Using Visual Web Developer Express 2010

Does Telerik Reporting work with Visual Web Developer Express 2010? If not, are there plans for the two to work together? If they are are supposed to work together, is there some special trick to make it happen because there are no Telerik menus or options available at all?

PDF Rendering issue

I didn't believe it myself until I started messing around with it. I created a report with a subreport and some code behind that builds the subreport dynamically. However, I don't believe that is the issue. I have Adobe 8 Standard installed on my computer with all the updates and when I ran the report during testing, everything looked great. We started running it for another client, and then the problems started. Some of the text was there on the screen, but it was white and it didn't appear. I could select it and copy it into Notepad and verify that the test did indeed exist.

The text that decides not to show is random, it is usually in the header. If I open the same PDF with Adobe 7 Reader and Adobe 8 Reader, there are no problems...it appears only to be with Adobe 8 Standard. The Adobe 8 Standard problem appears to be only when opening the PDF through a web browser. If I save or print the PDF from the web browser, it will appear just fine in the printout (and sometimes correct itself immediately on the screen) or I can open it up with Adobe 8 Standard after downloading it and it looks just fine. It only appears to be when opening through the web browser.

I can send screenshots and the PDF along if necessary, I just need to know where to submit them. All of our other reports seem to be working just fine from what we can tell, it only appears to be this one report that is an issue and only in this one circumstance. I'm running it through the forums here because I wanted to make sure there wasn't anything that I was doing wrong in the setup that's causing it to render incorrectly in some instances.

Thanks,
Adam

Business Objects binding broken in 2009Q3?

I previously developed some reports with the Q2 trial release, then just purchased the full version of Q3, and I'm having lots of problems with the reports even after successfully running the upgrade wizard.

To simply/isolate the problem, I've performed the following steps with no luck:

1. create new Windows Forms application called BusinessObjectDataSourceReporting.
2. create a new class called Person:

    
            using System; 
        
            namespace BusinessObjectDataSourceReporting { 
        
              public class Person { 
        
                public string LastName { get; set; } 
        
                public DateTime DateOfBirth { get; set; } 
        
              } 
        
            }

3. Build project
4. Drop a telerik "ReportViewer" onto Form1.
5. Add new item to project, select template "Telerik Report 2009 Q3", name it PersonReport. When wizard pops up follow the basic options...
   1. Click next
   2. New Report, click next
   3. Create new datasource
   4. Select "Business Object"
   5. select BusinessObjectDataSourceReporting.BusinessObjectDataSourceReporting.Person
   6. Next, next, etc., finish...

The report is produced with NO fields in the details section. The Data Explorer window shows "No Data Source".

I also tried creating the datasource first in visual studio, then selecting it as an "existing data source" in the report wizard, with the same results.

Oddly, the report's "DataSource" property appears properly set to BusinessObjectDataSourceReporting.Person.

It seems like this is a pretty basic task, am I missing something obvious? Thanks!

Michael

DataSource Problem with exporting programatically

Hello,

I am currently trying to export a report as a PDF in code (from a WCF Service specifically) and I believe that I have that working correctly, but when i save the report and open it manually it complains and says

"An error has occured while processing Report '':
Unable to connect to database. Please verify that your connection string is valid; in case you use a connection string from the application configuration file, make sure the name is correct and the connection string settings are present in the configuration file of your application."

I don't know how to check what the problem is because when I open this same report in a WPF Report Viewer code, it works just fine. If I export the report from that Report Viewer and open it however, I do not get the error.

Basically, I only get this error on this report when in code. I have not gotten this on any other report or in any other fashion on this report.

If anybody knows something that I can check or set to make this work then that would be great.

I just updated my program and it turns out that the report no longer works in the report viewer. The data works just fine in the Preview but when I actually build the project or try to deploy it, I get the afore mentioned error.

[Solved] Reporting Editor goes in strange way.

Hi,

Telerik, I am in greate trouble, I have faced this problem so many times.

During last 5 days, it is coming so often, and every time I have no other option but to create the report again.

I have attatched the detailed image of error, please check this and suggest how we can solve this problem.

We are using "Reporting Q1 2010" version.

Also please tell us how we can bind the sub report, here I am posting my code but this is not doing any thing,

Infact during this process I have been facing the reported error this time. I have created this report almost 6 times

and every time during the sub report binding I came up with this error.

private void AsapBillingTransactions_NeedDataSource(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

DataSet ds_SubReport = new DataSet();

command = new SqlCommand();

command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

command.Connection = connection;

command.CommandText = "sp_ASAPBilling1";

command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@OrgID", OrgID));

command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@FromDate", FromDate));

command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@ToDate", ToDate));

adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(command);

adapter.Fill(ds_SubReport);

this.subReport1.ReportSource.DataSource = ds_SubReport;

}

Certainly found more errors.

One of reports in my project is working well, I am able to preview the report in my reporting project, but creating dll of reports project, when I use it with my web application, it is giving error, I have also attatched the image with error named"ConnectionStringError".

Out-Proc Session status

Hi,

I noticed the following item in the release notes for 2010 Q1 SP1:
http://www.telerik.com/products/reporting/whats-new/release-history/q1-2010-sp1-version-4-0-10-421.aspx

> FIXED: Web report viewer throws exception when parameters are defined and out-proc session is used

Can someone explain what this means? Does the parameter-less design requirement for reports used with out-proc session still hold? (http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/reporting/report-viewers/design-considerations-for-out-proc-session-state.aspx)

Does anyone know if/when better support for out-proc session will be introduced to the Reporting library?

thanks,
jason
