I'm not so much interested in printing a 'Watched By' report (which would constantly change) as I am in just pulling up that information to view.  We have an option in DVD Profiler to set 'Watched By' dates, but no way to use or report the information that we've entered.  Unfortunately, I don't possess the skills to create such a report myself, nor am I skilled in the use of scripts.  If a report does not yet exist to pull up information regarding the 'Watched By' dates we've entered, would someone with such skills be interested in creating one? 


Thank You!      -kd5-

you may want to post this in the reports forum... you'll have a better chance of getting someone to make it for you there.

Would be the date of "last watched" enough for you?

See Example
Download it and put it in the reports-directory

I quickly changed a report for locations to show the "Last Watched"

Possible problem: If more than one user "watches" in your DB, the report will show the latest date without regard which user this date is assigned to.

I think the Database Query plugin will do exactly what you want.  You can find a link in my signature.
Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

Nice report, is there a way to sort by Date Watched to readily see newest/oldest?  Thanks for your efforts!      -kd5-

Took me awhile to find the option within Database Query, but it looks like it might do what I need it to do, I'll have to look at it further.  Thanks!      -kd5-

You could sort your collection after last viewed and then print the report, that's how you should be able to have it in the wanted sorting. (at making the report, choose the first option "sort as current listing")
