I’m working with RDLC reporting, and have experienced a scenario related to hierarchical data binding.
I need to list customers and their order as follows,
Customer Name:A
OrderID:1
Order Description:test1
Products:aa, bb,
OrderID:2
Order Description:test2
Products:cc, dd,
Customer Name:B
OrderID:233
Order Description:test 3
Products:ef, gh
So, I have used outer table for displaying customers and inner table for displaying related orders.After doing that, however, I’m unable to bind different data source for inner table , because it is already bind to outer table’s data source.
Is it possible to bind a different data source to inner table or Are there any alternatives to do so ?
I don’t think its possible from memory, I had a similar problem with relational data.
My solution was to make it into one dataset and that got around the binding problem.
An alternative would be to allow users to “drill” down into a separate report that shows those orders per customer?
