type initializer problem

[Wilfrid BILLIOUW]

Hi,

I would like to try the fantastic Reporting Control in a winform application.
Unfortunately I got an error on the first line of my application... Look at the code below.

The error is
Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation
The type initializer of 'MyObj.OrdersData' threw an exception

In fact the OrdersData could not find (I think) the connection string in my app.config

What could I do ?

Partial

Public Class Report1
Inherits Telerik.Reporting.Report
Public Sub New()
    InitializeComponent()
    Dim Orders As MyObj.OrdersCollection = MyObj.OrdersFacade.GetAll
      ' me.datasource = Orders
End Sub
Public Sub main()
End Sub
End Class

Hi Wilfrid BILLIOUW,

That's correct. The error message sounds like there is a problem with the MyObj.OrdersData constructor and most possible an exception is being thrown inside it. To find out the actual problem you may surround the problematic code with Try-Catch and use the debugger to diagnostic the problem source and reason.

Kind regards,
