Rainforest NET - Free Customizable Javascript Date Time Picker, Crystal Reports Exporter

Welcome...

Welcome to my personal website, rainforest NET.

I have spent some of my free time coming out with some stuff that I would like to share with the rest of the world.

Well, I started this site in 2002 where personal blog is not something very common. Apparently, this site is completely done in HTML with some minor javascript codes.

I did it by using simple text editors such as Notetab Light and PSPad. Therefore,I wouldn't be updating this site as frequent as bloggers do. In fact, it will be very much static for at least years. Anyway, I hope you can enjoy browsing this very web 1.0 site and find what you are want.

Crystal Reports Exporter

Crystal Reports has been the market leader in the reporting industry for years.

Thousands or millions of developers and business users still favour this tool ever since it was created. Being one of the users, I find Crystal Reports is really a good tool but its pricing for report distribution doesn't seems to be impressive.

This .NET command-line tool is here to help you to export your RPT into various format such as pdf, word, excel and even HTML. The beauty of this tool is you can just write a batch file (.bat) to run it or schedule it with Windows Task Scheduler.

However, I wrote this tool by using Crystal Reports.net which is an engine that different from the real Crystal Reports. Hence, the compatibility to the real Crystal Reports is not very promising but it might be enough for some of the users.

Well, no harm trying. Learn more....

Why Rainforest?

This is a site that featuring computer software, why I name it as Rainforest NET?

Well,I live in a tropical country with 47% of the land covered by rainforest. Malaysia. Some of the rainforests are the oldest in the world compared to Africa and South America.

It has been existing even before the extinction of the dinosaur which was about 65 million years ago. They are already 130 millions years old! Can you imagine that?

However this site was not created to publish rainforest facts from my research (which I hope I will be doing it in the future) but computer software/freeware that I created during my free time.

I wish my visitors would be aware of how important the rainforest is and the role that the rainforest is playing in our world. Rainforest is a natural precious resource is given to us and it is our responsibility to protect it for our children.

Just google deforestation and you will find out how serious deforestation has been in recent days. So, how do we save our precious rainforest? Click here for answer.
