Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

At the field Text12 there is a Condition with expression defined like this:

((double)Sum(ProjectActivities.Duration) - GetWorkTime(new DateTime(ProjectActivities.StartTime.Year, ProjectActivities.StartTime.Month, 1),new DateTime(ProjectActivities.StartTime.Year, ProjectActivities.StartTime.Month, 1).AddMonths(1).Subtract(new TimeSpan(1,0,0,0)))) < 0

Or you could also write:
((double)Sum(ProjectActivities.Duration) - 1) < 0

If the Report is compiled the SourceCode is definitely changed and looks like this and is causing errors:

private void Text12_Conditions(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
if (((double)Totals.Sum(ProjectActivities.Duration) this, "GetTotal1") < 0)
{
((Stimulsoft.Report.Components.IStiTextBrush)(sender)).TextBrush = new Stimulsoft.Base.Drawing.StiSolidBrush(System.Drawing.Color.Red);
((Stimulsoft.Report.Components.IStiBrush)(sender)).Brush = new Stimulsoft.Base.Drawing.StiSolidBrush(System.Drawing.Color.Gainsboro);
((Stimulsoft.Report.Components.IStiFont)(sender)).Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 9.75F, System.Drawing.FontStyle.Bold, System.Drawing.GraphicsUnit.Point, 0);
((Stimulsoft.Report.Components.StiComponent)(sender)).Enabled = true;
return;
}
}

It seems there is a problem, if a minus “-“ or brackets “)” are present in the condition.

The same report worked fine in Version 2008.1.222.0.

Please help me in this case, because a lot of conditions are used in the reports.
Best regards

Hello,

It seems that you don't receive our answer via EMail. Please change Sum(ProjectActivities.Duration) to Sum(ProjectActivities, ProjectActivities.Duration).

Thank you.

Hello,

thank you for your answer. You are right, I didn't receive your email concering this case. It works if I use the Sum-Function like Sum (object dataSource, object expression).
But what about the Sum-Function Sum (object expression) that is causing the problem. Will this problem be fixed?

If not I have to change a lot of reports.

Thank you.

Hello,

Patch will be available in few days. I will inform you about progress.

Thank you.

Hi

Sorry we could not fix it. You need to change those reports because we extended work of Sum function since and you need to specify a DataSource now explicitely.

We tried to fix that behaviour but it seems that this is not possible for now.

Thank you.
