XRDesignPanel.SaveReport(String) Method

SECURITY-RELATED CONSIDERATIONS

Using file paths sourced from untrusted input may expose unauthorized files or allow unintended file access. Always validate and normalize all external paths to prevent path manipulation.

Saves the definition of the report currently open in the XRDesignPanel to the specified file.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraReports.UserDesigner

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraReports.v25.2.Extensions.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Reporting

Declaration

C#

public void SaveReport(
    string fileName
)

VB.NET

Public Sub SaveReport(
    fileName As String
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
fileName	String	A String value specifying the file name.

Remarks

This method saves a report’s definition to an REPX file in the same way as the XtraReport.SaveLayout method does.

Note that the SaveReport method is useful to save a file silently (without any prompt to a user). And, if the fileName parameter is set to an invalid path, this method invokes the XRDesignPanel.SaveReportAs method.
