While I never got to use this in a production environment, I trained on a product called QlikView a couple of years back, and was fairly impressed with its capabilities. The development environment was a bit buggy, but the end results were pretty impressive. After you set up your datasources, it pulls everything into it's own database that is optimized for reporting, so it provides very fast drill down. I seem to remember that their web component wasn't as good as the desktop version at the time, but that may have changed by now. http://www.qliktech.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:253963 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
