I'm getting “The report definition for report 'xxxx.rdlc' has not been specified” in my RDLC report

Question

I\'ve created an rdlc report. I have a reportViewer on my form. When I try to load the report I get : \"The report definition for report \'xxxx.rdlc\' has not been specifie

Answer 1

Where do you associate localReport with your reportViewer? Instead of:

  using (StreamReader rdlcSR = new StreamReader(@"Resources\VisibleAssets.rdlc"))
  {
      localReport.LoadReportDefinition(rdlcSR);

      localReport.Refresh();
  }

I used:

  using (StreamReader rdlcSR = new StreamReader(@"Resources\VisibleAssets.rdlc"))
  {
      reportViewer1.LocalReport.LoadReportDefinition(rdlcSR);

      reportViewer1.LocalReport.Refresh();
  }

And it seems to be working for me.
