Add sophisticated reports to your applications. Visual Reports is a comprehensive way to create and generate presentation quality reports within a software application. The software developer designs a report using the interactive designer, then programs the printing aspects of the report within an IDE environment. The software developer is responsible for providing the application data needed to produce the report. The software developer has full control of report properties and methods using a COM interface.
What's New in V2.0:
- Generate PDF reports natively
- Improved Interactive Report Designer – Very similar to the VB6 IDE
