We are using ATT USB devices to do invoices remotely.  The page loads fine but when data is requested from the drop down lists it hangs frequently.  If I tether a phone and do the same thing, it functions correctly.  Are there any known issues with ATT, ATT Communicator, or specific devices?  Is anyone else accessing Telerik using a wireless device? If you are, what device, service, etc are you using?

I have developed three reports within a class library which I now need to localize.  The localization support in Telerik Reporting is great, by the way.  It's very useful to be able to switch between languages in the designer and update the different languages in situ.

However, I am having a problem with one of my three reports.  When I try to set the 'Localizable' property to 'true' in the designer, I just get an hourglass for about 5 seconds, and then a 'Property value is not valid' error pops up.  Its detail says 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object'.  The report works fine in every other way.

I've rebooted my system and run the Telerik Reports upgrade wizard, but to no avail.  I am using v Q3 2010.  Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what else I can try?

Hi,

I've been testing your latest Telerik Reporting - Silverlight Report Viewer (trial version).

In video - "Using Parameterized Queries in Telerik Reporting with the SqlDataSource Component" - the report viewer creates an input parameters area but I want to build my own input parameters area and passing the input values from silverlight to report is it possible?

Thanks,
Andreia

I'm new to this, so this could be a setup problem or a user problem. I'm trying out my first app with a Telerik report. I want to add the report viewer to my windows form. When I look into the Telerik section in the Toolbox, I see 5 items listed, Pointer, and 4 instances of ReportBook. Where do I find the ReportViewer? An image of my screen is attached below.

I thought maybe it was due to references, so I added all that could make any sense. I tried adding a report to the project and that didn't help.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Bernie

I am setting up a Telerik Reporting Class Library in a WinForms Solution, with Telerik Reporting Q2 2011. Following the Best Practices, I am using a sqlDataSource, and have used the wizard to setup the connection and SQL statements.

The problem is that the report editor has set the connection string in the report designer file like so:

Report1.Designer.cs

It is a String of the Report Project Settings Variable, not a Reference to the Report Project Settings Variable. This works fine for designing the report within the Reports Project, however, a ReportViewer in a Forms Project will produce a run-time error.

Error Output Produced:

• Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Data.SqlDataSourceException: Unable to establish a connection to the database. Please, verify that your connection string is valid. In case you use a named connection string from the application configuration file, make sure the name is correct and the connection string settings are present in the configuration file of your application. ---> System.ArgumentException: Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0.

I have attempted to rectify the error by copying the Connection String Setting from the Report Project into the Forms Project. I assume this doesn't work as the Connection String is trying to reference the Private Connection String in the Report Project.

I now set the Connection String in the Report Constructor to the Settings Value. After this is added the Forms Project displays the report without error.

Report1.cs

 I am unsure why I am required to reference the setting through the "Settings.Default" object, where the designer sets a string that references straight from the "Settings" object. (edit: the report reads the app.config file, it doesn't use the settings object)

Is there a work around so I won't need to set the connection string in the constructor as well as the designer? 

Hi,

I'm investigating the possibility of using Telerik Reporting for a solution I'm developing.

Part of the report (invoice) needs to be re sizable to keep things looking as the client says 'professional' I can do this in one of two ways:
a) Duplicate the report for each font size I want to replicate
b) Alter the font size of specific report areas at runtime based injected parameter (conditional formating) or via the code that launches the report (instantiate a report object and twiddle with it's object model)

Obviously I would like to avoid option a as it generates duplication in the code :(

Is option b possible using either conditional formating or via tweaking of the report object?

Greetings,
   I am trying to display two dates in a single text box, along with other text (e.g., Reporting from: 10/20/2011 11:00 AM to 10/20/2011 12:45 PM), based on fields returned from an SQL query. The date fields are returned as SQL DateTime types. When breaking down the DateTime field for minutes under 10 (using the sub options presented in the Fields display of Edit Expression), I am only getting one digit to display. Is there a way to force that to format to 2 digits, have the leading zero display? If I put just the datetime field in a text box then the Format {0:f} (or other choices) seems to work, but once it's a mixed hard-code text and field value the overall Formatting doesn't work, not recognizing the datetime part vs the rest of the text in the Edit Expression list. [The main purpose in breaking this all up is to avoid the Seconds being displayed.]

What's in my "Edit Expression" window is:
Reporting From: {Fields.StartDate.DayOfWeek} {Fields.StartDate.Month}/{Fields.StartDate.Day}/{Fields.StartDate.Year} {Fields.StartDate.Hour}:{Fields.StartDate.Minute} {Fields.StartDate.Kind} to ...

What I get is:
Reporting from: Thursday 10/11/2011 11:0 Unspecified to ...

Also, the Fields.StartDate.Kind comes back "Unspecified", is there a simple error I'm making there too? Was expecting AM or PM.

Hi,

I have an existing WCF service (not telerik reporting service) and a Silverlight application that references that service.
I need to use this existing service to retrieve reports to the silverlight client application.

I tried checking your demo solution which comes with the installation but it doesn't seem to work.

When I call asynchronously  to the wcf service from the SL application, I need the service to create a report based on an SQL Query it receives as a parameter and the create a report and send it back to the SL application.

How do I do that?

I have a teble which is displaying some kind of master detail.

Each category can have a number of subcategories. When I display the report then the header of it is in on the first page and the detail is on the next page. Is there any way that the groups that have to break on the next page have the header on both pages.

For example
-Group
     Sub 1
     Sub 2
-Group 2
     Sub 3
---------Next Page
-Group 2
     Sub 4

Thanks

here is the code:
