A data query and reporting method and system are provided. The method and system allow non-technical computer users to build and execute complex database queries. The method and system accommodate the need for a simple, easy-to-understand interactive and iterative means for generating and validating database queries. The method and system reduce the complexity and costs associated with retrieving useful information for organizations of all sizes, especially smaller businesses. The method and system support a robust security model, enabling organizations to protect sensitive data while providing broad data access.

A method and system for creating and following drill links in a report are disclosed. A relational abstraction of a data store is defined, the definition including a plurality of views, scalar or aggregate fields associated with the views, and relations between the views. A report is generated that includes at least one drill link associated with a sequence of one or more relations originating at a base view of the relational abstraction. Upon selecting a drill link contained in a first report, information about the drill link is extracted from the report, and the extracted information and the destination view associated with the drill link are used to create a second report.

A method and system for displaying a relational abstraction data store are disclosed. A relational abstraction of a data store is defined, the definition including a plurality of views, scalar or aggregate fields associated with the views, and relations between the views. The fields and relations associated with views are displayed and related to a base view through a sequence of relations. The fields displayed are constrained based upon the sequence of relations from the base view. Scalar fields are displayed where the sequence of relations does not contain a to-many relation. Aggregate fields are displayed where the sequence of relations contains at least one to-many relation. Distinct aggregate fields are displayed where the relation path sequence contains a to-many relation followed by a many-to-one relation. A field may be displayed with additional information indicating how, or whether, the fields may be used. The display of fields may be constrained in predetermined ways. The display of relations may be displayed with additional information about the nature of the relations and the sequence of the relation path. Fields and relations may be displayed using a hierarchical means of display such as in trees structures or lists, or may be displayed using a natural language description.

Baseball batting device for sequentially delivering baseballs to a hitter for batting practice and comprising ball storage tubes for retaining a plurality of baseballs for sequential introduction into a baseball delivery apparatus wherein the baseball delivery apparatus intermittently receives baseballs from the ball storage tubes so as to intermittently drop the baseballs to the hitter. The delivery apparatus includes a ball receiving member journaled for axial rotation along a point disposed adjacent the storage tubes, the delivery tubes being provided with at least one ball receiving socket formed as a radially extending cavity therein for receiving and dispatching baseballs therefrom. In addition, a mount is provided for positioning the baseball batting practice device in elevated disposition for gravitational dropping of baseballs from the delivery apparatus.

Disclosed is an improved seat for toddlers on a dinghy or other small watercraft. The seat preferably includes two parallel rods that are each secured to the port and starboard sides of the watercraft. Draped between the rods is a loosely hanging fabric sheet that extends from the rods down to an elevation below the rods, but above the floor of the watercraft. In the sheet are leg holes through which a toddler's legs may extend. The placement of the toddler's legs through the holes helps to secure the toddler into the watercraft and keeps the toddler from being jostled when the smaller watercraft is bumped by waves or the wake of a larger vessel.
