Adding a "View PDF" button column in RadGrid

[Arsalan Ansari]

Hello All,

I would like to add a "View PDF" button column in RadGrid that would allow me to collect the data in the row and show a PDF of a designed report.  Is this possible? If yes, how can i do this?

this would mean that i do not show the report viewer on the page and most of it is handled programmatically.

Thanks,

ok, so i figured it out but how can i open the file after saving it?

protected void rgDriversPayroll_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "ViewPDF")
        {
            GridDataItem dataBoundItem = e.Item as GridDataItem;
            DriverReportLS reportToExport = new DriverReportLS();
            ReportProcessor reportProcessor = new ReportProcessor();
            reportToExport.ReportParameters["DriverID"].Value = rcbDrivers.SelectedValue.ToString();
            reportToExport.ReportParameters["PayDay"].Value = dataBoundItem["PayDay"].Text;

            RenderingResult result = reportProcessor.RenderReport("PDF", reportToExport, null);

            FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"c:\test.pdf", FileMode.Append);
            fs.Write(result.DocumentBytes, 0, result.DocumentBytes.Length);
            fs.Flush();
            fs.Close();
        }
    }
