Hello Andy -
Yes. To betatest SignBank 2002, you do need FileMaker Pro 5.0 or
later installed on your computer. Apparently there is a 30-day free
trial of FileMaker for download:

http://www.FileMaker.com/downloads

In the Fall, we will post a SignBank RunTime version, as shareware.
Runtime is the name of the FileMaker program that makes it possible
to use FileMaker databases, without owning FileMaker...so in the Fall
you will be able to use SignBank without FileMaker.

Serious SignBank users should have FileMaker, however, since there
are more features, if you have FileMaker -
