empty report

[grazi]

Hi there,

i was trying to implement the report into my application but somehow i always get an empty report, even if there should be some static fields.

my code looks like this:

private void KurepForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
StiReport report = new StiReport();
report.LoadDocument(Path.Combine(Path.Combine(SettingsController.Instance.ServerFolder, "Reports"), "CpnKuRepSrv.mrt"));
report.Design();
//report.Show(this.ParentForm);
}

as you can see i'm also trying to open the report in the designer within my application, but also there i get an empty report (no headers defined etc.)
but when i try to open the file in the normal designer everything works perfectly.

did i miss something important?


Thanks for your help

I think you may be using the wrong method to load your report

you should be using

Code: Select all

report.Load(Path.Combine(Path.Combine(SettingsController.Instance.ServerFolder, "Reports"), "CpnKuRepSrv.mrt"));

I believe the LoadDocument function is for loading a rendered report that would have been outputted to an *.MDC file.

Hi,

thanks for your reply.
i just tried it but it gives me an exception that the TypeConverter can't convert from type string. Quite a strange exception since intellisense tells me that it accepts strings...

Edit: i get the same exception when i try to use a filestream

Hello,

Sorry we can't fix this error. Problem not in loading report. Problem in a way which .net environment use to find asseblies.

Thank you.

Is it one particular report causing the problem with the Load method or it occurs for all .mrt files you try to load?

Hi there,
i could solve the problem by updating to the newest prerelease version, so that's no issue anymore.
Thanks for your time
