Can Adv Server print Summary Reports?

Hello,

We're trying to evaluate whether we should purchase a large number of licenses (around 15) of FileMaker Pro, or just purchase Adv Server and use IWP for all our internal connections. The breaking point would be if Adv Server using IWP cannot print summary reports.

I noticed in my FM Pro 8.5 Adv that if I check the "Indicate Web Compatibility" box in the Scriptmaker that the Print commands and the Preview Mode command both are grayed out. Since summary reports require you to sort by the break field and can only be viewed as summary reports in Preview Mode, does this mean that you cannot print or view summary reports using IWP? If that's the case, I don't think Adv Server would be right for us.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Well there probably is a way to do this via IWP, but all printing from web browsers is determined by the browser.

If you expect to run a lot of summary reports, I would do them from within FileMaker Pro clients.
