[Tellico-users] Laughing Horse Books needs your help!

[Robby Stephenson]

I'm away from home for the week, but if you want to write a duumy
report with fake values as a html file and send it to me, I can take a
shot at turning it into a report xsl file.

Not sure why the update menu stuff doesn't work. None of the data
sources work? This is for a book collection?
