IBO and TDataset Datasets?

Hi,
I've been looking at FastReports with using the TIB_Dataset componets in mind. However, I also have other projects that DON'T use TIB_Datasets (they use TDataset) that I'd like to use FastReports with.

Has anyone done this at all??

I'm using the Demo version at the moment so I can't switch the {$DEFINE IBO} flag on to test it out, however, I have tried FreeReports with this switch and it only provides either TDataset OR TIB_Dataset compatability.

If this is also the behaviour of FastReports, has anyone managed to get around this limitation??

thanks
Mark

    The way around is to compile 2 frlib versions
    load whichever one you want in the ide when required. tip do your own installs
    manually into 2 different fr folders compile 1 version if bpls are stored under a seperate dir like d7\projects\bpl move the bpl to the frsource dir, remove all search path refs for fr from delph environment. repeat process for second.
    regards ;)
