>>English Query allows users to query using real English. Things like "Show me the sales totals for the country summed by state".

>Oh cool! What kind of output options do you have on the resulting data set? What kind of access to the interface for this feature can I give my users? In otherwords, is this something I can allow my users to use over the network or is it only available locally on the server itself? My implementation plan includes putting one of the 3rd Party Fox Products in place for adhoc query/reporting over the department's LAN once I get the custom apps into production, I'm thinking maybe this English Query feature is something I can look at instead. And thanks for the info =D)
You can put it on the network...or on a web server.
