Hi

I am wanting to do something like the Product Catalog example where I have a long list of the same "report" that has different data in it.  Unfortunately, my data is generated dynamically at runtime and I cannot tie it to a sql table.  I have tried adding all my reports which I generate into a report book, but it creates a page break after each report and I don't want that but otherwise the functionality is what I want.  Is there a way to add multiple subreports dynamically?  I have also seen the example here: http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/reporting/telerik-reporting/113406-sub-reports.aspx but my data will also not always be the same size so it would be difficult to specify size and location.

I have a project using Telerik Reporting 2013 Q2.  All was going well until I attempted to export my report to an external file (I had been testing using a Telerik Report Viewer).  when I export my report I get multiple blank pages interspersed in the report.  I have looked at the post http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/reporting/general/problem-telerik-reporting-renders-blank-pages.aspx but that is not my problem.  Here is a code sample of my code:

 Dim rg As New MainReport

            rg.txtReportName.Value = "Contractor One"
            rg.txtRunDate.Value = Now.Date.ToShortDateString

            rg.ReportGuid = xxxxxx
          
            rg.GenerateReport()

            Dim rs As New Telerik.Reporting.InstanceReportSource
            rs.ReportDocument = rg

            Dim tf As New testform
            tf.ReportViewer1.ReportSource = rs
            tf.ReportViewer1.RefreshReport()
            tf.ShowDialog()

            Dim processor As New Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor
            Dim deviceInfo As New Hashtable
         
            Dim rr As Telerik.Reporting.Processing.RenderingResult

            rr = processor.RenderReport("PDF", rs, deviceInfo)

            System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes("d:\temp\pdfexp.pdf", rr.DocumentBytes)

The report displays fine in the Report Viewer but when it gets exported, blank pages appear randomly.

Let's say that I have a crosstab report and the # of columns will exceed the width of the page.  If I have columns A,B,C,D,E and only  three columns, and three rows print on a page I get a print out like this (for invoices 1-6):

Page 1

Invoice # |   A   |   B   |   C
---------------------------------------
1
2
3

Page 2
Invoice # |   D   |   E
---------------------------------------
1
2
3

Page 3
Invoice # |   A   |   B   |   C
---------------------------------------
4
5
6

Page 4
Invoice # |  D   |  E   
---------------------------------------
4
5
6


What can I do to so that the report will display information that looks like this:
Page 1

Invoice # |   A   |   B   |   C
---------------------------------------
1
2
3

Page 2
Invoice # |   A   |   B   | C
---------------------------------------
4
5
6

Page 3
Invoice # |   D   | E   
---------------------------------------
1
2
3

Page 4
Invoice # |  D   |  E   
---------------------------------------
4
5
6



I hope that this example is clear, please let me know how I can clarify my request.  

Can I get some help with this dilemma?

I tried to create a new Q2 2013 report into an existing project only to see this error:

"Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Reporting, Version=4.2.10.1110, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a9d7983dfcc261be' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."

Prior to adding this new item I had deleted the reference to Telerik.Reporting from my project, and then let VS2010 add the appropriate reference. The version is 7.1.13.802; the runtime version is v4.0.30319.

All of my projects in this solution are configured to use .net 4.0.

I have tried to use the Reporting --> Upgrade Wizard, which tells me the upgrade was successful. I have cleaned and rebuilt the project after running the wizard. I have restarted Visual Studio, and the workstation (running Win7 Pro x64).

All of the other Telerik controls work fine in the project and solution.

I have a reportbook containing 150+ reports.  I'm looking for a way to add in a blank page on reports with an odd number of pages so that a report does not start on the back of a previous report when printing duplex.

Thanks,

I have built a generalized report viewer page, with up to 50 potential reports to select from, depending on the context.

I realize that each report is a "class" and therefore you cannot just treat it like you would assign a value to a parameter.

But I'm wondering if there is a way to replace this select and the hard-coding of the report classes, into something more dynamic.

I've tried to move the SQL setup outside the case logic, reducing the repeated lines by half, but the report object loses scope outside the case statement, and the compiler balks.

I've seen another thread that does something similar with C, but I don't know enough to translate it into VB. (VS2010)

Hello all,

I am trying to put a table in my detail section that would have a separate data source. I would like to know if it is possible to filter the records in the table by a unique set of keys from the Fields in my detail section (which has a separate data source). If this is possible I would appreciate any advice on how this would be done.

Thanks

Hello Telerik,
I am working with Telerik Reporting Q1 2013 in VS 2012.
The last year I successfully build a lot of reports (free format , tables, crosstables, etc.) but now I am very disappointed and desperate in creating reports with some nice charts. The requirement is to build a chart like figure 1 (see attachment). I was not lucky either using Charts nor Graphs.
I followed the instructions of the tutorial "Product Line Sales Video" which really is not very helpful, because it takes a lot of time in styling any report headers and fading out when details of the charts are to be set.
Here some detail questions:
1. What is better to use Charts or Graphs?
2. Why do I get this error in the Chart: the type of column with Name ANZ_MONTAGEN is not numeric (this field is numeric!)
3. in the Chart: how can I show the countries in the legend instead of "Series 1" ?
4. how can the legend be sorted by top 10 amount desc?
5. how can the pie label be shown in percentage?
6. how can I show the top 10 amount and additionally other amounts (the rest)?
7. is it possible to build charts or graphs in 3D?

It would be great to get some help.
Thanks
Irmgard

I am quite new to the entity frame work my context has created the following for me  and i am trying to retrieve the values from the following to tables as well AppraisalReadiness  and AppraisalTalentRating which are both lookup tables with the descriptions in them and a code my question is using the query below how to add the reference in for the above to table but still having it return a list.

   public List<appraisal> GetAppraisal(int employeeId)
        {
            List<appraisal> Appraisals = new List<appraisal>();

            try
            {

                Appraisals = pamsEntities.appraisals.Where(a => a.emp_no == employeeId).ToList();
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                throw new EntityContextException("GetAppraisal failed.", ex);
            }


            return Appraisals;
        }
