TFPRreport and TFPJSONReport need some clarifications. Maybe MVC can confirm/correct the below:

TFPRreport:
- Report design can be setup by code *only*.
- TFPReportData components must be linked to TFRReport by code
- Can invoke the IDE integrated editor to design reports and open/save them from/to file. But they are useless to TFPRreport.

TFPJSONReport:
- Report design can be setup by code.
- Can load/save report designs from/to file/stream/json (discarding design data if any). - TFPReportData components have to be linked to TFPJSONReport by code (sample code is needed when the report is loaded from file) - Can invoke the IDE integrated editor to design reports that are loaded/saved from/to the lfm only. - The IDE integrated editor cannot open a report designed by the standalone designer, or save a file to be used by the standalone designer. Note: Actually it can currently open a file, but possibly with nasty side effects.
