Crystal Reports overcomes many of the limitations of the VFP report designer. Some of the advantages are: Output to multiple formats, including Word, Excel, PDF, and RTF, zooming preview to more than 100%, multiple detail bands. For more information on Crystal Reports, see www.crystaldecisions.net. There is also a whitepaper on my web site that will help you get started.
