Report window and 2-up labels

When I run a multi-column report like labels, the preview does not look like
the labels actually print. Is there a method/property or something that can
make the preview look similar to the actual printed output when printing a
multi-column report? Thanks.

I'm not sure if this will help; however, you could try placing the
controls that are being used into a single rectangle control or adjust
your column spacing (by right-clicking Column 2 and select
Properties). Hope this helps.

David,
I don't think there's a way to get Preview to look like the printed
output straight-a-way as what you're seeing in preview is the HTML
rendering of the xml code. However, once you're in Preview you can
click on the Print Layout button (right next to the Print button) to
give you a rendering of the page as it will print. Once you change to
this view, it'll stay that way as you flip back and forth from Preview
to Layout.

Report size distplays incorrectly

I have a report that I have generated in VS and using the push method I'm sending the data to the report when it displays in the web page on localhost.

When the report displays only the topleft corner of the report can be viewed, also the report taskbar has a horizontal scroll bar attached to it as the width of the report is too small. If I use any of the buttons on the report taskbar when its running, when the page is refreshed I get the crystal reports viewer object instead of the report.

I have tried to change the size of the report in code but it doesn't affect it.

Has anyone come across this before?

TIADid you set the proper Printer settings?

Report rendering in webform

Hi,
Currently I display report in my webform (website) using
Reportviewer.ReportURL method which fetch report from Report Manger through
Http:// port. which takes too much to rendering report.
Is there any method through which I can render report in my webpage through
reprot API or something like that so that it doesn't fetch report through
http port and rendering time should be fast.
Thanks in Advance.Kam,
I am curious as to how you determined that using HTTP-GET causes the slow
performance? Did you look at how long it takes for the database query to be
processed, report to be generated and rendered?
Requesting your reports via HTTP-GET is the fastest way to generate them.
Think of the Report Server (not Report Manager) as a web application. Your
request/response total latency consists of submitting the report request to
the Report Server, querying the database, generating the report, rendering
the report, sending the report payload to the Report Viewer (browser), and
displaying the report in the browser. From this latencies, you should focus
on minimizing the time it takes to query the database and generate the
report.
Here is a tip: use the RS Execution Log to find out how much the Report
Server spends querying, generating and rendering your report.

The RS Execution Log is stored in the ExecutionLog table in the RS
ReportServer database. For analyzing its data easier, you need to install
the Execution Log DTS package. Check the Rs documentation for the following
topics:
- Report Server Execution Log
- Querying and Reporting on Report Execution Log Data
