Fresh from the excitement of creating my first HUD that pulls data from a remote mysql database, I'm wondering if there's a way to do the same for reports? I'd like to be able to have the same data that's now displayed in the HUD available to reports rather than having to manually record what's there.
Thanks, Scott |

Humm ... that is an interesting question.
My first thought is that you could use an F-Script query to get your data from whatever source. In the case of a web source, you could use the NSURLRequest class to get data. Internet & Web Cocoa Classes I've never used those classes, but from what I see, it should be possible (and involved). I'm not sure how you would parse the result. At the end of the F-Script, you need to return an NSArray of NSDictionaries or an NSArray of KVC compliant objects. |

Thanks AJ - it's nice to know it's probably possible, unfortunately, it looks like it's well beyond my current capabilities.
Perhaps someone with the needed expertise will pick this up as a challenge! |
