Barry, Depends on what your trying to do, but a good option might be to create some java classes that integrate with Itext that you can call from Coldfusion. Depends if you want to get your hands dirty with Java I guess, but there are a lot of resources on creating documents with Itext. Cheers Gareth.

No, it has no connection with Crystal that I know of, and certainly you're being at CF6.1, it just won't work for you. Hope you find a good solution. If you're on a windows machine, perhaps consider SQL Server Reporting Services. You ask what big businesses would use, and that's one end of the spectrum. Another would be open source solutions like JasperReports, JFreeReport, Eclipse BIRT, Datavision, and so on. /charlie -Original Message- From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scott Thornton Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2008 9:26 PM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] Web Reporting Hi Charlie, I had not considered the report builder that comes with 7 and 8.

It's still as valuable today as then: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/xmlxslt.pdf Oh, and Paul, if you happen to be on CF 7 or 8, you can skip the CFFILE step.

The subscription gives you unlimited access to all online books (that's most of the current published books) and to Rough Cuts, books that are in the process of being edited before publication. Because these are paid subscriptions, there is possibility to add in the standard 14-day free trial (which I'm currently confirming) to make that a total of 44 days before you need to decide if you want to renew the subscription. But to be in the running for these prizes, you'll need to register (by 9am tomorrow) and be present when the prize is drawn.

[cfaussie] Re: Dev Tools and toys
Sean, if you're doing Fusebox and you like working visually at the design/architecture stage, there is a free schematic designer at http://www.adalon.net/index.jsp. Upside is it's free. (Free, not open source). Downside is it's end- of-life, no further development will be done on it. I believe some of the definition files are accessible, so it would probably be possible to take it forward, not sure. Even so, I've used it for years and in spite of a few wrinkles, it's very serviceable.
