Employ Date Ranges with Confidence

    A mini-calendar that does the heavy lifting while looking great

FileMaker 9-12 Compatible

Handling dates, especially date ranges, can be tricky. FileMaker’s built in pop-up calendar is a good step in that your users don’t need to type in dates by hand, but it isn’t as friendly as the persistent date selectors available, for example, on travelocity’s web site, or in Google analytics. Those sites use persistent mini-calendars so that users can see which dates and date ranges they’ve selected.

Now NinjaCal makes it easy to get use the same kind of mini calendars in your FileMaker solutions. And you can use NinjaCal both to *select* dates, and to *reveal* the dates represented in your data.


Thank you! Thank you!
It was very simple. You have given me the answer I’ve been needing for years! NinjaCal is really ingenious, and it is explained very well.

        Selecting Dates & Date Ranges

NinjaCal gives you a persistent, visual method for selecting dates. Click on a date and it is recorded both in a Global field and in a Global Variable, so that you can use the date in scripts. You can also select date ranges by shift-clicking on a second date and the range of dates between them will be selected. Again, the selected dates are passed to a global variable so that you can use the dates in scripts, to perform searches, or to filter portals (see Portal Filtering below).

You can even select a number of discontinuous dates by Cntrl-clicking on dates in NinjaCal. And if one month isn’t enough to show the ranges of dates you’re looking for, you can show two or three months at a time. Try that with FileMaker’s built in date picker.

New Year View. NinjaCal even offers a 12 month view for selecting L O N G ranges or for revealing a year’s worth of busy dates (see "Revealing Dates" below).

        Portal Filtering

NinjaCal’s example file shows you how to use the dates selected in NinjaCal to filter a portal using date ranges. This is especially nice for your users since they can see the range of dates selected beside the portal you’re filtering. This filtering example works with single dates, date ranges, or discontiguous dates.

        Revealing Dates

You can also send NinjaCal a list of dates to display, allowing you to get a quick picture of all the dates represented in your data. Sample scripts in NinjaCal show you how to take a found set (or portal) of records and display their dates in NinjaCal.

For example, if you were running a resort you could find all the reservations in your honeymoon suite and send their dates to NinjaCal: all the dates not shown as "blocked out" are now the dates on which you can take new reservations.

        Easily Change the Look and Feel

NinjaCal is built with simple FileMaker objects that can be stretched, resized, and manipulated as you see fit. You can change the fonts, colors, and size of NinjaCal to fit the look and feel of your own file.

And of course NinjaCal supports international date formats along with the ability to start the week on Monday. Built-in documentation exaplains how it all works.



I just wanted to let you know that the $199 I paid for the Developer License may well be the best $199 I have ever spent in my entire life. I love this functionality and the fact that you have made it so easy to integrate and use.
