You could end up spending quite a bit of time reinventing the wheel. These products have been around for a few years and have thousands of development hours poured into them.

I appreciate your advice and I am also aware of those products, but just for creating reports, each and every one can not afford to buy this, what I am creating is a report class, the questions of which have been emerging here time to time. Off course, It will be first of all uploaded in the file area, where other users can also use it.

I have made a similar kind of routine in Foxpro 2.6, where it gives facility to the user to select fields, set filters and it can transfer report output to Grid, Screen, Printer, File, Excel. Offcourse, the reports were only limited to text output.

But at that time, I manually wrote the routines, after seeing the powers of Visual Foxpro compared to 2.6, I planned to convert my same project, anyway, I thank you for your reply.
