I would like to print my QuickReports to PDF instead of printer, and I don't
want to show the box where I can select the filename. The filename will
always be "c:pdfActive.pdf". How can I do that without buying any
components? I've got the Adobe PDF writer.

If you have a linux box anywhare on your network, you can simply set up a
samba print queue which accepts print output and automatically creates PDF
files. To do this you use ghostscript; google for "ghostscript".

I have found this useful for some time to provide customers with viewable
reports over the internet. I set up a directory accessible over the
internet via password and set up my PDF print queue to this directory so
that I can simply print from quick report to the PDF printer and
immediately the output is ready for viewing.
