Hmm, the picture of Quick Reports is emerging to be a rather unfavorable one. In any event you have all been so responsive and helpful. Although I am a Delphi neophyte, I will keep my eye on these forums to see if perhaps I can lend assistance in time.

I've had heaps of problems with quickreports/qrdesign on XP. In particular (default) network printers not being present and no printer installed - but have never seen this error (all my problems have been runtime).
