I need to include hyperlinks in my reports when they are rendered in the Web Viewer.  I'm currently using Q3 2008 and everything works fine.  I set the text of the textbox to include HTML like <a href="google.com">Click Me</a>.

I'm in the process of upgrading to Q1 2009, but it looks like my approach doesn't work anymore.  It seems the size of the textbox gets calculated based on the size of the text (including all the HTML code) so the textbox gets really large (even though when the browser processes the text, it's considerably smaller). 

So if I have a textbox who's Text is set to <a href="http://AReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyLongLink.com">Q</a>, the textbox takes up a huge area but it ends up being only 1 characeter.

I thought I might be able to use the HtmlTextBox but it seems to completly ignore (and remove) hyperlinks.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Hi,

I'm using Telerik Reporting to create various reports consisting of a page header/footer with 3 groups with headers and footers. When I initially set it up it worked fine for a one page report. If the report grows more than 2 pages it will insert a full page of whitespace inbetween pages. I thought it could be the footers so i made them invisible, set their height to 0, still didn't work. I don't know what could be causing these random pages of whitespace. Have you ever encountered this problem with whitespace pages before or do you have some help for me?

Thanks a million

Hi,

I have looked at some of the report videos.  I am still not clear about how to use the parameters that one sets on the reports.  I have a couple of DateTime parameters which appear on my report.  They look cool with the Date Picker, but how do I send these parameters to the report?  When I change it does not seem to have any effect on the report.  My SQL query does have parameters in it and they have default values.

Thanks,
Darren

I have a report with several report parameters.  Two of these are datetime parameters which, on initial report start, I want to have set to a null value.

So, I have the parameters set up as Type = DateTime  and  AllowNull = True  and  Value = Null.

In preview mode in VS, it looks fine, both parameters initialize with today's date but with the NULL checkbox on.  This is how I want it.

But when I run the report page, they initialize with no value, NULL NOT checked on, and the 'Invalid Value' icon is showing.

I have tried setting the initial values in the code with:
this.ReportParameters["dateparameter"].Value = null;
but this does not work.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I have a List item on my report which is bound to a DB table.  If the List's data source is empty (returns no results), the List item is still generated and on the report the List takes up as much empty space as the List item takes up on the layout in the Designer. I would prefer if the List's data source is empty, that the List item should not even render and any Report items below it should move up to fill its space. Is this possible to achieve?

My problem is particularly severe:

My List is composed of only 3 items - 1 PictureBox to display an image, one TextBox to display the image title, and another TextBox to display a caption for the image.

However, the List is sized quite large to accomodate the PictureBox, the latter of which is 6 in. W x 7 in. H. Consequently, one of these List items intentionally accomodates an entire 8.5x11 page when the report is generated. 

So you see, my problem is should the data source for the List return no results, my List item - given its large dimensions in the Report Designer - still generates a very large empty white space in my report (an entirely blank page in this case). This looks especially silly because the List item is preceeded and followed by other Report Items which contain actual data.

Is there a way to sort the columns of a crosstab report?

I've tried sorting the stored procedure and tried adding a Sorting expression to the crosstab control but neither seem to work.

Hi,

I am creating a report on a WinForm application.
The report is working as I expect, but i have one problem and i can not find the expected solution.
I want to avoid any preview and any Print Screen,  I need to send this report directly to the default printer installed withou any confirmation or question.
I am creating an isolated application that contains telerik reports.
Is this posible with telerik reports ??
Here I am posting some codin that i am using:
frmReport.ReportViewer1.Report = New PrintServer.Series

frmReport.ReportViewer1.Report.DataSource = tbl

frmReport.ReportViewer1.RefreshReport()

frmReport.ReportViewer1.PrintReport()



Thanks in advanced

Specifically, looking at the "Configuring Telerik Reporting Config Section", the sample references Telerik.Reporting.Processing, Version x.x.x.x.

Shouldn't this be Telerik.Reporting Version x.x.x.x in Q2 2009?
