Apologies for cross postings

I would like to know who uses FileMaker Pro (FMP) in their archives
and in what capacity.  I am aware of Kenneth Breau's application of
FMP for the photo collection at the Université of Moncton Archives,
due to his posting on the listserv on March 23/00.  Also, I know the
JJ Talman Regional Collection, University of Western Ontario, has
recently started using FMP for their photo and postcard collections.
I have developed records retention schedules with FMP.  Has anyone
made up an actual inventory or finding aid with this software?  Has
anyone used it on a Mac?  Any cross-platform (PC/Mac) experiences
with FMP?  Pls advise.  Thanks.
