The Visual FoxPro Report Writer -- Part 1
-----------------------------------------
The next version of VFP has some long-awaited changes to the Report Writer. In this session, you'll see many of the new reporting features and enhancements of Visual FoxPro 9.0, including the new UI, multiple-detail bands, data environments, protection, and much more. With so much that is new in VFP 9, this session continues in Part 2.
The Visual FoxPro Report Writer -- Part 2
-----------------------------------------
The VFP 9 Report Writer has so many new things that it takes two sessions to present them all. Continuing where Part 1 leaves off, you'll examine the extensibility features in more detail. You'll explore real-world examples of what you can do with all the new reporting features in Visual FoxPro 9.0. You'll learn how to create XML, HTML, and TIFF output. You'll also learn how to dynamically change font colors, rotate text, change the font size, force pagination when you want it, create x-up forms, and how to print bar charts. This session is loaded with information on how to push the extensibility beyond the limits.
- Anything else people want to talk about.
Whitepapers can be reviewed in advance. For more information, check out the two new articles by Cathy Pountney. The links are on Ken Levy's Blog at

Hope to see you there.
