REPORTEASE PLUS

Let your user design the reports using simple drag and drop interface. Avaialble for Win32, C/C++, VisualBasic 6.0 and ASP.NET


ReportEase is the most cost effective way of incorporating report writing features into your application

ReportEase consists of two components. The first component is the report designer. This component allows your users to design report layouts. The second component is the report executor. The report executor is used to print a report using a specified template.

Both the report designer and the report executor are available Royalty free for distribution.

ReportEase provides a comprehensive set of features. The basic features of the product allow even a novice user to become productive quickly. Your users will find this product very intuitive and user friendly. The advanced features of ReportEase can be used to generate very imaginative reports and documents.

Multiple File/Multiple Section: ReportEase does not impose any limitation on the number of data files that can be used to supply data. A report or document can have up to 9 sort break sections. Your application supplies a list of data fields that can be used as the sort fields. In addition to the sort sections, you can also define the page header/footer, and report header/footer sections. The section footers can display subtotals, average, minimum, maximum and count fields. Each section can have multiple lines containing text and fields in any format.

The report designer also allows you to specify a selection criteria for the records to be printed. This feature allows your user to print only the desired subset of the data.

A number of advanced features are also available. For example, you can specify a calculation field for a section break. A report section can be conditionally suppressed using a section selection criteria. A section can be instructed to print on every page break. You can suppress blank lines within a section. A section split can be prevented during the page break. You can specify page break criteria for every section. Moreover, multiple records can be printed across the page.

Fields: The report designer supports text, numeric, float, logical and date type fields. A long text string field can be word wrapped for printing. The ReportEase fields can come from one of the following sources:

  • Data Field: TA field that is associated with a data record. The data field types include integer, float, text, word-wrapped text, date, logical, and dynamic picture fields.
  • Formula Field: A formula can be written using constants, operators, functions and other fields. The product also supports nested calculation fields.
  • Print View Mode to facilitate WYSIWYG editing.
  • System Field: Page-number, page-count, current date, record number, etc.
  • Dialog Field: These fields can be inserted to prompt the user for record selection parameters during report execution. It can also be printed in the report header for information. An example of this type of fields would be the beginning and ending dates for a report.

Character Formatting Options: The report designer allows multiple fonts and point sizes within a report.

The product supports conditional fonts. This feature allows you to change the font and color for the report items depending upon its value.

Embedded Pictures: The product also allows you to import a picture bitmap from a disk file or from the clipboard. The picture can be embedded anywhere in the report.

The dynamic pictures are also supported. For example in a employee report, you can print the picture of each employee.

Printing: The product also allows you to import a picture bitmap from a disk file or from the clipboard. The picture can be embedded anywhere in the report.

ASP.NET Interface:

ReportEase includes an ASP .NET Web Control which can be used to embed the report designer and report executor within your ASP.NET page. When the client loads your application page containing ReportEase control, the ReportEase ActiveX control automatically gets downloaded. Your application would pass the data definition and data record files to let the user create report templates or to execute a report template.

Interface with Your Application:

Your application can interface with ReportEase using two methods:

  • Simple Method: This method involves passing the data definition and data record files to ReportEase Control. These are simple comma-delimited text files. Your application would generate these files and pass them to ReportEase control using a bunch of properties. ReportEase then takes care of letting the user select fields to drop into a report template, and sorting of data and execution of report templates.
  • Low-level Interface Method:
    • Report Designer: Your application calls the report designer with the name of the template to be edited. Since ReportEase is not aware of your data structure, your application provides a callback function (or an event handler) that allows the user to select the data fields. When the user wishes to insert a data field into the report, the report designer fires an event to let your user select one of you data fields.
    • Report Executer: Your application initializes the report executor by calling the initialization function passing the name of the report template to run. Then your application calls the print function to pass each logical record set from your database. Since ReportEase is not aware of your data source, your data can come from any source including from memory variables.
    • The Report Executer performs record selection, sort breaks, calculations and printing functions. At the end, your application calls the exit routine to print the footers and release the resources.
Version 11 of ReportEase includes these additional features:
