Yeah. You, uh, output to HTML. What are you looking for? Personally
I'd output my data as XML, then push it thru a really nice XSLT using MSXML
to produce the end HTML/PDF/RTF/text file. In reality you can do
whatever... just output data to HTML. Are you looking for a WYSIWYG editor,
something to drag and drop, or are you a Notepad warrior?

I don't know how to use XML. I know that it is similar to html. I just never
used it. I am just looking for the simplest way to produce a report. I have
to sum up some values. I have never produced a report. I need like
step-by-step help.

Do you know any HTML?
If so, then creating a report in HTML
is easy.
I assume that you have some report layout in mind????
Like where to place the report date and title,
what column headings are required, what labels
are required, what are the data details, the totals
and sub-totals, what will comprise the header and
footer, if any????
I also assume you know how to use ADO to retrieve
the values from the database(s).
If you don't have a clue, then are you asking for someone
to code your entire report for you?
Also, if your database is ACCESS 2000, can't you create a
report using the Report Designer, and save it and then export
it to HTML? I think you can!!!
