Programmatically create databindable report

Hi!

We have a complex scenario where it's necessary to programmatically create the reports. This is the typical scenario of building the report:

1. The report layout and properties are set.
2. Report items are added to the report, e.g. a Chart.
3. The properties of the Chart is set and since we are binding to a dataset of unknown contents we register to the NeedDataSource event.
4. The NeedDataSource event is triggered and the datasource is set.
5. The Report is displayed in the ReportViewer.

Here's my question: We need to specifiy properties for the series created after the report items have been databound, e.g. DefaulLabelValue/DataLabelsColumn etc.. We've tried setting these values by looping through the ChartSeries collection in the ItemDataBound event but without any success.

How do you suggest this is done?

Regards
Linus

Change Styles for Print and more...

I am researching asp.net controls for reporting. I am looking for a control that will allow me to set a different style for print, even a different layout.
I haven't downloaded the trial because I am only a designer and do not have the programming skills involved. I am simply doing the research into this control.
So if anyone could lead me to some documentation on how to do this if even possible that would be great.
I know you can create and export/import styles for different reports, but in one report basically I have a web style and a print style.

Thanks in advance.

Report + SubReport with Chart = Cache problems

Hi, I create a project with two report's.
One report (the master) contains tabular data and another report (the subreport) with only the Chart.

The problem:
When I run the main report the first time, the tabular data on master report and the chart in subreport shows correctly.

But if I change the parameters on the mater report, only a data in a master report is correctly refresh. The chart of subreport stay with first values. I try copy the Chart to master report without success.

I use a Chart with NeedDatasource event.

Upgrade to Q2 2008 problem

I upgraded to Q2 2008 and now the telerik reporting menu in VS2008 only shows Upgrade Wizard.
I ran through the upgrade wizard and re-started but it is still the only option in the menu, and when I add a new report I no longer get the report wizard.

Assigning a DataSource to SubReport in ReportViewer

I have bundle.cs that inherits Report that contains a subreport
I have a print.aspx.cs that has an instance of reportviewer.
How can I find the subreport and assign the DataSource in print.aspx.cs?
We use WebServices which are only available in the print.aspx.cs file, otherwise I would have done everything in the bundle.cs file.

Thanks

[Solved] No predefined label layouts

When I create a new report using the wizard and choose Label as the Report Type, I then enter what data columns to use and hit next. This takes me to a screen labeled 'Choose a predefined Label layout'. There are no options for me to choose. What gives?
