C1Report Component

The C1Report control reads report definitions stored in XML files, combines them with data from ADO/DAO recordsets or custom data sources, and generates reports that can be previewed, printed, or saved to files. It can create reports in HTML, DHTML, PDF, and Text file formats, as well as in a native VSPrinter7 format. The VSReport7 control supports most features found in Microsoft Access reports, such as:

• A Microsoft Access-style banded-report model based on Groups, Sections, and Fields
• Fields may be bound to simple and binary (object) database fields
• Fields may contain expressions, including extensions for aggregate expressions (Sum, Max, Average, etc.), and have access to the control's object model
• Reports may contain event handlers, making them independent of the host application
• Reports may contain subreports
• Reports may contain parameterized queries, allowing your users to customize the report by adding/limiting the data that should be included in the report
• Report definitions may be saved within the control at design time, or loaded at run time from XML report definition files
