Reportviewer Local ModeHi there,
I'm working with web site project using vs 2005. I wonder should I use reportviewer local mode to write all my reports. What is advanced / disadvanced of it? I have 3-4 books about asp.net but nothing mention about the reportviewer control. If any of you can point me to some web site that have samples it would be appreciated. Thanks. ps - my reports are depending on criterial which users selected. Hi Madison,
For vs 2005 reportviewer control, it support both clientreport and server report. Here are some of the difference and comments I can summarize: **server report means the report the completely hosted on the SQL server reporting service, you can develop the report through those SQL Server 2005's BI studio report projects and then deploy them onto reportserver. The advantage is that you can adopt those powerful settings and services(such as security ..) of the report services. Of course, you'll need a SQL server license here:) ** For Client report, you no longer need a SQL Server(license) since all the stuff are done within VS 2005. You author the report in VS 2005 and configure reportviewer directly use the client report file(RDLC file). And the datasource is also programmatic datasource (different from the datasource for server report). Surely, the design surface will be somewhat limited compared to SQL server reporting service server report. However, you no longer need a SQL server now. Here are some web resources on the VS 2005 reportviewer control: #The New ReportViewer Control in Visual Studio 2005 Provides Rich Capabilities to Fulfill All Your Reporting Needs http://steveorr.net/articles/ReportViewer.aspx #Using the ASP.NET 2.0 ReportViewer in Local Mode http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/ReportViewer.asp?select=2248811&df=100&for umid=341063&exp=0 #Building Report-enabled Applications with the New ReportViewer Controls (Part 2 of 2) http://www.devx.com/dotnet/article/30610/1954 And you can also convert the SQL Server reporting service report(rdl file) to client report RDLC file: #Converting RDL and RDLC Files http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252109(vs.80).aspx Hope this helps some.

Thank you for your reply. I just browse some of your recommend links, it's very helpful. I will stay with reportviewer for client only even we have SQL Server for our database. Do I need to do something different for deploy in web production server? Thanks.

I'm glad to be of assistance. For the following question: >>>>>>> Do I need to do something different for deploy in web production server?<<<<<< do you mean anything worth care when deploy ASP.NET site with reportviewer client reports? If so, I think there hasn't much different from an normal ASP.NET application. For reportviewer and the client report, just make sure the following things: ** rdlc file is correctly deployed to the target place so that it is accessible ** any of the datasource (used by your report) also accessible after you deployed the application ** If you've used custom assemblies, the deployment of the custom assemblies is also worth care Anyway, welcome to post here if you have any further questions.

I'm working thru creating reportviewer local mode now. It comes to my attention that the reports have similarity function to Access database report. How do I tell the page that I want to print only the report not the other fields on the page? I still have some troublems with report layout could you recommend web site about the tricks and tips reportviewer? Thanks. Hi Steven,
I'm reading about webform reportviewer local mode and just find out that I cannot print report like winform. Is is true that I cannot print report or preview for asp.net application? What is the point to use reportviewer if you cannot print the report? Do you have any recommendation about how to handle it? I'm used vb for coding. Thanks. Hi Madison,
Thanks for your reply. For the printing question you mentioned, it does be an limitation of the client mode report. So far the webform reportviewer control only support printing for server report( a report from SQL Server server-side reporting service). However, for client report, you can use code to programmtically render out them(as TIFF image stream) and flush into a separate page(a printing dedicated page) so as to let the user print. Here are some web articles mentioned on this: #VS2005 Web ReportViewer client browser printing http://forums.asp.net/p/1059619/1522215.aspx#1522215 #Re: print option in ReportViewer control in local processing mode http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=520503&SiteID=1 Sincerely, Steven Cheng Microsoft MSDN Online Support Lead This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. -------------------- Show quote >From: =?Utf-8?B?TWFkaXNvbg==?= <Madi***@discussions.microsoft.com> >Subject: RE: Reportviewer Local Mode >Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2007 12:17:03 -0700 > >Hi Steven, >I'm reading about webform reportviewer local mode and just find out that I >cannot print report like winform.

Thank you for your reply. I try to follow the coding http://forums.asp.net/p/1059619/1522215.aspx#1522215 I don't know or understand how the coding working. Is it working for web application or window application? I can tell my users to handle with export to PDF/Excel first, then print the PDF/Excel file locally and I may go with it. I have tried it on my machine but not on the web server I'm not sure it will work with web server. The PDF looking good but how I dynamic set margin and change the font? I have extra white page for each report, how do I fix it? I thought it may be from the report layout but the table width only 6in wide. I'm very appreciate your help. Sincerely. Thanks for your reply Madison,
Well, let me explain the mechanism a little further: Webform ReportViewer class use a "LocalReport" class to represent a local report's instance in runtime memory, it has the following render method which can help you manually perform render task(by supplying mime, layout, or other formatting info) and finally get the rendered binary content of the report in a "Stream" object or byte[] array, see the following MSDN reference: #LocalReport.Render Method http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.reporting.webforms.localr eport.render(VS.80).aspx you can find that the method contains several paramters: =======the one you'll need to set format======= **format The format in which to render the report. This argument maps to a rendering extension. Only the EXCEL format is supported in this release. **deviceInfo An XML string that contains the device-specific content that is required by the rendering extension specified in the format parameter. For more information about device information settings for specific output formats, see "Device Informatio =============== I would choose another two articles here which dedicated on webform reportviewr's custom rendering&printing: https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1781049&SiteID=1 http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=240094&SiteID=1 In one of the example, it render the report as "PDF" or "IMF" image format(hold in a stream object or byte[] array) and print it through server-side printer. For your scenario, if your client user want to print the report, you need to render the binary content out in browser and let the user print that page which display the content(pdf or IMF image). The "walkthrough" one in the above articles demonstrate this. If you still have any questions on this, welcome to post here.

Thank you for your follow up. I just try to compile and move the code to staging server. When I try to run it give the error message say: An error occurred during local report processing. The definition of the report 'Main Report' is invalid. The report definition is not valid. Details: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1. It did not give me any problems when I ran from my machine. Do I have to change any web.config or install ReportViewer.exe? Thanks.

Since it works on development machine, should be a problem due to deployment environment. If it only have .net framework 2.0 installed(but not visual studio 2005), you need to run the Reportviewer.exe redistributable package. ReportViewer component(assemblies) are not by default included in .net framework. see the following msdn reference: #Deploying Reports and ReportViewer Controls http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms251723(VS.80).aspx Sincerely, Steven Cheng Microsoft MSDN Online Support Lead This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. -------------------- Show quote >From: =?Utf-8?B?TWFkaXNvbg==?= <Madi***@discussions.microsoft.com> >Subject: RE: Reportviewer Local Mode >Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2007 10:59:01 -0700 > >Hi Steven, > >Thank you for your follow up. >I just try to compile and move the code to staging server.

Thanks for follow up. I haven't try to put report to web production server yet. I have to talk with our network person to install ReportViewer.exe on web server. I'm very appreciate with your help. The next step, I wil try to put report to word document. Can I do that with word document? Thanks. Hi Steven,
I just finished install Reportviewer.exe in staging machine and compiled my web appliction. When I try to run the application with reportviewer I got the message say Server Error in '/Mywebserver' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The report definition is not valid. Details: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: The report definition is not valid. Details: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1. The application ran fine in my development machine before I compiled. Thanks for your help. PS. As I mention about reportviewer print to word document. I figure out that they do not work for word or do they? Will microsoft have this add in for next release? Thanks for your reply Madison,
How are you doing? As you mentioned the error still occur after you've install the reportviewer.exe control, correct? I suggest you first open the GAC(check the "c:\windows\assembly" folder) and verify that the reportviewr related assemblies are in it. I've also searched some former issue and one existing problem is due to the VS 2005 web publishing function. So are you using the "Publish WebSite" function in VS 2005 to publish the application to IIS server? If so, it may has alter the RDLC file of the client report. You can open the two files(on dev box and the one in published app folder) to see whether they're identical or you can manually copy the rdlc from dev box again to product server to see whether it helps.

Thank you for your follow up. I found some article about reportviewer that you can references ReportViewer.Common.dll ReportViewer.WebForms.dll ReportViewer.ProcessingObjectModel and put dll in the bin folder then you will be fine. I may try this solution. I did used "Publish WebSite" function in vs 2005 and un-check for all 3 options. I must go with this otherwise I will have some problems with our 3 party use by this application. Now I can not make any changes for content in aspx page any more because the compiled aspx just marker file generated. I'm struggling to go back using web application project (old way as framework 1) then I don't have to worry copy RDLC files and I can change any contents in web page. I spent about of time working in this project which is deadtime in this December. I thought I knew enough asp.net but I don't now. Thanks.

Glad to hear from you and your progress. For the web application publishing, are you using the "non-updatable" option? If so, the compiler will compile both aspx template and codebehind code into assembly(that may cause you not be able to modify the aspx file after publishing). Anyway, please feel free to post here as long as you need help.
