Hello Mindaugas,

Displaying Report Book in MVC with our ASP.NET Report Viewer or any other Terlerik Report Viewer is no different from displaying a report. However there is a change in what our viewers can receive as a report source, so currently what you have to do (in code behind) is this:

InstanceReportSource reportSource = new InstanceReportSource();

reportSource.ReportDocument = new MyReportBook();

ReportViewer1.ReportSource = reportSource;

Changing data in the Report Book can be done like this:

reportSource.ReportDocument.Reports.Where(rep => rep.Name == "ReportName").FirstOrDefault().DataSource = myDataSource;

I hope that helps.

All the best,

Hi Mindaugas,

The code sample can be in both places - in the controller and in the view (the ASPX page), depends on where you assign the Report Book in the first place. Please have in mind that currently you cannot set the report (in your case the Report Book) with markup.

Here is a sample on how to use the code below in the ASPX page:

<body>

<script runat="server">

public override void VerifyRenderingInServerForm(Control control)

{

// to avoid the server form (<form runat="server"> requirement

}

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)

{

base.OnLoad(e);

InstanceReportSource reportSource = new InstanceReportSource();

reportSource.ReportDocument = new MyReportBook();

ReportViewer1.ReportSource = reportSource;

}

</script>

<form id="main" method="post" action="">

<telerik:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" Width="100%" Height="800px" runat="server">

</telerik:ReportViewer>

</form>

</body>
