Crystal Report SET Parameter value from asp.net c# in runtime

When you design a crystal report most of the time you need to use crstal report parameter specially to design report header. Like you are going to ouptut a report which contains a ceratin date data or may date range data. SO that you need to write the date range or date to specify the report data date. In this scenario you need to use Crystal report parameter because the data you will bind, may or may not contain the date or date range. User select a date or date range from front end & you will filter those data to bind the report as well as you need to set the date or date range value to report header by sending the date or date range to crystal report parameter. Here i will show you only how you can set one or more or multiple crystal report parameter from asp.net C# page in the runtime.

To know how to bind data please read the below url:
Runtime dynamically bind data into a crystal report using Asp.net C#



Please follow the steps below:
1. Add a crystal report in your project.
2. From Field Explorer right click on Prameter Fields node & click on New.
Create parameter
3. Define the parameter name & Datatype.
Define parameter
4. Drag & Drop the parameter into your report
Drag Drop parameter
5. Now Add an aspx page into your project & set the datasource & parameter value in the following way:
view source
print?
01 protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
02     {
03         DataTable dt = new DataTable();
04   
05         dt.Columns.Add("username");
06         dt.Columns.Add("useremail");
07         dt.Columns.Add("mobile");
08   
09         DataRow oItem = dt.NewRow();
10         oItem[0] = "Shawpnendu Bikash Maloroy";
11         oItem[1] = "shawpnendu@gmail.com";
12         oItem[2] = "+8801711080648";
13   
14         dt.Rows.Add(oItem);
15   
16         ReportDocument _rdTransactionDetails=new ReportDocument();
17         string reportPath = Server.MapPath("rptusers.rpt");
18         _rdTransactionDetails.Load(reportPath);
19         _rdTransactionDetails.SetDataSource(dt);
20           
21  // Set the parameter value from here
22  _rdTransactionDetails.SetParameterValue("date", DateTime.Now);
23         CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = _rdTransactionDetails;
24     }

Please note that "set the parameter value into the report after binding data". Otherwise you will get a prompt to enter data.

Now run the project & check that the report shows the date that you send from aspx page in runtime:
Crystal Report

GRIDVIEW GROUPING

When displaying data, we sometimes would like to group data for better user experience or when displaying long list of hierarchal data, we would want to display them in a tree view kind of structure. There is more than way of doing this, but I am going to explain achieving this functionality using  AJAX Collapsible Panel Extender Control . Overview: I am going to use  Adventure Works  as datasource. Every product in  Production.Product  table belongs to a product sub category. We fetch handful of products and the sub categories they belong to from the database. Our objective is to list all the available sub categories and allow user to  expand/collapse  to look/hide the list of products belonging to each subcategory. Database Connection Added following entry under  connectionStrings  element in  web.config . < add   name = "Sql"   connectionString="Data Source=(local); Initial  Catalog = AdventureWorks ...

ADO.NET Concepts With example

COMMAND OBJECT  Command object is the biggest object in ADO.NET  It is the only object which can perform actions with database  It  can be created directly using Command class or can be created using Connection.Create command (factory classes also contain creation of Command). Ex:  SqlConnection sqlCon = new SqlConnection("......");    SqlCommand sqlCmd = sqlCon.CreateCommand();  Commands that we run depend upon the kind of query that we want to execute with database. All databases support two types of queries. i. Action Queries ii. Non-action Queries Action queries are those which change the state of database and which don‟t return any query results(though they return the number of records affected). Ex: Insert, Delete and Update statements Non-action queries are those which don‟t affect the database but return the results to the user. Ex: Select statement Method of execution of queries: Command object provides the following methods to execute queries: 1. Ex...

GRIDVIEW ZOOM IMAGE

When you have images in your  GridView , you would most likely show them as thumbnails so as to not distort the whole layout. However user would want to look at the full image by clicking on the image or just hovering his mouse over it. In today’s applications, this is a basic requirement and there are just so many third party controls or plugins which would support this functionality. I am going do this conventional way using  javascript  way in this article.  On top of it, I am also going to explain how to get images from database using  HttpHandlers . Example: I am using  Adventure Works  as datasource. We fetch handful of products and bind them to the grid. When page is initially loaded, we retrieve products from Production . Product  table and bind them to the grid. We display some product attributes such as Product ID, Product Number, Product Name, List Price and product’s thumbnail. When user hover his mouse on the page, we fetch the f...
