We have used ReportBuilder successfully with D5, and its 3rd party library TExtraDevices for PDF/Excel. We have never used Rave report writer. Our new projects will use Delphi 2006. I realize this is a 'depends' question, but which report writer is better - Rave or ReportBuilder? Are there ex ReportBuilder users that have moved to Rave? Does Rave have PDF/Excel natively (w/out a 3rd party lib)? TIA--patrick Back to top Ken Randall Guest Posted: Wed Oct 11, 2006 1:28 am    Post subject: Re: Rave or Report Builder?

We use Rave reports to do a lot of reports from Delphi(not using Rave Designer). So far I haven't seen any other reporting tool that does that. We also have used Rave designer and it does its job ok, not as good as others IMO. Haven't used ReportBuilder.

But frankly, if I was choosing again, I'd be having a serious look at List & Label (see Nicks blog) as it provides the same report components for VCL and .NET, giving an upgrade path we don't have with ReportBuilder.
