Exception in "page size" in designer preview

[Fabio Pagano]

Using released 2007.2 version for Vs2005.

If in designer preview i go in "page size" and the i click ok, i receive an exception.

Steps to reproduce the problem:

Create an application with the following code in Button1:

Code: Select all

Dim MyTable As New DataTable("MyTable")

        MyTable.Columns.Add("ID", GetType(Integer))

        MyTable.Rows.Add(1)
        MyTable.Rows.Add(2)

        Dim report As New Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport
        report.RegData("MyTable", MyTable)
        report.Design()

In designer, drag the table and choose the field "Id" (just to design something).

Click on tab "Preview".

In preview, click on "Page size" button and then click "OK".

An exception is thrown.

Note:
- The problem happens also if i change some setting (eg. Orientation)
- If i don't design any field, the problem disappears.
- I have had this problem in direct preview too.
- Actually all my installed printers are offline (so no printer communication)
- I have Italian settings (Language, Centimeters)

This is the exception trace stack:

System.NullReferenceException was unhandled
