    Hi,

    I am not SRay, however, I have seen that he has asked for FR studio in another thread in this forum only a few weeks ago. So, I guess, the answer is "yes" - he is still using it.

    And it??s the same with us - we are developing our application in (classical, unmanaged) C++ using Microsoft Visual Studio. And yes, we are still using FastReport for COM, and we are very sad to see it go... by the way, I found no official statement on this up to now. I have already contacted FR support to get more information, but got no answer yet.

    Yes, I definitely am using it and will be for some time. I'm working on a major upgrade to my software where I'll be using FR COM/ActiveX extensively. At least it seems to be a mature product and probably doesn't have any bugs I can't easily work around. Apparently there is no support, but there are a lot of examples. If I were you, I'd get the latest version from their customer page while you can.

    I'm sure they had their reasons to stop selling it, but I can't think of why that would be, unless they just don't want the world to think they still support COM/ActiveX. You can simply "lock" the software and only fix a bug if needed, but not offer new features, etc., yet still make money from it. I mean, why not?

    Anyway, enough of my babbling. I need to get back to work. >
