Andrzej 0 Posted May 11, 2022 (edited) I try using old FreeReport with new Delphi. Fr examples use BDE which is not in my new RAD. It uses BDE dataset and query. I am starting write own dataset. But still query. It seems to be problematic due to SQL interpreter. I can use other query, for example standard query with my dataset? Or can be standard TQuery but dataset must handle SQL?

Serge_G 87 Posted May 11, 2022 Reflexion 1- as I remember , FreeReport is an ancestor or fork of FastReport Reflexion 2- BDE can still be installed (you have to download it from your registered product panel Share this post Link to post
Fr0sT.Brutal 900 Posted May 11, 2022 There is no standard query or table, only basic TDataset. What FastReport did is create their own basic query class and provide a bunch of adapters to particular query classes (BDE, ADO, IBX etc). However, all years I've worked with FR, I never needed particular FRQuery. I just prepare datasets inside my app and provide them to FR engine. Probably you too won't really need exactly queries Share this post Link to post
