Visual Stiles required ?

Hello !

I am using the latest OLAP-Control with VS2008 on Windows Vista. I have a problem using it when switch my colorscheme to "windows-Standard" or anything else than "Windows-Aero".

Is there a workaround and if not, what is the minimum requirement to avoid the message that there is no visual style active ?

Hi Martin

I tried to reproduce this issue but had no problems, so I need some more detail:

1. What is the complete version of the C1Olap you are using? (I think I remember an issue like this, but that was fixed long ago).
2. Can you please post the exact steps I should take to reproduce the issue?

Thanks in advance.

Hello ! 

I am using Version 2.0.20093.21. I have read about a similar problem in the forum and tried out  the prerelease-Version 2.0.20093.26 and it worked.

My Steps are: I have no visual styles active in my Vista. I am creating an windows form in VS2008, dragging the OLAPPageControl from the toolbox to the form, drop it there and get this error (partly translated):

------------------------------------
Error creating component C1OlapPage

That's what I suspected. I suggest you use the 26 build. It contains the fix.

We will update the version that is available for download shortly.

Thanks for your input.
