#Remarks

The ReportOpening event enables you to perform required actions before a report is opened in the Web Report Designer. When implementing a handling function, use the objects passed as parameters. The first parameter passes the event sender that is the ClientReportDesigner object. The second one is an object with the following structure.

  • Url
    The URL of the report currently being processed.

  • Report
    The report currently being processed.

  • Cancel
    Specifies whether to cancel opening the report.

The code sample below demonstrates how to use this event to prohibit opening reports with URLs containing a specific substring.
