Re: Report Writer to Replace Fast-Report 3?

I found the lack of a prescribed and practical migration path from 2.5x to 3.0 especially annoying. Without going over old ground, it left me in an embarrasing and 'expensive to fix' situation with many of my users.

I am about to dump QR, and was seriously looking at FastReport. It seemed to have what I needed, including an end user report designer for a reasonable price.


What I thought I'd do was rewrite my reports into FreeReport, and then if that turned out okay, upgrade to FastReport to get the extra features. Now after this discussion, I'm wary that this will be two rewrites instead of one. Got any advice on this?
