reporting examples

[anu]

Hi..

I'm working on an application where i'm making use of telerik reporting. I want to know whether it is possible to add controls to reporting without CSharp.ReportLibrary. I mean, is it possible to do it directly in aspx.cs page itself. Can any one give me an example for that.

If its not possible please tell me how to add ReportLibrary and the design pages in to my project

Hello anu,

To get familiar with Telerik Reporting I suggest to start with the Designing reports topic in the product documentation.
Articles Understanding Report Sections and Report Life Cycle describe the basic concepts of the Telerik Reporting engine.

Also, I strongly recommend to go through all the sample reports in the accompanying sample solutions in both C# and VB.NET and take a look at the related videos.

I hope this information helps.

All the best,

Hi.
    The third page that i want to create it contains only one image, and it should not be there in second page, i mean the second page contains only one textbox not any image.

Please help to solve the problem.

Hi anu,

If you need to display only three pages in your report and all the information is static (i.e. report is not data bound) you should use the Report Header, the Report Footer and the Detail sections and you should set the BreakPage property of the Report Header and the Detail sections to After.

Attached you can find a sample solution that covers your case.

Hello anu,

If you want to show only one chart item you can place it inside the header or the footer of an unbound group (i.e. group without grouping criteria). This way you will have only one chart.

More about groups and grouping you can find here.

Hi.

  Thanks for the reply.
   It workes properly.
   I'm keeping a textbox in page header and i want to change the text of it or make it vissible true or false, page by page. I mean for each page different headers i want to show. How is it possible?
Thanks in advance.

Hello anu,

You can implement ItemDataBound event handler for PageHeader section to manipulate visibility of section's items. If you want to change visibility only for one item (TextBox) you can implement only it's event handler.

If this does not help in your case please contact us again.

Hello anu,

The best way to understand how to properly use report sections is to review the Designing Reports section of the Telerik Reportig Help, and more specifically the Understanding Report Sections topic. Also, take a look at the Reports Life Cycle topic, where the behavior of reporting engine is explained.

Reports are able to display data from no more then one data set. So in order to create a report that gathers data from more than one (three in your case) data sets, you may design three separate reports and then combine them in one single report using SubReport items.

In the forum thread Printing options you can find attached a sample of how to combine reports. In order each of them to have a different header you can design the Report header section of each sub report to display different items.

I hope this information helps.

Kind regards,
