First off, let me start by saying that I'm not asking this question to strike a competency debate between Microsoft and Telerik versions of the Report Viewer functionality; but moreso to solicit candid opinions and facts so I can make an well-informed decision.

I know that there are a lot of similarities when it comes to the type of content that may be rendered and the methodologies used to acquire the rendered reports, what I am interested in are the most basic differences.

From what I can tell, one of the most obvious reason for choosing Telerik reporting over Microsoft would be the absense of a license to have access to the SSRS development environment in order to create Microsofts proprietary RDL schema based reports to support their ReportViewer control. Presenting the benefit that you can create and implement Telerik reports solely using the Telerik Reporting API in contrast to having need to purchase a Microsoft license.

Adversely, if someone had the requirement to develop a portal based on the existence of an SSRS Report Server where users created and uploaded their on reports then obviously the Telerik Report Viewer would not likely be the way to go under that set of circumstances.

Could anyone provide any other immediate benefits that I may have missed or are there any? I believe the Telerik reporting control is an excellent tool and it looks extremely similar to the MS ReportViewer control, I just need to get the raw basics on where the 2 differ.

Thanks!

Is there potential support for 2D Matrix Barcode in the near future?  Is so, what is the timeline and is it going to be in the 2010 version?

Reports version 5.1.11.713
I have a basic table layout report.  If I run the SQL directly in SQL Server it takes 1 second to return 15,852 rows.  If I attempt to run this via a report it times out.  I have increased the timeout to 120 and it still times out.  Why is this happening when the SQL itself only takes a second?  I understand it will take some additional time to pull all that data back and construct objects in memory but it shouldn't take that long.  I just downloaded a trial version of DataDynamics Reports and the same exact report with that engine loads all 378 pages in under 15 seconds.

Hi guys,

I have a business request of being able to generate reports from images or pdfs and add watermarking or custom texts to the reports that will finally be printable/exportable in pdf on the web.

I was wondering if it's possible to do so and would like some input from the forums on whether the reporting tool is a good solution for such a request. ( This is because I would like to use of the wonderful reporting viewer control for preview/printing/exporting to pdf)

A typical scenario would have probably a list of image files or mutliple pdf files ( with many pages inside) where I would like to add to the report which would definitely have a header/footer custom text and needs to have a watermark imprint on the report itself. The size of the image is not fixed and will need to be resized to fill up 1 typical report page

If its possible to do so, can someone direct me with some form of pseudo code or code samples especially in the part where I iterate through the pages in the pdf to add to the report.

If its not possible to do so, can someone direct me to any good telerik control from the asp.net ajax suite that might be able to perform what I just listed above. - or any other 3rd party tool.

I have been using Telerik reporting for all our business requirements and would prefer to continue doing so and would like some help with how I can include all the pages in the pdfs or a List<image> into the report as well as defining the size of the image to fit nicely in a portrait A4 size when being printed.

Regards

Jonathan

Please help. It says type initializer for system.web.UI.htmltextwriter threw an exception,  I have one group and some calculated values at reporting footer.

I have about 17 reportparameters, and I get this error when trying to preview from the designer as well as from codebehind below. I f I limit the output  records to 10 it renders perfectly, we were using crystal reports for the same report w/o any issues but decided to migrate to telerik reporting.

It is userObjectDataSource (IList<User> GetUsers())  as report DataSource. Also it is a List in details report section and it is an ObjectDataSource  (IList<string> GetPrivileges(int userId)) as DataSource for this List. How can I set UserId from userObjectDataSource  as value for parameter of ObjectDataSource? I tried ObjectDataSource->Parameters->Value-><Expression>->Fields, but  - No Data Source found. It should be one list of privileges for each user. Implementation through SubReport incorrect displayed after export in to PDF or TIFF. Can you help me?
