Hi ,Every one

  I am new to Telerik reporting, and I have just tried using it via the Trial version (Q1 2010).  I have successfully created a report and viewed it using a WinForms application, but when I try to use the WPF viewer I hit a problem.

  The problem occurs when I create a WPF Application, and then I try to drag the "ReportViewer" WPF component to a Xaml window.  I am then presented with the error:
 
"Cannot find type 'Telerik.Windows.Controls.ThemeResourceKey'. The assembly used when compiling might be different than that used when loading and the type is missing.  Error at object 'System.Windows.ResourceDictionary' in markup file 'Telerik.ReportViewer.Wpf;component/Themes/OfficeBlack/ReportViewer.xaml'."

  I have found that if I add a reference to Telerik.Windows.Controls.dll, Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input.dll, Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.dll, and Telerik.Windows.Data.dll from the samples at \Program Files\Telerik\Reporting Q1 2010\Examples\CSharp\WpfDemo\bin, that everything seems to work fine.  But it is not until those references are added, which were not included as part of the Q1 2010 trial binaries, except specifically from that sample.

  Is this expected, and is it fine to include those references?  Will updates be included to those as part of the next update of reporting, or how else would one get those on an ongoing basis?

Hi,

I am trying to implement Telerik Reporting in our Silverlight application, and I am having a problem connecting Telerik Report Services to a Silverlight Report Viewer.  In one solution I have a Windows Azure project running a Web Role that contains a WCF service (ReportService.svc) and a project with the Repors (ReportLibrary) as instructed on this video (http://tv.telerik.com/reporting/video/telerik-reporting-getting-started-with-silverlight-report-viewer), and on the other solution I have a Silverlight app with a Silverlight Report Viewer.  When I try to setup the Silverlight client I get an error. (see image attachment).

I am using the Reporting tutorial and am having a problem after creating the first two steps in the solution.  The example uses the Adventureworks SQL database.  I have created a Class Library that contains a Telerik Report.  It previews just fine and contains the full data from the database.

Then I created a VB Windows App as part of the solution with a Telerik ReportViewer to view this sample report.  Everything setup the way the tutorial showed, but when I ran the solution (the Windows App is the startup project), I receive a long red, error message about not being able to connect to the database.  See the attached file named reportquestion1.gif .

The VIsual Studio 2010 window is captured in reportlquestion2.gif .

Why does the report preview just fine with the data from the database, but then will not run when part of the whole solution?  The same connection string is in the report definition.  So why can't it make the connection?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I am evaluating the Reporting module and cannot get the report wizard to work with Advantage Database Server.

I set up the  ADS .NET Provider connection string but when it goes to retrieve the tables info, it just comes up the a message box which says 'Advantage.Data.Provider'.

I am using Q1 2010 trial.

I am planning on using the RichTextBox feature of Silverlight 4, and will be storing the contents of the RichTextBox in my database.  Can the current version of the Silverlight ReportViewer and Telerik reporting handle the RichTextBox contents when displaying/printing?

Hi

In CrystalReport,we can save a data bounded report to rpt file, then we can use a viewer to load that file to show that report in other computer.
Is there any similar way to do this in Telerik Reporting?

Hey there.

Just got another little problem and a question.

I've designed a kind of catlogue.
My catalogue is grouped by manufacturer.
The report itself has two columns.
Now i want to print in the page footer the current manufacturer logo.
I've figured out, that this is not possible (page footer) so i thougt i maybe can print in the group footer.
this would work fine but the group footer is only shown half the page width because of the second column i think.

How can i solve this?

Now to my question:
In Microsoft Access for example i can set the column-fill-direction. (straight, zig zag...)
Is this possible with telerik too?

We have recently converted many of our reports to use the new Telerik reporting and Web Viewer.  While most of these reports are running fine, there are some time-out issues we are running into.  The issues deal with the amount of data being renderred on the report and the values returned.  I have checked and the Stored Procedure getting the data is returning in just a few seconds, so the issue is not with data retrieval from the database.  What I am seeing is the following:

• Select the report we want to view.  This makes the postback call to the server to retrieve the data.
• The page returns from the postback, and the ReportViewer has the 'processing' icon displayed inside the content area.
• This 'processing' continues for a minute or so and then times out while trying to render the report.

I know the report being displayed contains a lot of data.  Is there any way to set the viewer to have additional properties to allow it to process longer?  Is it actually making an additonal postback or AJAX call to the server after the initial postback to generate the actual report or is that done on the client?  Are there other settings we can use to speed up rendering if there is a lot of data being returned?

Thanks.
