1. Description
==============
This components set contains printable components for 
QuickReport 2.0K which do all the same that their QR analogs, but print well 
with Autostretch, Background Color, Frames, WordWrap, make accurate expanding 
processing even in cases of multiple Autostretch controls within one Band. 
The Components Set now includes the following controls: 
TPIQRLabel
TPIQRDBText
TPIQRExpr
TPIQRMemo
TPIQRRichText
TPIQRDBRichText. 

These controls are the direct descendants of their QR analogs so any 
incompatibility should not take place if the native controls are substituted 
in the existing reports.


2. System requirements
======================
Delphi 3 Update Pack 2, QuickReport 2.0K


3. Installation
===============
To install the components set:

a. Bring the files from the ZIP-Archive to a single folder.
b. Choose the item "Component/Install packages" in Delphi IDE menu.
c. Click  "ADD" button  in the dialog window.
d. Choose file PIQRCtP2.bpl in the appearing Open file dialog.
e. If You are building the application with option "Build with runtime packages", 
   copy file PIQRCtP2.bpl into the Windows System folder.


4. Whats New in this release
============================
In this release
---------------
1. For QuickReport 3 only:
   In case of stretching, controls fill the background of the Band now.
2. Bug fixed:
   In invisible report's form enlargement of the Font's size doesn't cause 
   enlargement of the control's Height even in case when new height of
   letters more than control's height. As consequence the text of control
   doesn't render.

In v. 1.03
----------
1. Bug fixed:
   Exporting with some types of filters give inaccurate results when the value
   of control's Alignment property is other than taLeftJustify.
2. OnPrint event of the TPIQRDBText control is triggered for memo fields also.
   This feature is available since v. 1.02 but has not been described.
3. Controls with Autostretch=True placed in a Footer Band or Band with 
   AlignToBottom=True are printed as non-autostretched now (instead to give
   unexpected results).
4. Frames of RichText controls are printed according to the STYLE property.

In v. 1.02
---------------
1. Bug fixed: 
   Sometimes the control stretched the parent Band not enough well. The mistake took 
   place not often and had random nature.
2. Now the frames are printed according to the STYLE property. In the previous releases 
   they were printed only as psSolid.
3. The controls derived from TQRCustomLabel have steady Captions.
4. The RichText controls do not gain a focus any longer.
5. The printing of the controls derived from TQRCustomLabel is quicker now.
6. For QR3.04 only. Supposedly the controls derived from TQRCustomLabel with 
   AutoStretch=True do not inherit the unstability from the native controls 
   any longer as it is described in chapter 'Known problems':
        "The controls derived from TQRCustomLabel with AutoStretch=True in design-time 
        Preview sometimes cause the "List index out of bounds" exception with possible
        following AV. This feature is derived from the QR native controls. In run-time
        everything is OK."

In v. 1.01
----------
The printing behaviour of Autostretch-control after entering a new column/page has
been changed. Now the continue of printing is to be performed from the top of Band. 

5. Known problems
=================

Problem:
RichText controls  in Preview under NT do not render in the bottom of the page.
The printing is OK. We have found that the native QR RichText controls have the 
same features.
Possibility of solving:
