Hi,
 
I just wanted to know how the load and savesetting features of the report control work.
 
.savesettings has not additional paramerters (where are the settings being saved?)
 
.loadsettings has a (profile as string) variable, BUT what on earth is the profile?
 
Sorry, but i could not find any documentation on this.
 
Cheers
 
Nick

Nick,

These are layout settings: each column options, GroupsOrder and header settings.
 
You can find technical details in the implementation of DoPropExcange member. For a ReportControl this member saves/loads layout settings.
 
You can use XML PropExcange, save as file and look for more details.
 
SaveSettings/LoadSettings just calls DoPropExcange for a binary PropExcange and convert binary data to a string.
 
Using these functions you can easily save/load layout as string
(and store this string in application or user profile).

Example below:




<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>


<LAYOUT CompactMode="1" ShowGroupBox="0" FreezeColumnsCount="0">


        <Columns>


                <Column ItemIndex="0" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="1" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="2" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="3" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="4" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="5" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="6" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="7" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="8" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="9" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="10" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="11" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <Column ItemIndex="12" SortIncreasing="1" Visible="1" Alignment="0" StaticWidth="50" AutoWidth="50"/>


                <GroupsOrder Count="0"/>


                <SortOrder Count="0"/>


        </Columns>


        <Header AllowColumnRemove="1" AllowColumnResize="1" AllowColumnReorder="1" AllowColumnSort="1" AutoColumnSizing="0" ShowItemsInGroups="0"/>


</LAYOUT>
