In Report 1.1 version, I am successful to show Chinese in pdf output file (I have installed ArialUnicodeMS in web server). But the out pdf file size is over 15MB.

In Report 1.5 version, my program cannot show Chinese in pdf output file in the same environment. The output pdf file size is only 11kB. The pdf reader prompts error for "No ArialUnicodeMS font is found" when opening the file.

I suspect in Report 1.5 version, the font embedding in pdf file has changed for something. Please help.

Benson.

Hello -

I am creating a module for a DNN site and my goal is to have a single page/user control for displaying the reports. 

I created a Reports class library that currently has 5 reports, but this will grow as time goes by. 

Currently, I have a drop-down list on the page that displays the list of reports that the user can select.  Once they select and press a "Run" button, the selected report should run.

In the button's click event, I have a SELECT CASE statement (this is all vb.net) that sets the report based on the value the user picks.

Is there a better way or more preferred way to handle this type of situation?  Note, there will be some parameters that are the same across all reports, and there are other parameters which do not appear on every report.

This my current code:
  Select Case reportID ' the value from the report drop-down list
  Case 1
        Dim report as ReportLib.ReportOne = New ReportLib.ReportOne
        report.param_Department = Me.DropDownList2.SelectedValue.ToString()
        report.param_EndDate = Me.txtDate.Text.ToString()

  Case 2
        Dim report as ReportLib.ReportTwo = New ReportLib.ReportTwo
        report.param_Department = Me.DropDownList2.SelectedValue.ToString()
  
Case 3
        Dim report as ReportLib.ReportThree = New ReportLib.ReportThree
        report.param_Department = Me.DropDownList2.SelectedValue.ToString()
        report.param_TopValue = Me.txtTopvalue.text.toString()

End Select

thanks

Developers are on the verge of abandoning Telerik Reporting and it was my decision to move from ActiveReports to Telerik so I hope you can help.

We are generating three reports for an application. The reports aren't overly complex (shows monthly invoices). Whenever a user tries to create the report the web server CPU spikes to 100% and eventually the page times out. Originally thought is was one of the Oracle queries but that doesn't explain why the web server CPU would spike.

Any insight would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

I am just wondering why telerik created another reporting solution. What's the initiative? What's the compelling reason to create another one while there are a number of reporting solutions on the market, such as SSRS, Active Report, Crystal Report, you name it? What are the unique features provided by telerik? Why should I choose telerik instead of others which have already been in the market for over years?

I am sorry if I am posting to wrong forum, but I just did not find enough information from the reporting product page. Thanks!

Hi There

I am considering purchasing Telerik Reporting for the school where I work but was wondering if, when using VB.net 2005, I can continue deploying my projects with clickonce deployment after I start to use Telerik Reporting.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Telerik.

I have attemped to bind a report to a object graph using values such as:

IList<Project> list = GetProjects(); 
this.DataSource = list; 
textBox1.Value = "=Location.StationName";   

But I receive the error "The expression contains object 'Location' that is not defined in the current context".

Does Telerik Reporting allow the querying of fields in a deep object graph to be used in a report?

Thanks,
J.

Has anyone created a report that prints on Avery 8160 labels that they can share? :)

I have a pretty basic column report setup. Everything looks good in the designer and when I preview it - the column headers are in the page header, and everything is lined up very nicely.
What I want to do is add a couple lines (title, and some other report-specific info) to the header as well. If I do this and lay it out just like I want it in the designer, it looks fine when I preview. It looks fine when I export to a pdf. However, if shifts all my column headers to the right about 1/2" in the web viewer. If I remove those extra textboxes it goes back to displaying fine all around. I've tried adjusting cangrow/canshrink, textwrap, multiline, etc. with the exact same results. Help?

My project has come to a grinding halt.  I've had to bind my report to a SqlDataReader.  I know that theres 4 records in my test db that should be returned and displayed in 3 columns.  I have set the columns to 3.  My result... is the very last record displayed in the center of the report..... So heres my question:

how do I manage to get multicolumns to work in asp 2.0? (designing mail lists for use with Avery 8160)

I've used the business card report demo as a guidline but still doesn't work as it should.

I have the margins set to where I beleive they should be as will as the column width and spacing. 

--------
I've fixed part of my problem... now I don't get the first record, but I get the other 3 by settting this.DataSource = dr;

but they are all in 1 vertical column rather than 1 horizontal row (not sure if thats normal or not, I'll have to add more to see what happens)
-----

I've added enough records that should flow over to the 2nd column... unfortunately, it stays in 1 column and continues on a second page... then the paging does work... perhaps this is an issue for tech support?

First, does Telerik offer any capabilities that facilitate a Table of Contents (with or without page numbers numbers) at the beginning of a report?  Are there any examples for this?

Second, is there a feature that adjusts the margins on a duplex printed document depending on whether the page is the front or the back?

Thanks
