HTML viewer has no 'word' export

[Al]

Hi,

I noticed that the 'word document' export option is missing from the HTML report viewer's export options - is there something I need to do to enable this?

Hi Al,

Please check Missing DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, XPS export options. The suggested settings must be applied in the Reporting REST service's project.

Hi Stef,

I have added references to 'DocumentFormat.OpenXml' and 'Telerik.Reporting.XpsRendering' + I have added the following to my web.config:

<runtime>
  <assemblyBinding>
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity name="System.Net.Http" culture="neutral" publicKeyToken="31BF3856AD364E35"/>
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-65535.65535.65535.65535" newVersion="4.0.0.0"/>
    </dependentAssembly>
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity name="DocumentFormat.OpenXml" culture="neutral" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35"/>
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="2.0.5022.0" newVersion="2.5.5631.0"/>
    </dependentAssembly>
  </assemblyBinding>
</runtime>

 

But I still don't see the export options - what else can I check?

...and the dll's are 'copy  local' and they do appear in the bin folder...

I'll upload a test project to a new support ticket

Hi Al,

Based on the project you attached in the support ticket #1083549, the required DocumentFormat.OpenXml assembly might be missing from the project's bin folder.

Make sure that CopyLocal is set to true in assembly's properties. In case, you need to use Open XML SDK of version greater than 2.0.5011.0, check if the binding redirect for the DocumentFormat.OpenXml.dll assembly is added correctly to the web.config - Deploy Telerik Reporting with newer OpenXML SDK version.

I got it working by using this:

<dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="DocumentFormat.OpenXml" culture="neutral" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35"/>
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-65535.65535.65535.65535" newVersion="2.5.5631.0"/>
      </dependentAssembly>
    </assemblyBinding>

Hi Al,

Thank you for this update. However, the code snippet provided in Deploy Telerik Reporting with newer OpenXML SDK version should still work:

<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="DocumentFormat.OpenXml"
                         publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35"
                         culture="neutral" />
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="2.0.5022.0"
                        newVersion="2.5.5631.0"/>
      </dependentAssembly>
    </assemblyBinding>

Note, the namespace part on the assemblyBinding element xmlns="urn:schemas--com:.v1" that is missing from your web.config. This might be the reason the binding redirect is not working.

You can test adding the namespace part to your binding redirect and run the project again to see if the Word export option appears.
