I'm working on a web application where we have to generate user-defined 'reports' based on a multitude of data.  The web application itself is used to monitor ATMs (Automatic Teller Machines).  For instance, these ATMs generate 'journal records' which describe how the ATMs is being used; there are transaction records which describe how much money was withdrawn, deposited, etc... and there are other types of journal records. 

Our users need to analyze these records in a multitude of ways: They may want to see the last 56 journal records (regardless of the type of record), they may want to view a particular journal record from 3 weeks ago, they may want to see the last 290 transaction journal records where a withdrawl was issued, etc.

From what I have seen from the Reporting demos, it seems most of the reports are 'canned' and don't allow for much user-defined-input.  So, I'm wondering if, for the type of user-defined information I need to present, is it better to go with a webcontrol like the RADGrid, rather than use Reporting?  Would the Reporting module be more geared toward say, allowing the user to view a canned-report of the "Top 50 transactions (cash-wise) during the last month"? 

I guess I'm wondering what the Reporting module offers outside the RADControls suite, besides the many export features. 

i am using your trial download and have installed on a machine which has VS2005 installed.

it hasnt installed the template "Telerick Report 1.5" into the visual studio installed templates?

forget that - i had vs opened when i installed and had to restart...

Hello Support Team,

I'm having 2 problems with Telerik Report version 2.0:

1/ I'm building a report libary,  I just create a report using a Stored Procedure with 2 parameters.

The problem is after a while or when I close the project and re-open it, when try to Preview the report, i got the error:
"Login failed for user 'myuser'"

But if I right click at SqlDataAdapter object, select Preview Data option, enter parameters i got return correct data.

Please tell me why the connect failed while I tried to Preview report?

2/ Let say 2 have 2 parameters: StartDate and EndDate.

I want to dynamic create a sub header for my report, like:

Period: StartDate - EndDate.

I would think using a Textbox with:
="Period " + Parameters.StartDate + " - " + Parameters.EndDate

But it doesnt recognize the Parameters.

How to achieve this goal?


thanks
Neil

I've been working on a report that requires me to manually add a grid of textboxes. I'm using a very standard method to do so (loop through an array and keep track of the current Y position etc. etc.).

However, for some insanely odd reason (I can't even wrap my mind around this), the third column item is pushed down further than all other items during the first iteration through my collection. Furthermore, this will only happen when I put textboxes above the area I build my grid in.

It's very cryptic to explain, so I've made a project that duplicates the behavior. I'm sure this is hard to understand, so I'll just post my project and wait for the questions.

Sample Project

I would absolutely love to see a R.A.D Reports to replace my Crystal solution. Just a simple window that you can build reports in and then have the ability to print (without exporting first), but also gives the ability to export to Word (.rtf or .doc), Excel, .pdf, or print directly to printer. I would guess it would also have to allow you to page through the report and zoom in and out. Has this already been mentioned?

Hi,
    1. In reporting tool by default there are 3 export format. It does not have export to excel and export to word. I need those in my application.
Does reporting tool supports the above mentioned exports as well ? Or I will have to write code for that. 

    2. I have to place picture box at runtime in my application. For that I have created an image folder in my application and have written the following (Code in VB.net):
         Picturebox1.value = ~(images/img.gif)
However it is not working. Please tell me how to assign the value at run-time.

Thanks,
Rahul
    

I have both VS2005 and 2008 installed so that I can continue to work with BizTalk 2006 projects until SP1 ships.  When I installed Telerik Reporting 2.0 it shows up in VS2005 on the splash, but not on VS2008.  How can I register it in VS2008?

Just wondering if it'll work for .Net 1.1? can it create charts?

What facilities are there available in Telerik Reporting to help get an accurately-sized paper-print (or PDF output) when using a WEB report viewer.

I have struggled with a supposedly "A4" report with the MS report viewer.. have put in the correct paper size (tried in cm AND in inches!) - but the PDF output is still completely screwed. (I can't even see a normal 'print' button...)

This has to be a major concern for web developers!

Has telerik 'come to our rescue', and produced something that is as nice as the (windows/desktop) report tools I am used to?
