- Hi,
-
- is there a report writer which is simpler to use than tbl or tex
- and allows column formatting, grouping, total&subtotal calculations on breaks,
- grouping of column headers, page numbering, reprint headings on nextpage,
- footnotes ...
-
- ex.
- MAJOR HEADER
- ------------
- HeadA HeadB
- ----- -----
- 10.2 1.000
- 11.3 2.000

- I would like this to run off ascii files, but I realize that most applications
- are database report writers. Any help would be appreciated.
-
- Holger.
