Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re[2]: Data Reporting tools
Tom,
Yeah we've acquired that piece of trash too, along with PeopleSquish. Problem with it is that it allows only one query per report. That gets into trouble around here as we often have multiple subqueries per report. We've handled that with Oracle reports before, but that one is way too complicated for our 'power users'.

We are currently looks at a product named Crystal Reports from the company below, they seem to have a number of products along the lines of your query.
