Archive Toolbox

From Two Southpaws, Inc.:

The Archive Toolbox is a FileMaker Pro plug-in that enables users to create and expand archive files within FileMaker Pro solutions.

Archive Toolbox 1.0.1 supports the creation and expansion of two popular archive file formats: StuffIt� (.sit) and Zip (.zip). To secure you data inside an archive, use the optional password feature of the "ATbox-Stuff" function.

"Developers now have the power of archive creation that is available cross-platform," said Jeff Hough, Principal, of Sitecraft. "Archive Toolbox 1.0.1 requires no system resources such as batch files or AppleScript� to create or expand archive files. It does it on its own."

FileMaker Pro Developers who have tried Archive Toolbox 1.0.1 have enjoyed the plug-in features and its ease of use.

• Create archive files without external scripting
