Can someone provide me with some simple instructions on how to get started with reporting in a web form?  I can't find any instructions or documentation on how to add a new report to an existing web project.

TIA,
Chris

I've been looking for a good way to standardize reports across our several applications, and the use of the external style sheets seems to be a good way to go - I've set up each report to reference the style sheet. However there's a fairly large problem I'm not sure how to get around.

First, the solution structure:

1. Data Library
2. Reporting Library
3. Main application / Small seperate Reporting application /  Windows service

3 references 2 which references 1.

The problem is two fold.

A) I have a laptop and a desktop, and their folder structures differ. So one has H:\Documents\Projects\ReportingLibrary\ and the other has C:\Projects\ReportingLibrary. This causes me issues every time I switch back and forth, because the reports store the absolute path to the external style sheet - each time I switch I get path not found errors and I can't even view the report without first going in and manually changing the path.

B) I tried solving the above problem by entering a relative path manually - ie, "\\Stylesheet.xml". This .. sort of works. Unfortunately (and I would consider this a bug) the designer seems to think that it needs to look in the SOLUTION folder for the relative path! So as soon as I add the ReportingLibrary project to another solution it errors out again (and remember, I've got 3 different solution files, one for each type of application).

End result is I'm chucking copies of this xml file all over my projects just to get the designer to behave - I've got it working to extract the xml from the resource manifest in the dll and use that at run time, but during design time it is kind of important to have your styles properly applied.

I would request 2 options here:

1. Have an option for specifying a relative path in the collection editor for external styles.
2. When resolving relative paths at design time, start at the project level, not the solution.

Hello,

I am using Telerik reporting 2.5/VS2005/VB.net.

In a group footer, I want to conditionally suppress lines that have zero values.
Example:

Totals for conference 232322
800 callers        9
Local callers      5
Dialout callers    2
Total callers        16

If there are no Local callers, I want the following ....
Totals for conference 232322
800 callers        9
Dialout callers    2
Total callers        11

With no blanks for the rows, a total suppression of the lable and counter field.

Thanks, Ken

if i use substr to simply show the first 20 chars of an address, =substr(Address,20) its fine as long as the address is longer than 20 chars and isnt null, but delivers errors if the address is either short or null

When publishing my web application to the production site, I get this applicaiton error on start up:

Parser Error Message: Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Reporting.Interfaces, Version=2.0.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a9d7983dfcc261be' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Here is a screen shot of the files in my /bin folder on the production server:

I don't need to install the Telerik Reporting components on the production web server, do I?

Thanks,

I have a section on my report that display the company name, street address, city, state and zip all stacked on top of one another. My problem is that when someone enters a two line street address, the second  line bleeds over on top of the city. Is there a way to dynamically increase the size of the textbox to accommodate the second line and then push all of the textboxes underneath it down.

Thanks
Jeff
