Does LiveCode support printable reports, as in header-detail-footer and nested grouping?
If so, could someone point me to the documentation?
Thank you

Hi.
You might start with the "revPrintText" entry in the dictionary. There are also about a million other "print" related entries.
But others will have more input as to reports and report tools and templates.

Re: Reports
Hi AlphBase. Sorry, no report builder in LC. You have to write your own custom solution. Here's a 1-card printing stack taken from a LiveCode tutorial I wrote. It includes demo code for printing reports, text, fields, and cards. Maybe it'll help. The complete tutorial is at the web address below.
A recent similar request received a suggestion to use a substack strategy populating fields positioned in the substack and printing the card for the report. A demo for a substack report is included in the attachment. Terry.
