I have tried to find a sample of how to add a SharpShooter Report to a WinForm using Strataframe but I just don't seem to be able to put all of the parts together to get it too work. Can someone direct me to a simple sample that I could follow? TIA.

Hi Terry,

Do a search in the forums using "SharpShooter" you will find a couple of messages which even have a sample application that Ivan posted to help us do this integration.

Edhy I did and I am missing something. Maybe it is the order you do things in. I will try again, Thanks.

Hi Terry .

Have a look at this post in particular. It goes through the process quite well, and Ivan has a sample there that shows exactly what you are looking for (you can download his sample here.)

Past that, if you could give a more detailed description of exactly what you are trying and where you are getting hung up, then we'll do our best to un-hang things for you

I tried that sample but I get a huge number of errors when I try to load it and of course I am not sure why. I will look at the detail of the post and start there. Thanks again.

Terry,

If you are new to .NET, when you open projects created on another computer you may get errors related to not having the same library version which are referrenced in the project, so it may be happening that the version of the Report SharpShooter you have is not the same as the one used in the sample project.  If this is the case just remove the old references and add them again and rebuild the solution.

Hope this help.

Like Edhy said, check your references.  That is most likely your problem.

Your both correct and now I can run the projects and they both work. One is Ivan's I believe and one is Trent's. But when I look at the forms in designer mode they both just show up as "Standard Forms" with no controls or anything in the Component Tray. Of course when I run them one has the SharpShooter Report viewer on it and one has a button to preview. How does that happen? Again if these are stupid questions I apologize but I was looking for the forms to have at least a BusinessBindingSource in the component tray????

Thanks for the help so far.

What sample are you looking at?  Give me the link.

Here are the links I used:

One is the WindowsApplication1.zip found at

and the other is SimpleReportShooter.zip found at
