Freepascal/Lazarus decimal rounding vs Excel rounding

I found this thread quite useful, regarding decimal rounding in freepascal/Lazarus.

This article also describes a unit somebody has written that handles decimal values more accurately (and also more like .net does (much as it hurts me to say this!))

FortesReports: Misc info

This post will accumulate info on FortesReports, the reporting tool used in Lazarus/FreePascal.

Once enough info has been collected and cleaned up, it will be passed on to the Lazarus group.
------------------------

- Grouping and ORDER BY
Groups in a report do not force a sort by that field.
If you have a SELECT f1, f2 FROM dooda ORDER BY f2
and create a report which groups by f1, you will end with multiple breaks, as f1 changes values while moving through the recordset.
To avoid that, you will need to SELECT f1, f2 FROM dooda ORDER BY f1, f2
