Books and manuals can be helpful, but they sometimes can be a bit tunnel visioned. There may well be other better ways to achieve something. They also become out-of-date quite quickly, which is why web-based resources and forums are often a better option since they can be more easily and quickly updated. There's also the fact that even things such as the samples and templates that shipped with early versions FileMaker Pro itself were *very* badly made and buggy (I haven't looked at what comes with more recent versions) which can cause extra problems for people.
