>yes i would like to see foxpro move towards oop reporting. i'm new to oop (from cobol background) but it seems to me that the foxpro report is just a black box without much control given to the developer.

I think right now it's just a tool to write reports without ability to manipulate objects, like we can do in form. It's a little inconvenient, what's why it would be great, if somebody (like Robert) can add this functionality.
