Migrating a project from FR5 to FR6

Installing FR6 has uninstalled FR5. Is there any steps I need to do to upgrade projects and reports to use the FR6?

    G'day Gordon,

    From memory there are a couple of deprecated Properties on some FastReport Objects. I can't recall which at the moment, but I do remember getting error messages when the Projects were opened first time. Clicking "ignore" got us to the stage where we could rebuild the Apps, and after a "save" all was good from there on.

    AFAIK the FR3 files are fully compatible, so there is no conversion step.

    But! We also did a full backup beforehand, just-in-case!

    I'll dig out the info and update when I can.

    Cheers, Paul

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
