Type 'Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.StyleRule' is not defined.

[Matt]

I've just installed the Telerik Reporting Demo.
I'm getting multiple errors in Report1.Designer.vb.
This happens right after I have created a report using the Wizard.

Type 'Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.StyleRule' is not defined.
Type 'Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.Textbox' is not defined.
etc..

Is my installation screwed up?

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Hi Matt,

Most likely, the issue you are faced with occur due to incorrect Telerik Reporting assemblies referenced.
Could you please confirm that in your project you have the correct Telerik Reporting assemblies referenced?

- Telerik.Reporting.dll, v 1.5.1.0
- Telerik.Reporting.Processing.dll, v 1.5.1.0.

For more information regarding the installation of Telerik Reporting please refer to this help topic. In case you have upgraded from a previous version you may find this KB article helpful.

I hope this information helps.

Greetings,

I figured it out.

This was NOT an installation or version problem.

The problem was a Namespace problem.

I had created a project named IA.Telerik.ReportLibrary and added a Telerik Report to the project called Report1.vb.

The Telerik Namespace in my project IA.Telerik.ReportLibrary was conflicting with the actual Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.StyleRule Namespace.

I created a new project named IA.ReportLibrary that did not have the work Telerik in the namespace and that solved the problem.
