I have been asked to create a report of Mailing labels that runs from a search screen. I have already created the search form which uses an SQL statement to create a table of the results returned. They have requested to have the option of a couple of standard label sizes, plus a customizable option so they can put in the dimensions of the labels.
Doing the standard labels will be relatively easy by setting up the reports first of all then just passing the data to that. But how do I give them the option of producing a customisable label? I have a couple of ideas but Im not sure how to go about them
1) Enable them to go to the wizzard and use that to set up the labels, but how do I pass the data into it and how do I get it to open?
2) Set up a report with a standard layout with the actual layout being changed by code from the dimensions given by the user?
Please I need urgent help on this one. Any help at all would be gratefully recieved.
