Dave,

The Ad in JavaPro is for Report Mill not ReportLab. My error, sorry for any
confusion.

I mistaken the two as we use to develop in NeXT and Openstep (now Max OS
10.x) and ReportMill was one of the reporting tools available on that
platform. 

Just a note about their tool - and I would like to get feedback from anyone
using it - It is the only reporting engine to actually run from your Objects
and not SQL - which is an amazing paradigm shift for OO developers.
Reportmill leeches the report from your objects directly and has a layout
engine to assist with publishing to a template.

Because it is a Java Jar one will be able to use it form CFMX - but it
remains to be seen if they have first rate support for CF CFC's per se.

Regards,
Hardy

Sounds great. I think that the only CF-compatibility ReportLab has is using
CF to generate the RML (which is what we do). The engine itself is written
in Python. But again, I appreciate any info you might have.

Dave.
