SQL*ReportWriter does not do any scheduling, you would have to write a script (DCL, /bin/sh, .etc) to run the report in "batch mode". I have worked with ReportWriter for the past 3 years and it can be quite annoying sometimes.

If your database is normalized, oh how I pray for that, and the reports are pretty straight forward then yeah it's an awesome product. Most reports have a master
query that you then and child queries joined off the main query. It terms of documentation... The books Oracle supply should suffice. I learned ReportWriter
without any manuals... The product is pretty straight forward.
