As an avid user of SSRS this seems like it should be something really simple.

From the designer, I was able to create a new SQL datasource and bind a textbox value to a datasource column with zero effort. I cannot seem to get a chart to work correctly, though. I set the datasource of the chart to my SQL data source, and I go into the series editor (or via the chart property, add new series). The "Data bind series elements" section remains grayed out (disabled) and there are no values showing in the dropdown in the series editor. I've read the documentation on the Telerik getting started and the series documentation and it just doesn't seem to be working. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks.

Hello,

How do I add Telerik Reports to SharePoint (WSS 3.0 sp1)?  I currently have several reports already generated in ASP.NET 3.5 projects, referring to a local database, and need to know what the steps are to add them to a sharepoint site.

Thank you,
Chris

Hi, regards from Costa Rica,
We got Reporting Q2 20011. We are developing a track system of Courses and Record of our Diplomas.
Each Diploma has an ID, that identify: student, course, and Instructor.
There´s a table CONTROL DIPLOMA, with Course Data, Diploma ID, State Of Diploma., Student ID.
Also there ´s  a State Catalog, with values : No tPrinted, Printed, RePrinted, Override.

Printing Diplomas, I tried without success, when the user press my custom Print Button, catch the event and SAVE the state of the Diploma in a table CONTROL DIPLOMA. I can´t do it, because, the update code are at Server side, but we get launch Printer Window with javascript code recomended to use Custom Print Button.

Any ideas ?


P.D: Sorry, my english, my maternal language is ESPAÑOL, :-) Pura Vida.

Hi,

I was unable to find this anywhere so I fooled around with it until I figured it out.
I noticed that setting the series text appearance does not seem to work in the Q1-2011 version of reporting. You can set the style and colors all you want but something overrides the style at Runtime.

I got around this by setting the style programmatically at run time in the chart_ItemDataBound event.

Private Sub Chart1_ItemDataBound(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Chart1.ItemDataBound
 
    Chart1.Series.Item(0).Appearance.TextAppearance.TextProperties.Color = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(CType(CType(252, Byte), Integer), CType(CType(186, Byte), Integer), CType(CType(47, Byte), Integer))
    Chart1.Series.Item(0).Appearance.TextAppearance.TextProperties.Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Verdana", 8.25!, CType((System.Drawing.FontStyle.Bold Or System.Drawing.FontStyle.Italic), System.Drawing.FontStyle))
    Chart1.Series.Item(1).Appearance.TextAppearance.TextProperties.Color = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(CType(CType(252, Byte), Integer), CType(CType(186, Byte), Integer), CType(CType(47, Byte), Integer))
    Chart1.Series.Item(1).Appearance.TextAppearance.TextProperties.Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Verdana", 8.25!, CType((System.Drawing.FontStyle.Bold Or System.Drawing.FontStyle.Italic), System.Drawing.FontStyle))
End Sub


The result of which seems to be that it sets the style formatting AFTER any override occurs on the design formatting.

I hope this is helpful to anyone out there having the same problem.

Hello All,

Before I authored my report in report detail container, in that way, you can easily setup the conditional formatting on the detail entire row instead of on every text-box u dragged in. In order to avoid the paging(users prefer scrolling bar), I bind the data source on the table container and de-bind the data source on my report. By doing so, u can stay out of the pagination. However, I found I can not setup the conditional formatting on the table row(for example, I wanna archieve 'if field!isBorder=true then setup the bottom border') any longer.

Anyone has idea on this?

Hi.

I am using the latest reports web viewer to render a gantt chart and the Yaxis is rendering the double value e.g. 41130  rather than a date.

The bound data source is simple -
Title - String
Start - double < created using DateTime.ToOADate()
End - double

I have set the series properties with valueformat and customformat as below.

this.chart1.PlotArea.YAxis.Appearance.ValueFormat = Telerik.Reporting.Charting.Styles.ChartValueFormat.LongDate;

this.chart1.PlotArea.YAxis.Appearance.CustomFormat = "dd-MMM-yy";


The design time view shows the correct layout/format however when i switch to preview it renders the double value.

Any help appreciated. Thanks

.Hi

I have installed the Telerik Q2 2012 on my virtual machine (Windows 8 Consumer Preview , 2GB RAM).Though I can build Telerik Reports in VS 2010, on opening the Report Designer I gte the following error message-'The component 'Telerik.ReportDesigner.Packages.Toolbar2.ToolbarView' does not have  resource identifies by the URI 'Telerik.ReportDesigner.Packages.Toolbar2;component/toolbarview.xaml'.

How can I rectify this problem? My primary OS is a Windows 7 Home Basic with 3GB RAM.

Thanks

Is there a way to force a CRLF in a multiline text box on a report?  I have a textbox with multiple fields, and want to force a CRLF between two of the fields...

The problem is, I've tried different things, including good old vbCRLF, and ancient CHR(13) + CHR(10), however, the report engine doesn't like either one.

Here is an example of where this could be useful:

I have the following fields:

Name
Address Line 1
Address Line 2
City, State Zip
Phone #

If each of the lines were in there own text box, and Address Line 2 was blank, I would have a blank line in the address.  Now, I can do a workaround with a series of IIF's in each of the textboxes from Address Line 2 down, but I'd rather do one large multiline textbox with all the fields in it, forcing CRLF's in the appropriate places, and only one IIF for the Address Line 2.

Part of my problem is I'm spoiled by a "Remove Line if Blank" feature.  And guys, yes, I know the reporting module is in it's infancy, so I realize there is room for improvement.  Consider this a feature request.

Thanks as always!!!

I have an application that integrates the web viewer into an existing web project. This web project is currently running against the .net framework 3.5.
In addition to this I have a separate project that I use for building my reports. I then load the report using the MEF framework (via reflection) when the main web application starts.
In the original version of the web application I used to load a report (source) into the webviewer using the following code:
dim source as new TestReport
me.reportviewer1.Report = Source

Once I'd upgraded I found this no longer worked. I have since modified the code as follows:
dim instance as new telerik.reporting.instancereportsource
instance.reportdocument = source
me.reportviewer1.reportsource = instance

So far so good - only its not. I'm finding that when creating a new instance of the report as shown in the first example the report loads with no issue. Loading the report via MEF as in the second example doesn't work. No data is returned and the report is empty.
I know the same type is being loaded as I can modify the report header and in both examples the header is rendered but the report loaded via MEF is never populated. I can see no errors or reason why data would not be returned. 
Is there any way I can somehow diagnose what the problem is here?
