Hi Rajesh,

For the time being, the only way to save a report to .trdx is to serialize it to xml as shown in the following help article: Serializing Report Definition in XML. We would think of improving this and introduce an easier/more flexible way to handle this in future versions.

All the best,

Hi Steve,



I did exactly what is described in the artcle to serialize an Report. When I open the XML-file in the new Report designer, i get a error message: "unsupported fileformat". What can I do?



best regards

Hi Steve,



I found the answer. Only rename the file "Report.xml" in "Report.trdx", the the designer can open the file.
