Let me try to explain:

I have a main report , let say: "Main sales report" -this report recieve a parameter that is the seller's name as a string- and I also have (inside de main report) a subreport with some totals and also with the parameter.field with the "name of the seller" so he can sign the report .

My problema is this: when the main report does not have data also the subreport does NOT display anything (of course the subreport query does not has data also) but at least I need the name of the seller (that I'm passing as parameter) displayed in the subreport -so the seller could "sign" the report (even when the report is empty).

Any help will be highly appreciated

Hi,

 I'm setting the connection string dynamically through the Resolve method, but I also need to access the actual report parameter values.  It seems that this is impossible as the way to do it is through the NeedDataSource handler, but that is not called as the data source has already been set by the code that sets up the connection string.  Is there a way to do this?

Hi there,

The demo's on this page: http://demos.telerik.com/reporting/population-density/html5demo.aspx don't work with Internet Explorer and Firefox. Is this a general problem in the newest version or is it a demo problem?

Thanks.

I'm currently trying to convert some reporting services .rdl's to an equivalent telerik one and have come across a key difference that looks like it should be a common problem but a search across the forum turned up nothing:

In my original report, I have 2 datasources, A and B. Within one field, its value is SUM(A.Fixed) + SUM(B.Cost) however I cannot see how to recreate this within report designer as you can only have one connected datasource to reference at a time.

Hello,

here are two views from the same report: one with the WPF print preview and one from the PDF generated from the same report.

As you can see, the PDF is correct: it has the winning teams marked in bold, but the print preview doesn't show the bold.

Hello to all!

We have a requirement to create a system which will permit users to dynamically create "data extracts" for export via XLS format.

Imagine the following:

• A "known" datasource which includes a list of available fields. The user would select which fields they want in the extract and then move around the selected fields to create a custom layout/ordering.
• I'll know in advance the underlying datatype, i.e., string, integer, currency, etc., and default length of the fields.
• Once the "Go" button is clicked, I could create a "simple" report programmatically by following the steps listed here: http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/programmatic-control-of-reports.html and then persist the resulting Xml.
• ​Once I had the custom report "structure" serialized to Xml, I'd then initiate a call to a Custom Report Resolver as described here: http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/telerik-reporting-rest-custom-report-resolver.html.

While the above seems feasible, I'm wondering if I'm over complicating things and there is a far easier way.

Also, as I using the "Telerik Reporting Services Web API" functionality, I'm curious what is the best approach for using both the default and a custom resolver.

​Thanks.

Sam.

Hello,

 I have a field which have to be processed before being display, One way is to do it at backend in database while getting data. But that will be very difficult. Is it possible that i can process a field value in an expression or calculated field where i could use loop and other features of .net?

Hi,

I have a couple of questions on the invoice demo example and it would be great if somebody could answer. I have to do a sales order report which has a very similar structure with sales order items, sub report, etc.

The relevant video can be found here: http://demos.telerik.com/reporting/invoice-report/video.aspx

-In the video, some fields are added to the top section (barcode, order number, etc.) How are these fields populated - I understood that data could only be populated from the detail section. I'm doing something similar at the moment and I like the idea of putting stuff in the header but the fields in the header won't populate with any data - only the fields in the detail section.

-What is the purpose of the small panel he puts in the bottom of that header at the 36 second mark.

-Why the large panel in the detail section?

 If anybody could shed some light on these it would really help my understanding of what's going on.

Thanks,
Tom.
