I'm looking for help with automatically printing the pdf that is created from my .igr when my web page runs. I use a combination of exporter and memorystream to write the pdf to a server folder. (see my previous forum post titled "Emailing a report created by the report exporter"
Then I tried using ProcessStartInfo with verb="Print" to actually print the pdf.
This works great on my development PC - however, it does not work on the web server. The pdf gets created in the server folder, but the pdf does not print. In fact, I have no idea what happens. There is no error - and there is nothing on the printer.
I've spent several hours googling for a solution without success.
Hello Sylvia,What exactly do you need? There is no way to print pdf automatically after the page is loaded without prompting the user.
I'm looking for a way to batch print a group of reports. The user would enter a range of dates, and then I would print one report for each record I found within that range.
I wanted to do it from a button click in the web app. It appears it is not possible however.
So, now I"m thinking I will create a windows app which can be run from a job scheduler or user interaction.
I want to use the existing report I created in the web app. Can I just pull it into a windows app? How would I pass parms to it?
If you can point me to some documentation or examples for creating windows apps using NetAdvantage Reporting that would be a great start.
Thx!
