>What is the best way to create/distribute new reports for existing app for remote clients? I have a client who constantly asks me to create new reports for an app I developed. When the report gets little complicated with table joins etc., I try to create local views to use in the reports. However, after I finish creating the report, I have to remotely upload the report files AND recreate the local view on the clients computer.

IMHO, the better way is not to use views for reporting purposes. Views are just too bulky for this. Obviously, you don't need in buffering, etc. here. So, just create report cursor programmatically and upload new exe file to your client.
