How are you attempting to do this?

Based on my research, the ExportToFilter method is not available in a
Composite report....:-(

Based on the help files, I thought you could handle it manually through
the preview screen but I don't see that option either.

The only way I could get any filter to work was:

1.  Add the QRExport to your uses clause.
2.  On the button that runs the report add this type of code:

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
Var
 AExportFilter : TQRHTMLDocumentFilter;
begin

 AExportFilter := TQRHTMLDocumentFilter.Create('C:\Dump\Report.HTM');
 Try
   Form2.QuickRep1.ExportToFilter(AExportFilter);

 finally
  AExportFilter.Free;
 end;
end;

Supposedly you can also export to a CVS file and a Text file but I do
not find any magic word to use to replace the TQRHTMLDocumentFilter
type.

Maybe someone else can enlighten the group on this.

Good Luck!
