I have a client that upgraded to GP 2013 and Management reporter with Windows 7 OS. They have hundreds of FRX reports saved as .FRD that they need to view from time to time. Is there any application that works with windows 7 that can open .FRD files.

Thank you all, I installed FRX 6.7 SP12 on Windows 7 and it worked .
Please never hesitate to keep us updated,
Thank you all, I will check with my client
The viewer shall work ... several people have tried that and it just worked.
Mr. Richard has already confirmed that,
FRx has always worked with W7. You just need SP12 for W7 64 bit. In your case, they are not running FRx to pull data out of GP they just want to read the FRD files.
Will it work with Windows 7 ? My understanding that FRX is not compatible with OS 7.
Check this out, Windows 7 and FRX
I have never tried running FRX on windows 7 64 bit as it is not compatible. Although, some people on the link above claim that they have tried the viewer and were able to launch the .frd files.
Frx still works with GP 2013 with a little trick, however all you need is the FRx Drilldown viewer to read FRD files. So I would just install the FRX and use the Drilldown viewer.
