What happened to the default behavior of the report control hyperlinks? In the past, the report control would show a blue hyperlink that would show a hand cursor when the mouse was hovered over the hyperlink. Now the report control just shows plain text for the hyperlink with no hand when hovered. I have tried the XtremeReportControl%7EReportPaintManager%7EHyperlinkStyle.html - HyperlinkStyle and XtremeReportControl%7EReportPaintManager%7EHyperlinkHoverStyle.html - HyperlinkHoverStyle objects in the Report PaintManager objects with no success. The links show up as plain text. Even in the CodeJock sample applications there are no hyperlinks that work as you would expect a hyperlink to look and work, i.e. blue text with a hand cursor when hovered over. They are altogether gone.

If CJ wants us to use Markup exclusively, it should let us know more directly. I have received no such instruction. Can somebody provide some guidance on this? Thank you.

Oleg, can I request some assistance on the markup to serve as a temporary replacement until the code gets fixed? I am using the following Markup and it is not working. The mouse turns into a hand as the cursor hovers over the hyperlink on the report, but the procedure never fires. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? Thank you.

Sincerely,

John

 Private Sub GridLoad()
     With rptControl
         .EnableMarkup = True
         .MarkupContext.SetHandler Me
         .MarkupContext.SetMethod Me, "TempReportHyperClick"
     End With

      Set rptRecord = rptControl.Records.Add()
      Set rptItem = rptRecord.AddItem("My Link")
      rptItem.Caption = "<TextBlock><Hyperlink Click='TempReportHyperClick'>" & "My Link" & "</Hyperlink></TextBlock>"
      Set rtpItem = Nothing: set rptRecord = Nothing
 End Sub

 Private Sub TempReportHyperClick(oSender As Object, oArgs As Object)
       MsgBox "TempReportHyperClick Fires!"
 End Sub

I want to have a link through markup in a ReportRecordItem in a ReportControl and to fire an event when I click that link.

I have the following code in the Load event of the form.

	public void Hyperlink_Click(object Sender, object Args)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Clicked");
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
                axReportControl1.PaintManager.FixedRowHeight = false;
                axReportControl1.EnableMarkup = true;
                axReportControl1.MarkupContext.SetHandler(this);
                axReportControl1.MarkupContext.SetMethod(this, "Hyperlink_Click");
                
                axReportControl1.Columns.Add(0, "ColumnName", 100, true);
                var rec = axReportControl1.Records.Add();
                var item = rec.AddItem("My link");
                item.Caption = "<TextBlock><Hyperlink Click='Hyperlink_Click'>Click this</Hyperlink><LineBreak/> newline link </TextBlock>";
                item.CreateEditOptions();
                item.EditOptions.EditControlStyle = XTPReportEditStyle.xtpEditStyleMultiline;

		axReportControl1.Populate();
            }
            catch (Exception exc)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(exc.ToString());
            }
        }

On the line of code "axReportControl1.MarkupContext.SetHandler(this);" the following exception occurs:

System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.
