    Hi Mansi,
    Would you please provide me with additional information about how this tree-like data is organized in your data source? Is it a plain DataTable with a predefined parent and key fields or you are using a custom object with multiple nested levels?
    I am looking forward to hearing from you.

      Hi Ingvar,
      The data source holding the items will be a list, in which each item will have various properties like Id (unique), Name, Description, etc. Also there will be one more property to hold Parent Id, by which the hierarchical structure can be defined.
      For the top most Item, the Parent Id property can be null.
      Let me know if this information helps to achieve what I need.
      Regards,
      Mansi

      Hello Mansi,
      The easiest way to accomplish this task is to bind the TreeList control to a data source and then render it in the XtraReport via PrintableComponentContainer. We look forward to your feedback once you’ve had the opportunity to implement our suggestion.

          Hello Mansi,
          The first thing I would like to suggest is to create a TreeListControl class descendant and implement the IPrintable interface. This will allow you to print the descendant using the PrintableComponentContainer component. This tutorial should help you achieve this goal: How to: Create a Printable ListView Descendant Implementing the IPrintable Interface.
          In addition, here you can review approaches to creating a custom report control:
          How to: Create a Numeric Label
          How to: Create a Progress Bar Control
          As for your second question, I believe that you can use our XRRichText control for this purpose. Try to assign HTML code to its Html property to achieve this goal.
          Thanks,
          Dmitry

            Hello,
            Thanks a lot for the help.
            I used the second solution with XRRichText control, binding html content.
            thanks again!
