Are there any other report writers out there that are compatible with Ingres? The Ingres report writer just doesn't seem to do what we want. (One example, displaying subtotals and then percentages at the end of the group. There doesn't seem to be a way to create independant variables). We already have the data on an Amdahl under Ingres, so buying a second DBMS is too expensive for this modest project (unless we change computers). steve roush AT&T drutx!csr 303-538-4860

You might want to take a look at FOCUS. The demo was very impressive. We didn't follow up on this because we (generally) have enough resources to write embedded code to do what ReportWriter is slow at or cannot do at all. Bruce
