I've created some reports by automating Word, and the user's are accustomed to being able to "play with" the formatting, add text here and there, etc., before printing. However, some users have "issues" with Word on their machines. I'm looking for a replacement. Creating HTML reports is easy, but the users don't like them. -- Download the latest draft (version 1.22, updated 9/5/2005) of "STILL CASTING SHADOWS: Two American Families 1620-2006" by Blackbird Crow Raven: http://cc.borland.com/ccweb.exe/listing?id=23106 Back to top Mike Shkolnik Guest Posted: Thu Sep 08, 2005 2:54 pm    Post subject: Re: Report tool that generates editable reports Quote: However, some users have "issues" with Word on their machines.
