Just  started using Telerik reporting and noticed an odd behavior that seems specific to the report created in the Visual Studio 2013 WYSIWIG and does not occur when using a report generated in the Standing alone report designer.  I am working with the version from Q2 2014.

I first build this simple report in the stand alone report designer.  Then duplicated it using the designer and class use in the VS 2013.  This is a banded report and has 3 groups, 2 of which are bound to something and one being used to display the row headings on every page.  The first two groups have the group footer set to PageBreak After.

In my testing my data source was a stored procedure that returned data that should result in 2 pages.  In the stand alone version of the report both the preview of the report as well as when creating a pdf directly from code using the ReportProcessor.RenderReport method.  In the VS2013 WYSIWIG tool when I rebuilt the report and bound it to the stored procedure it was resulting in 4 pages.  Where page one at the data that matched the stand alone report.  Page 2 had the data from the page header, page footer and just the group1 footer, then page 3 had the same data as page 2 of the stand alone report.  And page 4 again had the page header, page footer and just the group 1 footer.

In the VS2013 WYSIWIG  this problem was fixed by setting the group footers to not be visible.  Which in this simple instance is fine, but I can see future needs that this will not  work for.  Is this a known issue?

I need to catch the report viewer event when a user click on export or printing.
I have not found any event to achieve the above in the report viewer for asp.net while I have seen that the same exist for the winform report viewer.
Is there any alternative to get the export/print event to fire some code rather than having to use a button outside the control and limit the feature of the report viewer?

Thanks,
Felice

I have a report with 18 rows. However, when I export it to Excel it generates 84 rows.  What's going on here?

Hello everyone,
I have been trying to find an easier way to update data in a table cell dynamically for the last hour.
Basically, i have a table that summarizes the activity of a sales person, tracking how many emails or calls he's been making. What i have been doing is, i have each cell call a C# function, and the C# function would directly make connection to the database to grab the number of calls, emails or appointment he's been making. The problem with this is if i have about 20 cells, this approach would be hugely insufficient due to each cell making a connection to one database table at the same time. So my question is, Is there a better way to do this? Please refer to the attached image. Thank you!

Hi~

i have a webpage,and one of the page put a reportviewer in it.

then , i read this http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/reporting/telerik-reporting/set-default-export-from-exportgroup.aspx

this let my viewer can only export one file type ,"PDF"

but, my customer said,if we can only export PDF File.

why should we still have to select a type then export.

is anyway to set the default export type to some type on PageLoad even or ReportViewer's properties? (e.g PDF or XPS )

Thanks.

Hello, 

We are binding a Table DataSource to a SQL Sproc that is taking advantage of GROUPING SETS where the last row in the result set that has the aggregation already applied to the data based on the DB design requirements. 

What is the best way to tell the Table that the data set has this special last row so we can: 

1) format the row in a special way (bold, font size, and such)
2) Set a couple cells to a special text value ("Total", "Summary") 

Do we just use Conditional Formatting rules on each cell the last row? Or is there a better way to do this?

Thank you.

We created a custom report designer for our web application.  We use Telerik's report engine to render the reports.  It is possible for a user to create a report that will take nearly forever to complete.  When this happens, it locks resources on the server, slowing the application for other users.

We want to set a timeout on the Telerik report renderer, but cannot find that property.  Is there a way to set the timeout for the report engine?

HI,

I am new to using Telerik Reporting but I am looking to implement it in an ASP.NET website. I am looking to do something like this demo

ASP.NET Demo

My problem is that I cannot figure out how to properly set up the report viewer on my webpage to supply parameters to my report, which is in a separate project. And if there is any initialization in the report class to do? I have downloaded the reporting demo's but no examples of passing parameters are included.  I have searched the forums but i cannot find any clear tutorials/solutions

I am using;
 
Telerik UI  ver.  2014.1.403.45
Telerik Reporting Q2 2014 ver. 8.1.14.618

Your help would be much appreciated.
