From: Willie Moore on 22 Oct 2009 17:09 Ginny, It isn't bad. I prefer it to some of the commercial writers. Plus, with it being based on Reporting Services and written in C#, it should be fairly easy to integrate.

I've downloaded it, so I'll stick it in one of my executables someplace and let my staff have at it. ;-) -- Ginny Caughey www.wasteworks.com "Willie Moore" <williem(a)wmconsulting.com> wrote in message news:hbqhln$knv$1(a)aioe.org... > Ginny, > > It isn't bad.

Ginny I know that reportpro2x has been around for a very long time. But then so has the harrier jump jet fighter - about as long as reportpro The fact is that they were both way ahead of their time, and still perform extraordinarily well. Crystal reports designer USED to be linked to Pegasus Capital Gold accounting system. My Pegasus clients decided that they would not purchase Crystal reports, so they still have one machine with the linked in report designer - which gets used religously once a month to update statements and invoice layouts. I have spent hours looking at alternatives, but from an engineering stand point none of them are any easier to use nor easier to design in or ... richard ps my local pub is part of a mega chain ... and guess what ? - the tills are operated by a dos programme with a touch screen written in clipper. IT WORKS FAST - so the customers get served faster .... has a local ads server {just an nt box in the pub used by the manager} and it all reports back to the advantage server in head office accounts dept .... only about 14,000 pubs ... |
