We went throught the same problem with RPT to Reports 2.5. There arn't any easy answers, but here's the only thing I could find:
1.) Kumuran systems - Last time I talked to them they were very
expensive ($50-75K) for a few hundered reports.
2.) Miti (now Scribe) use to sell "RPT-2-C", which would take RPT
code as an input, and generate either "C" coder or an executable file (known as RPT-2-EXE). I called them, and they say they don't sell or support it anymore. I found one vender in Europe that had it for (VMS,UNIX,DOS,etc), but again quite expensive at $10-$15K + not incl support.
3.) I've heard that Designer/2000 can convert RPT code - though
I only use Developer/2000, so I can't say how well it works, and I understand that the character --> GUI takes some tweeking. .. Received on Tue Sep 02 1997 - 00:00:00 CEST
