My book “Reporting Services in Action” is finally available in print format. For time being, it can be purchased only from the publisher’s website (http://www.manning.com/lachev). It will probably take a couple of weeks before the book reaches other outlets such as Amazon.com.
Many thanks to those of you that will purchase my book. I sincerely hope you will find it as much fun to read as it was to write. I am always interested to know my product meet your needs. Please drop me a line to let me know what you liked or disliked about my book.
Happy reporting with Microsoft Reporting Services in Action!
Hello, Teo.
A quick question about awReportViewer. When on server side reporting can the normal toolbar be displayed as it is when url access is enabled in the original version that ms supplied.
I like all the advantages of using the proxy through soap. but would also like to have my cake and eat it as well 😉
Regards
Toby,
p.s. tell amazon to hurry up in the uk. i need the book.
Toby,
No, but this is not a limitation of the control. It is just that rendering reports via the RS Web service doesn’t support interactive features and the HTML toolbar.
If these are paramount, you need to go for URL access and possibly Forms Authentication for Internet reporting.
Not really, just a nice to have. Is there a way to render the report then in a new window. i.e. the report choice and format stays where it is and then on the click of "Run Report" a new window is launched with the report.
coul i do this be chaging the control rendering.
Regards
Toby.
Yes. In the AWreportViewer just comment out the check of IsHTMLReport so regarless of the export format the control will always stream the content to the user.
The browser will pop up the download dialog though.
