>>>Hi,
>>>
>>> I heard of Crystal Report long ago. But had not tried it before. The one in the Visual studio 97 had lot of features taken out.
>>>
>>> 1)Is it true that it is the best report third party program out there.
>>> 2)Can it directly access Vfp dbf files and allow my customer to select the kind of report that they want like able to choose which
>>>fields to include/ Sum data fields/ Do SQL command like Vfp report do without us to do it ourself.
>>>
>>> Any suggestion or advise is very much appreciated. Thank you.
>>Hello Virusim,
>>
>> I agree with Joy on Crystal. I've tried them all...Foxfire, Query Manager, R & R, etc. I strongly recommend Crystal to my clients. Accounting folks are usually impressed with the Drill-down capabilities. (among other features).
>>
>>Good Luck!

Absolutely!!!
