The Web controls need to be directed to the server used for ActiveReports 8 Server in order to function. In your production application, specify the user name and password based on the current user and store information in the current session to persist these values.

To add the Designer control to a Web Form

  1. In Visual Studio, create a new C# ASP.NET Web Site.

    If you need to add the control to your toolbox, drop down these steps.

  2. Open the Design view of your Web Form and from the toolbox, drag and drop the Designer control onto the body section of the Web Form.
  3. On the message box that appears, click Yes to automatically add .svc files to your Web site to give the designer access to proxy services.
  4. You can resize the designer using the Properties grid by changing the Width property.
  5. So that the link at the top of the Designer will work for your Admin users, change the AdminPath property to the URL of your Admin site, for example, http://localhost:8080/Admin/.

To direct the Designer to the server used for ActiveReports 8 Server

You can specify the security token and ActiveReports 8 Server host using code in a Global Application Class.

You can also specify the user name, password, and ActiveReports 8 Server host in your web application's web.config file.
