Need help urgently!!! ReportDataSource

Question

Hi everyone!!!

I need help urgently... I'm trying to load a rdlc report dynamically using entity framework. The reportviewer is showing, but no data is showing at all... At the moment I hardcoded the path to get it working, then I will load different reports depending on a value...

This is what I've done:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            ReportView.Reset();
            ReportView.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Local;
            LocalReport report = new LocalReport();
            ReportView.LocalReport.ReportPath = "C:\\Users\\Karen\\Desktop\\Connection42\\Connection42 Projects\\Multi platform Applications\\NeoXSolution\\NeoXSolution\\Neo.Web\\NoParameters.rdlc";
            ReportDataSource rds = null;
            // Get Entity Data
            
            rds = new ReportDataSource(ReportView.LocalReport.GetDataSourceNames()[0]);
            if (rds.Equals(null) == false)
                ReportView.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(rds);
            ReportView.Visible = true;
        }

Please help me, I really need to get it working... This is the first time working on this, if I missed anything, please tell me and any tips will be greatly appreciated.

thanks so much in advance!!!!

I think you need to supply the entity you are reporting on............

          // Get Entity Data           
ReportDataSourcerds = new ReportDataSource(ReportView.LocalReport.GetDataSourceNames()[0],YOUR_DBCONTEXT.YOUR_ENTITY_TYPE.TOLIST());

REPORTVIEW.REFRESHREPORT()

Hope that helps..........
