I've been using a product called JAM, it does just what you said. It alows math on fields, allows printing of screens and about a bazillion other things!!! I don't want to go into great detail here, but I looked at a few different packages and this wat the BEST. JAM - JYACC Application Manager JYACC Inc. (Somewhere in New York) 800-458-3313 They have DOS demo's to show you how it works. They run on about 8 or 9 operating systems (including Unix) and about 70 hardware platforms. It has a C programming interface (you don't have to use it). It has extensive prototype capabilities... Tom Armistead Any usual disclaimers apply...

I'm looking for a program that can be used to design forms
on the Unix system. The program should be able to do math and other
calculations. I't should allow you to design any type of form and print
the form(sideways if possible) with no problems.
We've been looking for just such a beast. We've found a few that may
be appropriate for your needs.

The first two advertize in Unix world or Unix Review. There was a
review in April's Unix Review of these two packages.
All three have nifty dos demos that show what they can do. They all
have versions for dos, unix, xenix, and others. We wanted one that had
a QNX version. Only Cscape seems to have this. Check them out, they
all look good. They are all reasonably priced.
