Reports & Report designer
I use it a lot from VFP apps and find it to be quite capable. Its a product with a LOT of depth at this point.
It has so many features that it takes a bit of learning ... but I'm sure you'd
pick it up rapidly.
I most like the embedded chart capabilities, sub-report capabilities, and the drill-down feature.

These groups of data as far as the system is concerned are related., eg, A Client may have one or more vehicle(s) that may have one or more driver(s) who may have accidents/convictions etc.,
