- You have all the source code for both the report writer and the runtime report
- system. I haven't used the features you've talked about, but I have substantially
- modified both peices of the report system for other reasons, and found it quite
- easy to modify and change. I'll bet one of your engineers could fix both those
- problems in 1-2 hours of poking around, probably less time than it took you to
- get and install the update...
