Question

When using the ReportViewer control in an aspx page. If you fire an event (such as clicking a row) which then displays a sub/drillthough report…How can you access that Report object on the server side?

There is a DrillThough event for the parent report object that gets fired…but it doesn’t seem to have any access to the new report OR what values are being passed to the sub/drillthrough report.

Further, when the page reloads (postback) and the sub-report is displayed, I’m not even sure how to access the sub/drillthrough report during the page_load event…as you can’t seem to access it through the parent reportviewer…

I’m using the 2008 ReportViewer object

Answer 1

I was able to access the report using the DrillThroughEventArgs in the Report Controls DrillThrough event…
