Report Sculptor Foundation
Free Reporting Framework for VFP9
***  New Version 0.90 Beta Available!
Report Sculptor is fully OOP Reporting Framework, complement and extension to standard FoxPro reporting, which focuses on providing alternative ways of designing reports with VFP9. Major goal of this project is Fully OOP Reporting, CrossFormat, Open, Extensible and Free of all known constrains.
 -Built around free paging engine (Pure VFP Object)
-Totally free Report composition using various report content sources
Â
-Replicates native FoxPro controls on report surface
-Use standard VFP forms and Form controls to produce fully OOP reports! You get full control over every aspect of report building. Stage and control your own dataflow, bands, report paging, keeping grouped content together, report totaling - Almost everything.Â
-Powerfull  'write-as-you-go' Report Scripting
-Use your existing FRX reports and combine them withÂ
other content sources (FRX Interpreter)
-WYSIWYG Free Page Designs (On Page Frame or Container)
-Use Page Frame for composing complex multi part
reports.
-Replicate external files into your report.  Use Excel sheet as a page layout template or direct source of reporting figures.
-Report from Plain Text file enriched with scripting and simple HTML tags. This means that you can
now build long and complex text documents. Call FRX and include it within running text and/or add graphics elements via OOP script embeded in text. Again you have full control.Â
-Expose RS Report composition via standard VFP9 Preview Print (recommended) , RS Preview/Print (in development) orÂ
if you own licence to XFRX Print or export it to any other file format.Â
-Export to various File Formats (PDF*,TIF,XFF**)Â
*Â Â Â Â Free/Fast PDF export using O.S. library (Haru DLL Wrapper by DorinV)Â
**  XFRX intermediate format convertible to all other file formats supported by XFRX commercial tool. Â
- Easy to use and easy to deploy. Drop RsFolder on the server along with your own application, and simply call it from your main prg. Customize rsEngine class to use your recognizable report headers and footers.  See below picture of ReportSculptor demo report sent directly to VFP9 native Preview/Print;
If you want to be able to do this kind of complex multiparts report easily with pure Fox, then stay here little bit longer...
