Custom Component to load report.

[Pilgrim]

Good day.

I am trying to create a custom component to render an external report as part of the report the control is in.

What I want is to put the custom report on a databand. Each time the custom control is rendered it actually loads a new report, render that report using parameters it gets from the databand, then replace itself with the output from that external report.

This way I can put a bunch of reports in the toolbox and the end user places them on the report, sets the parameters (or uses a databand) to control how that report is rendered. Then when they preview the report they see the output of other reports as well as that of their own report.

Think of it as a subreport control that gets its page from a different report.

Any ideas how I can do this?

Thank you very much.

On the next week we plan realize similar feature as a standard Stimulsoft functionality, can you wait for that?

Thank you.

Indeed!

That would be awesome.

I am looking for a reporting tool to use in our project and that is the most important requirement.

I cannot wait :biggrin:

Can you tell me how it is going to work? I would love to know how you are going to implement it.

By what date you want to do it?

Thank you.

We have a demo of our system the 15th August.

I want to replace MS reporting viewer with something that allows the end user to edit the reports themselves (instead of the development team creating the reports)

I must say, the StimulReport editor component is by far the best.
