From time to time we hear of customers who want to print scheduled reports. They want their report to be sitting in the printer waiting for them in the morning, that sort of thing. CUIC doesn't support this as built-in functionality, but you can do it using Microsoft Outlook.

There is quite a bit of interest in different techniques for using multiple AW/HDS servers with a single CUIC instance, for a number of reasons.

One reason people typically want to use multiple AW/HDS servers is to spread the load from a CUIC instance to multiple data sources. I've already blogged in the past about ...Read More

 

With the release of CUIC 7.5.3, there is one grid, the grid that was previously known as the "grouped grid". Since it now supports dynamic sorting it is now the only grid available.

One of the nice things about this grid is that much of its appearance can be customized by modifying the CSS (cascading style sheet) file that dictates its appearance. This is an undocumented technique, but should be fairly straightforward for anyone with a bit of HTML experience.

In some very specific instances, you may want CUIC Web servers to share a database but query different AW/HDS servers, to split load. At first glance this doesn't seem possible as the AW/HDS that is queried is defined by a data source, which is stored in the CUIC database. However, there is a workaround which I'll show you in this post.

Most people don't realize just how extensible CUIS is. You can do a lot with it, however, if you know what you're doing.

For example, most people don't realize that you can build a completely custom display using custom-built XSLT files. It's true! You can give CUIS your own stylesheets, and then tell the report to use that stylesheet instead of the default displays.
