If the requirement is for just character based reporting,  Wintegrate is a
good candidate.   It has a good character based report builder with options
to send the report to a variety of destinations (excel, word, etc.)   It
also has a full screen viewer.   It produces your standard
'English/Recall/etc.' type reports based on the dictionaries available.   It
gives the user a point and click interface to do this and you can save your
queries for future access.

Beyond that it's a great terminal emulator with some other bells and
whistles (gui tools, file xfer, macros, etc).

Subject: [U2] Report Writer to Create MVquery Statements

One of my new clients (new to MV as well) would like a program to help them
create their own ad-hoc mvquery reports. Presently, I'm creating a simple
2-section program where the first section indicates the verb, filename,
heading/footing and some of the popular modifiers. The second section is
free-form text for the actual 'work' of the statement.

Due to the complexity of these reports, I cannot imagine an easier approach
within MV. I've used MS Access on Access and Crystal Reports against a SQL
database and wonder if there's something already written for MV.

I want to stay within MV. I don't want to venture into CR or any other ODBC
item. Does anyone have any ideas on a simple MV report writer. Please don't
deviate from staying within MV.

Thanks in advance
Mark Johnson
