Thanks, I can see a custom built "paper" report having merit. I think the
accountant is comparing with "that evil program" which allows side by side
"live" reports that they can click-to-dive in.

Wonderful thank you. All the more reason for me to upgrade. I'd been
putting it off on the "it's fine as it is" basis, but this sounds like a
good trigger.
