An important part of the report is a graphical component, namely graphs and charts. They allow you to quickly analyse the data to assess the trend of growth or fall, or just quickly read information. That is how human perception works, that the graphic information is received more quickly. Therefore, on the road signs, you can see the images that are immediately understood and interpreted by the brain immediately.

In this article, we will tell you how to remove unnecessary buttons and add your “features” to the FastReport.Net toolbar. The developers have provided the ability to create their own preview mode.

To get a single PDF file based on multiple reports in FastReport.Net, forming from the code of the user application. You need to load a single object and build several reports sequentially.

Most reports display some data. Typically, this data is obtained from databases. Therefore, the report has a connection to the data source in order to have a list of available tables and fields, as well as the data itself. But what if at the time of writing the report, you only had a local database that you created a connection to inside the report. Then the report will not work properly. We need a valid connection. There are two ways out of this situation: use a data source from a user program, or replace the connection line in the report.

As a rule, controls are placed on dialog forms, with the help of which values ​​are set for further filtering. Often they are connected to the data source using the DataColumn property.

We connect to MongoDB from a FastReport .NET report through the assembly of the plugin-connector library to the database.

We connect the plugin, which is a connector to the report designer, in order to use the DB2 database. We collect it from the project. The resulting FastReport.DB2.dll library is a plugin.

The FastReport.Net designer provides a plug-in connector, which must first be assembled in the project. Before creating a data source in a report, make sure that FireBird is configured correctly.
