OWC as a reporting tool

Hello,

How are you today?

I am currently reviewing the Pivot Table component of the OWC as a
reporting tool versus using traditional Access reports. I find that
using the Pivot Table is a fast way of generating reports with a great
layout on screen, but the challenge has been to create print ready
reports for end users.

The prefered solution seems to be to use Excel to handle printing,

but users still have to handle some of the formating themseleves.

1. Are they any reference applications which showcases such reporting
functionality?

Key features would be the ability to control page breaks and
dynamically create labels.

seems to say this is possible, but I believe this is a proprietary
application.

Feel free to respond with any questions.
