[U2] Reporting Tools

I'm looking for feedback from those in any industry about your report 
needs with U2 and what tools you use to solve them.  In short, Entrinsik 
has serious inroads in the academic community and Informer is a 
reasonably good and inexpensive tool for most reports.

However, we are running into issues with some users like to write large 
reports.  Large, by out standards, are reports with 200+ columns in the 
output.

Are others writing reports with this many output fields?  If so, are you 
ever running up against limits in the sentence size (U_SENTLEN)?  Our 
limit is about 9700 chars and we have some reports hitting this limit.  
I'm having a hard time explaining to some VP types that the database 
can't handle this size report...

Any feedback is welcome.
