Can I use PCDmis report templates in Datapage?

JerryRigger
I appologize in advance for what seems to be a puerile question. I am fairly new to datapage and there may be a really simple answer for my questions. I like all of the control that is available in PCDmis for report templates. It is, however, only good for the current run. What if some chucklehead in the front office asks me two months from now for a particular report on a part that shipped to the customer three weeks ago? I have all the relavent data stored in datapage, but am I limited to the canned reports available in datapage? Can I reverse the process and load data from datapage back into PCDmis? Does Datapage have a report editor similar to PCDmis? Can I load the report templates that I have created in PCDmis? Is there an option that I haven't considered?

Thanks for any support.

    Nope, if you don't "print to file" when running Pcdmis, the Pcdmis reports are gone. There is an OLD STYLE LOOK-ALIKE measurement report in Datapage, but that's it.

    Personally, I never print-to-paper, I only print to file when running Pcdmis (as well as saving ALL data to Datapage). If someone wants hardcopy, they can print it themselves, all my hard-copy reporting is done through Excel (data from Datapage copy * pasted into Excel forms that report EVERYTHING!).
