Text boxes - formatting numeric and date expressions

This is a simple but frustrating mistake. Two of my colleagues have hit it recently, so I am writing up the solution. Situation: A user creates an expression in a text box for a numeric or date value. The expression syntax is correct. The user selects an appropriate format from the Format drop-downs...

Page Numbers with variables as anchors - not quite right

If I have different page definitions and hard-code the anchors for each page definition, the resulting Table of Contents is fine. I've tried extending that logic to a single page report definition with "new page before" each primary group heading; and with setting the anchor to the current...

Re: Workdays Calculation - omit Saturday, Sunday

Thank you, HighAley. Unfortunately, we do not have the means to create functions in our end-user interface. Instead, I modified some C# scripting I found from various sources and added that as a BeforePrint event to populate a variable with the BusinessDays figure. That's not user-friendly but it se...

Workdays Calculation - omit Saturday, Sunday

Can anyone recommend a method to calculate, not just a Datediff value, but a difference between two dates that considers only Monday through Friday (omitting Saturday and Sunday)? Any direction would be much appreciated.

Re: Variable as parameter - Descending order?

Thank you. In the Stimulsoft demo environment (https://designer.stimulsoft.com/), where can I go to set the ParametersPanelSortDataItems value? (In any event, showing the parameters in non-sorted order isn't the fix or work-around that would meet our business need. We want to see either the first so...

Re: Variable as parameter - Descending order?

I have also created this report in your https://designer.stimulsoft.com/ environment and saved it to the cloud there, but I'm not able to save that version to my desktop to forward it. Note that, without the filter, ALFKI appears first in the report because of the sort in the GroupHeader. http://www...

Storage and persistence of changes to design interface

The design interface has some settings that can be adjusted by the user: Show/Hide Headings and Grid, Setup Toolbox, and, under Options, Grid setup controls. Can you clarify at what level these are applied, how long they persist , and if they are automatically reset? Example. I made some setting cha...
