Has anyone moved over to Datapage+ for reporting?

I don't know if Im missing something, but the layout is beyond confusing, Im still not sure I have the database setup correctly, it is dog slow when I have a part model on the screen, & I still have not figured out how to tell PCDMIS how to access the database. Im trying to make Dataview style reports out of it, but Im finding it next to impossible to do. Why they did away with the File...Edit...View...toolbar at the top, I dont know.

  • In addition to JEFF's comment, in which I experience the same faults with DP+. My frustration is in the report creation. If you mess up and didn't save periodically, you have to start the report all over again. Frustrating when your report is 26 pages long (I have 3 of these this size). Also, why have the option to hide a feature with no option to bring any feature forward? I give props to the update so the features/dimensions can be sorted by measurement order or not. Too bad you didn't implement it where it counts, in creating queries. This program that has a 26 page report has over 600 features. In adding the features, they accumulate at the bottom and is a pain in searching for what I want. And for some wishing, the run charts look like crap. My boss wants my run charts to look like Cognitens that GM gives us. Just my 2 cents for the moment. Looking forward to the update, whenever it arrives.
