  Good day.

  I just downloaded and activated my Active Reports 14 license and want to update my Visual Studio 2017 project, but I have the following problem.

  The version I am currently working with is 11 SP1 and I want to upgrade directly to 14. Is this possible?

  When I upgraded from version 10 to 11, I changed the version of the references in the whole project, for example.

  <add verb = “" path = ". ar11Web” type = "GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.Handlers.WebCacheAccessHandler, GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.v11, Version = 10.x.xxx.x, Culture = neutral, PublicKeyToken = cc4967777c49a3ff “name =” AR11_WebCacheAccessHandler “resourceType =” Unspecified “preCondition =” IntegratedMode "/>

  <add verb = “" path = ". ar11Web” type = “GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.Handlers.WebCacheAccessHandler, GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.v11, Version = 11.1.9726.0, Culture = neutral, PublicKeyToken = cc4967777c49a3ff” / >

  Also, I changed the DLLS in my project references from version 10 to 11.
  
  But in version 14 I just installed I don’t see the same DLLS that I currently have from version 11. Two examples.

  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.v11.dll (if I search for GrapeCity.ActiveReports.v14.dll in “C: \ Program Files (x86) \ GrapeCity \ ActiveReports 14 \ Tools” does not exist)
  
  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Viewer.Win.v11.dll (if I search for GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Viewer.Win.v141.dll it doesn’t exist).

  What is the correct way to upgrade from version 11 to 14?
  
  Why don’t all the DLLS I have in version 14 exist in version 11?

  Thank you.

  Hello,

  Because there are many changes between AR11 to AR14 due to .Net core support. Also, a new WebViewer is introduced in AR14. You can convert your project using the “Convert to ActiveReports14” tool. Also, you can refer to the following pages for more information:
  
  https://www.grapecity.com/activereports/docs/v14/online/breaking-changes.html
  
  https://www.grapecity.com/activereports/docs/v14/online/migrating-from-previous-version.html
  
  https://www.grapecity.com/activereports/docs/v14/online/activereports-and-the-web.html

  Hope it helps.

  Thanks,
  
  Mohit

  Thank you
  
  I used the “Convert to ActiveReports14” tool, but I have a lot of errors in the application.
  
  For example …

  With the TextAlignment statement

  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.TextAlignment.Left;

  AND
  
  Also with FontStyle

  Attached screenshots.

  Hello,

  Please use the following namespace for all alignment properties
  
  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Drawing
  
  instead of
  
  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section

  For Font issue,
  
  Please use the Enum with the full namespace.

  Thanks,

  2 doubts …

  I cannot add the Web Viewer control to the toolbar. Apparently it is because I don’t have GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.dll,. I did what this link says (Nuget Package), but I still don’t have GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.dll in the C: \ Program Files (x86) \ GrapeCity \ ActiveReports 14 \ Tool. Please help adding WebViewer in a .aspx page

  I can’t see the design view of my reports that already exist. And if I add a new report already with AR 14 I can’t see the design view either. What is missing in the project to add?

  Hello,

  In AR14, there is no dll present in installer. You need to add the dll through Nuget packages only. You can refer to the following link:
  
  https://www.grapecity.com/activereports/docs/v14/online/install-activereports.html

  Could you please share the sample with me so that I can look into the issue.

  Thanks,

  Thank you.
  
  I’ve already installed all the GrapeCity packages I found in NuGet, but that DLL didn’t install it for me.
  
  Also in the link that tells me, it mentions that GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.dll is in C: \ Program Files \ Grapecity \ ActiveReports 14 \ Tools (C: \ Program Files (x86) \ GrapeCity \ ActiveReports 14 \ Tools on a 64 -bit Windows operating system).
  
  Could you attach an image similar to the one that I am going to attach, where it is shown how to find that dll in NuGet packages?

  Unfortunately they do not allow me to share the project.

  Please help.

  Hello,

  Sorry for the confusion. It is a mistake in the documentation. In Tools folder, only those dll are existed which are essential to run the grapecity tool present in tool folder.

  As I said earlier, now dlls are not present in the installer. You need to install it from the NuGet.
  
  Could you please install the “Grapecity.ActiveReports.Web”. Please refer to the attached image.

  Please check the toolbox after adding the NuGet packages in your application.

  Thanks,
  
  Mohit

  I’m still in trouble, help please.

  1. Although I already installed the package GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web and GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Web.WebViewer…
     
     
     

     2168×1368 173 KB

  but in my .aspx the WebViewer does not recognize me and also in the Toolbar I don’t see the section “ActiveReports14” I keep looking " Active reports 11 ". (Attached image)…

  Error:
  
  name “WebViewer1” does not exist in current context

  }

  

  2168×1368 217 KB

  2. In a report I use the following code …

  Public ActionResult xyz (a, b)
  
  …
  
  ((Page report) (report)). Document.LocateDataSource + = Document_LocateDataSource;
  
  …
  
  …

  ---

  void Document_LocateDataSource (object sender, LocateDataSourceEventArgs arcs)
  
  {
  
  // This method assigns the data source to the report.

  try
  
  {
  
  args.Data = LstDaxxx;

  }
  
  catch (exception error)
  
  {
  
  if (args.Report! = null)
  
  {
  
  args.Report.PageReport.Document.Dispose ();
  
  args.Report.Dispose ();
  
  }
  
  throw a new exception (“Application error”, err);
  
  }

  }

  It shows me the error that I attach in the other attached image.

  While we’re doing the remote assistance thing, could I possibly tell what the DLL containing the “WebViewer” version 14 control is? I can’t find the DLL that contains controls for version 14.

  

  1366×507 197 KB

  and
  
  Could you share an example of a web application with WebViewer? please

  Hello,

  You can download the sample from the following link:
  
  https://github.com/activereports/WebSamples14/tree/master/JsViewerSamples/WebViewerPro_ASP.NET_C%23

  Please make sure that your application FW should be greater than or equal to 4.6.2.

  Also, I have sent your request to the concern team for remote session.
