Is it a bug or a design limitation of the Trial version that I cannot either print or save a report in PDF format?

Hi

I have been working with charting for telerik reporting, and I have to render a chart for each row in the report. The chart should display values depending on the values of the row. Is there a way to know the value of the row when the NeedDataSoourcet event of the chart is called?? or can I change the datasource of the Chart in the ItemDataBound or ItemDataBinding events of the detail section?? or Can this be accomplished by any way?

Thanks in advance.

Is there an easier more direct way to get those values from a RadGrid and apply those to the Report? Thanks

Hi,

I'm trying to add a UI element to my report allowing users to select columns in the report to use for sorting.

Following the documentation I have successfully enabled the Parameters area in the report and a drop-down box duly appears containing the expected values. However, on first rendering the report a red circle appears next to the drop-down saying "invalid value" and no data appears in the report. First question is: how can I ensure unsorted values appear by default in the report as it loads?

More confusingly, although the report will successfully "preview" once a sort field has been selected, no sorting actually seems to occur. I've been messing around with the sort property of the report and I can't seem to get the syntax right to enable sorting. What I want to happen is for the ValueMember of the drop-down box DataSource to become the field used for sorting the data (the strings are identical) .. how can I achieve this?

(It's probably worth mentioning that some of the field names contain spaces, and the syntax I need for this is also confusing me ... is it Fields.fieldname with space or "Fields.fieldname with space" or Fields.[fieldname with space] or something else?)

Is there any way of getting a parameter from an external object - say a querystring on the page containing the ReportViewer and the passing it down to the report that the viewer is loading?

Cheers,
Matt

Requirements

RadControls version

Q3 2008
.NET version

3.5 SP1
Visual Studio version

2008 SP1
programming language

ASP.NET, C#
browser support

all browsers supported by RadControls


PROJECT DESCRIPTION
I have created a project to demonstrate how to have a n-Tier hierarchy (data layer, class library, web app) and use the Telerik Reports. This demo allows the user to pass in a parameter to the constructor of the report, which can then be used to retrieve data from the backend database. Currently the dataset is created manually for demo purposes but this could be extended easily to bring back data from SQL server. Also this demo illustrates the use of a SQL Server Session state and a unique Machine key for your web app. To use this functionality you need to run aspnet_regsql.exe against your database to generate the necessary tables for asp.net to use a database backend for credentials and session state.

the 3 relevant lines of code to change in the web.config (excluding the addition of a connection string entry, are

<sessionState mode="SQLServer" allowCustomSqlDatabase="true" sqlConnectionString="ADD YOUR SQL CONNECTIONSTRING HERE" cookieless="UseCookies" timeout="60" regenerateExpiredSessionId="true"/> 
... 
<machineKey validationKey="ADD YOUR VALIDATION KEY HERE" decryptionKey="ADD YOUR DECRYPTION KEY HERE" validation="SHA1"/> 
... 
<authentication mode="Forms"
</authentication> 
 


Hope this helps someone as it took me a while to get this working the way I wanted it to.

Using the report writer Q2 2008, I have the following text box which works when there is a value in the date, but errors when there is not.

="Change Date " + Fields.ChangeDt.ToString("dd MMM yyyy")

I would like to make the entire textbox invisible, or have it ignored when the value ChangeDt is null or empty.

How can this be done?

Thanks

Hi

I'm new user of telerik controls, recently I have been working with telerik reporting. I'm using Visual Studio 2005, .Net Framework 2.0 is a web application with AJAX functionality. And my questions are the following:

Is there a way to sort a subreport by user input, that user can select the column and the order he desires to be sorted?
Also can this be accomplished by using parameters or any other means?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

I want to know if there is a programatic way to creating charts on the Telerik Reporting Suite. I have tried the winforms documentations that gives a very clear indication on how to , but the problem is that the methods and object declarations are diferent in the reporting suite.

And if so can you please point me to a doc or tutorial

Thank you
