What's New in ActiveReports 12 Service Pack 2

We're excited to announce the release of the second service pack for ActiveReports 12! You may also have noticed some changes to the ActiveReports web page. We're continually upgrading our website UI to make finding features easier for you.

ActiveReports 12

This release is more than just bug fixes. We've included key improvements to some of our powerful controls and features.

• Tablix control has been enhanced for rendering performance.

• By customer request, we've improved joins in the Visual Query Designer. When joining tables that contain one or more fields with the same name (for instance, OrderID in the Orders and OrderDetails tables), Visual Query Designer now creates unique names for each of these fields.

• A new report sample called Flight On-Time Performance is now available in the Documents\GrapeCity Samples\ActiveReports 12 directory. It demonstrates how to implement nested data regions, a feature released in ActiveReports 12.

ActiveReports 12 Server

On the ActiveReports Server side, in addition to all of the ActiveReports enhancements, we've also given administrators more control over licensing and parameter validation.

• Admins can now list invalid license on the Admin Dashboard's Licenses page so they can easily remove them without replacing/cleaning controller.db.

• In addition, the server administrator can now choose to optionally validate parameters, so validation is not required.
