ReportViewer1.Report.DataSource

[Frédéric Martin]

Hi everyone,

I'm using MS Enterprise Library 4.1 DAAB and I'm trying to set the DataSource for my Report during Runtime in my WebApp.

I had found some old articles referencing

ReportViewer1.Report.DataSource = ...

However this does not seem to work with the latest release of Telerik Reports Q2 2009

Am I missing a reference or are there code examples of setting the DataSource during Runtime for a ReportViewer1.Report in my WebForm ?

Many thanks

Hello Frédéric,

In Q1 2009 we introduced 2 breaking changes, due to which you would have to either instantiate the report first and use it directly or cast the object returned by the ReportViewer.Report property to Telerik.Reporting.Report type:

Telerik.Reporting.Report report = (Telerik.Reporting.Report)this.reportViewer1.Report; 
report.DataSource = ds;

More info is provided in this KB article: ReportViewer.Report property is now of type Telerik.Reporting.IReportDocument.

Best wishes,
Steve

Excellent, thank you for the answer, how would I now attach during RunTime a DataSource to a Charting Control or Table placed in a Report, again from a WebForm that contains a ReportViewer in my WebForm.aspx page.

Thanks
