EveryWare Development Corp. today announced shipment of the latest version of Tango. With this version, the popular Intranet Rapid Application Development tool provides the smoothest ever Web/database integration with FileMaker Pro 3.0 for Macintosh, the easy to use relational database from Claris Corporation. The new release of Tango for FileMaker premiered last week at "WebEdge" to an audience of programmers and developers at Apple Computer's Research and Development site in Cupertino.

Leveraging its popular graphical interface, Tango provides users with the ability to easily publish data from their FileMaker Pro 3.0 for Macintosh databases to a Web site without having to write a CGI (Common Gateway Interface) in C/C++, Perl or AppleScript. Tango makes Web application development very easy allowing even novice Web developers to quickly design dynamic Web-based applications that utilize Tango's performance features, providing fast access to FileMaker Pro data.

Tango for FileMaker offers Web developers an intuitive easy-to-use, visual drag and drop development environment as well as the tools needed to develop sophisticated Web-based applications. Webmasters can also easily upgrade to Tango Pro, which allows them to integrate their solutions with Oracle, SQL Server and other ODBC compliant databases without reworking their applications.

"Tango for FileMaker is our most popular release to date. Finally, the large installed base of FileMaker Pro users will have the ability to harness the power and flexibility of Tango when developing Web-based applications," said Dan McKenzie, president of EveryWare Development Corp.

"We're very excited about EveryWare's new Tango offering. It's a key product that FileMaker Pro 3.0 users looking to easily publish databases on the Web should have," said Jon Perr, vice president worldwide product marketing, Claris Corporation. "We're very happy to see an ever-broadening base of FileMaker 3.0 for Macintosh Web-enabling products such as Tango, and we're looking forward to future offerings from EveryWare Development Corp."

Tango enables Rapid Development of Web-based Solutions and provides FileMaker Pro 3.0 for Macintosh users with the ability to design database integrated Web site solutions such as:

- corporate directories, - online shopping, - conferencing/BBS systems, - online registration systems, and - product & pricing catalogs.

"This new connectivity tool is specifically optimized for FileMaker 3.0 for Macintosh using the multi-threaded technology originally developed for Tango 1.5. We have had overwhelming demand for this product and we are very happy to provide FileMaker Pro 3.0 for Macintosh users with an easy-to-use Rapid Application Development tool designed specifically for creating Web-based applications," said Don Reith, director of product management, EveryWare Development Corp.
