Hi,

is there any way to conver from Microsoft reporting (rdlc file) to Telerik Reports.

On one of your threads there was a mention that it was happening in Q2007 release?

Hello,

I may be missing something obvious here, but I've just upgraded to Telerik Reporting Q1 2009 and I'm trying to make effective use of tables. On one particular report, I've replaced an existing subreport with a table, and I'm assigning the table's datasource during the databound event of the report's detail section. I do this because the master report is populated by a generic list (List<T>) of user objects, while I need the table to reflect each user's phone numbers (which is another generic list of phone number objects contained within each user object).

The report seems to display ok, but when I export in CSV format, the data from the table is missing.

Do I need to assign the table datasource differently, perhaps?

Hi,

I'm a bit lost with this problem..
I need to represent in the same chart, values from different datasources. (i.e. each serie of chart should map one column of each datasource)

I need this because I'm receiving my data trough webservices and I can't manage or change the source(sql)..

Regards,
Gonçalo

I have  a need to display dynamic items on X axis i.e form one item to n number of items (may go to 100 or more)


Y-Axis has a maximum value of 100 %

There can be more then one series on X-axis, maximum can go up to 5.

Problem I am facing is width of the bar is getting very big on x-axis if there are fewer items,
I have tried BarWidthPercentage it works, but not helpful for dynamic adjustments.

Need help to fit in my dynamic series and dynamic items on x-axis and the chart should look consistent.

I have used scrolling and X Scale property  also, as  I need the scrolling functionality.

Attached is the image for bad chart i am getting, there are more then 25 items and I have used scrolling,
the width of BAR is very large, the number of items in scroll is very less as only 10 items are viewable after
scrolling....


Kindly help in getting a good looking chart with  lot of items and up-to 5 series dynamically, where all the calculation
is done on the rutime for width and formatting.

I have inserted a reportviewer on my page and everything works fine except of course when a report returns hundreds or thousands of results then the report takes a long time to render if not outright crashes the browser.

I cannot find anything that mentions how to enable paging on a reportviewer, I have found help on setting the numbering style but that does me little good if I can t set a page size like on a RadGrid.

Can someone please point me in the right direction to figure out how to get the viewer to page?

Any help is appreciated.
James

Edit:
I should add that I am not using a static data source, I use the NeedDataSource event and just bind an empty table to a DataTable.

I am looking for a reporting tool that enables me to put a textbox in the column heading and can be rotated 15 degree such that on exporting to PDF, it shows the heading in slant format while the row values are displayed horizontally.

Please advice whether Telerik Reporting Production allows me to achieve the above objective.

Hi,

I have report that contains a sub-report. The sub-report itself contains a sub-report. My goal is to get that sub-report within the sub-report of my main report so I can populate it's data. So I have the following:

* master report
     * a sub-report inside the master report
         * a sub-report inside the sub-report  mentioned above

Take note that I am populating data using an objectsource. Now, I have the following code:
var mainReport = new TheReport();
 
// this works fine
var detail = ((mainReport.Items[0] as Telerik.Reporting.DetailSection)
                    .Items["subReport"] as Telerik.Reporting.SubReport);
 
// this one does not work
var innerDetail = ((detail.Items[0] as Telerik.Reporting.DetailSection)
                    .Items["innerSubReport"] as Telerik.Reporting.SubReport);

"detail.Items" does not contain any element. I can also confirm that just by looking into the mainReport.Items collection. Using VS' watch window I manually navigate through the mainReport.Items collection, located the details section and investigated its own Items collection. The items collection is really empty for the details section. 

How can I get the inner sub-report so I can manipulate it?

Hi,

I'm using a drill down report. This report navigates to another report which is the detail one. I'm using objectdatasource for getting the data. I'm having problem in passing the parameters to the navigated report. I have added parameters in the Main report.

For Ex:
1) In the Main Report, it gives the list of "Names", which has an Action set to navigate to report on click
2) In the detail one we need to get data based on the "Name" field. I have added the Name parameter in the report. I'm unable to get the "Name" on click.

Please let me know if you need anything from me.

Thanks

The packaging is ridiculous. I was never able to install and run the reporting examples locally, for various reasons:
a) The projects get installed in Program Files\Telerik, where, of course, they cannot be built unless Visual Studio is launched with elevated privileges. Hint: guys, don't install them there, damnit. Use Public folder instead!
b) AdventureWorks database failed to install with error code like -250239847234 or something. "Unknown error". And it rolled back the ENTIRE installation! Huh?!? Thrice?
c) Eventually I got it installed, after I had to give it sa password and everything, and guess what: in preview it works, in runtime it doesn't. I am attaching a screenshot.

Now, seriously, guys, it's 4 am in the morning and I've spent way too much time trying to make this work, How hard can it be? It's a connection string, a report and a database.

(Note: the screenshot was taken after previewing the invoice and just clicking run, then select the same report in the demo's main window)

Hello Telerik,

We are in december 2011 and do you have good news about Razor and MVC 3 (or MVC 4)?

I have my full licence and I hope to use it in MVC 3 or, more, MVC 4!

Happy to read good news from you.
