Hello, I have got bored by doing the same task for all days. Actually i usually make reports by using Microsoft access. I am currently using windows 7 on my computer. It takes so much time to make reports and sent to all of the members of our office. I do have format for reports but still it is much time consuming while sending it. I think MARS 5.6 can solve my problem. Can this would be something really useful for me ?
