Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

Hi!
I have the demo version of Stimulsoft installed on my computer and am evaluating wheather to buy your product or not. So far I am more than pleased! Everything works fine on my computer but when deploying to another computer the stimulsoft designer doesn't run. I can load and see the report in the stiReportViewer I am using but clicking the button in order to start the designer I get the following exception:

ex.Message: Assembly 'Stimulsoft.Report.Design' is not found!
Stacktrace:
System.Exception: Assembly 'Stimulsoft.Report.Design' is not found!
at Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport.PrepareForDesign()

at Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport.Design(Boolean dialogForm)
at Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport.Design()
at VitecControls.UCReadingForm.DesignReport() in C:\Visual Studio Projects TFS.......

All Syncfusion dll's are deployed to the same location on the machine so I know that Stimulsoft.Report.Design is not missing. Stimulsoft is NOT installed on the other machine.

Please give me hints on how I can get it to work.
Thankful for your help!

Hello,

Stimulsoft.Reports.Design.dll

Thank you.

Hello again,
Yes, the exception clearly says that Stimulsoft.Report.Design.dll is not found but I know it is not missing. We have placed it in the bin catalog just as the other Stimulsoft dll's. How come I can watch the generated (rendered) report but not start the Stimulsoft designer for the same report.

What exakt dll's do we need if we in our winform application wants to view the report and be able to design it at runtime?

We do not want to have to install Stimulsoft on the computers, just ship the dll's. Is that possible for the Report Designer? Since viewing the report is possible but not design it at runtime I have to ask this so I know if we have done something wrong.


Regards,
Linda
