I like browser based solutions since they run from the server on any workstation OS and can be opened up for internet access if you wish You could try phppgadmin where you can also enter db records and has a report feature where you can make a report and then save it. But for complex input forms or reports, you need a custom coded app for this concept. We built one as a module for phpgroupware since it also provides email client, calendar sharing, todo, notes, and a bunch of other useful tools. So our app just becomes another module within a consistent framework to our users. Dr. Michael J.
