I'd like to know if the Web Telerik Report have a limitation about columns?

My Report shows 10 columns, but the position of the items are irregulars. If I delete 2 columns the position normalizes. Then, I supposes a limit of 8 columns.

That's right?

How can I do my Report works right?

We have a seiries of reports which are loaded into an I-Frame.  The address the I-frame points to is not the same domain as the website which contains the I-Frame, but the server which host the "report" url is located on another domain.    On our testing servers we seemed to have had no problem with this configuration, but when we posted this solution into production we ran across a problem with Internet Explorer. 

In FireFox browsers, the reports load up correctly and the process is transparent to the end user and they have no idea the reports are in fact a separate url.  But when attempting to load the reports in IE, the report viewer loads up, but it contains an error message to the effect of "Report is unavailable, or session has expired".  If we add the 'report' url as a trusted site we can get the reports to load correctly in IE.  Since we have several thousand users, most of which are not technically savy, having each one add the url as a trusted site would not be a practical solution. 

For the time being, we have the reports 'popping up' in a new window and they seem to load up fine.  We are hoping this is a temporary solution since we are trying to avoid popups and all the problems associated with popups(such as popup blockers).  I know hosting the reports on a separate domain is not an ideal situation, but it is the one I am presented with, and for the time being it is what I am required to work with.  I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction and as to where I could begin to look for the reason the I-frame will not correctly load the 'report' URL when browsing with IE.

An additonal note, both sites use a SSL certificate, but removing the certificates seems to make no difference.

Thanks in advance

Hi,
       Can we show data coming a particular file on report.
    eg If I have a word file on D Drive and not in database can I directly show that data in report by simply providing the path of that word file.
    If it is possible please tell how.

Thanks,
Rahul

I am working to modify the name of the textboxes in my report so that they are easily identifyable in my events.  This works, but after each time that I modify the textbox name in the Properties window, VS2005 begins doing some sort of processing which takes more than a minute.  I can't tell exactly what is happening, but I see a bunch of activity in the bottom left atea of the application where it is obviously polling through files and making modifications.

I also see this activity when I rename a report or something similar in the Solution explorer.  Is there any way around this?  It takes a lot of time.

Hi,

When I upload the Telerik Report to the webhost, all the icons on the reportviewer control bar become a "X". Beside that, the report does not load as well.

The code is working fine in localhost. Just wondering if there is some extra thing that I need to upload to the web host in order to get things work? Please advice.

Please do let me know if there are already documentation on this, as I couldn't find it anywhere as well. Thanks.

We are trying to use the mySQL database with Telerik Report, but, we are getting error when we using the SQL Statement as above.
But, in the report, it only show
"System.Byte[]" rather than the real value. Please advice.

I have been using Q2 2007 Reports for a couple months now and use the export to pdf programmatically and within the export options.  I upgraded to Q3 and now I can no longer export any report to any format.  I have removed all references to 1.5.1 and updated all to 2.0.0 and have also removed the binaries from gac and my machine in general.  So I don't think it is a referencing issue.  Also the reports come up very slooooow.  They used to come up in about 2 seconds, now its more like 2 minutes.  Any thoughts?

I'd like to know what is the best way to deal with large amount of data. I've some reports with complex SQL queries (lot of joins) and which return many lines, and I want my reports to be fast...
Should I use a sqlDataAdapter? a DataSet (and put it in cache or session?)? a business object?
Do you have some feedback to optimize reports?

Thanks in advance

I need to provide an "Export to Excel" functionality for Telerik reports for an application I am building. However, I don't see any options currently to accomplish this.

I'm planning to write my own report rendering method, but in order to do that I need a bit of starting information that I couldn't find through Google:

What do I need to do to tie my report rendering provider into Telerik's reporting controls?
How do I get started--is there a specific class structure, or perhaps some documentation on how to write your own provider that I just haven't found?

Thanks!

So..I was just handed an example of what the client wants now...  I cannot figure out how to do it with telerik reporting.  They want it exportable as PDF so I have to use telerik reporting.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 3 column detail table with N rows.  Widget Name, Widgets Sold, Sold %. Telerik Reporting is great at this!

Now client wants a graphical representation (horizontal bar chart with just 1 bar) between widget name and widgets sold (Think progress bar) representing sold %.  In standard asp/aspx front end, I could take a 1 px wide graphic and stretch it's width to Sold %, or repeat x Sold%.

Sales Territory X
Widget 1                                 0      0
widget  2        xxxxxx              6      60%
widget  9        xxxx                  4      40%

Is there a best practice with Telerik Reporting someone could suggest?
