3 quick questions:

1)  To illustrate grouping of several values on a report, I am adding a square shape on the report around several textboxes.  Designer shows me overlap warnings, but when I view it using Report Viewer, the textboxes get pushed to the right of the shape, instead of the shape appearing behind the textboxes.  Is there a setting to allow it to appear as I'm describing?

2) I often use cascading drop down parameters for narrowing down report results.  Whenever I set "MultiValue" to true on a Parameter, the selection box appears at random places on the screen, instead of being attached to the bottom of the control.  If I set "MultiValue" to false, the control behaves as expected.  The random selection box placement only happens using IE8 but works as expected using Chrome/Safari.

3) I am using a sliding pane with a RadMenu to categorize several reports.  Using Chrome/Safari, the RadMenu title text appears as one letter on top of another.  For example, if my title was "Billing Reports", it appears rotated 90 degrees on IE, but looks like this on Safari/Chrome.

I am developing on Server2003, Visual Studio 2005, and viewing using IE8, Chrome 1.0.154.53 , and Safari 4.

I have the trial or Telerik reporting.  I went through 2 videos (intro and data) and part of the pdf file.  I have a project with many object data sources already defined.  I am trying to use them in a new Telerik report I added to the project.  I tried going through the wizard, and the only way I could get to the data object names was to go to "Business Object" under choose a data souce type.  Then I choose the App_Code.5zwoels(), and then DataSet1TableAdapters, and the various TableAdapters are listed there.  However, when I choose one, all I get in the data explorer are 3 itesm:  "ClearBeforeFill', "Container" and "Site".  No field names.  What am I missing?

Hi anybody,

 

Good Day!

 

FYI - We own Telerik Reporting service tool.

 

1, I need to implement Bar Code in my report forms in which the Bar codes has to be displayed in the form retrieving the Bar code from the Database.

 

2, Also, I am binding the report form using Telerik Report Viewer Control. The form consists of 3 pages in total. But, I need to display only first two pages of the form in certain cases (i.e,) I need to make the third page invisible on certain conditions.

 

So, please help me with the following,

 

1, Could you please provide me with a sample code on how to implement Bar Code in forms retrieving the bar code numeric values from the database?

 

2, Could you also provide me with a sample code on how to control the number of pages to be displayed at certain conditions in Telerik Report Viewer?

 

Thank you for your help in advance.

I have a asp page running, the user selects to print the details of a certain route, how would I set up the report viewer and telerik report to show the report.

currently the program builds a collection of the information, but I am not sure how to pass that into the report viewer, could someone give me a little example on how this would work.

my setup now is I have an ASP page has the report viewer in it, in that page I am gathering the data needed for the collection, I have a myReport in the class library that the reportviewer is linked to
or does the data collection need to be done in the report class ?

I am trying to follow the examples in the telerik reporting manual, but the example they provide shows how to connect to a database.

thanks

I've been working with Telerik RadGrid, MasterTableView an I tried to export my data to Excel but with no success. The file is created and saved on my workstation but the file is not of "Excel" kind.

When I open the file it only contains HTML. Is this right? Excel says that the file is not of any correct Excel type!

Update: This error only occurs when you use "Excel Viewer" due to the fact that "Excel Viewer" can't convert the outputed HTML file to a "real" Excel formated document.

Is there anyway to get the output as a real Excel document not a invalid document in HTML?

Hi Telerik
   I just want to let you know my thought. I am using the Telerik Reporting Q1 2009 and trying to use the Report Parameters extensively. But doing so i come across a small bug, on using Multiple value parameters shown as a list of checkbox under a dropdown pulldown box. I made the selection for a bunch of data by checking them. When i go out of focus, the dropdown text shows my selection with semi-colon seperated and that's cool. By the way if i click the dropdown again it looks like it forgets all my selection and i got to do that again.

It will be nice if it remembers the selection made in the checkboxes if out of focus and it will be far better if it remembers that after the Preview has been clicked. Although its kind of remembers in the dropdown textbox (csv) but as soon i click on the dropdown everything wipes out.

Please let me know if you have done that for some purpose but i feel the usability is hard in that case.

Hi There
   I'm having a datatable prepared from the business layer and i need to use that for report parameters. But i am having hard time binding a column in that parameter.

Consider that i want to bind the (ProductId, ProductName) first & second column of the datatable to this report parameter and i want it to show all the row data as a multi value
public RegistrationSummaryReport() 
{
InitializeComponent();
            DataView source = getDataSource();  
            this.DataSource = source;            
            ReportParameter param = new ReportParameter(); 
            param.Name = "paramEP"
            param.Type = Telerik.Reporting.ReportParameterType.String; 
            param.UI.AvailableValues.DataSource = source
            param.UI.AvailableValues.ValueMember = "=Fields.ProductId"
            param.UI.AvailableValues.DisplayMember = "=Fields.ProductName"
            param.UI.MultiValue = true
            param.UI.Visible = true
            this.ReportParameters.Add(param); 

But as soon as i add this binding, and while executing the report gets empty and not even shows the rest of the report and when i remove the parameter addition and just binds the report and render all the data

I tried a work around to show the dropdown parameter in report viewer by doing the below code snippet instead.
public RegistrationSummaryReport() 
        {
InitializeComponent();
            DataView source = getDataSource();  
            this.DataSource = source
 
            List<string> eps = new List<string>(); 
            foreach (DataRowView dr in source) 
               eps.Add(DataUtility.MakeNullEmpty(dr["ProductName"])); 
             
            ReportParameter param = new ReportParameter(); 
            param.Name = "paramEP"
            param.Type = Telerik.Reporting.ReportParameterType.String;           
            param.UI.MultiValue = true
            param.UI.Visible = true
            param.Value = eps
            this.ReportParameters.Add(param); 

And now it shows the report and also the report parameter dropdown but with all the product name separated by semicolon in the value as it is coded to set as value (not as datasource) but i can only edit them but instead i want it to be a set of checkbox in the pulldown box of dropdown so that user can easily select them (as it would appear when i assign the datasource in design time).

Software Details
  • Windows XP sp2
  • Telerik Reporting Q1 2009
  • Visual Studio 2008

Please guide me a way to assign datasource to parameters dynamically. Thanks in advance. I greatly appreciate a sooner response.
