Raised before a report starts processing.
[Visual Basic]
Public Event ReportStart() As EventHandler
[C#]
public event EventHandler ReportStart();
Remarks
This event can be used to initialize any objects or variables that are needed while running a report.
Note: Printer values are set after this event fires. The values that will be applied to the Printer object are in the PageSettings object. ReportStart is the event in which you can modify these values in the PageSettings object before they are applied to the Printer object.
Example
[C#]
private void rptUnbound_ReportStart(object sender, System.EventArgs eArgs)
{
string m_cnnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\Program Files\
Data Dynamics\ActiveReports.NET\Data\NWIND.MDB;Persist Security Info=False";
string sqlString = "SELECT * FROM categories INNER JOIN products ON categories.categoryid
= products.categoryid ORDER BY products.categoryid, products.productid";
m_cnn = new OleDbConnection(m_cnnString);
OleDbCommand m_Cmd = new OleDbCommand(sqlString,m_cnn);
if(m_cnn.State == ConnectionState.Closed)
{
m_cnn.Open();
}
m_reader = m_Cmd.ExecuteReader();
} |
