Piparti End User Rpt "Help"

Piparti Users,

Has anyone developed an end users "Help" or printed documentation?  

Also, we are using the EZQuery that Piparti uses.  But getting no response
from the developer.  What are you all using?

I've urged the Piparti folks to consider adding to the End User capability.
 Things like easy mailing label design.  

Would  like to share ideas with other Piparti users.

   For a query designer, you can try: http://www.conclusion.com/, or you
can actually use Shazam's query designer (I think) to write Piparti
reports if you like the Piparti interface better.
   I believe that Piparti already supports mailing labels by using the
column mode under File->Page Setup.  But your comment might have meant
that this is not "easy enough" for end users.  If so, there is an
example report that shows how to use five different Avery label sizes in
Piparti Pro 3.  It is in the DEMOS/REPORTS directory, and is sample
report number 4.  There is a tiny wizard it uses to choose the size of
the labels.  You could expand this to pick the label format and
auto-print the labels if you want.

  We'll soon be a Piparti Pro customer.  The existing tool we've used on
other projects involved QR1, QRDesign, and EZQuery.  Faced with the EZQuery
authors being out of business, rewriting the tool to use QR2 and QRDesign 2,
and a 11/19 deadline, the make vs. buy choice is fairly easy.  :-\
