DocumentViewer not showing report unless i also have report.showpreview

created 12 years ago

Hi,

I have written a test application to show report data.

I would like to know what else I need to do to the following, because when I run the application the documentviewer1 control only (which is on a windows form of its own as i need to have other things on there) contains/shows report data if I include the newreport.showpreview line of code. This then means that I have two windows forms open with the report data.

I just want to show the documentviewer1 control on an existing form with the report data.
thereport is the xtrareport design.

_table = gdbmod.GetDataTable("select * from reports.report328vw")

_table.TableName = "report328dtl"

ds.Tables.Add(_table)

Dim newreport As New thereport

newreport.DataSource = ds

DocumentViewer1.DocumentSource = newreport

newreport.ShowPreview()

    I am afraid I cannot find an appropriate solution to this problem without additional information. Would you please post here a small sample project that demonstrates this issue? This will make the situation clearer.

      Hi,
      Before assigning the report to the dcoumentViewer, you have the call newreport.CreateDocument(); No need of the newreport.ShowPreview().
      Hope this works
      Cheers
