Quick Start

This quick start topic guides you through a step-by-step process of creating a simple application for loading a SSRS report in the FlexViewer control. It uses a SSRS report named AdventureWorks, from the ComponentOne report server.

The following image shows a SSRS report opened in FlexViewer.

To load a SSRS report in FlexViewer programmatically

• Step 1: Setting up the application

• Step 2: Load the SSRS report in FlexViewer

• Step 3: Build and run the project

Step 1: Setting up the application

1. Create a new WPF application.

2. Drag and drop C1FlexViewer control in the XAML view.

3. Add Loaded="Window_Loaded" to the <Window> tag in XAML view to create the Windows_Loaded event.

Step 2: Load the SSRS report in FlexViewer

• Switch to the code view and add the following code to initialize the variables to be used as parameters for NetWorkCredential Property.

  
  

  Shared ReadOnly
  ssrsUrl As String = "http:// server url",
  ssrsUserName As String = "*",
  ssrsPassword As String = "*", 
  ssrsDomain As String = String.Empty

  static readonly string
  ssrsUrl = "http:// server url",
  ssrsUserName = "*",
  ssrsPassword = "*",
  ssrsDomain = string.Empty;

  2. Add the following code in the Windows_Loaded event to provide the location of the report on the server using DocumentLocation and set the credentials using Credential property:

  
  

  Dim ssrsDocSource As New C1SSRSDocumentSource()
  ssrsDocSource.DocumentLocation = New SSRSReportLocation(ssrsUrl,
                                   "AdventureWorks/Sales Order Detail")
  ssrsDocSource.Credential = New NetworkCredential(ssrsUserName,
                             ssrsPassword, ssrsDomain)

  C1SSRSDocumentSource ssrsDocSource = new C1SSRSDocumentSource();
  ssrsDocSource.DocumentLocation = new SSRSReportLocation(ssrsUrl, 
                                   "AdventureWorks/Sales Order Detail");
  ssrsDocSource.Credential = new NetworkCredential(ssrsUserName, 
                             ssrsPassword, ssrsDomain);

3. Render the SSRS report in the FlexViewer control using DocumentSource property.

   
   

   viewer.DocumentSource = ssrsDocSource

   viewer.DocumentSource = ssrsDocSource;

Step 3: Build and run the project

1. Press Ctrl+Shift+B to build the project.

2. Press F5 to run the application.
