While my program is at void OnNeedDataSource(object sender, EventArgs e)
I discover that my data is insufficient (just very few records to make it).... so how do I cancel the rendering process???.
looks like by just returning from OnNeeDataSource will not do it. I still get some empty rendering.

regards.

You can notify the user about what is happening and stop the processing with exception:
void Report1_NeedDataSource(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    throw new Exception("Report processing stop prematurely.");
}

If I let the program run I will get this (shown in the attachment).

Is there anyway to just not show anything?, that red error message is pretty extreme.

Do you want to hide the viewer? What do you mean by just not to show nothing?

You can set Visible=false on the DetailSection.

Maybe not the most elegant solution but you can atleast hide the report contents.

I guess the visible=false helps.

Even when I think it's not a good idea to let unhandled exceptions floating around, those dialog are a little bothersome because I am running in debug mode for now. Thanks.
