i'm looking for a reporting engine to replace Delphi 5's QuickReports.

Requirements

• free (i'm not paying to find out if it works)
• open source (documentation is always lacking)
• does not have to be registered on the client computer (no COM) (single executable depoyment)
• does not ship as a seaparate file (no dll) (single executable deployment)

Some things i've looked at:

• mshtml
• crystal
• nevrona rave

try free-report,

FreeReport 2.3 consists of a report engine, a designer, and a previewer. Its capabilities are comparable to QuickReport3 and ReportBuilder 3.52. FreeReport 2.3 works with Delphi 2/3/4/5/6/7/2005 and 2006 and C++ Builder 1/3/4/2005/2006. Freeware; royalty-free full source code.

If free means free to you, then you might want to look at the open source project Report Manager.

If free means free to distribute your work, then you should look at FastReports. It's the advanced version of FreeReport mentioned previously. FastReports is incredibly flexible. It's lightweight and completely compiled into your program. It incorporates a scripting language. It is all Delphi code. The report files it creates are fairly readable XML files. It can export the results in a number of formats.
