Simulation click on toolbar button

[Yoni Dagan]

In using your product telerik

:ReportViewer we have encountered a problem, we would appreciate your help.  We have a page in which we use the ReportViewer which we keep invisible.  On this page we have a button to print reports, what we'd like is that clicking this button would do the same as if clicking the print button on your built-in toolbar.  How is this done?  Thank you for your help

Hi, Steve!

I depend  on link button OnClientScript attribute  as call java function and below You can see the function:

function

PrintReport()

{

var objReport = document.getElementById('ReportScoringList');

if(objReport)

{

objReport.Print();

}

}

Why objReport not including Print() method.

Why when i put the reporting control at my web page, i can't see the buttons of this control (except navigation button)? maybe i need change somewhat in web.config

Hi Sergey,

Up to your questions:

• in order to get the client object of the ReportViewer, you need to get reference to it like this:
  <%=ReportViewer1.ClientID %>.Print();    Using document.getElementById() means you will get the DOM element only, which of course does not have Print() method exposed.
• do you have ShowPrintButton and ShowExportGroup properties set to "true"? This is the default behavior of the ReportViewer, so please check if you do not set them to false based on some condition in your code.

Hope these help.
Kind regards,

Thanks for the answer, but <%=ReportViewer1.ClientID %>.Print();
not working!

Hello Sergey,

I am not having any problems with this functionality. Find attached a sample web application using the before mentioned approach. I instantiate an instance of the ProductLineSales report from the online examples and display it in the report. Above the report there is a "Print Report" button, which calls <%=ReportViewer1.ClientID %>.Print(); accordingly.

Best wishes,
