Can someone please tell me how to get started using the CTP? I have installed NetAdvantage 2011 Ultimate - which is supposed to have the NetAdvantage Reporting included - but I can't figure out how to access it. I don't see anything in my toolbox, I don't see any documentation on Infragistics website. How did you all get started?
How do I open these samples? I tried to open the ReportingSilverlightApplication.Web project by using Open Project within Visual Studio and I get an error.
You can find the examples in Visual Basic here in the Users\Public\Documents\Infragistics\NetAdvantage 2011.1\Reporting\Samples\Reporting Sample Library\VB folder.
The CTP version (and our V1) does not provider a way to visualize the report from a web application. You would need to create a Silverlight application and embed it in a web app. In that case you can just use a SQL datasource and specify the InvoiceId as report parameter and use it to filter in the SQL sentence.

Okay. That was helpful. I have the product installed now.
I have scanned through the documentation. The samples show creating reports as a C# class based on a data source. I do not currently know C#. Is this going to be a problem?
My hope was to create a form type report (a single invoice, PO, etc) from within my Visual Basic web application page based on the particular invoice or PO, etc that the user selects. I think I would use the ReportDataSourceProvider object for this?
Hi,
The CTP is not included in the NA Ultimate installer. You can download it from here http://es.infragistics.com/dotnet/netadvantage/reporting.aspx.
