I don't use it but I have looked at it.

>1) Can you use it as a report writer?

You possibly could, but it is most definately not a report writer/generator. At its simplest, its an text editing control. At its best, its a mini-word processor.

>2) Can you show graps in it (like MS Graph)?

I don't know.

>3) Is it stable?

It is at version 9 so that would suggest it should be stable. I would advise looking at the forum at www.textcontrol.com and seeing what the gripes and problems are from existing users.

>4) How does it handle "blank lines" (They are empty in our own Report writer.)

A blank line is a blank line. How does Word handle blank lines - there is your answer. Behaviour like skipping a line if it is empty is a report writer feature like, VFP's report writer. From what you are saying, this is probably the wrong product for what appears to be mostly a reporting requirement.

However, Soft Classic's VisualDocuments with the TX Control is another matter. VisualDocuments has all the features of a report writer (and more) but is very controlable and has a printer object that specifically hooks into the TX control. So, you could get the flexible reporting attributes of VisDocs which would ouput into and through TX and, have a form based word processing control.

I am a Codemine/VisualDocuments user. I use VisDocs with Word2000 but, I am considering TX. It is just very expensive for what it is IMHO. Crystal Report may be another one worth considering.

HTH.
