No,

 

Our users don't do it, im not sure how well that would work, the tool is a
bit quirky, but with training might be ok.

 

I don't see why they couldn't use the tool and then have a webpage where
they can upload the cfr to use. The queries can be embedded in the report.

 

We tend to actually do the queries in coldfusion and pass the query into the
report but it can work both ways.

 

You would need a template when they upload to ask them what the input
parameters are, such as start date, end date etc.

 

Then have a coldfusion page that generates the prompts for that report.

thanks Dale, appreciated.

 

any nasty limitations? (apart from the builder tool being on Windows only)

 

Do your end-users produce/manage the created CFR files? (a requirement is
for shared and per-user/individual custom reports)

 

thanks

We use it widely here,

 

It's actually a very good tool with limitations, but free.

 

Its integrated into our app and produces PDF reports.

 

The main advantage it has over cfdocument is pixel level control and
pagination.

 

Be happy to answer any questions you might have Barry, I believe I'm the
only user J

I was just going through the cfaussie archives for anything on Report
Builder.

 

not many posts (2 for 2011)

 

either: it's so simple to use, it gets results without headache

or: not many people are using it.

 

Have people been able to successfully incorporate Report Builder into apps
for end users to generate reports (and save CFR files to re-run at a later
date)?

 

thanks
