How to display Form in HTML 5 viewer?
Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2025 7:50 pm
Our application uses a very old version of Reports.Web (2011).
The control is capable of rendering the Form page in the report. We use this to allow the user to set various report parameters such as start and end date, and other filters.
I updated our control to 2022.1.2, which now uses the HTML 5 web viewer. The Form page is no longer displayed so I suspect there is a different way to allow user input.
We have over 40 reports that contain their own Form based on the type of report. It would be very time-consuming to write code to have the app pass in the parameters to the report; not every report requires the same inputs.
What are my options on getting our reports and controls updated from 2011 with the ability to display a Form? Does the latest version of Reports.Web have a user input like the old Forms?
Thanks
