SQL Reporting :: Confused About Rdlc Report & Data Sources In Web App Project?
Feb 16, 2011
'm learning about reporting in VS2008 (no we haven't moved to 2010 yet!), and I like the idea of rdlc files because it seems you can deploy the report as part of a web app rather than mess around deploying it to a report server. Is this correct?We develop tiered apps that use LINQ to SQL, and the .dbml and LINQ queries are in a separate project to the web application. Also, depending on whether we are developing an internet or intranet web app, it will either reference that project directly, or call its methods via a WCF service. However I can't seem to hook up my rdlc to either. From what I've read, this could be because we create "web application" projects and not "web site" projects. So my question is, is it possible to create an rdlc report within a "web application" project and have it use either a business object or a WCF service as its data source?If I try and create a data source in my web app project, it simply creates an XSD, and don't know what to do with this! If I go through the report wizard, all I can do is choose a database data source (i.e. from what's listed in the VS2008 server explorer) - there is no option to choose an "object" or "service" data source, like you can when the rdlc resides in a report project.

I'm designing a layout for a report in VS2008 using SSRS/RDLC format. And every time I setup a part of that report i test it on my workstation to see if everything is ok. But, today, i finished the first page of that report and uploaded it to my hosting server (were it's going to be used), and when i press the button to convert the report to .pdf and download it the layout is completely ruined :-/ When i do the same thing in my workstation every thing 'comes out' beautifully, but up on the server it doesn't .

I am using a reportviewer control to display some key reports on my page. These reports are RDLC reports and some of them have multiple tables in them each being fed by a separate datasource.
There are times when some datasets do not return any values. When this happens these table show up as blank with just the headers in them.
Is there a way to hide a table, when there is no data returned by a Dataset (or the filter) on the table?
At the least, can a message "No Rows Returned be Displayed" when there is no data?

I want to know how to open an RDLC Report in a pop up. I have taken an asp.net web application. I have added an rdlc and created a dataset and a report with the data from datasaet. In the web form I have taken a report viewer control and have binded the report. Now i have a view report button. When I click on viewReport button, the report should open as a popup. if there are any parameters like drop downs in the main page these also should be passed to the popup.

I am working with rdlc reports. I have an asp.net web form where i'll select a parameter (substance name)from a dropdown. When I click on view reports button, the report should open in a pop up. I am passing the ID(substance ID) from dropdown in query string to the popup page.
When I click on view reports button, the report should open in a pop up. For this I have taken report viewer control in another aspx page. The code in the aspx.cs page which contains the report viewer control is as follows :
I have taken two rdlc reports. The main report has the parameter SubstanceID. The child report has parameter substance name.When I click on one particular textbox in main report it should navigate to another report. So, in textbox properties of main report in Navigation tab,I am giving "jump to report"--child report name and parameters "@SubstanceName" and its Parametervalue as :
=Fields!SubstanceName.Value.
When I work out this report in server side reporting(ReportServerProject) it works as expected.But in coding it throws an error :
An error occurred during local report processing.
An attempt was made to set a report parameter '@SubstanceName' that is not defined in this report.
I have taken a report viewer and two ObjectDataSources....one for parent report and other for child report.
The code for the page that contains report viewer is as follows:
In page Load : Binding Parent report
[code]....

I have multiple reports that take the same parameters. Need to create a master report with all the reports merged together. I dont want to copy paste the rdlc files into one large file. found a control by Telerik called ReportBook but it costs money!! [URL] anyone knows something similar? or am i missing something very obvious? using visual studio 2005... will subreports solve my problem? not sure how these work. so say i have a report that lists employers and i create a subreport that lists all employees for a particular empoyer. is it then possible on one rdlc to have the list of employers and a bunch of subreports for each employer's employees?

I hope that I am posting this in the correct forum and its not a duplicate...
I have the following code that from a click of a button will create a PDF of a .rdlc report. It works great but I have to have a reportviewer setup on the page in order for it to work.
Is there anyway via VB code to PDF the report without having to incorporate a reportviewer on the screen? What happens if I have a report with more than 1 tableadapter configured in it?
Also, how can the code be set to Print the report without a reportviewer?

I have a report that is supposed to have a check box selected if the Lead value is -1. Else it is supposed to be unchecked. I already know that rdlc's do not have check boxes. Now I have the two check box images in a ftp directory, one image looks selected and the other looks unselected. I have the problem in my if statement when I render the report it gives me the error of No Colons. But I need colons 'ftp://' in my IIF Statement.

I am using rdlc file to design the report and report viewer to show it. My page size is 8.5in(Width) x 4in(Height). I set the report size same in RDLC. I am using dot matrix printer to print the report.
The problem is,when i am printing LANDSCAPE,it is printing fonts correctly (LANDSCAPE is not what i want, i just tested) but when i changed to PORTRAIT, it is printing within the specified page size but fonts are very very small.
settings i have made:set the page size in RDLC and specified the user defined page size (i.e 8.5in x 4in) in printer properties.
What is causing the problem and where else can i change the settings? . . is it the printer or RDLC or shud i do anythng in codebehind??...
I have been struggling with this for past two weeks. please suggest me anything that strikes your mind. I ll just give it a try. please remember my printer is dot matrix printer(Dunno if it matters or not)

I'm having a very difficult time figuring out how to pass in a parameter to my rdlc report.
1) On the report, I went into Report > Report Parameters and added a parameter.
2) I tried writing some code (vb) on the page_load event to pass information to this parameter. I have the following:
[Code]....
When I run the report, I receive the following error: "The 'MuniID' parameter is missing a value"
Am I on the right track? give me some direction on what else needs to be done?

Have an asp.net app with a local rdlc report based off an xsd dataset. Was working fine, but i needed to add another field, so I added it to the dataset through the designer (right click, add column) and then added the field to the rdlc report.
My problem is it won't compile - keep getting the error:
The Value expression for the textbox 'Description' refers to the field 'ShortDesc'. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
I've cleared the cache, deleted temporary internet files without luck.
So how do i get the new field to show up for the report?

I have designed a report in RDLC. I am using Visual Studio 2008 and C#. Below is my code to export the report in excel. It always export the report to xls format which is Excel 2003. Excel 2003 has limited rows upto 65000. When i get rows more than 65000 for example 90000 then the export fails. Excel 2007 has power to handle more than 1000000 rows. I want to export the RDLC report to Excel 2007 to overcome the issue. how by modifying the following code i can export the report to Excel 2007.
byte[] bytes = null;
bytes = viewer.LocalReport.Render("Excel", null, out mimeType, out encoding, out extension, out streamIds, out warnings);
Response.Buffer = true;
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = mimeType;
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=Rendered Services." + extension);
Response.BinaryWrite(bytes);
Response.Flush();
