edp1959 from: somewhere | How do I get this to work with ASP.Net - I just get a blank page. Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Dim objWiz objWiz= Server.CreateObject("AspWebSolution.ReportWizard2") Dim dbConn As SqlConnection= _ New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("strConn")) objWiz.Init("dbConn") objWiz.DisplayReports objWiz= Nothing End Sub I read in the forum about a report.xml page, but can't find anything in the online manual about it. Do I need this .xml page for this to work? | ||||||

ghost from: Washington, DC | dotNet doesn't support late bound controls. And as such cannot set a reference to the ASP context objects. If you want to use this version with dotNET, you will have to call it jsut like a regular ASP page with <%...%> signs The dotNet version (v2.5) is comming out this summer hopefully before the end of july. ------------------------- Ghost | ||||||

whichman from: Laurel, MD | There is a way you can run COM objects with ASP.NET but it is a little complicated.

Darin from: Conway, AR | This isn't working for me. Does the .net version of the .dll have to be used with a corresponding version of the asp3 .dll? | ||||||

Darin from: Conway, AR | The answer was to run tlbimp.exe on the version that I have already. Trouble is that I can't get past the wizard now. After I click finish, I get a blank gray screen in the wizard, and no report displays. | ||||||

ghost from: Washington, DC | Do you have a reports.xml file in the same folder as your aspx page? ------------------------- Ghost | ||||||

Darin from: Conway, AR | I hope that isn't a requirement! I have the reports.xml location specified with the ReportsFile paramater, and it is in a different folder entirely. So far, it has been my experience that the ReportsFile parm is useless. You can't specify a different name and path. What use is it then? I need to be able to use multiple reports.xml files, preferably in a seperate folder from my code. | ||||||

ghost from: Washington, DC | If you have set your reportsFile parameter, then that is fine. Just make sure you set it before you initialize your connection string. Also make sure that the report wizard can read/write to this file - (ie. file and folder should have write permissions) If your ReportsFile's name does not end in reports.xml, the report wizard should automatically create this file at the specified location ------------------------- Ghost | ||||||

Darin from: Conway, AR | You guys may want to update the documentation with the tidbit about having to set this before initialization. That would've save me a lot of time and frustration. Update: Setting the ReportsFile prop. before initializing the conn string isn't working either. Update #2: I can specify a different filename, just not a different folder. The catch is, when I do this, none of the links on the report work. All yield jscript errors. Can't change pages, filter, or anything. | ||||||

ghost from: Washington, DC | Sorry for not stating this: If the folder exists, the report wizard will creat the file in the new location. The report wizard has almost no file system capabilities (security reasons) - so it can't create folders - just plain text-files (xml). About the documentation, I'm sorry we haven't done a better job - we will update it as soon as possible Remember: Always set all properties before Initializing your connection string . thanks! ------------------------- Ghost | ||||||

Darin from: Conway, AR | What about the jscript errors I mentioned? | ||||||
Jul 29 2004, 11:36 AM |
| ||||||
ghost from: Washington, DC | Can you please tell me when these errors occur? - ie what links do you click on before these errors occur? thanx ------------------------- Ghost | ||||||

Darin from: Conway, AR | I don't click on anything. The report is built and displays. Then if you try any of the links, you get the jscript error. | ||||||

whichman from: Laurel, MD | I still can't understand what is going on. Let me suggest a few steps that might take us somewhere: 1. Make sure that you are using version 2.4 or greater. Make sure that the XML parser works well. To do this, you can use this small vb program - TestXML3 ,which you can download from the following URL: http://www.cityjams.com/downloads/testxml/TestXML3.exe 2. Download and run this file (TestXML3.exe). - If your XML parser is working it will give you a successfull error message otherwise it will alert you the corresponding error message. - If you get an error message, try installing the complete TestXML3 program which you can download from the following URL: http://www.cityjams.com/downloads/testxml/installer.zip This should help because the installer comes with both msxml.dll and msxml3.dll files. You can download the source code for this project from the following URL: http://www.cityjams.com/downloads/testxml/project.zip If you don't get any error messages - which probably means that the XML parser is working fine, try using a different filename for your reports file (as shown below) and see if it will generate any errors. objWiz.ReportsFile="C:\reports\myReports.xml" If this still doesn't help, please let me know. ------------------------- Master of the Game | ||||||

ghost from: Washington, DC | What version of .NET are you using? The examples were tested with version 1.1. Have you added ASP compat=true in your page directive?------------------------- Ghost | ||||||
