Hi,

We have Quick Reports (sigh) and my client wants me to take a report as
Quick Reports generates it, and send it to a popular document format, such
as HTML, PDF or RTF.

I've tried using QR's ExportToFilter, but found this function wasn't
recognised. Seems to be because we have QR standard 3.5.1, along with a mix
of old versions of QR's on the palette, as well as used in forms (one of the
old versions has qrHTML and source etc.) The report I'm working with uses
QReportOne rather than QuickReport, and I can't get it to recognise
ExportToFilter.

Also tried downloading a trial version of Pragnaan QR Export Filters, but
can't get this to work, even though I've tried to convert the report to
QuickReports (as opposed to QReportOne which Pragnaan didn't recognise), but
couldn't get that working either.
I've read that QR's filters are not that hot, even if I could get them
working, which is why I was trying Pragnaan.

Questions:
* What's the vote for most widely used format for document sharing? PDF,
HTML, RTF, XML....(we're talking PC users with little computer know-how)
* Are there any Delphi libraries that would enable the producing of my
simple report? (just text and one logo) e.g. started looking at Delphi's
internet page producers to make an HTML document, but I must make an HTML
template and I don't know HTML (I can see that look of shock). Or can I use
Delphi's RTFengine thingy?

What my client should do: Buy me ReportBuilder Enterprise & Pragnaan's
export filters - then life would be sweet!

Thanks for any suggestions.

Dave
