Reporting Frameworks
-
I've been tasked with researching some alternatives to SQL Server Reporting Services and was wondering what experiences and recommendations anyone out there has? I've also seen a couple of add-ons for reporting services, some of which look quite promising - has anyone got any experience of these? PS Ideally not Crystal Reports - I had to use this in an old job and *hated* it!! Cheers

I read your post title twice and both times, read it as "Reporting Fireworks". Should be the result of four stressful days with very little rest. :sigh: I guess I'll move home right now and get some sleep. :zzz:

I wrote my own.

I have discovered an etch-a-sketch to be more usable and informative. :)
xacc.ide - now with TabsToSpaces support
IronScheme - 1.0 beta 1 - out now!
((lambda (x) `((lambda (x) ,x) ',x)) '`((lambda (x) ,x) ',x))It's easy to write your own, so I have found.

The idea of reporting frameworks, is to offload the crappy work to end-users. Hence it is dumbed down. It is so dumbed down, end-users can not actually use it, so we are stuck this rubbish...

((lambda (x) `((lambda (x) ,x) ',x)) '`((lambda (x) ,x) ',x))After a brief experience with Crystal I decide wrote my own engine, it can product stunning reports, which hardly any effort, but using c# as the driving language. I aggree these tools are aimed for the users, and trying to simplfy creating reports actually complicates the UI, it seems no software house can solve this problem.

There's active reports. What about reporting services don't they like?

Task is a verb is it not? Past present tense? Am I missing something!? ;)

No it isn't! Task is a noun not a verb. :D What's wrong with "I was given the job of ....."

Hmmm, OED appears to contradict... task • noun a piece of work to be done. • verb 1 (task with) assign (a task) to. 2 make great demands on. — PHRASES take to task reprimand or criticize. — ORIGIN Old French tasche, from Latin taxare ‘censure, charge’.

My condolences as you have been sent on a fool's errand. ;P Btw, have you looked into Cognos?

'Tasking' someone or being 'tasked' is military and project management speak. Gee, have you not dialed in on these new old terms. You're wasting our cycles.

Verbing of nouns is a vile creeping Americanization and should be stamped out lest the evil persist. Plus "tasked with" sounds horrible... X|
