Hello Ken,

You've probably got confused by the title of the help article, when in fact it refers to exporting without the viewer i.e. the report is not shown.
To show the PDF file directly in the browser, you should have Acrobat Reader installed on your machine and you should remove the Response.AddHeader line from the referenced code.

Kind regards,
Steve

Hello Ken,

We do not see an error in the second screenshot i.e. it is an empty dialog. As for the very first error you received - we were not able to reproduce it on your end and would appreciate if you provide us with steps to do so. Additionally we would appreciate if you answer the inquiries in the "Draw Line on Report" thread, so we can answer any further inquiries you might have.

Best wishes,
Steve
