Dabo has its own Report Writer / Report Designer duo[1]. It is based on 
an opensource toolkit called ReportLab[2], which produces PDF files that 
you could then display on screen, send to a printer, email, post on a 
web page, etc.

The report design gets saved as xml, which can be edited manually or by 
using the Dabo Report Designer.


[1] There are a couple screencasts showing the Dabo Report Designer in 
action here:

(Get yourself a cup of coffee or lunch first... they are about 30 
minutes total).
