I have access to some RDL reports. I can use ReportViewer control in my app to display it, but How can I get data displayed in this report and put them into my database table?
Is it possible?
How can I get data displayed in this report and put them into my database table?
Short answer is No.
Reports are a one way data representation in the form of a read-only report from a datasource. It is not a conduit back to a database or a new database due to the read-only aspect.
To get the data, you need to examine the report, determine how it accesses the data source and use that process to access the get data in your program.

I have a big amount of data in a windows form c# application, and i want to generate a report with it. I don't want the report to access the database directly.
The report must have a list of orders (rows), a list of products (columns), and the amount of each product in each order (body). As i said, i have all that information in c#, and i want to put it in the report.
I've tried to use telerik report designer as well, with no result.
Is there any way to use a dataset in c# as datasource of the matrix?
I want to design a report in stimulsoft where the data displayed is changed by filtering in gridview. How can I do this? I designed my report and changed the data source by code, but my report always shows all the data instead of filtered data.
I am using LINQ for manipulation data in a database and my environment is C3 windows application form.
The answer depends on how you pass data to the report. If you use RegData method, you should call it again and Render the report with new data. Then just refresh the Viewer.
I am brand-spankin' new to Crystal Reports, and I am trying to create a new report based on an existing one. The author of the original report is long gone. I apologize in advance if my terminology is poor.
The data for the report is based on a connection to an ADO.NET XML .xsd file, and that file in turn reflects data returned from a stored procedure. I have verified that the underlying DataTable for the report contains rows. However, whenever I invoke the crystal report object to create the table, it shows no rows. I am pretty certain the report does not believe there are any rows, as I have a special function to count the number of rows. If that function counts no rows, I have a special field that displays "No data." That field is being displayed.
Is there some setting or something I can investigate to figure this out?
Edit: more information requested
I am using this in a C# Winforms application. The stored procedure is a select statement from SQL server 2008.
Ok, there seems to be a bug in Crystal Reports. When I updated the .xsd file for the data map, Crystal Reports would not always update the underlying connection. Sometimes selecting "Verify Connection" would update it, and sometimes not. I'm guessing this is why the report showed no records. I had to remove all files -- the XSD database table map file, the report file, and all their supporting dependent files -- and then remove the connection. Once the connection was gone, I added all the files back in, and added the datatable connection. This got the correct mapping into the report.
I am having some trouble with Report Viewer and RDLC files.
I have never before worked with any of these so I am still learning. I am looking for a guide to do the following.
I want to generate a report from a single object, ie. I have a list of objects and I want to pass say the first object to the report and then display the data contained in the properties of that object.
So basically I have a form which is completed and saved into my database, I have a custom object that stores the data captured in the form. I then want to click save and generate. This I then want to generate the report from the data captured on the page.
Any advise and guides would be appreciated.
I already have a xsd file generated from my object that I use as the dataset, I want to now supply the data.
It's very simple, but it's too long to write all the passages.
In short, you have to:
Create your RDLC file from the report designer
Bind your RDLC file with the DataSet you have
(Option) Bind your report with the ReportViewer to show it on your webpage
The third passage is optional because you can also write code to render directly your report and put it in download as pdf file (or excel).
This blog's post explain a lot of passages so just have a look at it.
There is also the famousgotreportviewer website but it's a bit outdated (still has good examples)
I have an rdlc report in my solution.
I want to set the report datasource with run-time generated data table.
How can I do that?
I haven't used any xsd file to design the report.
I just want to display the data table from the database on the report.
Try this link.
In the link you will see a class is added to the application and it is used as DataSource. You can add as many data sources as you want. You can also add more than one DataSource in one RDLC report.
