RDLC Report GetData and SetData standard method

• Add the following function in report code

public Shared CompanyAddressInfo as Object

Public Function SetData(NewData as Object,Group as Integer)

    if Group = 1 and  NewData > "" then

       CompanyAddressInfo = NewData

    End if 

End Function

Public Function GetData(Num as integer,Group as Integer) as Object

    if Group = 1 then

       if Choose(Num, Split(Cstr(CompanyAddressInfo), Chr(177)))="" then

          Return " "

       End if

       Return Cstr(Choose(Num, Split(Cstr(CompanyAddressInfo), Chr(177))))

    End if
End Function

• In Report Body – create the textbox and call the setdata function from hidden expression of textbox

=Code.SetData(Cstr(Fields!CompanyAddress1.Value) + Chr(177) +

Cstr(Fields!CompanyAddress2.Value) + Chr(177) +

Cstr(Fields!CompanyAddress3.Value) + Chr(177) +

Cstr(Fields!TaxIdentTypeCaption.Value)
, 1)

• Now just direct use the GetData function in report Header and Footer to get the value of index data.(Note: there is no need to create SetData function in report header as we do in old version report)

=Code.GetData(82,1)

  

• For Image Box = There is no need to create SetPicture and GetPicture function in report to print logo.You can directly use the field expression in report header and footer to print logo

=Convert.ToBase64String(Fields!CompanyInfo2Picture.Value)
