List & Label
Combit List & Label
Combit List & Label is a professional tool for extensive reporting, label-, chart- and form-printing and webreporting.
It allows interactive forms (enable user input during print preview) and MailMerge functionality (by using the RTF object).
Natively supported export and conversion formats are: PDF, HTML, RTF, Excel, MHTML, XML, JPEG, GIF, BMP, EMF, TIFF, CSV...
Report Designer
The professional edition of this tool allows you to deploy the report designer with your application with no additional royality fees.
License / Costs
Standard and professional edition are licensed per developer; there's (and never have been) no runtime fees. Webreporting is licensed by concurrent users; 5 concurrent users are included with the professional edition. For further information check the vendors website.
Integration
Combit List & Label ships as ActiveX, VCL (Delphi), .NET component and as a set of DLLs. While .NET and VCL allow a data bound mode, ActiveX and DLL do offer a database independent mode only - which however has some advantages and which is particular easy to intgrate with eDeveloper. (Note: Due to some limitations in Magic's implementation of ActiveX event sinks, it is not possible to use some of the ActiveX functionality)
supported development environments
List & Label has a long list of supported development environments and ships with at least one sample for each of these. Magic (eDeveloper) did not yet make it into this list - at least you can however meanwhile tell the vendor about Magic if you download an evaluation and answer the vendor's question "With which environment do you program the most?". "Magic" is an option there :-)
