Building a custom report

We use FastReport for building our reports but RV does not have a wrapper

for this, in fastreport I can use RXRichEdit but it does not show any lines

or jpeg pictures added by RV. So I was wondering if it is possible to build

a custom report using RV, I had a look at RVReportHelper but there is no

preview facility with it.

So I was thinking is it possible to copy the contents of a RV document to a

TCustomRichView object created in code or a non visible RichViewEdit, I then

add my additional content for the report using the Add functions provided by

RV and then use RVPrint and RVPrintPreview with this new TCustomRichView

object to print the report.

Is this the best way to do this or is there a better solution?

Etienne.
