I am new to telerik reporting and would like guidance on where to go to learn steps that are needed to use this fine tool.  i.e. what should go in using clause etc.  Not even sure if this is the correct place to post.

Having previously used ActiveReports, there was a functionality they call "Master Reports" that works as a parent wrapper used by the actual report being designed.  In essence, they basically work in a similar fashion to what a Master Page would be used for in ASP.NET.  I haven't seen this kind of functionality in Telerik Reporting, but it would be nice to have since it allows you to define base templates for your reports rather than having to constantly copy common content sections (i.e. header or footer) or include multiple sub-reports. 

Anyone else?

We have a Telerik report that uses the Silverlight viewer, but when printing a particular landscape report, it prints in portrait orientation. It seems this is a known problem with Silverlight that can be rectified by switching to the Telerik web viewer. 

I'm about to look into this issue and would like to know just how to do that.

Hello all,

I wish to achieve the function of combobox, radiobutton,checkbox through report condition searching , and with self-constituted text. Is there any good examples or suggestions? If we use these self-constituted objects, what do we do to select data by means of reporting parameter to SQL? (how to get these self-constituted object value)

Hi, 
I am getting report with details link. When I click for details and then pressing back to previous button causes generate same report again. For big reports it takes too much time and every time I clicked for details and go back to report causes waiting every time. I want prevent generating same report again and again. Is there any property for this? 

I am using Telerik.Reporting.dll (version 5.1.11.928) and Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.dll (version 5.1.11.928) in Q2 Reporting 2011.

I have searched your forum and I found similar thing with my problem but its different because my project is a desktop application. Here

There are 2 files which describes my problem. Please check step1 and step2.

Best Regards,
Cihad

I've created a report then linked it to an ASP.NET web application. Everything works fine with the viewer and I can view the report with no issue. The only problem is that in both the HTML Preview for my report and when I launch the ASP.NET app in a browser, it creates 295 pages with the same content on each page. I've attached a screen shot with the issue.

I have two tables and three charts and they're duplicated on each page. I applied sorts and filters to the first table which was initially extremely large to condense it. I'm not sure why it is creating all the duplicates. When I export to any file format the duplicates remain. 

Also a small side question, is there a property you can adjust for resizing the report viewer in your browser?

Thanks.

I'm finally tasked with removing all the references to Telerik.ReportViewer.WebForms.ReportViewer.ProgressText, in our markup, that you flagged as obsolete, so long ago.

My problem is that I've not figured out how to use the suggested replacement, Resources.ProcessingReportMessage, from markup. If I set myReportViewer.Resources.ProcessingReportMessage = "My message" in the code-behind, it works fine. But we'd been setting ProgressText in markup, and I'd really prefer to set ProcessingReportMessage in markup, as well. I've just not been able to make it work.

And I've not been able to find an example in the online documentation or the forums.

Any ideas?

I have a sql server 2005 database with a table that stores images in a varbinary field.
These images have different dimensions, it could be 150x150 px or 1024x768 px.
Trying to print a text at the top and then the image below per each record.
Sometimes there are no pictures (null value).
Setting the  picturebox field SIZING property to "AutoSize" gives you a format like seen below, that allows to maximize the paper printout since if there is no image, it will not print as if it was leaving a placeholder (as it does with any other setting), see below and keep reading after where the problem is described.

____________________________

TEXT (rec# 1)
         ----------------------------------
         |   Picture (rec# 1)            |
         |                                         |
         ---------------------------------
TEXT (rec# 2)

TEXT (rec# 3)
          ---------------------------------
         |   Picture  (rec# 3)           |
         |                                         |
         |                                         |
         |                                         |

         |                                         |

          ---------------------------------

 TEXT (rec# 4)
          ---------------------------------
         |   Picture   (rec# 4)         |
          ---------------------------------
(desired format, and partially achieved with Sizing prop set to "AutoSize", the layout repeats along pages depending on the picture size, as long as the width fits in one page, otherwise it will print the remnant of the image in a 2nd page alone)


Now, when the image goes beyond the size that can fit in the width or height of he page, you would get an additional page for whatever did not fit in the original area for the image.
What the "Autosize" is lacking is the ability to automatically resize, but up to a certain point so it does not span to a second page to print what did not fit in the original place but rather fits to the maximum dimension that can be fit in one page.

         -------------------------------


Extremely annoying because you have to end up using a fixed area that is left empty blank when the record does not have an image associated, thus wasting a lot of paper and providing an odd layout.

any plans to resolve this?
