Oracles RPT or SQLREPORT 1.1 is an older reporting tool. There is no utility provided by Oracle to upgrade RPT to the latest reporting tools.
I have a near perfect clone you must have been looking for! With Oracle Corporation discontinuing support for RPT, users like you who have their reports developed in RPT are looking for a tool that will allow them to move their old reports. With Y2K pressures building up you can hardly wait. Many RPT programs did even INSERTs and UPDATEs and DELETEs! RPT was feature rich and this becomes a big stumbling block to Y2K or Oracle migration.
I have developed 1 new programs ORAWINRPFRPT in VC++ using Oracle OLE Class Library. This does the work of both RPF & RPT and works exactly as the abandoned Oracle SQLREPORT and require almost no touch to make it work. This saves all the risks and time of manual conversion to ReportWriter 2.5 or 3.0.
The development supports all the features of RPT & RPF. It was OK for the 350 complex reports of 1 installation where we had to do very minor touches.
The product is unlimited user license limited to 1 server in 1 physical location. E-mail support is included for 3 months from date of payment- mailto:sss@cal.vsnl.net.in
If you are very short of manpower we can provide the product and migration services. I have alliances with IT consultancy organizations with high skills in ORACLE and this clone and can provide cost effective RPT migration services.
Interested? Send me a Mail or download Demo Copy. You need Oracle OLE OBJECTS version 2.3 to run this software.
