ReportServiceController.ShowPreview(String, CriteriaOperator, SortProperty[]) Method

Displays the Preview Report window.

Namespace: DevExpress.ExpressApp.ReportsV2

Assembly: DevExpress.ExpressApp.ReportsV2.v18.2.dll

public void ShowPreview(
    string reportContainerHandle,
    CriteriaOperator criteria,
    SortProperty[] sortProperty
)

Public Sub ShowPreview(
    reportContainerHandle As String,
    criteria As CriteriaOperator,
    sortProperty As SortProperty()
)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	reportContainerHandle	Gets the handle of the ReportContainer object.
CriteriaOperator	criteria	A CriteriaOperator object used to filter data.
SortProperty[]	sortProperty	An array of SortProperty objects which specifies data sorting.

An example of using this method is provided in the Invoke the Report Preview from Code topic.

The ShowPreview method throws an InvalidCastException if you use a custom data source that does not support the ISupportSorting interface. In this instance, use the ReportDataSourceHelper.CustomSetSorting event to specify sorting.
