Using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010...
I am using the same report file for a Win form and web form version of the same utility program. The report was built bases on a view to the database, and both programs populate the report based on a dataset which has the same columns with restrictive where clauses, based on user input prior to populating the report.
On the Win Form version, when the user clicks a group on the Group Tree, the report nicely navigates to the appropriate section of the report. However... on the Web version, the ReportViewer makes a return trip to the database, refreshing the data with the entire view, overwriting the original content. In other words, out of lets say 50,000 possible records, if I ask for 50, they are displayed as I want, but in the web report, if I try and navigate to any of the 50, I get all 50,000 (an no navigation), an unwanted return to the database.
I am perplexed, as it is the same report file used by both versions.
I tried hiding the Group Tree panel (I don't need it), per instructions (CrystalReportViewer1.ToolPanelView = ToolPanelViewType.None;)
But that only closes the panel, and it is still available to the user to open (icon remaining). Is it possible to really make the Group Tree unavailable?
thanks,
Mark
