OpenReport problem

I would like to let the user create and modify a new report in my application.
The report is created with
Set r = CreateReport(, "report_template")

Unfortunately the result r is an empty report and not the template.
Does anybody know why?

Also it would be very helpful if the reports itself could be stored in the database.
Is there any solution for this ?
 
Do you have a real good reason to allow users to publish data in formatted
reports? Would it suffice to allow users to easily query data records and
send the results to Word or Excel where they can format them?
 
If you have power users that can create reports, then why not just let them
create them? Why do you have to re-write a report wizard? I find nothing
"instable" about allowing users to query the information they need and then
sending it to Word or Excel.

too instable. I prefer the solution with creating and modifying reports.
Only users with special permission are allowed to do this.
