The built-in ActiveX object allows you to use MetaReport together with applications developed by third-party developers.

The distributive package includes a simple example written in Visual Basic and demonstrating the feature of controlling MetaReport from another application.

The built-in ActiveX object will allow you to implement the following features:

·

Start the specified report project using the report parameters dialog box set in the project;

·

Start the specified report project without using the report parameters dialog box. In this case you can send the necessary report parameters from your application. You can send a report directly to the printer or open it in the preview mode.

·

Get the list of available report projects.

·

Print specified report to file directly.

The features for editing a report project are not included in the existing ActiveX object on purpose.
