Data

To preview the report data are required. By default, data are taken from the Dictionary of the edited report. If necessary, they can be overridden. To do this you need to add the handler to the GetDataSet event. There is a sample code below using what data can be overridden:

C#:
 
protected void StiWebDesigner1_GetDataSet(object sender,StiWebDesigner.StiPreviewDataSetEventArgs e)

{
   DataSet data = new DataSet();

   data.ReadXml("D:\\Demo.xml");

   data.ReadXmlSchema("D:\\Demo.xsd");

   e.DataSet = data;
}
 

VB.NET:
 
Protected Sub StiWebDesigner1_GetDataSet(ByVal sender As Object,

                                                 ByVal e As StiWebDesigner.StiPreviewDataSetEventArgs)

   Dim data As DataSet = New DataSet()

   data.ReadXml("D:\\Demo.xml")

   data.ReadXmlSchema("D:\\Demo.xsd")

   e.DataSet = data

End Sub

As seen from code, data are taken from XML and XSD files. The same way exists for other data sources.
