Hello and thanks in advice
i'm evaluating the reporting tool.

I've defined a report with 4 text parameter with allowblank setted to true.

In vs2008 when i test the report all the 4 parameter appear with the red asterisk on the right as they are mandatory.
also i can click preview without setting some value to all the parameters.

first question, how can i make the parameter "optional" (without using allownull is better), i mean the user open the report 
click on just one parameter set some text and click preview?

second question, is there any way to force the load of the report  data just on preview click and not on the loading of the container?

is there any best practice about the conditional showing of column in report? i mean based on a user selection showing some column and hiding some other column.

Regards

Fabio

Hi there,

I'm fairly new to SL and Telerik - so forgive me if this is something basic that I am missing.  Here's my current situation that I just cannot resolve and I have scoured the forum and cannot find an answer either.  I'd appreciate some help.

This example works:
-  I create a Telerik report in Silverlight viewer - it works on local machine; and post to IIS - all works fine
    -- I copied the following DLLs to the BIN directory:  Telerik.Reporting; Telerik.Reporting.Service; Telerik.Reporting.XamlRendering

This example does NOT work:
- I create a Silverlight Business Application - add a new page containing the Telerik Report viewer (same page as above) -- it works on the local machine - I post to IIS - and I get a message in the report viewer:  "An exception occurred during the operation, making the result invalid.  Check InnerException for exception details."
    -- I copied the same DLLs to the BIN directory as above - EVERYTHING is the same - with the exception that this is the Business Application - so the web config is different (but I copied the Service Model stuff same as in first example).

What am I missing?  I can't believe that people aren't using the Telerik Reporting in a SL Business App - so there must be something extra that is needed to make it work in a business app posted to IIS when a regular (non-business app) works fine when posted to IIS.  (I also don't know HOW to check for more details on the 'inner exception' - so if someone could provide specfic instructions for more info on that - I'd appreciate it).

Thanks so much for your help!!

Where can I find working code samples of Telerik reporting ? I need to embed Telerik reporting in  my web application asp.net projetc.

Hi Telerik-Team

Is there any helpfile or example which shows me the different available hatchstyles visually?
What I need is something which indicates both in Bar- and Linecharts whether values have a specific condition (true or false).
The colours already determine another status, that is why I need a second option.

Kind Regards

Hi,

Anyone know if there is a proper approach to the below issue raised 16 months ago. I'm using the latest version of telerik reporting but seem to have the same issue which is being able to access the charts data series to manipulated if.  NeedDataSource method on the chart resets any changed settings.

(scroll to Dans solution at the end)

Telerik Staff comments were " Improving the reporting chart item is in our TODO list and we hope that we would soon have the time to work in that direction....." so hopefully its fixed?

Hi all!

Rather than try and re-invent the wheel...

I have a solution that includes a number of projects including; winform, web, and mobile clients. I also have a separate class for my reports. I also have abstracted interfaces for business logic, and also others for business objects and data access. Nothing really unusual here.

What I am looking to do is provide my users with a catalogue of reports, which will be displayed to them via a treeview control grouped by headings (parent nodes). I've considered these possible implementations:

• Using a database in which I built two tables that include a Report table and a ReportGroup table. This can be used to build the treeview control on the form. Doing this would allow me to control what reports are made available to specific customers. 
• Through reflection, iterate through the report classes within the report assembly, and then build the treeview using the attributes of each found report class.
• Build a custom config file that does the same as the above.

Hello,
I'm trying to format the pie labels in my report. I have the following:

Budget:
Budget Spent:      25
Budget Remain:   75

The issue is that it's displaying like this

Budget Spent:    25.00000
Budget Remain: 75.00000

I simply want the display number to show:

Budget spent:     25%
Budget Remain:  75%

How is this done within the property of that chart control?
Please keep in mind that I'm not displaying the labels the above are to explain the situation.

I am using following code:

Dim

 

 

DynRpt As New DynamicReport

 

 

 

Dim SQL = "Select * from TABLE1 where rownum<=50"

 

 

 

Dim Constr = "Data Source=XXXX;User Id=XXX;Password=XXXX;"

 

 

 

Dim adp As New Devart.Data.Oracle.OracleDataAdapter(SQL, Constr)

 

 

 

Dim dataSet As New DataSet()

 

adp.Fill(dataSet)

DynRpt.DataSource = dataSet

ReportViewer1.Report = DynRpt

Report is loaded with 25 pages, but all blank. does not show any Data.
Is there anything else that needs to be done, i was following Sample from documentation

I am using the Silverlight Report Viewer and just upgraded to Q3 2010 reporting controls. Now when I try to run my report without initializing the parameters values I get the following error:  'One or more parameters are not set or have invalid values.', and the report won't even load.  Before it would load and allow me to enter in the parameters that didn't have any default values.  Is there a way to run a report so that the user can enter in the parameters?

I have two parameters that are hidden and three that the user needs to enter information into before the report is run.  I am setting the two hidden parameters before the report runs, but not setting the other three.

Thanks!
