Hi Rob,

Sorry for the delayed response. We don't have extensive documentation on modifying the reports... it is not something most users try to tackle! However, the file "Rep8.chm" in your AEI Software\IRRICAD Pro 10\Help directory should provide some of the background concepts.

I'd suggest starting with a COPY of a report that does approximately what you are after - you can see how things are done in that report, and modify from there. Note that Irricad creates the report menu items dynamically using the report name found by opening a report with the ReportEditor, and choosing Report|Options from the menu. This name needs to be unique!

Lets us know if you need any assistance,

Regards,

Dan
