Hi!

First, I apologize if I don't write something well. I installed the Visual Studio in spanish, so maybe I don't know "the name of the things" in english.

I converted a CrystalReports with the Telerik Report Wizard. Everything looks well, more or less. But in the preview I got the message "The source of the report definition has not been specified". In CrystalReport I had the datasource specified; so, my first question is... why was it missed in the conversion? Anyway, I went to the designer, I opened the "datasource" property of the Telerik.Reporting.report, and I clicked in the "Add Project Datasource" link. At the end, I can see my DataSet in the Solution Explorer. It looks ok, cause if I see the Dataset designer and I have a look of the data in "Data See Preview", it's perfect.

My problem is, when I finish creating the datasource, I can't choose it in the datasource list, even if I made it with the "Add Project Datasource" link of that property.

Thanks a lot for your attention.

Hello Cèsar,

It is expected that we do not "include" the datasource in the conversion, we take care of the layout only as the datasource is handled differently by different engines and it is not related to our Reporting product.
As for your second problem, we could not figure out what is the exact problem that you report. If you use the "Add Project Datasource" wizard, it would automatically be set as DataSource once you press the finish button.

Best wishes,
