I’m trying to get a couple of report controls to work in a
DDN module. The first one is
Activereports, I used the starter kit to create a sample module and then dropped
the Activereport viewer onto view module.
After adding the module to a page, the Activereport viewer displays fine
in HTML mode but changing it to Activex causes problems. The Activex frame for the controls shows up
but the buttons for printing, magnifying, etc. are ghosted and the print area
is a dark gray. Changing Activereport to
the Acrobat Reader mode, causes the PDF view area to render the entire DNN page
in the view area also a dialog box pops up with the title (ActiveReports Viewer
Error) error (Error 5006: Invalid File Format)
I also tried to use the print control called XTRAreports
from Developer Express. Creating a new
module with the starter kit I dropped the XTRAreport viewer into my view module
and compiled. When rendered on a DDN
page the toolbar seems to work ok but the area where the report is supposed to
show contains:
Server Error in '/' Application.
Input string was not in a correct format.

I’ve
both of these reports just fine outside of DNN.
I
there a trick to using 3rd party controls?
FYI
– I’m using DDN v4.0.3 and the current DLL’s for my report controls.
Any
info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
