How can I add an option in the export dropdownlist of the report viewer - Export to CSV file format?

Thanks,

I have created a report that works as I intended. But after every page I have an empty page with only the header and footer on it? None of the "PageBreak" are set. (they all default to 'None'

Is there anything I can post to clear this out or is this a known issue?
We are using Reporting V1.0

Thanks!

I have a series of reports that I need to create that are all very similar in format and data returned, but each one uses a slightly different sql query, with slightly different columns coming back. What I'd like to do is build one that is the most generic, then copy that report serveral times and make the necessary changes to the query. Trouble is, when I create a report (and get the corresponding .vb, .resx and .xsd files and then copy those... I get a great big mess - dataset names, table adapter names, etc. Is there a recommended way to perform this process?

Hi
Pls could I urgently get a link to a VB sample like the Orders sample with sub reports in C#.

Getting SubReports to work is no easy task!

Thank you

I recently ran in to a problem using the reporting tools where I had a custom object with no blank constructor. In order to make the reports dynamic and change the report based on some sort of id supplied I came up with the following solution.

Explanation of Process:

Object Car is pulled from the database
Fields of object car are placed in to fields of report

    public partial class CarReport : Report { 
        public CarReport() { 
        } 
 
        public CarReport(int id){ 
            Car c = GetFromDB.GetCar(23); 
            txtName.Value = c.Name; 
            txtType.Value = c.Type; 
        } 
    } 
 
 
    class GetFromDB { 
        public Car GetCar(int id) { 
            //Query Datbase and parse info 
 
            return new Car("FastCar", "Porsche"); 
        } 
 
    } 
 
    class Car { 
        private string strName; 
        private string strType; 
 
        public Car(string Name, string Type) { 
            strName = Name; 
            strType = Type; 
        } 
 
        public string Name { get { return strName; } } 
        public string Type { get { return strType; } } 
    } 


So by doing the following and creating an instance of the Report, binding it to the report viewer, you can have any object bound to any field on the report. I hope this helps.

I'm trying to update the value of a textbox with the following code.

ReportViewer1.Report = (Telerik.Reporting.Report)new AllItems();

Telerik.Reporting.TextBox txt = (Telerik.Reporting.TextBox)ReportViewer1.Report.Items["txtTitle"];

txt.Value = "wow";

It errors out giving a "The expression contains object 'ID' that is not defined in the current context."

Can this be done?

Hi,
i develop a web application which implements telerik chart controls etc. I add a new project for my ReportLib. When i add a new item (Telerik Report) in this and after successfully build i add this project reference to my website which has .aspx pages to view the reports in Telerik ReportViewer control used in aspx page. After adding this reference it failed to compile and gives the error: that Telerik.Charting.dll exist both in
Temporary ASP.NET Files and GAC .

I tried by removing telerik.charting reference from ReportLib but failed. Is there any solution. Please Help me.

Hello,

I am trying to add a backgroundimage to a chart on a report (Version Q2 2007). The problem is: One cannot use the normal Appearance-Fillstyle properties as they do not accept resources.

I tried using the Style.BackgroundImage property which accepts resouces. Looks fine in the designer, but the background image does not appear in the HTML preview (background white) nor the PDF rendered (background black).

There is something that makes me believe it is the right direction: In the PDF rendered, there is a black shape hiding the background image. When one moves the PDF file in the PDF viewer fast enough, it is sometimes possible to see the background behind that shape.

Is there a suggested way to get around this? As this is important for a production project of mine, I am thankful for a workaround as well.

Thank you,

Fabian

Hello,

I have found approx. 15 topics that don't have working links in the online documentation:

http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/

  • "Creating a Simple Report"
  • "Architecture"
  • "Designing Reports" --> "Creating a Report"
  • all 10 topics under "Setting Report Item Properties"
  • "Connecting Data to a Report"-->"DesigningReportsReportWizard"
  • "Using Styles to Customize Reports",
  • all 4 topics under "Advanced Report Styling"
  • Etc.

BTW, there were threads back in July and May pointing out similar problems - so this seems to be happening with each new release.  It might not hurt to ask the person who is posting them to check their work when they are done.

Best regards
