Greetings

I am currently testing out your reporting product on a trial basis.  One of my requirements is to be able to change the Page Header dynamically (i.e. Company Logo , etc.).  This is a multi-tenet application and I store the company logos in a database.  I can place the logo in the business object I bind to but that see to require that I add the logo to each item in the list of my business object - not very efficient.

I have been trying to figure out a way to pass in the logo as a byte[] parameter of program to the page header but to no avail.  Any suggestions?

Hello Bill,

You can set the Value of the PictureBox to a file directly and this way you won't have to bind to a binary column. You can set the logo through binding the pictureBox item Value to User Functions using report parameter, which parameter can be changed when passing the report to the ReportViewer.

In short, the report is not aware of your data structure and you can provide data to it in any of the supported ways.

I hope this helps.

All the best,
