Tauf and David, Thanks for the reply. The product claims that you can create a formula using an SQL based formula, but when I tried it, the report stopped working. Also how do you do a table in a smart reports? They seem to have a lot of graphs but no tables.
Also I don't believe that our customer is willing to spring for BMC Analytics, though they are extremely dependent on our Crystal Reports right now and I don't think Smart Report is going to be able to handle it. I've watched the videos on-line. Do you know if there is any other training available out there?
