Processing.Table ItemDataBound

[CodeR]

Hi,

I am having heaps of trouble converting an old report to one based on the new Table control.

On the old report I could create 'column' that incremented a number based on criteria of a DataItem. This used to be run against the detail.ItemDataBinding event. See example below:

    Private Sub detail_ItemDataBinding(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles detail.ItemDataBinding
        Dim detail As Processing.DetailSection = CType(sender, Processing.DetailSection)
        Dim dataItem As DataRowView = CType(detail.DataItem, DataRowView)
        'new project id
        If m_CurrentProjectID <> dataItem("ProjectID") Then
            'reset project total
            If m_CurrentProjectID <> -1 Then IncrementInvoiceNo()

            m_CurrentProjectID = dataItem("ProjectID")
            m_CurrentClientID = dataItem("ClientID")
            '  m_totalInvoiceCost += dataItem("TotalAmount")

        ElseIf m_CurrentClientID <> dataItem("ClientID") Then
            'reset client total
            If m_CurrentClientID <> "" Then IncrementInvoiceNo()

            m_CurrentClientID = dataItem("ClientID")
            ' m_totalInvoiceCost += dataItem("TotalAmount")
        End If

        m_totalInvoiceCost += dataItem("TotalAmount")
    End Sub

  Now though, I am binding my data against a Prossessing.Table . i.e.

 Me.Table1.DataSource = l_dt.DefaultView

Can I still get to the DataItems using the latest version of Reporting in a similar way to above using the Processing.Table ItemDataBound or ItemDataBinding events?

Cheers,

Damo.

Hi Damien Coyle,

The short answer is yes, all Report Items have ItemDataBinding/ItemDataBound events. In your example the ItemDataBound event is not required for what you use DetailSection, because you can achieve the same by using expressions and knowledge of Table Row Hierarchies.  Please, try our Table/Crosstab Wizard and let us know what do you think.
