Java reporting libraries

[Tom McAmmond]

Hi everyone,
I've currently got a Microsoft Access-based solution that I want to turn into a web-based Java/JDBC application for a smallish company intranet (5-10 users). The application may offer web services to the outside world at some point. I have two decisions to make and would appreciate any opinions (am I in the right forum?):
1) Do I go with a full-blown J2EE solution, or just use jsp and servlets for the dozen or so pages?
2) For reports, are there any free Java reporting tools/libraries I can use?
It's so hard to resist using .NET - Microsoft gives away VS.NET to any student, and it comes with Crystal Reports libraries built in!
Thanks for any insight!

If it's not too big an application, stick to Servlets/JSP. EJBs will have lots of overheads.
As for free reporting tools, I guess JasperReports is good. The docs are not too helpful though, but forums are helpful.
