  Hi,
  
  I discovered that I can call
  frxReport1.DataSets.Add()
  prior to calling
  frxReport1.DesignReport()
  
  That does not work, when calling
  frxReport1.ShowReport(true).
  Is there something that will work for that?
  
  Thanks,
  
  David

  Hi,
  
  I want end users to create and edit reports. I have three TDataSets and three TfrxDBDataSets. I have no restrictions set. I load the relevant queries into my TDataSets, prior to launching the report.
  
  If I call
  frxReport1.ShowReport(true)
  and then click Edit Page, all of the File - New options are disabled. Report - Variables, Styles, and Options are disabled. I can click Report - Data, and I get a list of my three Report DataSets. I can check them. If I open the Data Tree, I can see my three data sets, with my columns. If I save the report, close it, and go back into it, I have to go through those same steps.
  
  If I call
  frxReport1.DesignReport()
  the designer opens and everything is enabled. If I click Report - Data, I get a dialog captioned "Connections." There are no connections listed and I cannot see my TfrxDBDataSets.
  
  I do not want the user to create a connection to the database. I want the user to access the three TfrxDBDataSets only. Is it possible to grant end-users this access? If so, how?
  
  Thanks,
  
  David

  Does TfrxDesigner.Standalone = False?
