Hi,

mhh,

I thought of generating a cursor where each row/column reflects the values
you want (sums, join,..), then you may use a grid on that cursor (not on the
origin tables). We do so for presenting something like a "report in a form"
with some of our apps. The grid has an underlying cursor reflecting sums,
variance, user remarks, ... of multiple tables.

2. Maybe you can put the resulting ms-excel*** (see below) as object (ole)
on the form.

3. Otherwise you could setup the form with manual calls of addobj(textbox)
with the size and values you need. I think that maybe a very boring job to
do.
