Reports n Stuff

[Oppenhiemer]

Subject is vague I know, but I have a couple of questions. Firstly, I am having problems using QRCreateList in Delphi 6. I have searched on the internet for the correct syntax etc, even downloaded a demo of how to use it. However, I am getting the error :

"[Error] MAIN32.PAS(173): Types of actual and formal var parameters must be identical"

The example I have found (and which is causing problems) takes the following form :

QRCreateList(aReport, Self, qryCountry, 'Country Report', FieldList);

I realise that this is an old example (for Quick Reports 2 and Delphi 1-3) but the Quick report help file also uses same form for calling procedure. Is there a better way using Quick Reports that comes with Delphi 6 ?

Second, I am looking for the best way to allow users to modify their own reports (A GUI method would be preferable - but Im open to suggestions.) I did download "RepoEdit - QuickReports Editor" but this is a bit buggy, but is freeware (which is great.)

Many thanks..

Opp.
