2020?

What do you think the "19" in COVID-19 stands for?

Maybe Even Shed a Tear or Two? That's Alright, Too.[^]

A client wants some reporting stuff automation.
The problem... The reporting tool of their ERP system is over 15 years old WTF | :WTF:

The supplier has since switched to a new format and I had to get a report viewer from... Somewhere Laugh | :laugh:

It's not really a problem for me though, the whole report is XML which is decent enough (as decent as XML gets anyway).
The real problem is within the report content... Pascal Script! OMG | :OMG:

Actually printing a report is going to be nice, their SDK for this version is only available in... Delphi Laugh | :laugh:

Someone else is doing the Delphi, luckily Dead | X|

I didn't think I was old enough to ever witness Pascal, even if it's just its unholy script spawn.
Pascal Script looks a lot like PL/SQL and thus burns mine eyes!

I've already ordered a set of dark robes to perform my (now) nightly programming rituals.
A question for the initiated, do I need a cauldron? Big Grin | :-D

Best,
Sander

You need a cauldron full of your favourite poison, to (a) take away the bad taste, and (b) make you forget...

Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Come on old man! Get with the 21st century - you need an iCauldron XI Pro!
Sure, it's hardware incompatible with Fire 1.0 and Water 2.3, but you'll get used to the (proprietary) iMagic iInterface!

And we promise^* not to slow it down when we release a new version next month!

* Unless there is money in it for us
