Re: [flexcoders] Printing and PDF creation
Hmm, well I¹m with the fellow here in another post that stated Flex will not be enterprise ready until it can create reports within the app. This is a basic business practice and should not be some convoluted, insanely expensive add-on. If you purchase the Pro version of flex for nearly a grand, it should be a feature just like creating charts. Thanks for the links but I was hoping for a solution. -- Blair From: Sefi Ninio [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2008 21:44:11 +0300 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Printing and PDF creation I actually just googled for it..
