[I wrote the same in SF forum, just lightly edited]

Since Lazarus revision 11950 [Thu Sep 6 19:47:34 2007 UTC (5 weeks, 6
days ago)] LazReport is included and maintained within Lazarus itself,
you can find LazReport in directory lazarus/components/lazreport, some
bugs were fixed since the last SF file release, and localization is
now possible, I advice you to try a more recent version than the last
sf file release.

Since LazReport is now included in Lazarus, it might be good idea to
submit bugreports in Lazarus bug tracker at
http://www.freepascal.org/mantis/main_page.php under project: Lazarus
>> projects, category LazReport.

I think however that a more recent version might not solve the problem
because it apparently had issues with what is into the title property,
if you could add that to a bug report or even better the report file
lrf itself it would be nice.

Bugreports is very good idea.

Now l programing in Kylix3.
Kylix is dead horse.

Lazarus and bug tracker look very good.
Now l try programing in lazarus.

Thanks  jesur.
