Other updates include the Barcode, Matrix, Calendar and Table controls plus data visualization features that make complicated transactional, analytical and Business Intelligence (BI) reports easy to create and read. All of these features are now available through new designer controls plus a redesigned viewer supporting a consistent look and feel and extensive API, continuing the coding traditions of the award winning ActiveReports product line.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Why upgrade to ActiveReports 7?&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;The latest updates include:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Report Layout Options&lt;/strong&gt; - Reports offer data regions to make it easy to create different report types. Charts, tables, crosstabs and more can be freely mixed within the same report, eliminating the need to use subreports in most instances.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ajax-based ASP.NET WebViewer -&lt;/strong&gt; The new Ajax-based WebViewer control no longer relies on ASP.NET postbacks to do its work. It has also been updated with a new API and report parameter support, so you no longer need to write the code to handle parameter input yourself.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Advanced Printing Support -&lt;/strong&gt; Scale pages, add page watermarks and print multiple report pages on a single sheet.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Barcode Features -&lt;/strong&gt; New symbologies including Intelligent Mail and Data Matrix.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Parameter Support Across Viewers -&lt;/strong&gt; All viewer controls can now prompt the user for parameter values. When using page reports, these parameters can also offer data entry options such as a list of values to choose from and cascading parameters where one value filters the list.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Persistent Licensing -&lt;/strong&gt; Once you've entered a retail license key, your system remains licensed until you manually deactivate that license, making it easier to upgrade to maintenance releases.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Upgrade your Developer Licenses or Site Licenses now - &lt;a href="http://www.componentsource.com/contactus.asp"&gt;contact us&lt;/a&gt; for a quote or visit our &lt;a href="http://www.componentsource.com/products/activereports-6/index.html?rc=ni_12140"&gt;ActiveReports 7&lt;/a&gt; page for pricing.
