reportviewer control issue

Question

Hello everyone,

I am using VSTS 2008 + C# + .Net 3.5 + ASP.Net + SQL Server 2008 Enterprise to learn how to use reportviewer.

Under the toolbox and under Data Tab, I learned there should be reportviewer control which I can drag into aspx page designer. But I can not find reportviewer control. Any ideas what is wrong?

thanks in advance, George

Answer 1

There is a possibility to not have install it.

But first search to be sure... Start from an aspx page on design form, then on the tool box, in my computer there is a Reporting tab.

Now if you do not see it go to any tab on toolbox, rightclick on it, and find by clicking on "chose items" and add the

Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms
Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms

and you get the Reporting

If you do not find when you search it, get it here and install it.
