Lable ( Report Type ) does not work as multiple column

[Praveen]

Sir,

        I  trying to use Telerik Reporting ( trail version - Q2 2009 SP1 (3.1.9.807) ) , I am satisfied all reports expect LABEL REPORT TYPE , Because multiple column does not work .

My code as like this :
  public Report9()
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Required for telerik Reporting designer support
        /// </summary>
        InitializeComponent();

        DataSet Ds = new DataSet();
       
      //  Assign data to Dataset ( Ds) from DataBase

        this.detail.ColumnCount = 2;
        this.DataSource = Ds;

    }

Tools Used : VS 2008 sp1 , SQL Server 2005
I am waiting for your kind reply

Regards ,

Hi Praveen,

I assume that you're showing the report through HTML rendering extension, which as described in Creating Multi-Column Reports help article, supports single column report only.

Hi Steve ,

               Thank you for your immediate response ,

I didn't get it , Because I am beginner. Can I say , one by one procedure what I have done

1) Create One report for Multi Column
               public Report9()
                {
                     /// <summary>
                     /// Required for telerik Reporting designer support
                     /// </summary>
                       InitializeComponent();

                       DataSet Ds = new DataSet();
       
                         Ds = Data  from DataBase
                            
                            this.DataSource = Ds;

                   }

           2) Set detail section properties
                     Report.Width=1.5in
                    DetailSection.ColumnCount=4
                    DetailSection.ColumnSpacing=0in.
                   (In  design time ,  can see multi column )
           3) Create another report . Then set  previous report as subreport

          But multicolumn doesn't work ,
          So Please response ...........

Regards
Praveen

Hi Praveen,

Please review the help article, I've referenced in my previous reply and namely the following warning box:

"HTML supports one-column reports only. Multi-column report used in subreport item would be rendered as one-column report as well."

You state in your second post, that you use the multicolumn report you've created as subreport and according to the above quote, it would show as single column only and this is expected. Multicolumn reports used as subreports would always render as single column. Our suggestion is to change your layout/scenario, so that you have the columns in your main report, and if you are using Page oriented format like pdf, rtf etc. it would render the multicolumns as expected.

I would love an example of this as well if possible.

as i was planning to use the telerik reports for printing avery labels (which i have to say Telerik Reporting handles very very well)

but of course the html rendering is a worry but understandable. if there was a way to just generate the reports instantly as pdfs maybe within the web application so that users do not see the html rendering


actually this will do nicely
