  RDL Report
  
  How do we change scripting language from VB.NET to C#?

  If unable to convert to C#, how do we access/edit certain objects in the report? Ex) update/retrieve textbox value and chart values in VB.NET?

  Hello!

  >> How do we change scripting language from VB.NET to C#?

  Unlike Section Reports it is not possible to change the Script language from VB Script to C# in Page/RDL Reports.

  >> If unable to convert to C#, how do we access/edit certain objects in the report? Ex) update/retrieve textbox value and chart values in VB.NET?

  Please note that Section Reports have an extensive API and is event-based, which allows you to control all aspects of the report and how it is generated. This is not possible with Page Reports. With page reports you can edit the report design only before the rendering starts. However, in the report design you can set complex expressions to perform many required operations.

  For bind Page Report with data(including C# object), please refer to the following section of our documentation: Data Binding

  For designing Page/RDL Reports please refer to the following sections of our documentation: Design Page/RDL Reports

  Please refer to the following pages of our documentation for creating expressions in Page Report: Expressions

  If you are stuck trying to achieve some requirements with Page Reports then please elaborate on the issue so we can help you achieve the same.
