No FastReport Studio on main website anymore?!

I came to the site today to download the latest version of the ActiveX/COM version 4.9.314, apparently released on November 19th, 2012. That's just a couple months ago. I was glad to see an update.

But then I went to the main website and saw that no FastReport Studio ActiveX/COM was available for sale, download or anything. I know ActiveX is technically an old technology, but a lot of us still use it and we'd all be very sad if it went away. >

    The page is still there :

    Indeed strange, the product should be marked as deprecated minimum 6month before removing it...

    Yeah, I had found that, but I think it's still there because someone forgot to remove it. If you click on Buy, it doesn't work. The Download link's still there though. >

    Seems the product is discontinued.
    What alternatives do we still have for activex?

    I haven't found any that's any good. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> This is the best one around. There used to be one called ActiveReports, but they have moved to .NET and there hasn't been an update in years. I think Crystal Reports still supports ActiveX, but they're really expensive. I guess at some point we'll all have to move to C#.NET. :/[/img]
