The list software strips attachments. You could open a trac ticket at: http://trac.dabodev.com You'll first need to register (easy). Make it a ticket-type of 'discussion'. Then attach whatever you want to the ticket. > Anyway, the Earnings and Deductions columns come from different tables. > There are also several fields that come from one or more other tables.

Unlike Crystal, Dabo's report design is completely disconnected from data. Nowhere in the rfxml file is there a reference to data source or the like. Here's what the runtime report writer expects to produce a report: 1) a report design (rfxml file as designed in the report designer) 2) a single data 'cursor'. A cursor is defined as a sequence of dicts of fieldname:fieldvalue pairs. So your code will need to flatten the data into this single cursor before sending it to the report writer at runtime. So the answer is a qualified 'yes'.
