Fillable Comment Fields

  • HELP...

    Does anyone know of a way to create fillable fields within a report to allow users to add comments regarding the report results.

    Basically - the user will filter the results which will be pulled from Datasource and then there will be a 'textbox' which allows the user to add comments on the results. Is this possible?

    I don't want to spend hours looking for code on something that will never work.

    Thanks ahead of time... 😉

  • Unless fillable means "I have a blank spot after I print that I can write on", then - no.

    Reports are not data-entry mechanisms. What you're looking for would be a form or some kind of "repeater" object in .NET.

    Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

  • you could create a string-parameter that fills in to the Report.Downside: you need to run the report twice.

    or

    you could just leave a placeholder and take the detour through excel...

    Both solutions are not beautiful though... 😉
