Hi Samy,

You can achieve your goal by utilizing the ItemDataBound event of the detail section after deserializing the report from XML. Here is a sample approach:

1. Attaching the event handler:

var report = (Report)serializer.Deserialize(new StringReader(reportXml));

 

var detailSection = report.Items.Find("detail", true)[0];

 

detailSection.ItemDataBound += new EventHandler(detailSection_ItemDataBound);

2. The ItemDataBound event handler implementation:

void detailSection_ItemDataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var detailSection = (Telerik.Reporting.Processing.DetailSection)sender;
    var subReport1 = detailSection.ChildElements.Find("SubReport1", true)[0];
    var subReport1TextBox1 = (Telerik.Reporting.Processing.TextBox)subReport1.ChildElements.Find("textBox1", true)[0];

    var textBox = (Telerik.Reporting.Processing.TextBox)detailSection.ChildElements.Find("textBox1", true)[0];
    textBox.Value = subReport1TextBox1.Value;
}

As for your second question - watermarks are available since the Q3 2011 release. You have to upgrade from Q2 2011 if you want to use them. More information about Watermarks you can find in the product's documentation.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
