Could you please elaborate a little bit on "any of the many ...".  I
don't know of any available report generators.  Since I am stuck on
windows while at work, this is an interesting option. The ones that I
know of are commercial, which, practically speaking, means unavailable
(unless they also work on Linux, then I might purchase a copy for my own
use, and if the license permitted and a version were available, I could
use it also at work).

I suppose that I might generate a link into MSAccess, and use their
report generator.  I've considered this in other contexts.  But that
looks to me as if it would create either much application instability
(depending on finding the correct version at a different site) or great
legal issues (including a copy of the needed dll's).  That's the real
reason that I backed away from doing this in Python.  I think that I'd
prefer to generate html and have the user print it from a browser.  But a
more self-contained approach would be much more acceptable.
