FogBugz Technical Support

I once saw a website with an add-on program to FogBugz, something about exporting cases to excel to do 'more' with it. I cannot find it anymore! Any one know what site or program I am talking about? Thanks!

CaseDetective.

Yep, on the spot, thanks! Anyone experience with this piece of software?

You could use DBxtra.
We ourselves use it to report on FugBugz, and I already have a FogBugz project setup.
If you're interested download the demo and let me know; I'll send you the FogBugz project and you just have to import it to DBxtra. You'll be setup in 5 minutes to report FogBugz.
It will allow you to export to Excel, XML, Text, PDF, etc. and also to report on FogBugz.
Let me know.

CaseDetective has worked well for me. It allows exporting some items that are complex to get right in ad-hoc SQL reports and impossible to get from FB itself. In its current state, however, it is mostly a "get data from SQL server and display" kind of app, without complex reporting. Hopefully the next release (due sometime soon) will remedy that.

Get the trial and give it a shot. It might save you some time since it pulls from your filters list, so you don't have to figure out how to do a query, just set it up in FB and go.

Yeah, I like Case Detective, but I wish it had more true reporting features rather than just exporting to CSV.
