To be fair, to get any real power out of Powerhouse you have 
to write Quiz, Qtp or Quick code. :)

You can, like Powerhouse, just go with the default forms and 
reports but it isn't too practical. But you can get a report
And/or a form as quick as you can in Powerhouse. And maybe
Even a more practical one.
