Calling Query Designer from Home Grown Report Viewer form

edited July 2007 in General
We have created a form that contains a ppViewer ... and displays report
template names from the ReportExplorer data table as well as *.RTM files
located in the File System.

Everything works fine, regarding the selection and display of reports into
the ppViewer.

We want to give the user dynamic flexibility to alter Calc, Search and Sort
rules.

Is there a way to inherit the Query Designer (hiding the Tables and Fields
tabs) so that the user can modify the display / content rules ... or do have
to create a Query Designer look-alike from scratch?

Thanks, Patrick

    - here is an example of launching the Query Designer via code.

    - if you need to descend from the Query Designer, check out
    daQueryDesigner.pas.
