  Hi Netsa,

  This issue usually occurs due to missing or incompatible ActiveReports references used in your project. When upgrading a project/package it is suggested to use the ‘Upgrade Tool’ instead of manually updating the packages as the latest version of each package may/may not be compatible with the version of ActiveReports used in your project.

  To fix this issue please open your project in VisualStudio and use the ‘Tools > Convert to ActiveReports XX’, this will remove and re-add all the ActiveReports references compatible with your version of ActiveReports.
  
  After this ‘Clean’ and ‘Rebuild’ your project and it should work as expected.

  However, if the issue persists please share a stripped-down sample that replicates the issue so we can test the issue on our end and further investigate the same.

  Thanks,
  
  Anand

  Hi Anand,

  I am using upgrade too still get the error. the test project is referencing System.Memory, Version=4.0.1.1

  ..\packages\System.Memory.4.5.4\lib\net461\System.Memory.dll But when i check the System.Memory, dll version it is 4.6.285..

  Sample simple code using section report AnnualSummary with image

  [code] private SectionReport report;
  
  private void CreateFormAnnualSummaryPdf()
  
  {
  
  report = new SectionReport();
  
  AnnualSummary schedule = new AnnualSummary();
  
  schedule.Run();
  
  this.AddPages(schedule.Document.Pages);
  
  this.ExportToPDF();
  
  }
  
  public void AddPages(GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.PagesCollection Pages)
  
  {
  
  addPages(Pages);
  
  }
  
  private void addPages(GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.PagesCollection Pages)
  
  {
  
  report.Document.Pages.InsertRange(report.Document.Pages.Count, Pages);
  
  }
  
  public void ExportToPDF()
  
  {
  
  exportToPDF();
  
  }
  
  private void exportToPDF()
  
  {
  
  //Method declarations
  
  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.Section.PdfExport objPDFExport = new GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.Section.PdfExport();

  string path = @"C:\Temp\Pdf\test.pdf";
  objPDFExport.ExportBookmarks = false;
  objPDFExport.Export(report.Document, path);
  

  }
  
  [/code]

  Hi Netsa,

  It would be difficult to comment upon the exact cause of the issue without going through a replicating sample, could you please share a stripped-down runnable sample that replicates the issue so we can test the same on our end and further investigate the issue?

  Thanks,
