Hi,

I've solved problem in different way. I had to use LoadOptions.PreserveWhiteSpaces

regards,

Sebastian

Thanks Petar. That's what I intended to paste, but your forum software seems to have some issues. Almost every thread I look at has someone trying to paste some code, and it always looks terrible. Is someone ever going to fix that?

Thanks,

Hello Mike,

I have been following through this thread and was wondering if this is the code you intended of pasting:

“ XElement document = XElement.Parse( template, LoadOptions.PreserveWhitespace );

XNamespace igr = document.GetDefaultNamespace();

XElement pageSettings = document.Descendants(igr + "PageSettings").FirstOrDefault();

Once I have finished with the document, I use the following code to finally generate the report.

string report = document.ToString();

using (IServerExporter exporter = ServerExporterFactory.CreateExporter(new MemoryStream(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(report))))

{

    using (MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream())

    {

        exporter.DataSources = dataSourceValues;

        exporter.Export(memoryStream, GetExportFormat(exportParameters.ExportFormat));

        using (FileStream outStream = File.OpenWrite(filePath))

            memoryStream.WriteTo(outStream);

    }

} ”

Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

There's a bunch of duplication in that post, and I can't seem to edit it. Sorry about the mess.

Mike

As I said, I'm not using XmlDocument, I'm using the newer XElement class hierarchy. I load the report defintion from a file system into a string (template, below). Then I use code like the following to load and examine it:

.PreserveWhitespace );

igr = document.GetDefaultNamespace();

).FirstOrDefault();

Once I have finished with the document, I use the following code to finally generate the report.

string report = document.ToString();

( IServerExporter exporter = ServerExporterFactory.CreateExporter(

new

MemoryStream( Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes( report )

 ) )

Sorry about the formatting, but it's the forum software that wrecks it. The above code is somewhat simplified from what I'm actually doing (for clarity) but I hope it helps you.

Mike
