Hello friends,
Switching the desktop to the online program
I'll show you briefly how we solve the printing problem.
In the first video you can see how quickly a report is created and in the second video how little source code has to be changed in the desktop version.
You can continue to use the tested and proven desktop version online.

We use "FastReport" in many of our reports.
"FastReport" is similar to L&L in terms of functionality.
Now you can set "FastReport" to generate a PDF in "silent mode".
On our web servers, we have installed our "Grafton Street local host server" in addition to APACHE.
If, for example, reports are requested from the web, the localhost server forwards the request to the existing desktop programs and passes the necessary parameters in the request: Time, report, etc.
The desktop program is started and immediately opens the corresponding function and creates the PDF.
The PDF is displayed by the online program.
Here you see the web server via RemoteDesktop.
You see how the "Grafton Street Server" answers the query. The desktop "accounting system" is opened, and the PDF is created immediately.
The program then closes immediately.
For reports that are hard-coded, we use the PDFCreator printer driver.
Best regards,
Otto
