Everyone,

I am trying to add a report generation system to my web site.  I am trying to use the trial version of Telerik Reporting to see if it can do what I need it to do.  I am using Visual Studio 2008 and Framewrok 3,.5.  I have a report class created and a report viewer on my web page.  I get my data table from WCF and assign it to the report.  The report displays with headings but no data rows.  I have used '=FieldName" and "=Table.FieldName" in the text boxes to no avail.  My code is simple:

 

Dim objMainReport As Telerik.Reporting.Report = New RequestsByDate()

 

objMainReport.DataSource = dsTemp.Tables(0)  '-- table is available here

ReportViewer1.Report = objMainReport

ReportViewer1.DataBind()

I know that it is probably something to do with my RequestsByDate class, but I really have no clue.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Mark

Hello!

I have a question concerning the positioning of items on the report page. First, my scenario:

- One report wich has the Page Header section, 2 groups, Detail Section with a subreport inside it, Page Footer section;
- The sub report has only a crosstab in the report header section, with page header, report footer, page footer, detail sections invisible.

My problem is how to make the crosstab appear always centered in the report pages... Is there a way to do this?

Thanks and regards!

Hello,

We have a need to inherit our reports from an abstract base class, and when we do we can not access the designer.  An error comes up saying "The designer must create an instance of type 'reportbasename' but it cannot because the type is declared as abstract. "  I changed the base type to a normal class and recieved the following error: "The designer could not be shown for this file because none of the classes within it can be designed. The designer inspected the following classes in the file: reportname --- The base class 'reportbasename' could not be loaded. Ensure the assembly has been referenced and that all projects have been built. "

Any help or guidelines to follow for this issue would be greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance.

The same thing with Cancel button when you decided cancel printing.  Is this a bug or feature?

Hey all,

I've managed to get this far, and could just use a nudge in the right direction if possible:

I wanted to select values from my database, have my business object return them in a collection (generic) and then create parameters in a dropdownlist at the top of the report, so a user can select an item at the top. Subsequently, this item would go out to a stored procedure, that would get different results on the page (i'm actually using a graph on the chart/report)

List

 

<string> campaignTypes = ReportGenerator.GetCampaignTypes(parameters/metadata goes here..);

 

 

 int i = 0;

 

 

foreach (string campaignType in campaignTypes)

 

{

 

  ReportParameter rp = new ReportParameter(campaignType, ReportParameterType.String, campaignType);

 

 

  this.ReportParameters.Add(rp);

 

 

  this.Report.ReportParameters[i].UI.Text = campaignType;

 

 

  this.Report.ReportParameters[i].UI.Visible = true;

 

   i = i + 1;

}

So the area in green..this goes ahead and adds 3 parameters (i had 3 items in the list), but the problem is they are all new parameters in textboxes! I wanted to have 3 in one report parameter collection, as a dropdownlist.

I understand there is a reportparametercollection, but I did not see a way to add it to the report. Only to create it and add report items to it. This code is in the constructor of my report, by the way. Any suggestions on how to get the dropdownlist to appear, and have it's datasource as the generic?

Thanks so much!

Hello,

Hi

I have a requirement for many reports which are fixed in their length for each page. i.e. the detail section takes up the whole page.

Some of these reports are more than one page.

How do I in the detail section force a page break at a specific point ?

I do no twant to use the Before/After and Before and After feature already in the properties. I need to force a page break in the middle of the detail section.

Kind Regards

David

I have a report that has a group section. In that group section I have a textbox called BranchPoints that is an expression to get the points for each branch Here is the expression(=IIf(Sum(Fields.points) > 2500, 2500, Sum(Fields.points) )). In my header section, i need a textbox that will have an expression that needs the sum of the branch points. I cant have a total sum of the report. Is there a way in the header expression that I can call the textbox (branchpoints). So this is what I am looking for in the header textbox

=Sum(BranchPoints)

Is this possible? In crystal you can create a field and use it anywhere else in the report. Can Telerik do this?
I am doing this all through the report interface. I am not doing it programmatically.
