Embed Report Builder

Hi,
I am trying to find out if I can embed report builder into a Delphi 5
application.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks,
SDAlas, it isn't...
Neither the VS.NET designer, nor the Report Builder designer can be
integrated into custom applications. To make the matter worse, there isn't a
single extensibility hook in the Report Builder (not event command line
switches). It is pretty much "take as it-is or leave it" kind of a design
pattern. Very strange, considering the extensibility has been one of the RS
hallmarks since its first release. Currently, we are implementing a
home-grown ad hoc designer to this reason. Don't ask me how much fun we are
having implementing a WYSIWYG designer :-(
