This walkthrough explains the steps involved in connecting a page report to an XML data source and creating a dataset. It also demonstrates the use of the List control.

The walkthrough is split up into the following activities:

Note:
  • This walkthrough uses the Factbook sample database. By default, in ActiveReports, the Factbook.rdsx file is located at [User Documents folder]\ComponentOne Samples\ActiveReports 9\Data\Factbook.rdsx.
  • Although this walkthrough uses Page reports, but this can be implemented using RDL reports also.

When you complete this walkthrough you get a layout that looks similar to the following at design time and at runtime.
