Title:
Creating Reports with VFP or ?
I have a large (176 forms) ASP project that I have been working on for about 14 months. The client has just decided they must have some reasonably complex reports. There is a lot of information on a report page. I am trying to find a tool to give me what I want.
We are using Windows 2000, ASP 2.0 (Visual Interdev 6.0) and SQL Server 2000. These are corporate tools.
A few weeks ago I attended an ASP.NET training session and the instructor mentioned, “You can add an ASP.NET form to ASP”.
I fired up Visual Studio .NET and created a report using the supplied Crystal Reports. This will not allow me to get all the information on the report and seems like a waste of time.
I then used VFP and had no problem creating the desired report. I even have a front end to the report to allow the user to add dates of interest and other desired information to get the specific information desired.
Here are my questions:
1. Can I use reports created using Visual FoxPro for an ASP web application?
2. If not how about ASP.NET? A VFP form front end will run the report.
3. Would this be a “Web Service”?
Any suggestions will be appreciated!
