I'm using vb.net and telerik reporting.  I have an object that I set as my report datasource.  This object has an array in it.  When I go to my report and input values in the textboxes or even in the code behind in my report, I do not know how to get the items from the array in the object onto my report.  Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi Amanda,

Properties from all levels are visible, except properties that are collections. Let's have the following setup - a textbox item with the following expression =Fields.ObjA.ObjB.ObjC.

In this case if ObjB is an array, how do we know what ObjC to use for which ObjB?

Since there is no straight-forward answer, we do not allow drilling into collections. If you want to show data from the array, you should use a separate data region (i.e. Table or SubReport) to bind to it .
