columns automatically or based on the B2Win Customization designed earlier for this report; the result will be in a table format

fonts or customization will be taken into account

3. Graphics• The report will be converted to the chosen format including fonts

defined in Baan

macro will run directly after it (Excel, Word)

Success Stories

customer

Kistler in Switzerland - We are using B2Win since many years and are very happy with it. We could reduce the cost of Baan programming because the users can create their reports with Excel by themselves, based on their own needs. The cooperation with NAZDAQ has always been very successful in the past.

Amstrong in Canada - We had a reporting need to convert Baan reports, standard and customized, into a more usable format like Microsoft Excel. NAZDAQ's product B2Win was the right solution for us at the right cost. Each new version has had good improvements made. We are very pleased with the service level NAZDAQ has provided Armstrong.
