It would be great if the control had a function to safe the current layout (columns index, sort order, grouped columns, etc) to a string.

Thanks, Italo.

There are methods to Serialize config (check XTPReportControl.h)

Thanks, but I was hoping to be able to serialize it to a string (maybe XML).

Yea, I dont understand why they didnt stick with *their* standard of saving to an XML file or registry or whatever, like docking panes or window positions.

Window positions are just a binary WINDOWPOS struct saved to the registry, not strings or xml.

What is your point?

Point was "Yea, I dont understand why they didnt stick with *their* standard of saving to an XML file or registry or whatever, like docking panes or window positions." when the only thing that really applies to is docking pane layouts as far as I can tell. Every other thing I have saved to the registry via codejock is a binary structure as far as I have seen.

They may be in binary, but they atleast give you the option to save to the registry or XML already built in. I dont see why they didnt add the same functionality to this control.

void CReportSampleView::SaveReportState()
{
CMemFile memFile;
CArchive ar (&memFile,CArchive::store);

m_wndReport.SerializeState(ar);

ar.Flush();

DWORD nBytes = (DWORD)memFile.GetPosition();
LPBYTE pData = memFile.Detach();

AfxGetApp()->WriteProfileBinary(_T("ReportControl") , _T("State"), pData, nBytes);

ar.Close();
memFile.Close();
free(pData);

}
