When using a HtmlTextBox I am unable to utilize an Expression to call a User Function that returns a string. I get the following error:

Name cannot begin with the '-' character, hexadecimal value 0x2D. Line 1, position 8.

Now if I use a built in function like Trim, which also returns a string, it works fine... if I replace the HtmlTextBox with a regular Textbox it also works fine... so what is it about the HtmlTextBox that I'm missing...

Hi we are using both charting objects Telerik.Chart and Telerik.Reporting.Chart in the Asp.net Ajax controls chart we use the prePaint method to hide the top and bottom YAxis Labels on our bubble chart via this method:
public void RadChart_PrePaint1(object sender, EventArgs e)  
        {  
            RadChart.PlotArea.YAxis.SetItemLabel(0, "");  
            RadChart.PlotArea.YAxis.SetItemLabel(7, "");  
        } 
THis method does not appear to be available in the Reporting chart though. Anyone know a workaround?

Hi, telerik team,
I drag table control with 3 column  to a report and set the NeedDataSource event as:
 private void MonthTable_NeedDataSource(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
           (sender as Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Table).DataSource = GetDataSource();

        }

         DataTable GetDataSource()
        {
            DataTable tablelocal = new DataTable();
            tablelocal.Columns.Add("Value", System.Type.GetType("System.Int32"));
            tablelocal.Columns.Add("LabelA", System.Type.GetType("System.String"));
            tablelocal.Columns.Add("LabelB", System.Type.GetType("System.String"));
            
            tablelocal.Rows.Add(new object[] { 5, "Item 1", "A" });
            tablelocal.Rows.Add(new object[] { 4, "Item 2", "B" });
            tablelocal.Rows.Add(new object[] { 3, "Item 3", "C" });
            tablelocal.Rows.Add(new object[] { 2, "Item 4", "D" });
            tablelocal.Rows.Add(new object[] { 1, "Item 5", "E" });
            return tablelocal;
        }
       
The generated report is only a empty spreadsheet  with 3 column and 5 rows(not include the head).
Do you have any advice so that I can see the real table data in the spreadsheet?

Thanks a lot!

Trying to get columns to line up in Telerik report (Q2 - 2009.) The report was auto-generated by the wizard and the width was increased. I cannot figure out how to get the columns to line up properly. They are rendering all out of whack. I've attached a screenshot to demonstrate.

Hi,

I am using Barcode control from Telerik reporting. I placed some texts and one barcode per detail. Generation of the report leads to out of memory exception and the application growed up to >1GB in memory :-( When I replaced the Barcode, the behavior become normal.

The data source I use has cca 2000 records and there were 6 records per page. Also, I used "Code128" as a symbology.

What do you suggest to do, when I need to print out a lot of labels with barcodes?

TIA

Hello,
as I know at this time the page numbering is not working in Excel export.

I've a Textbox like with this expression "=PageNumber + ' / ' + PageCount" and when I export to Excel I've the text "1/1" on every page.

I'd like to keep the page numbering in other format so I don't want to remove it from my report.

Do you have a solution to remove it from Excel and keeping it in other format ?

It would be helpfull to have a parameter (in rendering parameters) to tell telerik reporting to ignore or not display or not render the field with PageCount or PageNumber when exporting to Excel.

Regards
Gilles

I am new to Telerik and have been given the task to produce a report that contains 60000 rows with approx 20 columns per.  The dataset comes from a single query from a single table.  The preview/report viewer chokes and eventually stops after 10-12 minutes.  After I add parameters/filter, I can successfully display 4000 rows, and I have not tried to display any amounts inbetween.  Is there an approxmate cut-off for the amount of data Telerik will handle?  I ask this so I can plan my next course of action, since I need to render the full report.

Is there a good way to handle larger sets of data in Telerik?  My superior says the entire 60,000 row report has to be able to be displayed in one report.  Any ideas to handle such a request?

Thanks

I believe I found a browser compatibility issue with the textbox.
IE 7 and IE 8 allows the textbox to grow horizontally while the same report in FireFox does not.

After researching this forum, I found numerous posts where it states categorically that text-boxes can only grow or shrink vertically.

It does not seem to matter what combination of CanGrow or CanShrink has been set.
However once the report is exported to PDF - the textbox formats correctly.

The work around of course is to force the report directly to PDF.

Is this a known issue?
Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Hello,
   I'm not sure if I'm missing something.  I'm trying to do a multi-column but force it to list the second column before the end of a page.  For example, say I have a list of 6 items and a multi-column w/ two columns.  I would like it to list 3 items per column even if it's in the middle of the page.  If I could lock the height somehow it would seem this would solve the problem (like the CanGrow w/ a textbox).  However, I can't seem to figure out anyway to do this.  It doesn't seem I can lock the height w/ a panel either.  The multi-column is actually a subreport.  I tried limitting the subreport report's height w/o any luck either.  Is this not possible or am I missing something?  I'm sending out PDF's directly from the browser.  Thanks for any help!
