TOPIC: template with newest version of HIP

Ok guys, things are slow and with Big D's latest version I decided to post a sample report. Please feel free to comment and critique, but don't be too hard on me:)

[glow=red,2,300]P.S. Dominic thanks again for saving my rear ( and erased template) a couple weeks ago at 2 am no less. I really appreciate your dedication of making HIP the best software and support available.

Hey John,

No problem about the template

The report looks great. Only suggestion I would have is to add a few blank lines at the end of your intro document so it doesn't run into the exterior section. I'd add a line to the top of each section as well so the report key doesn't run up. You might have had that before and this could be a result of the change I made to clean up the conversion for Edit Docs to PDF.

Nice to see a sample using the new colored rating boxes and spacing

Add a few extra lines and I'd love to add it to the Sample Reports page!

Dominic,

funny you should say that about the lack of spaces. I just took out the spaces this morning, to see how much it would cut down on pages, since My reports seem to run on the lengthy side. It didnt cut down even one page and I plan too redo the docs. asap. thanks for the input.

John

No problem I think once we add the option for 3 photos across it might cut a few pages off the report for you. I'm sure the pictures make up half the report size.

Ok Dom,

Man, are you picky! you dont like a 50 page sentence??

thanks for the input on the report. Here is the updated report, as well as my current template if anyone wants to use it.

I am very visual and like adding color to make things obvious in my report.

How about making the check boxes have an option of being different colors. Example, A red X would really stand out to a client without sending them into a panic as if I used red for my color option for all 5 boxes.

Thats just my 2 cents worth, can I get it back when you are done though, you know how it is with the economy crumbling, it all adds up;)

I thought about making the option of the X being a different color that the rating table borders, just wasn't sure if anyone would use it! I'll add it to the list of the next version.
