We are considering using Telerik reporting to view our reports.  However, our company also uses Cognos reports.  Are there any converters available for convering Cognos reports to Telerik reports?

Thanks.

I am trying to setup a asp.net page that can run a report based on a report name in the querystring. How can I make this happen?

I tried this
Dim ReportName As String = Request.QueryString("Report")  
        If ReportName IsNot Nothing Then 
            Dim r As Telerik.Reporting.Report = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetType("MyReportProject." & ReportName))  
            ReportViewer1.Report = r  
        End If 

But it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

I'm not sure if this can be done or not. I've looked through the documentation and haven't found anything as of yet. I'm trying to figure out if we can build telerik reports and add/copy the report to an already live existing project without the need to add the report to the project or solution and then recompiling the project. We are often asked to add a report to a site that is already active. We currently using active reports which can do this, but we are looking at moving to telerik reports. We build our projects to actively look at a certain directory to show the current list of reports to choose from to run. We often will build a new report and add it to the directly without recompiling the project to recognize the new report.

Can anyone help with an answer?

Hello,

      Just like to ask, does telerik support sorting for other culture like SQL does (Through Collation)? Example for Taiwan culture it sorted by strokes and for china it sorted by pronunciation using SQL. If not, does telerik intend to cater for this?

Thanks.

I've noticed that, when entering a parameter's value within this editor dialog, if you use the "Edit Expression" screen to generate the value's new text then it automatically puts an equals sign, '=', at the beginning of both the boolean constant values. This seems to cause the text to be treated as a string rather than as a boolean, and it gives you an "unable to convert string to a boolean" error, (or similar), as it's trying to parse the text "=True" into a boolean.
Removing the equals sign resolves the error, but as it took me a while to realise this I wanted to let everyone else know, and also to see if Telerik are aware of this.

I am trying to convert some of our reports from ActiveReports (5.2.1013.2) to Telerik Reports (Q1 2009).  While using the Telerik Report Wizard, I am able to select ActiveReports from the Available Converters and browse to the dll that contains the ActiveReports reports.  After I select the dll, no reports appear.  Please provide some insight on this problem.

Where can I find a detailed list of the HTML tags supported by the HTMLTextBox control in Telerik Reports? I need to write a converter program to convert text stored as RTF to HTML and would like to limit the output to only tags that Telerik Reports will support.

Thanks in advance!

I am not finding any examples in the documentation on this.

I have two report parameters, and I want to populate their values in the code-behind.  The first one to be populated with a static (string) list.  The second one to be populated from a SQL datasource.

Can you point me towards some sample code for this?
Thanks
