Short answer: don't bother with EOF for reporting and let the database do the heavy lifting. You can always make the resulting data set available to EOF through your favorite database level representation such as views, store procedures, pipelined functions or such.

EOF is meant to shield you away from SQL, in the same way as WOF shield you from HTTP.

But for any non-trivial DMLs, you most likely want to use SQL directly.

One way or another, once you have your data, something like Jeff Martin's ReportMill might be useful:
