I need help to change the size of the body in a rdlc report. I cannot find anything to set the body size to A4. I selected A4 option in the report properties, but nothing changed. My only option was to manually change its sizes. Does anybody know how can I do this? Im finding rdlc interface pretty hard to understand.
You don't set the "body" size to A4, you set the "Report" outer-most level for the report. The overall PAGE of the report may default to the 8 1/2 by 11, but you can change that. Then the body will stretch and fill content to the allowed page size.

I've a Telerik RadGrid with 11 columns that is getting displayed normally on the web application,
however when I try to export this grid to word, it doesn't fit the document width and shows only the very first 6 columns,
I'm using _grid.MasterTableView.ExportToWord(); to export to Word
And I've tried to tweak its size a bit using _grid.MasterTableView.Width = Unit.Parse("300mm"); but still some columns are still not visible,
from the Word itself, I've tried to reduce the font size to 10 on the exported document, and I found that this will help displaying the entire grid on one document, however i cannot set set the Font property of the MasterTableView as it has no setter,
is there a way to make sure the entire grid columns will be displayed.
The exported document with hidden columns image
To solve this I've used
_grid.MasterTableView.Style["font-size"] = "10px";
I am trying to create an RDLC report in a newspaper like 2 column format. This is my first venture into RDLC report and I am an absolute noob here.
I have tried to follow the instructions here
How can generate RDLC report on two columns?
but still my report shows up in one single column. I have decreased my font so that there is plenty of space for both columns to fit, but still the report body content never spills over to the second column
Some other forums tell to use a filter variable to display odd rows on the left and even rows on the right, and so on, but I cannot use that approach because the client requirement is that the second column will only be used if the first column is filled.
I am attaching a screenshot of my first version RDLC design.
I am also attaching a screenshot of the report format that is actually required see bellow.
You have this wast "white space" around your table which still counts for "used" space. This could be one of the things that makes RDLC "push" what is can to the second page. The things to do is to:
Reduce report size (in designer) to the table size with no white space
Set report size and margins in Report Properties window:
Look at Columns and ColumnSpacing properties of your report as per:
.rdlc report: text on page in two columns
I created a rdlc report and set background image to it but I can't find a way to make the image fit the page size like A4 or something .. the image is large and resizing it didn't fix the issue
how to set the background to fit the report page
thanks in advance
You can not. All you can do is have an image that is smaller than the page size repeat in either direction using the BackgroundRepeat property.
I have one long report which contains 8 tablix. Now when the report needs another page for the records, it is clipping the records. I have set the page size to A4.
The first few records are clipped when printing. How to prevent this behaviour. I am new to RDLC.
You need to set top/bottom/left/right margins according to your printer.
I usually use this settings and never had problems (Report > Report properties > Page setup):
left/right margin: 1,3cm
bottom/top margins: 1,5cm
This is not connected to your problem but remember you need to set maximum report width according to these margins.
What can I do for subreport so that When i click on it, it won't appear on the seperate page?
I actually found a way but it is really ugly and not convenient for long reports.
My way is that.. I cover the subreport with a text object. And extends the length of text object depends on how many rows the subreport have.
It is work fine till some time.
For eg, My report has over 100 rows. If i only show up to 90 rows, it is ok. If i show over 90 rows, the error message pop up.alt text http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/a47646b658.jpg
I think the length of the text cannot follow up.
Could anybody tell me why?
The reason is the height of a section is limited to 32K. So more than that, there will be an error.
If there is 2 reports, then one of them should be a short one.
Make it a sub report and cover with the text object.
Make sure that it won't be over 32K of length.
