Component List & Label 15:100% Reporting Power

What does a lime have to do with a report component?

List & Label is refreshingly different, easy to handle, universally applicable and absolutely vital for your appli-cation. Or perhaps we just liked the color? ;-)

I recommend that you take a look at the movies first, then go ahead and test the free trial yourself – it runs for 30 days and has complete function-ality. Why not start with one of the provided examples?

Kind regards and wishing you success,

Christiane KördelManaging Directorcombit GmbH

Quickly and easily embed List & Label in your programs. With just a few lines of code you gain access to reporting of any kind and ensure success for your application!
