I have both the Q1 and Q2 version of the report designer and I noticed a change that you guys made that I'm curious about. In the Q1 version, while you're going through the new report wizard there is an option to change the page settings, which allows you to change the page from portrait to landscape. In the Q2 version however, this option seems to have been removed, and there isn't a great way to change a report that has 'Adjust report items to fit available space' enabled to then take up the new space that switching it to landscape provides. I'd really like to see this feature added back in as it made the process much more simple before to take up all available space.

If however you guys aren't going to put that back in, I'd like to know what the simplest way of doing it after the report wizard. I know how to switch it to landscape in the properties, and I know about the increase horizontal spacing button that sometimes can make it easier to take up the aditional space, but it doesn't always work quite right and fixing each box to take up +/- .1 in is really annoying.

Hi

I'm using Visual Studio 2012 and Telerik Reporting Q1 - 2013. I'm using this version because of the support for framework 3.5

Anyway, I created a class library, I added a Telerik report, I added a datasource, I created a table with a couple of columns. Everything worked just fine.
Later, when I added more columns, they are not shown in the preview, or HTMl preview. If I publish the report , they are shown on the production server.

If I restart the computer, the columns are shown in the preview, but if I add new columns, they are not shown in preview. Only if I restart the computer.
It seems there is a cache somewhere .

How can I fix this problem ?

Regards
Hans

I'm adding columns to a report dynamically. When one of the textboxes wraps its text, the other textboxes on the same row are not resizing to match the height. How do I fix this?

Hello,
I have a table in a report where the text of the header of one column must contain an expression. The problem is that the DataSource of the table is set to the table data. So how can I accomplish this?

Detailed information:
1. The table contains a ranking.
2. The table contains one column with amounts (earnings for the team).
3. The currency of the amounts is set at a higher level (tournament). It depends on the place where the tournament is played.
4. I would like the header to display Prize (EUR) or Prize (USD)
Currently this is done by code, but I would like to know if it's possible to do it with an expression.

I support a system that uses a VB.NET Reporting client that attaches to an Oracle 11g database running on a Linux server.  We would like to use the standalone Report Designer as a supplement to our canned reports so that 'Power Users' can query the database to get the data they are after.

All of the support documentation on connection strings refers to SQL server running locally.  None of the documentation mentions Oracle.  I am wondering if the standalone Report Designer can attach to an Oracle database on a Linux server if given the correct connection details.

If so, could you please provide a sample connection string for connecting to Oracle databases.

Thanks in advance.

So my client uses a citrix VDI to run a silverlight application and it calls a telerik silverlight report viewer.
They say their 20GB write cache disk runs out of memory very quickly and I think that the report viewer is writing to it.  I don't see the memory of the app go up when I load a large report, so I guess it's sticking it there.

And this is just a guess.

For Silverlight how would I change the cache type, I see in the docs, you mention changing the config in a web.config file, but for silverlight would you set the CacheMode property?  Or can you?

Hi, can some-one please help me with the following issue re passing parameters.

I have created a new trivial report and setup two report parameters

1) StartDate (Type DateTime)
2) EndDate (Type DateTime)

What I would like to be able to do is set the report parameters from inside the codebehind of the webpage which will display the report.

e.g.

The report object is in a seperate class library called ProductOrders

 public partial class ProductOrders : Telerik.Reporting.Report
    {
            
        public ProductOrders()
        {                   
             try
            {
                this.dsAllOrdersTableAdapter1.Fill(this.dsAllOrders.dsAllOrdersTable);
            }
            catch (System.Exception ex)
            {
                // An error has occurred while filling the data set. Please check the exception for more information.
                System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
            }
        }

}       


In another .NET website project I have a report viewer called ReportViewer1 and I have the following code

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{                
    // New instance of the ProductOrders report
       ProductOrders _report = new ProductOrders();

    
    // Set the report parameters here
       _report.ReportParameters["StartDate"].Value = Convert.ToDateTime("01-jun-2009");
       _report.ReportParameters["EndDate"].Value = Convert.ToDateTime("30-jun-2009");
                   
    // associate the report with report viewer
       ReportViewer1.Report = _report;
}

The problem that I am having is that the report paramaters are *always null* when I set them from the website page.
If I place them inside the constructor of the ProductOrders they work fine.
I do not want to pass through this information in the QueryString but would prefer to pass them through programatically. Again the above is a trivial example :)

Thanks in advance

I'm trying to group my items together for a report. It's working to an extent. However, what I'm getting and what I'm expecting are different. I'm posting pictures of each instance. I'm new to the reporting, so I'm just 100 kinds of confused. any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
