Thanks for the reply Cheng (nothing at all wrong with your English - 99/100 :-)) FR certainly sounds interesting. Do you know whether it can handle Crosstab reports? QR Claims to, but only gives a super simple example (a single row of data with each cell filled). Have a client site who "really would like" a particular report in CrossTab format. Cheers Mark
