New user and a couple of things I noticed that would be nice to see in the next version.

1. Ctrl C and Ctrl V. Yes I am old. When setting up reports. I will copy and paste objects many times. Having to use the right click really slows me down. Think of adding boxes around fields. You want to set the box up once, and then copy and resize as needed.

2. Select all/Copy on the "configure data source command" window. Numerous times when developing reports I realize that I need to alter my query. I have to use the mouse to select all the text, right click, copy and then back into SQL to modify it. Would be nice to have a faster way of doing that.

3. Drag and Drop of Data Explorer Fields. Yes you can drag and drop fields to the report canvas. However, there are 2 things that would be nice. First, the scroll bar resets its position so you now have to scroll through the list of fields to figure out where you last left off. Finally, there is no visual indicator such as a check mark of color to indicate that you have already added this field to the report.

4. Suppress blank fields. This is a Crystal Reports feature that I loved (sorry..had to say it). I could create a container, stack vertically numerous fields and if any field as empty, it would hide it and move the rest up. I read the article you have on this and it does work. However, having to manually shrink all fields, then set the Can Shrink and Can Grow attribute...really cumbersome.

I set the reportSource parameters in Javascript and they get passed to the WebApi, but when the method my Report's ObjectDataSource is wired up to is called, the parameters are null. I setup the report parameters and the objectdatasource parameters and made sure they all have the same name. I have been used JustDecompile to see why the parameters don't get passed all the way through and it seems as though in the end the reportsource parameters are empty.

I am working on Telerik Report and i want to add filtering on report parameter. I have two multi value dropdowns. When multiple values from one box is selected data in other multi value box is  filtered. I am having issue with FilterOperator.In as not getting how to pass multiple comma seperated values to it. Below is my code:
 var calendarPara = new ReportParameter(FacilityScheduleParameter.Calendar, ReportParameterType.String, null);
            calendarPara.Visible = true;
            calendarPara.AvailableValues.DataSource = calendarList;
            calendarPara.AvailableValues.DisplayMember = "=Fields.CalendarName";
            calendarPara.AvailableValues.ValueMember = "=Fields.ID";
            //calendarPara.AvailableValues.Filters.Add("=Fields.BookingType=Parameters.Event OR Parameters.Event='" + GetDataSourceSql.AllValue + "' OR Fields.BookingType='" + GetDataSourceSql.AllValue + "'",
            //            Telerik.Reporting.FilterOperator.Equal, "=True");

            calendarPara.AvailableValues.Filters.Add("=Fields.Category", Telerik.Reporting.FilterOperator.In, " ='Acat','11111','Xyz' ");


Filter is not working, i am not getting correct syntax.
Please help as stuck in it and have very important delivery to wind up

Hello,

Is it possible to suppress a section so that datasources bound only to element(s) inside the section will not be loaded? Crystal Reports has this feature and it is very handy for debugging reports with datasources that take some time to load. 

 

Best regards,

Magnus

Hello,

Could someone provide me steps to bind a data set from Main Report Datasource to a SubReport Datasource?

I'm using 6.1.12.823 version of telerik reporting integrated with Visual Studio.

Best Regards,

I've read the article at Telerik Blog regarding using a function to UPPER any text for a filter.  My Filter does work when the case is correct, ie. 'Framework' but 'framework' does not.  I'm doing this in code and i'm using the StringToUpper() function from the above blog.  When I apply, no records are found at all.

My code looks like this.

Telerik.Reporting.Filter newfilter = new Telerik.Reporting.Filter();
newfilter.Expression = StringToUpper("=Fields.AgreementName");
newfilter.Operator = Telerik.Reporting.FilterOperator.Like;
newfilter.Value = "%" + filter.ToString()) + "%";
table1.Filters.Add(newfilter);

The resulting Expression looks like this
{=FIELDS.AGREEMENTNAME Like %FRAMEWORK%}

This returns 0records....Ideas?

Hi everyone

We are building a WindowsForms application and we would like to include a Report Designer control. Basically give the user the ability to draw up basic reports themselves.

Is there a Telerik Control that can replicate the reporting designer as a windows forms control?

Any other 3rd party designers you know?

Thank you.
