Hello,

•  When i generate report in the Report viewer and close that page.
•  When i reopen the page, it shows me the last created report. I want to refresh the

          report viewer on page_load().



Thanks,
Jaspreet.

Hi jaspreet,

Currently when using the web report viewer, the report is being refreshed upon every postback. So basically if you need to change it on Page_Load, you can hook it to the ReportViewer in Page_Load event based on your conditions instead of declaratively setting it through the aspx markup i.e.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (!Page.IsPostBack && some condition)
        {
            ReportViewer1.Report = new Report1();
        }
        else ...
    }

Kind regards,

Hello,

We need to refresh the report viewer due to compatibility issue. Report Viewer was working fine in IE 8,9,10 but giving issue in IE11 & Chrome browser. Currently, we are using alternate approach and that is to check the compatibility checkbox in IE setting which is not a solution and can't guide to every user to do it. So we have to fix it in the code so need help on this. Also, when we refresh the report viewer, the report will come but without refresh during page load, it is not coming. Please see the attached screenshots.

Please help us on this issue asap.

The report is not refreshing due to compatibility issue in IE 11 and chrome. Currently, we have a workaround, we click the compatibility checkbox in IE and ask the user to work but it is not possible to  every user so we have to fix it in code.

Hi Amit,

There are no screenshots to your post. Please illustrate the problem in Ie and Chrome browsers, and include details about the used viewer and Telerik Reporting version.

Important settings for using IE browser are specified in Browsers and Limitations, please check the linked article.
