[RESOLVED] Pls. Help with DataReport1 - "Invalid Data Source"

Hello Everyone,

Im trying to to assign a value, lets say "This is my text", to a label1 on my
datareport1, and it raised an error "Invalid Data Source"...

my code here

Code:

---

DataReport1.Sections("Section2").Controls("Label1").Caption = "This is my Text"

---

even this also raised the same error

Code:

---

DataReport1.Sections("Section2").Controls("Label1").Caption = form1.Label1.Caption

---

How could i change the caption of Label1 in DataReport1 at runtime???

No, I dont want that DataReport1.DataSource be assign to any database, i only want that Label1.Caption, or any controls therein to be change at runtime, is that possible?

Thank you for any reply...

Are you sure its a label and not a textbox? Did you set the labels before opening the report?

Yap, im sure its a Label, and i put it already on the datareport before opening it...

Are you referencing an instance of the report, or the report itself?

Im referencing an object on the DataReport1 which is Label1(RptLabel) which is on Page Header(Section2) and want to change its caption during runtime...

Did you do this?

Code:

---

Dim repRef As MyDateReport1
  Set repRef = New MyDataReport1

---

That ensures your working with an unopened data report. http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...ataenvironment

Or did you reference MyDataReport1 directly?

I usually do in the datareport_initialize event.

Code:

---

rptAdjust_Invoices.Sections("Invtemp_Header").Controls.Item("lblCsz").Caption = "some text"

---

Did you notoce the syntax is different than yours? Text boxes and labels are different in the way you assign data.

Ok, Thank you guys, i figure it now...
