Hi,

when I'm trying to convert XtraReports v8.2.2 report to telerik report, "XtraReports" is listed among Available Converters in the Report Wizard, however, the "Browse" button is greyed out. I
s it possible to convert a report from XtraReports version higher than v8.1 (build 8.1.6.0) to relerik? Or exactly version 8.1 must be used? Are you planning an update? Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Daniel

When printing any application from your online demos, the adobe print setup dialog pops up from my pc when prompted to print.  The reports print perfectly (alternating row shading, full 8.5 x 11 printing) and as they are seen through the browser.   The problem is that on all other pc's we have tested (5-6), the rest will pop up the standard print setup dialog and the printed result looks as if a javascript "window.print()" was called on the report and the quality is just not as good. (yes, adobe pdf reader has been installed on all pc's tested).  

Any ideas as to why this is happening?  I would like to have the adobe print dialog (or whatever registered pdf reader is installed on the users pc) prompt in place of the standard windows print setup dialog due to the increased print quality.  Thanks!

I am trying to put a logo in the page header but i get the following error:


Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture.  Make sure "Timesheet.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "App_Code.19fyk_ap" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.

Any Suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Hi

This is a strange problem as we don't get this error but a few (very few) of our clients are getting it.  When attempting to export a report to pdf or csv, they get the following:

Internet Explorer can not download Telerik.ReportViewer.axd from <our url>.  

Note that just behind this message (which is in a popup box) is another popup box with the title:

0% of Telerik.ReportViewer.axd  from <our url>

In comparison to our successful attempts, we don't see these popups instead, a blank IE screen appears and then a popup appears requesting us to open or save the pdf/csv file.

Their browser appears to be attempting to download the axd file rather than continuing to provide them with the pdf or csv file.  This is in itself strange, as we use other Telerik controls on our website (which use the WebResources.axd file) and they have no problems.  They are using Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP and consistently get this error.  Note that they can view the report fine it is only when they try to export it do they get this error.  Note also that they only tried to download to CSV and PDF - it likely would have happened with other formats as well.

We've tested it locally on several configurations (Vista / XP, IE 6 / IE 7, FireFox) and had no problems.

What could be causing their problem?

Very like your work, but don't see some features.

Do you have support for external report templates - like RDL templates in SSRS?
Support of end user report editor?

We are going 100s of reports and we dont want them to be hard coded in .cs.

Hi:

I have a few simple questions - i hope.

Q1. ----------------------------------------------------

I have a report that needs to retreive its data from an SQL function. The SQL Function requires 3 parameters (company,startdate,stopdate)  to be passed to it, and then it returns a table with the desired information.

I created a report (using the wizard)  that has 3 Report Parameters. They are defined as:

1. MyCompany, 2. MyStartDate, 3. MyStopDate

All are these are set as visible, so that they show up in the Report Viewer, and allow the user to select the 3 required values.

What I need to do is have the Report Parameters to be automatically passed to the SQL function.

For ex. Whatever the user enters for "MyCompany" to automatically be used as the "company" parameter when calling the SQL Function.

We can do this with MS SQL Reports, but can't seem to get your report system to make this work.


Q2. --------------------------------------

Also, another problem I'm having is that I can't seem to get the Refresh button on the Web Report Viewer to actually refresh a report. I can't find any event that gets raised when the Refresh button is clicked. Please tell me how I can use this button with server side code. I need to know when the button is clicked on the web page, so that I can somehow rebuild the report, and have the refreshed report re-displayed on the web page.


Thanks for any help you can provide.

We have created a very dynamically generated report (meaning that it adds subreports and columns depending on the data that is bound to it). When I run the report as a PDF, it works just fine. However, when I export the report as an MHTML or XLS, I get the "Parameter is not valid" exception when it attempts to render the report.

Dim mimType As String = String.Empty 
                Dim extension As String = String.Empty 
                Dim encoding As System.Text.Encoding = Nothing 
                Dim buffer As Byte() = Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor.Render("MHTML", tReport, Nothing, mimType, extension, encoding) 
                Dim fs As New FileStream("C:\Report" ID & ".MHTML", FileMode.Create) 
                fs.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length) 
                fs.Flush() 
                fs.Close() 

Like I said, it renders everything perfectly find as a PDF, but when it attempts to render it as an MHTML file or XLS, it blows up.

We are using the NeedDataSource event handler of the SubReports inside of the Main report as described by Telerik as the right thing to do, and it does work flawlessly for PDF. From there we are adding columns and sizing things in the subreport for each section that needs to be added to the report.

Hello all -

I have a quick question about series.  Given the following result set:

 
Content Knowledge           Other Supervisor    3.846153 
Content Knowledge           Peer                4.423076 
Content Knowledge           Primary Supervisor  4.571428 
Content Knowledge           Self                4.000000 
Cross Cultural Intelligence Other Supervisor    3.933333 
Cross Cultural Intelligence Peer                4.941176 
Cross Cultural Intelligence Primary Supervisor  5.000000 
Cross Cultural Intelligence Self                4.333333 
Emotional Intelligence      Other Supervisor    4.375000 
Emotional Intelligence      Peer                4.363636 
Emotional Intelligence      Primary Supervisor  5.000000 
Emotional Intelligence      Self                3.888888 
Leadership Attributes       Other Supervisor    4.045454 
Leadership Attributes       Peer                4.157894 
Leadership Attributes       Primary Supervisor  4.916666 
Leadership Attributes       Self                4.083333 
Social Intelligence         Other Supervisor    4.050000 
Social Intelligence         Peer                4.625000 
Social Intelligence         Primary Supervisor  4.181818 
Social Intelligence         Self                4.200000 

Is it possible to auto generate the series rather than having to create them manually?  In this example there should be 4 series (Self, Peer, Other Supervisor, Primary Supervisor).  The x-axis grouping should be Content Knowledge, Emotional Intelligence, etc.  The y data value should be average score.

It seems if I don't manually create the series but only set the following properties on the chart object, it will create the series for me automatically but it is always of type bar chart and I need a line chart.

 
chart1.DataGroupColumn = "RaterType"
chart1.Legend.Appearance.GroupNameFormat = "#VALUE"
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = "QuestionSetName"

Having to create the series manually seems like a lot of work.  Any insight to this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
