Hello friends,
Is there a reason why - apart from a lack of time - nobody is seriously interested in HTML as a report definition language here?
Sometimes you yourself believe that something is good and overlook things in the process.
I look forward to your feedback.
Best regards,
Otto
I am not very much clear about the concept of HTML report.
The tools required to create the HTML report ?
The tools required to view/display the HTML report inside the FiveWin application ? Maybe using Shellexecute( NIL, "open", cHtmlFile )
From the scattered information available in this forum, what I understand is that we have to prepare a template in html format first (maybe using Word or some HTML editors) and later from the application we replace the data using StrTran() in the HTML file. If it is so, how do we prepare an invoice in HTML where the number of line items are dynamic ? (May be inserting a whole table itself onto the HTML )
I am not sure whether I understood the concept correctly
Hello Otto,
Thank you very much for your efforts, but I don't see it useful. The customer wants to be able to customize reports and documents. That is what a WYSIWYG type editor like Word, Easy Report or FastReport allows. That is the dominant direction of the FWH community.
Thank you.

Hello Enrico,
I am sorry I was too fast with my answer.
I deleted my post.
I read your post again, and you write "At least to me".
OK.
Best regards,

Hello Otto,
Our users have been doing this for many years with FastReport. The problem is that it does not work on 64-bit applications and we would like to have technological sovereignty over all our source code.
Regards
