Hi Thore !
Thanks

>Hi Jozef,

>Yes, I recommend it strongly. It is not cheap, but you really get what you pay for. You can download it from http://www.mindseyeinc.com/ReportEngine/index.htm. The demo version is in fact the complete version, only with some hard-coded watermarks. Once you buy it, you can include it into the applications you make without any extra cost. Plus the support is top!

>But be aware that you can also find much cheaper solutions to get VFP to make PDF files. If you enter PDF into UT's search engine, you will find mant threads.

>To be honest, if putting PDF into VFP9 was a few days work, I also would have it built in. But since building it in would mean long delays and/or cutting down on other features, I prefer not to have it in the package.

>>Hi Tore !
>>For me the decision (not to support PDF) means that I have to buy another product. I have to spend my money (and my time to choose the right one).
>>Maybe third party developer will enjoy it - I will not - for sure.

>>BTW It seems that I'll have take a look at Rich Simpson's Mind's Eye Report Engine Control. Do you recomend it ?

>>>Hi Jozef,

>>>Every coin has a flip side. One thing Microsoft always must consider is why re-invent the wheel if that means they will kill third party vendors. What is most important, making new features or killing makers of tools which already has the new features. Quite honestly, I think Microsoft has chosen the right decision.

>>>NB! Myself I use Rich Simpson's Mind's Eye Report Engine Control, it has much more features than Microsoft will ever put into VFP. I will be surprised if Rich will not be among the first to take advantage of the new reporter hooks in VFP9.

>>>Just my $0.02 :-)
