Hi Greg,
Many thanks for your reply to my questions.
I had a quick look at ActiveReports but once I saw the $499 price tag I didn't bother going any further. That's way too much to spend on my little freeware program! The only reason I was looking at Crystal Reports is because I already have it from another (paying) project.
I wonder if it's possible to use VB's DataReport with SQLite? It should be if I went down the ODBC path, but like you I'm not really comfortable with that. I wonder if I can programmatically pass the data to DataReport...
I'll look into using your wrapper too.

Hi Murray, Can I make a suggestion or two. Firstly I wouldn't use Crystal Report. It sucks and I hate it , have a look at ActiveReports from DataDynamics Version 2.0 is fantastic and very light on it's feet (small). The price is great as well.
Also ActiveReport supports ADO , DAO, RDO and XML. You can pragmatically send it a array and bind to that.
With the ODBC driver, I'm not a big fan of installing drivers (ODBC) during setup or supplying them with the application. That's why the wrapper I wrote doesn't use them.
