Outputs...

[hans_je2003 at yahoo.co.u]

Hi there,
I recently stumbled upon Armybuilder & my first impresiion was:
slick, very good. Until I looked at my first rosters. They stink,
and sometimes are faulty. I search in the docs and found out how to
use xml-files for custom output.
Question: is there anyway to create decent rosterreports for non-
programmers? Why has Lone Wolf not provided decent
reportingfunctionality? I get no answer from them, anyone know? Are
there plugins for reporting rosters?

TIA
Hans_je

Do you mean 'they stink' as in you don't like the look of them?

If the army lists are faulty (ie they allow you to do things with you
aren't supposed to be able to do) then you need to email the datafile
author so that he/she can fix the bug.

Not that I'm aware of.

I would think it's because the vast majority of users don't need anything
more than the standard AB roster output.

Not that I've seen. If you output into XML I would think you could use
just about any Reporting tool out there to create a custom roster, which
could be why LoneWolf didn't feel it necessary to make one of their own.

Nah, sorry,
I had not tried the printfeature, only the save roster in different
outputs. Stupid of me.
