenter will facilitate the discussion and use Remote Webinar technology to transfer view and control to whoever has the floor.
