well not really, but it would be nice one day, if SRB could 
give the final touch.

And what about reports with graphs? 
Is this possible with SRB or is there another option then SRB?

So I am pretty old fashioned, am I  ;-)
But I don“t mind. I started with databases 25 years ago
Now I am trying to learn a few new tricks.

I did not see yet that there is something like tempates for SRB
May be that would save some work.
Aside from that, I guess I will be able pretty well with 
the info you provided. Understanding that this is the way

to go on.

Thanks a lot!
