Can't figure out how to create boxes around data

Hi,

Here's the situation. I have a Telerik Report document. In the Detail row, there are three columns, each with one field.

The fields can grow, and do based on the data in the field; so there may be multiple lines on some of the fields.

If I just put borders around the fields, then the boxes are all different heights, depending on what is in the fields.
(like this sketch:)
---------------------------
|         |           |         | <-Record 1
--------|           |         |
          |           |-------|
          ----------
---------------------------
|         |           |         | <-Record 2
--------|           |         |
          ----------|         |
                       ---------

I need for all three columns to be the same height boxes.

When done, the page should basically be a grid of boxes with the details from each record filled into the fields:

--------------------
|        |       |      |   <- Record 1
|        |       |      |
--------------------
|        |       |      |   <- Record 2
---------------------

Hope I am making sense... Anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Thanks!

-Chuck

'ReportProcessor' is ambiguous in namespace

Hi;
(Use 2009.Q1)
i am writing my own web browser. And from that browser, i try to export a report to pdf. But when you click on the Export functionality, it opens the export operation on Internet Explorer (a different web browser of course...). And because the instance ids of my own web browser and internet explorer's are different, exporting fails. Now that, i need to export the report on the same page by writing code behind a button control or by changing the functionality of WebReportViewer to export the report to the _self window.

First of all, i am using a code snippet that would display the report in the same page with my web browser (by implementing a button control's event). The code snippet is:

http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/faq-display-pdf-browser.html

Sub ExportToPDF(ByVal reportToExport As Telerik.Reporting.Report)

Dim reportProcessor As New ReportProcessor()

Dim result As RenderingResult = reportProcessor.RenderReport("PDF", reportToExport, Nothing)

Dim fileName As String = result.DocumentName + ".pdf"

Response.Clear()

Response.ContentType = result.MimeType

Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.Private)

Response.Expires = -1

Response.Buffer = True

Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", String.Format("{0};FileName=""{1}""", "attachment", fileName))

Response.BinaryWrite(result.DocumentBytes)

Response.End()

End Sub

Although i have imported Telerik.Reporting and Telerik.Reporting.Processing libraries, the compiler tells me that "ReportProcessor" is ambigious in the namespace Telerik.Reporting.Processing. Why do i get this error?

As a second question, i tried to open the exported sheet in the same window by using WebReportViewer with _self directive. But i failed again because of the different instance ids of web browsers...

Any ideas about exporting the report to _self window would be appreciated!.
Thanx

Conditional formatting/style

I have a report using a stylesheet, if I were to use conditional formatting to change the font colour of negative numbers to red does the resulting style rule also change the rest of the textboxs properties (font, size, etc) away from the values set by the stylesheet?
or
Is it possible to assign a stylesheet style conditionally?

Thanks
Patrick

3D Pie X axis rotation

Hi, I'm quite new with telerik charts,
I'm wondering if there's a way to create a 3d pie chart, rotate it on the x axis for example by 30°, with labels not rotated and with the size of the slices (3D pie) displayed (like in the picture). I used in the past other C++ components in order to manage charts, but yours one seems completely different than everything else I've seen.

Unable to sum on a group footer

Hello

I have a group, and on the footer I want to make a Sum(). But when I right click > Expression > Aggregates, nothing shows. I know that before, I had the ability to sum, and it worked. I don't know what I changed, but it doesn't work anymore.

I call Sum() of my field anyway, but on the second page of the report, I have an error : "The expression contains undefined function call Sum()".

I can't find references in the documentation for when aggregates are disabled...

Why doesn't Sum() works ?

Thanks
