I did such an upgrade D5 to D2007, to get Rave Reports which is superior to Quick Reports. Had no issues (was not using database stuff and hardly any 3rd party components). I wouldn't go back! I noticed that the current D2007 upgrade offers a free version of Quick Reports.

I've been running Delphi 5 for a long while now, still with some projects using Paradox 5.0 database and the BDE. Its come time to migrate them to SQL, Microsofts SQL server, MySQL, and was looking at Firebird as well, since the coming and going of Interbase and Codegear hadn't really had the committment of Borland. Right now, I'm considering the leap to DElphi2007, and the reports of stability, interfacing , changes to the packaging, haven't got me really excited. Also, quick reports isn't installed in Delhi2007, so theres another major change to the code. If I could get hold of the SQL components update to Delphi 5, I'd certainly try that first, as the investment in the change has to be outweighed by the return. Question.. does anyone know how I can get the update package for Delphi 5? Its a way of crossing a canyon in two bounds.. With that sort of effort, upgrading becomes daunting for a relatively inexperienced code writer.

Since i am new to this particual functionalty? regards Vik I have used Intraweb in a couple of projects with success. I probably wouldn't start a clean sheet project in it, but for using existing Delphi code it is hard to beat.
