Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

I am upgrading our projects that were using the older Reports.Net component (2008) to Reports.Web (2015).

These are ASP.NET projects using the Webviewer control.

When I run the report, I get back no data. But when I run the same report in Designer, I do get data back.

The report also has a combo-box and the selected item's text should appear on the report. In designer, the combo-box shows correctly but in Webviewer, it simply says "Combo box".

A few questions:

1. Do I need to recreate the report from scratch since it was originally built with the 2008 .NET Designer?

2. Is there a way to recompile the report for 2015? Do you need to do this?

3. Is there a way to add logging to a report?

This report contains a Form so I can't save it as a .CS and debug it in an ASP.NET project. This is because it references the Windows.Forms library which is not available in a ASP.NET project, and throws errors.

I fixed the second issue regarding combobox.

Instead of using combox.Text, I set it to combox.SelectedItem.

On the other, it looks like that Forms is causing the problem. I have other reports in the project that connect on start-up and those are working fine with the latest version.

Can you no longer use Forms with Reports.Web? Is there a replacement method for getting user supplied parameters?

The Forms feature is nice because we don't have to create individual report pages for every report and allows our users to customize the output.

Hello,

Please try to use the Request from User variables instead a Forms in Web.
You can find many sample reports in the Parameters category in our Demo.

Thank you.

Is there a way to download these sample reports?

I really like the look of the webviewer. Is the sample page using the webviewer FX version?
