QuickReport is a banded report generator written in 100% Delphi code that integrates very closely with Delphi and C++Builder. Design reports within the Delphi IDE using the form designer as a report designer. QuickReport has been chosen by Borland as the standard reporting tool for Delphi and C++Builder. The Standard Edition distributed free of charge with Delphi and C++Builder. QuickReport 5 is compatible with QuickReport 4 report designs, and existing applications will run without changes. Most of the visible changes affect previewing and exporting reports, with a few new options for band behavior. Several new controls are introduced, including three that support double-byte characters. Invisible changes include more defensive handling of network printers, and less interaction with printers. Otherwise, we added new functions：Alternative report viewer, New controls, New functions for QuickReport's expression evaluator, and QRDesign.

version 5.00更新功能如下:

- Events to control and customise standard preview
- Allow printing straight from the printer-setup button.
- A new event of the composite report is called whenever a sub-report starts, allowing better control.
- Option to set the default extension in preview. For instance, PDF instead of QRP
- Copy to clipboard button on standard preview form
- New property for printables - 'ExportAs' = ( etNumeric, etText, etFormula, etLabel ) for XL.
- It is possible to limit the number of pages in the preview, and a 'Cancel' button is added to the standard preview
