About this Article:

Learn how to build a modular, self-contained, reusable menu system using the power of custom functions.

Scott Love is one of four partners at Soliant Consulting and manages its California office. With more than a decade of experience, he's authored books and articles on FileMaker, is an authorized trainer, a DevCon speaker, a certified developer, and thinks there's no shame in submitting a bug report about a pixel being out of place.
