How to get Master ObjectDatasource to Subreport

[RJ]

Hi All,
I'm new on using Telerik Reports. I'm just wondering how can I get the ObjectDatasource of my Master to my Subreport.
I have used this code from the documentation and it works fine when I use it directly to a report but when its being used to a master, cant seem to pass the datasource.

​ Dim objectDataSource As New Telerik.Reporting.ObjectDataSource()
    objectDataSource.DataSource = GetMyData() ' GetData returns a SqlDataAdapter object which has a select command with three SELECT statements.
    objectDataSource.DataMember = "Table2" ' Indicating the exact table to bind to. If the DataMember is not specified the first data table will be used.
    objectDataSource.CalculatedFields.Add(New Telerik.Reporting.CalculatedField("FullName", GetType(String), "=Fields.Name + ' ' + Fields.ProductNumber")) ' Adding a sample calculated field.

    'Creating a new report
    Dim report As New Telerik.Reporting.Report()

    ' Assigning the ObjectDataSource component to the DataSource property of the report.
    report.DataSource = objectDataSource

    ' Use the InstanceReportSource to pass the report to the viewer for displaying.
    Dim reportSource As new InstanceReportSource
    reportSource.ReportDocument = report

    ' Assigning the report to the report viewer.
    reportViewer1.ReportSource = reportSource

    ' Calling the RefreshReport method in case this is a WinForms application.
    Me.reportViewer1.RefreshReport()


Please note that using vb code, Report Q3 2013 and I wonder why Subreport.ReportSource.Datasource is not available
Any help would greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
RJ

I have figured it out..
My next question is how to pass the my 2nd datamember to Drillthrough report? is that possible? 
I was able to set my subreport datasource from my GetMyData() dataset with my 1st datamember  from my master.
Now on my subreport I have added action

Dim reportSource As New TypeReportSource()
reportSource.TypeName = "ReportLibrary1.Report1, ReportLibrary1, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null"
reportSource.Parameters.Add(New Telerik.Reporting.Parameter("OrderNumber", "SO43659"))
Dim reportAction1 As New Telerik.Reporting.NavigateToReportAction()
reportAction1.ReportSource = reportSource
textBox1.Action = reportAction1

How can now set the datasource of my Report1 with the my 2nd datamember from my master?
Don't want to get the data from the database coz I already set it on the master and all I need to do is get it, but I don't know how.

Thanks in advance,
RJ

Hi,

Set a binding to Report1.DataSource = ReportItem.Paremt.Parent.Parent..(as many as needed)...DataObject - http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/data-items-how-to-use-data-object.html

@KS  Code: Report1.DataSource = ReportItem.Paremt.Parent.Parent is not working

ReportItem.Parent doesn't even exist on Visual Studio IntelliSense

Hi,

It must be a typo .. the key word is Parent and it gives the container element.
