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.

Hello Telerik Team,

I am converting the Crystal reports to telerik reports. In previous crystal reports we had "Supress(No drill down)" option
if we want  to hide some sections based on some conditions. Do we have that kind of option in telerik reports.If so can you quote me an example on how to achieve it.
My requirement is hiding and showing some sections in the telerik report.

Thank you for the support.

Thank you
Smith

I have a report with some event handler like below.
private void groupFooterSection2_ItemDataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Telerik.Reporting.Processing.GroupSection procGroup = sender as Telerik.Reporting.Processing.GroupSection;
 
    DataRowView row = procGroup.DataObject.RawData as DataRowView;
     
    if (row["group1"].ToString() == "")
    { 
        procGroup.Visible = false;   
    }
}
I serialize it into XML file, and then deserialize XML file to report.
The event doesn't work anymore.
Any suggestion?

I have a Silverlight application that uses Telerik reporting. I added the necessary references in my Web app, added a ReportService.svc file and the web.config service model xml. I added the Telerik references in my Silverlight app, and can add a ReportViewer in Visual studio's Designer. However, when I run the application I get an exception reading "The invocation of the constructor on the type 'MyProject.Report' that matches the specified binding constraints threw an exception." I have nothing entered for "ReportServiceURI" or "Report". Not sure what the issue is as it seems to load fine in the design view. Thanks in advance!
