We are trying to figure out how the ReportViewer works and are stuck at the dataset/datasource part. We have a sql-query that connects with 3 different Servers. Is there a simple way to connect a rdlc report to such a dataset in a winform Project that will be shown in Report Viewer?
You have to add a ReportDataSource object to the LocalReport.DataSources Property. The constructor take two parameters.
First the name of the dataset (as it is defined in the rdlc repport), second a datasource object which could be any .Net Collection (ADO.Net DataSet or a simple List of object).
The mapping to the field declared is done in the same way than DataBinding. Just have the same name for the column of the ADO.Net DataSet or the property of the object in the list than the field in the report.

I have 2 Settings in my.settings within my vb.net Project called
my.settings.company
my.settings.tel
and I would like these to be displayed at the top of my Crystal Report.
I tried using the Database Expert within my report and added the .NET Object "My.Settings" to the Report and then dragged the company and tel variables to my report, however this doesn't work at all.
Any help ???
The easiest and probably the right way is to define parameters and to set their values from your application
Let me preface this by saying I am a beginner as far as .net knowledge.
I am developing a windows form application using tabs in VS2012 in vb. I have bound the datagrid through the designer to a sql server binding source which is populating the data. There are multiple columns in the table and these are split between two tabs with a datagrid on each tab. Both data grids have the same binding source just show different columns.
I created a view within the SQL server to pull in the column names. I think what I want to do and not sure if this is possible but have 2 combo boxes that will be used to filter. One of the would be bound to the view by a dataadapter and then the second to the datagrid binding source.
when the user selects the first combobox(columnname) it would then pull from the datagrid for that column and pull in the valid values to filter. It would then filter the datagridview and refresh it.
Then I am trying to remove the filters through the use of a button.
Can someone please help as I don't even know where to start
You can use Dataview in filtering datasources. You can refer to my answer at this question
I have been using excel to view the database tables by binding the sql database views in excel and making a spreadsheet. This works just fine but I want a solution in code.
Is there a way in C# ASP.NET to bind a database view directly to a gridview when given the view name as a string?
***SOLVED*****
I did some more research and found a solution. The main issue was that I didn't want to have to make any business objects or have a stored procedure on my database.
The solution I found was to use an SqlDataSource. I simply set the SqlDataSource.ConnectionString and set the SqlDataSource.SelectCommand to be "Select * From" +MyViewName and then bind the datasource to the gridview.
Using this method I essentially just have to pass in the table/view name and the gridview will be populated from the database directly. This allows me to use the same code and the only thing that needs changing is the database view name string.
