Hey Brad, I asked a similar question on the list a few weeks ago about report tools in general. Navicat was recommended from the list but it may not be exactly what we require. We require a reporting tool that can connect to most dB types - E.g. SQL Server, MySQL, PostGreSQL It must have a well-developed UI for report design. Reports must be available via browsers, hence it must have a Report Server repository or similar. It must support automated scheduling and there are quite a few other essentials. But MS Access really won't do as the report tool in this instance Many thanks Darren -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Brad Marks Sent: Tuesday, 22 May 2012 4:25 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Jasper Reports Darren, I had never even heard of Jasper Reports until reading your post. I am curious as to what you are looking to do. We use Access 2007 for many reports and it works well for our current needs. However, there is some talk about future "Dashboard type" reports and I am not sure if these reports will be easy to create with Access. Are you looking at Jasper for these kinds of reports or for other reasons.
