Hi,

are there any recommendations for creating forms and reports for
PostgreSQL (something similar Oracle has got)? I'd like to use them on
any platform (mainly Linux and Windows). What ist the easiest way to
achive this with GPL'd products?

Regards,
Oliver

Hello,

www.gnuenterprise.org (or www.gnue.org) has a forms tool and reports tool
we're developing.  Both myself and the other developer of forms are both
die hard sql*forms fans.  We support unix and windows(recent changes broke
it but should be fixed this week) and have the start of our GUI designer
in cvs.  Out of the box we support postgres,mysql,db2,odbc, and oracle but
postgresql is the devel platform of choice.  The upcomming UI system
rewrite will offer window/unix GUI, curses(currently broken), html (a
planned new feature), and bayonne support for forms (very much still in
planning stages) which if successful will allow you to use the telephone
to "navigate" a form.

We're a official part of the GNU project so you won't too much more GPLd
than that :)

If you decide to take a look at the code I'd suggest grabbing cvs or
contacting me directly at jamest@gnue.org and I'll send some prerelease
tarballs of the next release which I started putting together last night.

Take Care,
james
