Filemaker has a comparison PDF that quickly shows the differences between all of their versions for the past 10 years. The only new features they list since 8.5 are:
FileMaker Quick Start Screen Conditional Formatting Send Database Link Through Email Append to PDF Connect to External SQL Data Sources Script Grouping and Editing Tools Auto-Resize Layout Objects Works with Windows Vista Seems like working with current operating systems, ought to be an update, though, and a given. Calling it a new feature to pad the feature list seems a stretch. Nothing there is compelling enough for me to part with the upgrade price of $300, so I'll stick with 8.5 Adv.
