Thanks once again James :-)

I did also see this FAQ and downloaded & installed 3.0.5.  Unfortunately,
the new version gave me heaps of grief with a TQRChart component that was on
a couple of reports - would no longer compile because "QRChart was compiled
with a different version of QuickReport".  Tried downloading source code for
TeeChart from TeeMach so I could recompile, but for some reason could not
get a successful compile and ended up reinstalling QR 3.0 from the D4
install disk to get back to square one :-(.  Must have been having a bad
hair day or something.

Thanks again,
Michael

        From the Delphi FAQ

        QUESTION:
        I'm having problems with PrintPreview and Paper Size in
QuickReports, Is
        there a fix for this?

        ANSWER:

        Yes. QuickReports upgrade to version 3.0.5 for Delphi 4 users is now
        available from the QuSoft web page at:
        http://www.qusoft.com/scripts/download.dll. The file is called
QR305SD4.EXE.
        This is the version which shipped with Delphi 5. This version
includes some
        significant bug fixes, including issues with custom page sizes,
qr2demo, DIV
        function, title length, expression wizard and pop-up menu items
(right mouse
        click).

        Thanks James.  I've had a look at www.qusoft.com
<http://www.qusoft.com>
        but couldn't find anything that seemed to fit the description.
Perhaps I
        didn't look hard enough, so I'll try again.

        Cheers,
        Michael

                I had a similar problem with QR. I upgraded a project from
D3 to D4
        and got
                similar problems to your one. There is a patch on the
website (Can't
                remember the site off hand) that fixed your problem, but I
kept
        getting
                random AV's so in the end we reverted to D3 and are going to
try
        D5.... I
                digress, so I would recommend that you try the patch first
if you
        haven't
                already.

                My apologies for posting this here, but I posted to
        [EMAIL PROTECTED]
                <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>  at 13:44 and still haven't
seen my
        posting
                come through...

                I have asked this same question on the
                borland.public.delphi.reporting-charting newsgroup, but have
not had
        any
                response so hope that someone here can help.

                When user changes something from the Printer Setup button on
the
        QuickReport
                Preview screen (e.g. Print from page 1 to page 2) and then
prints
        the report
                from the Preview screen, it prints one page and then
completely
        freezes the
                computer (requires ctrl-alt-del to escape).  The Print
Progress
        dialog shows
                that it freezes at 49%.  But if the user just chooses to
print
        without
                changing the Printer Setup, it prints the whole report fine.

                The code below is rather messy (full of try/except,
try/finally as
        we were
                trying to trap what was going wrong).  Does anyone out there
have
        any
                suggestions???

                procedure TfrmReportSelection.doGrossProfitReport;
                begin

                  try

                    try

                      Screen.Cursor := crHourGlass;
                      try
                        frmGrossProfit :=
TfrmGrossProfit.Create(Application);
                        with frmGrossProfit do begin

                          Screen.Cursor := crDefault;
                          Application.ProcessMessages;
                          rptGrossProfit.Prepare;

                          try

                            with rptGrossProfit.QRPrinter.Create do begin
                              PrinterIndex := -1;
                              rptGrossProfit.Page.PaperSize := PaperSize;
                              rptGrossProfit.PrinterSettings.OutputBin :=
OutputBin;
                            end;

                            rptGrossProfit.PreviewModal;
                            Close;

                          finally

                            rptGrossProfit.QRPrinter.Free;
                            
                          end;
                          rptGrossProfit.QRPrinter := nil;
                        end;
                      finally
                        frmGrossProfit.Free;

                      end;

                    except
                      on E: Exception do
                      ShowMessage(E.Message);

                    end;

                  finally

                    Screen.Cursor := crDefault;

                  end;

                end;


                TIA,
