Hi,
I have a hierachical Grid with 25 datasource for inner grid.
A lot of them are set visible = false if they have no data.
I must export them to pdf. But I need page footer header with different layout base on the User.
And i had hard time trying to export them using the documentation .
This is my 1rst time using the telerik report.
So i will ask so simple stupid question, to learn what i must do and where i m going with this.
So question may evolve.
1/. Is it possible to have conditional element?
I saw conditional formating but what i want to achieve seems a bit more difficult.
- Exemple: Displaying adress as in the invoice report template
If i have Adress 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 .
If i Create text box Label and Value and stack them , How can i make them hidden if there is no value?
If instead i concatenate the adress in SQL , How do i Use my 'string.Replace("\r\n", "<br />")' ?
Is there a way to do stuff with out this WYSIWYG ?
2/. Is there a Way to have contidional table ?
I have a lot of nested grid I hide them if they are empty.
How can i do that in a report? Is the report going to save some room even if the element is hidden ?
Is there a way to bind the grid to the page in code behind ?
3/. Is there any code behind somewhere i can write some control logic ?
4/. How to achieve Condition Layout ?
An other logo , change Blue to red , an other companies name ?
Can I store all of this in DB and Get the images text or color form it ?
I know i have a lot of question. You dont have to answer them all.
You can pick one and go in deept. Or just a list of { "yes", "no" , "NotThatWay" }.
The only thing i need to know is :
Is this possible to achiev it with Telerik report ?
I will do all the research i just need to be in the right direction!
Thank you for your time.

Pierre LEBON

Hi Pierre,
The code library project you referenced relates to RadGrid control that is part of UI for ASP.NET AJAX. In Telerik Reporting, for displaying the data in a table layout you can use Table/CrossTab/List item. It is a Data item that can also contain inner data items.
You can show/hide/apply different styles to the report items dynamically using conditional formatting rules or bindings - check this forum post for more detailed information.
To avoid empty space after some items are hidden you can follow the approach suggested in Collapse the container when hiding child report items kb article. The main idea is to set container's height in the designer to a very small value. It will automatically grow to fit its content.
In general, it is not recommended to change the report definition at run-time. In case, there is a specific need to create the reports with code, it is recommended first to test your scenario in the Designer and then review the automatically generated code in .Designer.cs(vb) file that you can use as a sample and modify according to your requirements.
