Brian, That's exactly what it means. No template. No Adobe brand products installed on your server. Just R:Base 7.0 and R:Tango. Any report-to- file that you can create with the new R:Base print command options can be generated from your web application. I'll show you how at the conference, and the conference CD will give you some ready-made tools.
The web user fills out the form from which the WHERE clause gets built, picks the file type (PDF, HTML, RTF, all those graphic formats, etc.), and pushes the SUBMIT button, and a second or two later, the R:Base report appears in the browser, printable saveable, etc. By the way, I'm pretty sure that the amazingly simple little stored procedure and simple little R:Base command file that make this work, would also work from any other ODBC connection, too, as long as R:Base 7.0 is also installed on the computer generating the report. See you at the conference!
