Shorts 2.0.4

Posted on by
Today we released BKeeney Shorts 2.0.4.  This is a free update to all version 2.0.x users.
Shorts is the premier reporting tool for Xojo applications.  Shorts allows a Xojo developer to embed a report designer inside in an application, view reports in any resolution, save report files to file or to a database, and to export reports to HTML, CSV, and PDF (requires the DynaPDF plugin from MBS).  Shorts works with SQLite, CubeSQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MS SQL Server, ODBC, and Informix (requires the SQL plugin from MBS).
Shorts comes as 100% unencrypted Xojo source code.  Please visit the product page at http://www.bkeeney.com/allproducts/bkeeney-shorts/
