Hi Bryan,
I'm (still) using the R&R Report Generator from :
Concentric Data Systems, Inc.
110 Turnpike Road
Westborough, MA 01581
Phone : 508-366.11.22
(I hope they haven't moved out ...)
They sell both a DOS- and a Windows-version.
I'm only using the DOS-version, I do NOT know
how the Windows-version works or looks like ...
Very (!) good, nice and I.M.H.O intuitive ...
- VERY good Help-facilities
- It's almost impossible to do something wrong :
the reporter is assisting you by ONLY showing you
the possible options.
- CDX, IDX, NTX, NSX (Six !!!) index-support
- VERY FAST !
- Within the DOS-version a lot of printers are
supported ! (the Windows-version of course
uses the Windows-printer-settings ...)
- nice WYSIWYG-Preview option
- CHEAP (??) : I payed about 550,-- Dutch Guilders
(about $250, but probably the price over there
would be less)
Hope this helps !
Regards,
Arjan Hijstek, from the Netherlands !
