New Era,Reports and C++
Posted in 1996
Hi, We have a need to display a report on the screen in proportional fonts and then to allow the user to print it (in proportional fonts) or to suck the report into a word processor - retaining the font info. The report is a bill and so has a numeric column down the right hand side that is aligned on the decimal point. Using a fixed font for the numeric column is an option. The bill layout is determined by a 'template' held in the database and will contain a variety of transactions from different tables (time, disbursements, gst/vat content etc) Anyone have any ideas on how best to do this? Is there a C++ class library that can help us do this? TIA ---------------------------------------------------------------------- David Paulo, InForm Group Ltd.,PO Box 1444, Wellington, New Zealand.
