I'm looking for some advice on how to protect reports that are ultimately displayed in ASPX pages.  I have developed a Silverlight 3 application.  Within the application, I am able to execute a report, and display this report in an HtmlPlaceholder or a seperate browser window.  Because this report is embedded within an ASPX page, anyone can simply type in the URL for the report (www.MyWebSite.com/MyReport.aspx) and cause the report to be generated.  These reports contain sensitive data, so I want to make sure that the pages are authenticated appropriately before they can be accessed.  Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

My environment is IIS 7, my Silverlight 3 application, plus the reports (each embedded in its own ASPX page).  These are anonymous users that must log into my Silverlight 3 application.  I do not wnat users to be able to access the ASPX pages without going through the SL3 app.

We are using R.A.D Grid 2006 and Telerik reporting 2009 in our project.

the rad grid has the ability for the user to edit update and delete. Also we rename the column headers in the item_binding.  the user has the ability for paging and sorting. now we want the datagrid snapshot(data) to be fed to the telerik reporting as the data source.

The usual way of telerik reporting is to be bind a datasource and get the reports. In this case as the user has changed paging and sorting in the rad grid, we want to have them remembered and fed to the reports.

Second question:

simply stated how can pass on the rad grid data as a data source to the telerik report including the paging and sorting state.

Any suggestion would be of great help.

I have a report with a simple bar chart. I am using report parameters to filter the queries. When i edit the parameter values and hit preview, the chart needdatasource event fires but the chart is not getting updated in the report.
 
below is the code in the  chart needdatasource event. I am populating the recordCount collection in the Report NeedDatasource event.
 private void chart1_NeedDataSource(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Chart procChart = (Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Chart)sender;
            Telerik.Reporting.Chart defChart = (Telerik.Reporting.Chart)procChart.ItemDefinition;
            
            procChart.DataSource = null;
            procChart.DataSource = recordCount;
            
                     

            defChart.Series[1].DataYColumn = "Status";
            defChart.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = "chartlbl";

            //defChart.PlotArea.XAxis.LayoutMode = Telerik.Reporting.Charting.Styles.ChartAxisLayoutMode.Inside;
            defChart.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.TextProperties.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Ariel", 8);

            
        }


Could you please let me know if I am doing anything wrong above.

Thanks

Hi Telerik Team,

I have a problem - again :-(.

Since the other one is still not solved I'm confrontated with another problem now.
I have a chart in my report which shows a StackedBar. There are 52 bars. One for every week of the year. So the Xaxis doesn't really look nice because the shown week numbers overlap. So I decided to use the LabelStep property. But whenever I use a value greater than 1 the DocumentBytes of the RenderingResult coming from the RenderReport Method is NULL. When using the value 1 everything is fine.

I have installed the latest version of Telerik Reporting shown in web.config as Version 3.1.9.807.

What do I have to regard when using the LabelStep Property?

Thank you for your help!

I have a report that has a parameter called prmMeetingDate
The data source for prmMeeting contains two columns: [id] and [date]

The value is derived from the [id] column and the displaymember is derived from the [date] column.

On the report header, I want to display the [date] of the selected prmMeetingDate. I know that I can display the value of the parameter on the header but that will not work since it will display the [id] which is of no use to the end user.

How do I do this? Thanks.

I have a form with some products and uses can export that to pdf. I was wondering if I could make that pdf editable so they could select checkboxes etc in that offline pdf and print it? Thanks.

hi,

In the progress of designing my report, i put some controls (PictureBox, Shape, TextBox...) then i have a question is how can i access to these controls at run-time ? Such as, i want to type some texts on Textbox control, change image on PictureBox, change the title of report...

Sorry for a question again that is not relative to Telerik reporting. I known that ComponentOne's report supports a feature is i can type text on textbox on Print Preview so the Telerik Reporting support this feature ?

Thanks

(Sorry for my bad english)

I am trying to get a line chart to display two different series of data that come from the same datasource(table). Here is my code. It seems the chart is correctly adding the second series when looping through the string values that come back from the one parameter, but only one line is drawn on the chart for the data. How can I filter data down to only certain records per chart series...I've gone through a lot of foums and can't seem to find an answer for this. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
basically I need the series name to match the value in the ID column for this datatable....

        private void chart1_NeedDataSource(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

           chart1.DefaultType = ChartSeriesType.Line;

          

           ArrayList al = new ArrayList();

           al = (ArrayList)this.ReportParameters[0].Value;

 

           (sender as Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Chart).DataSource=                                   this.serverAvgCPUDS.ServerAvgCPUDSTable; 

          

           foreach (string s in al)

           {

               ChartSeries series = new ChartSeries(s.ToString());

               series.Type = ChartSeriesType.Line;

 

               series.DataYColumn = "Percent";

               series.DataLabelsColumn = "Time";

 

               chart1.Series.Add(series);

               series = null;

           }

 

        }

Hello,

           I want to generate PDF output on Click of ASP.NET Button click.I am using following code to generate it

         

private

void ExportToPDF(Telerik.Reporting.Report reportToExport)

 

{

Telerik.Reporting.Processing.

ReportProcessor reportProcessor = new ReportProcessor();

 

Telerik.Reporting.Processing.RenderingResult result = reportProcessor.RenderReport(

"PDF", reportToExport, null);

 

 

string fileName = result.DocumentName + ".pdf";

 

Response.Clear();

Response.ContentType = result.MimeType;

Response.Cache.SetCacheability(

HttpCacheability.Private);

 

Response.Expires = -1;

Response.Buffer =

false;

 

Response.AddHeader(

"Content-Disposition",

 

 

string.Format("{0};FileName=\"{1}\"",

 

 

"attachment",

 

fileName));

Response.OutputStream.Write(result.DocumentBytes, 0, result.DocumentBytes.Length);

Response.End();

}


in above code "ReportProcessor" class is available in "Telerik.Reporting.Processing" Namespace, but I cant see "RenderingResult" class.Also I can't find  "RenderReport" method on "reportProcessor" object.I have added both the required dll ie. "Telerik.Reporting" and "Telerik.Reporting.Processing" .But I am using trial version of this Control.

So, is it a issue related to trial version dlls or am i miising any reference thats needs to be done?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Ajay

Can someone please direct me to an example where the user uses a calendar(s) to set a date range for a report parameter?  For example, I need to see all records from Jan8 to Feb16; where the user sets the date range at runtime.

Thanks,
