Converting a rave report using fastreport 5 and delphi XE7

RSPeter

Hi,

Im trying to convert an old rave report but cant get it to work.
I've added ConverterRB2FR to uses but when compiling i get this error:
[dcc32 Fatal Error] ConverterRB2FR.pas(23): F1026 File not found: 'C:\Users\Peter\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\Projects\frxDCtrl.dcu'
It also seems to miss frxBDEComponents, frxADOComponents and frxIBXComponents. (all the other frx components looks OK)

Where can i get the needed components or is there a different way i can convert my old report?

Thank you,
Peter

It seems you use FR Embarcadero Edition which doesn't supports dialog controls and internal datasets. Use FR Trial for converting

Thank you for your reply gpi, i will try the demo version.

As a side note to fast report staff the comparison sheet here: http://www.fast-report.com/en/products/rep...re-matrix.html/ states that the embarcadero version should be able to convert rave reports, which obviously isnt the case.

Ok so i tried the demo version, but no luck im afraid.
It seems like the demo version is only a pre-compiled .exe with a load of FR3 files as examples?
When i open delphi it shows no signs of any fastreports, neither do i find any bpl (or other) files related to fastreports if i search for them?
