Hi,
I would just like to know how to bind a DataTable to an XrTable inside of the XtraReport.
I managed to set a Datasource for the XtraReport itself, but how do I do that to the XrTable? And I also wanted to produce columns to the XRTable based on the columns inside of the Datatable.
Hope you have a solution for this.
Thanks.
Hello Willson,
Note that it's not necessary to bind the XRTable to the data source columns, but the XtraReport itself and the XRTableCells that reside within a table. I suggest that you check the How to create a report dynamically Knowledge Base article that demonstrates runtime creation.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Thanks,
Dmitry
Hello,
I've recorded a video illustrating how to bind XRTable cells to data fields at design time. Please review it. If your task is to set up bindings in code, use code snippets from the How to dynamically generate a report and bind it to a DataSet in a WinForms application code example (you need to use the XRControl.DataBindings property).
Please let me know if this information is helpful.
Hi Olga,
Yes i'd understand that I can bind XrTableCells to the SQLDataSource.
But my datasource is a DataTable and the DataTable is generated during runtime. I would just like to know how I can bind the DataTable generated during runtime.
Hello,
If you create your DataTable at runtime, you can set up control bindings in code. As I suggested in my previous comment, use the XRControl.DataBindings property for this purpose:
Visual BasicxrTableCell1.DataBindings.Add("Text", Nothing, "TableColumn1")
xrTableCell2.DataBindings.Add("Text", Nothing, "TableColumn2")
Please let me know if this solution helps.

Also: I would like to bind during runtime since the columns inside the DataTable are dynamic.
