Report generator

[Gale FORd]

I use R&R all the time.

To change the data location you need to use a control file. With it you change the database location and name while maintaining the alias.

I also create temporary data files and use the original database name as the alias the report does not show any errors.

Otto,

I looked at EasyReport and it looked good. However, I already had a great number of legacy reports already done with the R&R designer and its Clipper code generator. This R&R system worked well for me, so I didn't consider changing to EasyReport, though it may be a useful product.

Hi all,
I solved all my report problems using Fast Report and I have converted more then 400 report to this new system in just 3 weeks.

The biggest feature of Fast Report is (in my opinion) the possibility to exeport all report in Excel, Word, OpenOffice Writer, OpenOffice Calc with a simple mouse click and a FWH class is provided to manage it. It is also self-contained in a single dll.

Samples are availables at www.paritetsoft.ru that is the company that developed the FWH interface.

If you want you can take a look at this video where my distributor explain to customers how the print system runs. It is in italian but you can easy understand seeing the screenshot.
