Jeff:

I've not used Crystal Reports but I _think_

http://www.zope.org/Members/zwork/Znolk_SQL_Wizard

might be the sort of direction you're after.

More recently

http://www.zope.org/Members/aeg/ZDatabaseTool

has appeared on the scene which seems like Znolk_SQL_Wizard
on steroids but I haven't had time to check it out yet. (BTW Top
marks to Andreas for the screenshots and the demo site -
if all Products could have supporting screenshots then
the world would be a better place IHMO.)
