 PROFILE
Not to split hairs, but it's really more of a file "manager". A subsidiary of Apple Computer, FileMaker (formerly Claris) makes one of the leading PC database software programs, FileMaker Pro. FileMaker's line, which is sold to both the Apple Macintosh and Microsoft Windows markets, is used to create, manage, and distribute databases. FileMaker Pro makes it possible for multiple users to access and exchange information instantaneously over corporate intranets or the Internet. The company was renamed after Apple took over the unit's other software lines to augment its own operations, letting FileMaker focus on the database business.
