Message: [QUOTE="Dennis Lee Bieber, post: 4010838"] Basically the route I took a few years ago when I had to write a tool parsing ClearCase file listings into a landscape format report... Create a sample report in Word; save as RTF; cut snippets of RTF control structures for use in a Python "report writer" (I had features for defining page header/footers, column headers, page length, and output methods that kept track of how many data lines remained on the page -- if a block of text given for output wouldn't fit on the remainder of the page, it would skip down to the footer area, output a footer, newpage, output a header, output a column header if defined, then output the data block) [/QUOTE]
