All,

I am just slightly confused about the PDF output described in the information available so far.

We are using ActiveReports 2.0 for .NET to report data that has been entered using RAD Editor and are having fits because of the insane limitations of their HTML rendering in PDF documents. What has happened is their engine will encounter HTML tags it can't understand so it just quits rendering.

1) How will PDFs be handled? As an export from the visible report? As a native viewer with the document directly rendered to PDF (like ActiveReports)?
2) Currently HTML code is very limited in ActiveReports. Will Telerik Reporting handle all the tags the RAD Editor supports? This is KILLER important. We have users importing into RAD Editor from MS Word and half the time AR just chokes and dies. To top it off, we are left to guess as to where the error occured in the report since their stack trace is totally encrypted.

Suffice it to say after absolutely pulling our hair out with ActiveReports, we would love something that works as advertised. If you hit a homer as you have with RAD Editor and RAD Combo, which we also use, we are in...

Thanks,
B

Hi there,

I'm trying to format a particular textbox on the first and subsequent pages differently. Specifically, on page 1, I'd like to format the textbox as centered, bold Cambria font, size 14. On pages 2 and up, I'd like to format it as center, bold Cambria, size 10.

The rules I've entered for the textbox are
= PageNumber > =1 ------- center, bold, Cambria, 10
= PageNumber = 1   ------- center, bold, Cambria, 14

Unfortunately, regardless of page number, the textbox is always formatted according to the second rule.

Notably, if the second rule is removed, the textbox is formatted properly.

I also tried formatting the textbox first as size 14, then adding conditional formatting with the first rule only, but that doesn't work. I assume that's expected behavior because as governed by another post, conditional formatting is designed to only change default behavior.

I've already tried switching the order and different combinations of the "Stop If True" setting.

Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Mark

I'm trying to pass a DataSet to a SubReport. I don't want the DataSet to be the SubReport's DataSource. The SubReport has a chart and table in it which will display the contents of the passed DataSet.

The only way I see to pass values to a SubReport is via ReportParameters. That, however, does not allow passing objects. Doing SubReport.ReportSource on DetailSection.ItemDataBound leaves the first detail section without a DataSet.


Is it possible to get to the actual report object (SubReport.ReportSource) per detail section?

Hello,

I have another problem. This time I am trying to display "Stacked Line chart" and bind DataTable on NeedDataSource.
DataTable source has 3 columns: DateTime, double, double
I want to show DateTime values on X axis and 2 series on chart. Each for the column. LINK TO CHART

I have tried to find similar example in Documentation but I found only very simple examples.

DataTable looks like that:

10-Jan-2000    1.1    2.0
20-Feb-2000    1.4    2.2
24-Apr-2000    1.3    2.5
...
...
...

Could you please also explain me how the binding work? How to create series, legend etc?

Regards,
Michal.

Thank you. 

Hello...
My several customer want to print with dot printer.
does radcontrol for winform has the function which is control dot printer?

Hi there.

I had a PDF report working fine a bit ago and it stopped working and I think the only thing that changed was the database. One of my co-workers did a bunch of cleanup on his local version of the db, made a backup and I used that backup on my db now.

Anyway, that may or may not be the problem and I am looking for ideas.

A few important things to note about my report:

I am using a stored procedure, so I am manually making that binding happen in the code behind:

 

public My_Report()

 

{

InitializeComponent();

 

this.DataSource = null;

 

 

this.NeedDataSource += new System.EventHandler(this.My_Report_NeedDataSource);

 

}

 

private void My_Report_NeedDataSource(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

 

{

 

this.sqlConnection1.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyDataContext"].ConnectionString;

 

 

 

//Transfer the ReportParameter value to the parameter of the select command

 

 

this.sqlDataAdapter1.SelectCommand.Parameters["@PersonID"].Value = this.ReportParameters["PersonId"].Value;

 

 

this.sqlDataAdapter1.SelectCommand.Parameters["@OperatorID"].Value = this.ReportParameters["OperatorId"].Value;

 

 

//Take the Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Report instance and set the adapter as it's DataSource

 

Telerik.Reporting.Processing.

Report report = (Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Report)sender;

 

report.DataSource =

this.sqlDataAdapter1;

 

 

// set the table datasource as well

 

table1.DataSource = report.DataSource;

 

// get the picture paths for the person and the company logo

 

pbPerson.Value =

this.ReportParameters["PersonPicturePath"].Value;

 

pbContractor.Value =

this.ReportParameters["ContractorPicturePath"].Value;

 

pbOperator.Value =

this.ReportParameters["OperatorPicturePath"].Value;

 

}

}

Also, I am creating the pdf and saving it to the file system, then opening the pdf as content in my page. Here is how I am save the pdf report to the file system:

 

 

void SaveReport(Telerik.Reporting.Report report, string fileName)

 

{

 

ReportProcessor reportProcessor = new ReportProcessor();

 

 

RenderingResult result = reportProcessor.RenderReport("PDF", report, null);

 

 

using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Create))

 

{

fs.Write(result.DocumentBytes, 0, result.DocumentBytes.Length);

}

}

Then, my pdf shows as embedded content in my aspx page like this:

 

 

<EMBED id="showPDF" runat="server" type="application/pdf" width="750" height="550"></EMBED>

A bit more info:

I am able to run the sproc standalone from inside sql-server management studio with no problems. Also, a pdf report does get created, but it only has header information. The detail section which has the table based on the sproc and a picture box is simply blank.

Anyway, all of this was working in the very recent past and is not working now.

Any ideas on why this is happening would be greatly appreciated!

Mike

 

Hi

The default method for getting a value from  the datasource to the report is with =Fields.Datafield.

This assumes Table(0). If I have multiple selects returning multiple tables how to I get to these data items.
