   Topic: Next page button not always working
Posted: 26 Mar 2008 at 12:21am |
I've created a report which I'm loading it into a CrystalReportViewer in Visual Studio 2005. When I run it though the next and previous buttons don't work correctly. It goes to page 2 ok but after that it wont move to page 3. I can type in the page number and it will go to the right page. If I'm on the last page and select the previous button it goes all the way back to page 1.
Has anyone else come across this problem and perhaps solved it?

Two things that you probably need to do. First, put the report loading code in the Page_Init() event. Second, save the report to the Session() colletion and then retrieve it from there when the page is reloaded (Page.IsPostBack). You don't want to recreate the report every time you go to a new page (thus losing track of your current page).

Hello and thanks for your reply.
I do save the document in a session, and load it into the viewer in page_load. I find it odd that it would work for page 1 and 2 and every other funktion requiring a postback working as well, and then suddenly when I want to go to page 3 it stops working.
Do you think moving it to Page_Init from Page_Load could solve it? I will try it, but I will have to do some modifications to the code.

Problem remained :(. Iīve also noticed that this problem doesnīt occur when I run locally against the viewer in C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ASP.NETClientFiles\Crystalreportviewers12.
EDIT: I also noticed another problem that only occurs when I donīt run locally. When I click on a group I donīt get a NEW tab for the group, instead my old tab with "mainreport" is replaced.

Thanks for your help, passing reportdocument in Page_Init instead of Page_Load solved it :)

Glad it worked. The problem occurs because there is a timing problem with the Viewstate data and responding to mouse clicks in the Page_Load() event. But when you put the code in the Page_Init() event then this timing issue doesn't happen and your mouse clicks on the page navigation buttons will respond correctly. I talk about this in Chapter 14 of my CR.NET books. You can find out more about my books at
Amazon.com
or reading the Crystal
Reports eBooks online.

{
ConfigureListBox();
ConfigureTextBox();
ConfigureCrystalReports();
if (!IsPostBack)
{Session[ "InRept"] = InRept;}

{InRept = ( ReportDocument)(Session["InRept"]);}
}
what am i missing?

First off, you can't use IsPostBack in the Init() event. This only works in the Page_Load() event. Secondly, you need to test if the Session["InRept"] = null and then call ConfigureCrystalReports(). Don't call it if it is already in the Session collection.

Hi Brian,
I am having the exact same issue, but moving the report loading to the Page_Init() didn't help. Could I create the report in Page_Load() which it's currently doing, store it in session, then retrieve it in Page_Init()?
I'm thinking there's just too much code that doesnt' execute when it's in the page_init() event.
Thanks for any info.
-Robert
