Yes please! RP3 is an awesome bit of kit. If some serious XSharp users are not using RP, they are wasting their lives away. It leaves Crystal for dead in most areas. With a bit of development it could dominate the reporting app market.

Hi Robert,

Further to my comments.
Is it possible to include a drill-down facility in RP?

Also, can we have global variables. That is variables that have scope across all sections and embedded reports?

Regards,
Tim

We had a copy of 2 we bought way back, but never used it, we choose a different report engine that we can allow our customers to use and write their own reports. R&R Report Works Infinity, works nicely with DBFs and other DBs and have used that since their 6.5 version.

we use VO, but want to switch to XSharp
in my company would likely only be me, but we' want to offer it's use to customers if we ever when down the path.

We do not use ReportPro and do not plan to do so in the near future.
