Value Fund
Dear shareholder,
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
According to popular belief, the last six months have been particularly
favorable for the financial markets.
The truth of the matter is that it's been a long, uphill struggle for the
diversified investor. That's because the stock market's dramatic rise reflects
the performance of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which has been fueled by
only a small number of large-capitalization growth stocks and technology
companies. In the bond market this year, while many corporate and foreign bonds
have provided relatively attractive returns, the first quarter of 1999 was the
worst quarter in history for U.S. Treasury securities.(1)
Recently, though, signs of change have been emerging that confirm the
importance of a well-diversified portfolio. While investors focusing on
large-cap growth and technology stocks may have achieved superior short-term
returns, they may have also dramatically increased their exposure to potential
risks. If recent economic and market trends persist, previously out-of-favor
stocks may continue to rise.
Specifically, U.S. economic growth has continued to surpass most analysts'
expectations and the breadth of the market's positive performance has begun to
widen. This has raised concerns that inflationary pressures may re-emerge. In
fact, the Federal Reserve Board recently indicated its readiness to raise
short-term interest rates as an inflation-fighting measure. Looking outside of
the United States, many foreign economies also appear to be on the mend. The
impact of these changes, as it applies to your fund, is discussed more fully
inside by your portfolio manager.
(over, please)
1. Foreign investing entails higher expenses and risks, such as foreign currency
fluctuations, economic and political instability, and differences in accounting
standards.

You may also have wondered about the impact of the Year 2000 problem on your
investments. While we cannot predict the final outcome, we are pleased that many
companies and governments appear to be making progress toward avoiding a major
disruption. For our part, OppenheimerFunds is in the advanced stages of our Y2K
project, and we have successfully participated in industry-wide tests.
Meanwhile, we intend to maintain the disciplined investment approach that
has been helping Oppenheimer funds shareholders for more than 40 years as they
pursue their financial goals. Our longstanding experience has taught us that
while investment fads come and go, prudent diversification remains key to
successful investing. In fact, it is an essential part of what makes
OppenheimerFunds The Right Way to Invest.
Sincerely,
/s/ Bridget A. Macaskill

An interview with your Fund's manager
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How did Oppenheimer Quest Opportunity Value Fund perform during the six-month
period that ended April 30, 1999?
Despite a very difficult environment for value-oriented stocks, we are generally
pleased with the Fund's performance. However, we have continued to be
disappointed that the extreme difference in valuations between growth-oriented
stocks and value-oriented stocks has remained at historically wide levels. We
attribute the value sector's relative weakness to investors' persistent
preference for large-cap names with predictable earnings over more mature
companies selling at attractive prices.
To what do you attribute the Fund's performance?
Our stock selection strategy worked well, in our opinion. As value managers who
look at stocks on a company-by-company basis, rather than according to market or
industry trends, we recognize that we must be patient when market sentiment is
against us. This approach proved its mettle over the past six months, when some
of our larger positions began to receive wider attention from investors.

An interview with your Fund's manager
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For example, financial services giant Citigroup, Inc. rallied when investors
recognized that the integration of Travelers Corp. and Citibank was going well
after a shaky start. In addition, Citigroup, Inc. benefited from
better-than-expected economic conditions in Latin America, where the company has
an extensive presence. Similarly, McDonald's Corp. shares rose when overseas
earnings remained strong and the company took steps to improve its domestic
operations.
Given the wide disparity in valuations within the stock market, have you been
finding attractive values in companies you want to own?
Surprisingly, no. We made relatively few new purchases over the past six months.
That's primarily because the types of companies we seek--those that have good
control over their businesses and are profitable--are generally expensive
relative to their earnings. In our view, good values have been hard to find. We
believe that, at current price levels, the stock market expects the U.S.
economy to remain robust with low inflation, and that any disappointments will
cause highly valued stocks to decline. In our opinion, few investors appear to
be thinking about the risks of such stocks.
6 Oppenheimer Quest Opportunity Value Fund
<PAGE>
How have you managed the portfolio in this environment?
As value managers, we've been paying close attention to the price levels at
which the portfolio's holdings are trading relative to their average valuations
over the past ten years. If stocks are selling at the high end of that range, we
look for a compelling reason why. If we can't find one, we'll sell or reduce
that position.
What stocks contributed most positively to performance?
We've already discussed Citigroup, Inc. and McDonald's Corp., which performed
quite well. We also received attractive returns from UAL Corp., which was up
sharply in the first quarter of 1999 based on analysts' expectations of higher
earnings. The stock was selling at about six times earnings before the rally,
and rose to about eight times earnings as of April 30.
Strong returns were also provided by media conglomerate Time Warner, Inc.
The company's stock rose in response to merger and acquisition activity in the
cable television industry, where Time Warner, Inc. is a leader. In addition, the
company announced an alliance with a major telecommunications company to offer
telephone service for residential customers over its cable systems.

An interview with your Fund's manager
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What stocks were most disappointing over the past six months?
Mortgage originator Freddie Mac, the Fund's second largest stock position as of
April 30, declined amid investors' concerns that new government regulations
might adversely affect earnings. In our view, these concerns are largely
unjustified, as evidenced by the company's strong earnings growth in the first
quarter of 1999. We continue to believe that the company represents extremely
good value.
A large food and tobacco company also disappointed. When we originally
bought the stock, it appeared that the company had solved its litigation
problems. Yet, the federal government recently announced that it is considering
suing the tobacco industry. In addition, for the first time, this particular
company lost a suit brought by an individual customer. In the wake of this news,
we eliminated the position from the portfolio.
1. Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends
and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods
shown. Class A returns include the current maximum initial sales charge of
5.75%. Class A shares were first publicly offered on 1/3/89. The Fund's maximum
sales charge for Class A shares was lower prior to 11/24/95, so actual
performance may have been higher. Class B returns include the applicable
contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 1% (since inception on
9/1/93). Class C returns for the one-year result include the contingent deferred
sales charge of 1%. Class C shares have an inception date of 9/1/93. Class Y
shares were first publicly offered on 12/16/96 and are not available for sale to
individual shareholders. Class A shares are subject to an annual 0.25%
asset-based sales charge while Class B and C shares are subject to an annual
0.75% asset-based sales charge. An explanation of the different performance
calculations is in the Fund's prospectus.
2. Portfolio is subject to change. Percentages are as of April 30, 1999, and are

What is your outlook for the Fund?
We are optimistic that the Fund will provide better returns when investors once
again turn their attention to value, as we believe they inevitably will. In the
meantime, we have maintained the highly disciplined investment approach that has
historically produced excellent risk-adjusted returns. We are confident that our
value-oriented approach is economically sensible and should continue to support
attractive long-term returns. In fact, maintaining our discipline amid
unfavorable market conditions is a key component of what makes OppenheimerFunds
The Right Way to Invest.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Quest Opportunity Value Fund (the Fund), a series of Oppenheimer
Quest For Value Funds, is a diversified open-end management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund's
investment objective is to seek growth of capital. The Fund's investment advisor
is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). The Manager has entered into a
sub-advisory agreement with OpCap Advisors. The Fund offers Class A, Class B,
Class C and Class Y shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales
charge. Class B and Class C shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge. All classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets and
voting privileges, except that each class has its own expenses directly
attributable to that class and exclusive voting rights with respect to matters
affecting that class. Classes A, B and C have separate distribution and/or
service plans. No such plan has been adopted for Class Y shares. Class B shares
will automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the date of
purchase. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued at the close of the New
York Stock Exchange on each trading day. Listed and unlisted securities for
which such information is regularly reported are valued at the last sale price
of the day or, in the absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or
the last sale price on the prior trading day. Long-term and short-term
"non-money market" debt securities are valued by a portfolio pricing service
approved by the Board of Trustees. Such securities which cannot be valued by an
approved portfolio pricing service are valued using dealer-supplied valuations
provided the Manager is satisfied that the firm rendering the quotes is reliable
and that the quotes reflect current market value, or are valued under
consistently applied procedures established by the Board of Trustees to
determine fair value in good faith. Short-term "money market type" debt
securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at cost (or
last determined market value) adjusted for amortization to maturity of any
premium or discount.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily to
each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
22 Oppenheimer Quest Opportunity Value Fund
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
================================================================================
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income or excise tax provision is required.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trustees' Compensation. The Fund has adopted a nonfunded retirement plan for the
Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees
paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the six months ended
April 30, 1999, a provision of $196,503 was made for the Fund's projected
benefit obligations resulting in an accumulated liability of $279,768 as of
April 30, 1999.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Classification of Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment income (loss)
and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax
purposes. The character of the distributions made during the year from net
investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate
characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of
dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may
differ from the fiscal year in which the income or realized gain was recorded by
the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other. Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the investments are
purchased or sold (trade date) and dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued on a daily basis. Realized gains
and losses on investments and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are
determined on an identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for federal
income tax purposes.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the investment
advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee of 1.00% of the first

million, 0.85% of the next $3.2 billion, 0.80% of the next $4 billion, and 0.75%
of average annual net assets in excess of $8 billion. The Fund's management fee
for the six months ended April 30, 1999 was 0.86% of the average annual net
assets for each class of shares.
The Manager pays OpCap Advisors (the Sub-Advisor) monthly an annual
fee based on the fee schedule set forth in the Prospectus. For the six months
ended April 30, 1999, the Manager paid $6,037,711 to the Sub-Advisor.
For the six months ended April 30, 1999, commissions (sales charges
paid by investors) on sales of Class A shares totaled $2,166,752, of which

4. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (continued)
The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan for Class A shares to
compensate OFDI for a portion of its costs incurred in connection with the
personal service and maintenance of shareholder accounts that hold Class A
shares. Under the Plan, the Fund pays an annual asset-based sales charge to OFDI
of 0.25% per year on Class A shares. The Fund also pays a service fee to OFDI of
0.25% per year. Each fee is computed on the average annual net assets of Class A
shares of the Fund, determined as of the close of each regular business day.
OFDI uses all of the service fee and a portion of the asset-based sales charge
to compensate brokers, dealers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly
for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers
that hold Class A shares. OFDI retains the balance of the asset-based sales
charge to compensate itself for its other expenditures under the Plan. During
the six months ended April 30, 1999, OFDI paid $190,317 to an affiliated
broker/dealer as compensation for Class A personal service and maintenance
expenses and retained $1,800,848 as compensation for Class A sales commissions
and service fee advances, as well as financing costs.
The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B and
Class C shares to compensate OFDI for its costs in distributing Class B and
Class C shares and servicing accounts. Under the Plans, the Fund pays OFDI an
annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B and Class C shares
for its services rendered in distributing Class B and Class C shares. OFDI also
receives a service fee of 0.25% per year to compensate dealers for providing
personal services for accounts that hold Class B and Class C shares. Each fee is
computed on the average annual net assets of Class B or Class C shares,
determined as of the close of each regular business day. During the six months
ended April 30, 1999, OFDI paid $62,510 and $29,409, respectively, to an
affiliated broker/dealer as compensation for Class B and Class C personal
service and maintenance expenses and retained $7,859,153 and $892,244,
respectively, as compensation for Class B and Class C sales commissions and
service fee advances, as well as financing costs. If either Plan is terminated
by the Fund, the Board of Trustees may allow the Fund to continue payments of
the asset-based sales charge to OFDI for distributing shares before the Plan was
terminated. As of April 30, 1999, OFDI had incurred excess distribution and
servicing costs of $38,834,991 for Class B and $3,931,670 for Class C.
