Craig, 1 in 10,000 sounds like a pretty large number. My data structure for one app has company related to address and contact (multiple children), which is a pretty standard way to do things. About 10 reports use all three of these tables (and therefore, multiple linked subreports). At this rate, you're saying that there are 1,000,000 other reports out there, none of which use this feature (which has been on a lot of Fox Report Writer wish lists that I've seen).
Now obviously I'm playing silly-buggers with the numbers, but my point is that this feature is powerful and useful, and that people should be encouraged to explore and use it.
(Walter, I've cc'd you on this one because from your CR posts I reckon that you'd be likely to be using the feature).
Cheers,
Andrew

If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
