Quickly create, edit, preview, load, and save report definition files without writing a single line of code. The familiar Microsoft Access-like user interface of the C1ReportDesigner application yields fast adaptation.
You don’t have to be an expert to create reports using the C1Report Wizard. Effortlessly create a new report from start to finish in five easy steps. Select the data source, report fields, and layout of your report with the C1Report Wizard guiding you through each step.
Reports uses a banded report model based on groups, sections, and fields. The banded report model allows for a highly-organized report layout.
The enhanced report designer application now includes 34 report templates. Simply select a report theme in the C1Report Wizard and you get a professionally styled report. No coding required - your colorful report is just a click away!
Render reports directly to a printer or preview control, or export to various portable formats including Microsoft Exce (XLS, XLSX), PDF, HTML, rich text, and more.
With the click of a button, import Access report files (MDB) and Crystal report files (RPT) using the C1ReportDesigner application. C1Reports supports features found in Microsoft Access and Crystal Reports.
Specify a connection string and an SQL statement in your report definition and Reports will load the data automatically for you. Optionally, use XML files, custom collections, and other data sources.
Reports may contain parameterized queries, allowing users to customize the report by adding/limiting the data that should be included in the report before it is rendered. Specify a value for a report field, filter data, control sorting and grouping, and more. Display only necessary data using report parameters.
Reports may contain nested reports to arbitrary levels (subreports). You can use the main report to show detailed information and use subreports to show summary data at the beginning of each group.
Reports may include embedded VBScript event handlers, making them self contained. Format fields according to value, update a page count, hide a section without data, and more when the report is rendered.
Use VBScript expressions to retrieve, calculate, display, group, filter, sort, parameterize, and format the contents of a report, including extensions for aggregate expressions (sum, max, average, and more).
Embed charts into your reports to graphically display numerical data. The Report's Chart field is implemented using the C1Chart control and can display multiple series of data. The supported chart types include Bar, Area, Scatter, Pie, Line and Column.
Create charts that automatically aggregate data values (ValueY) that have the same category (ValueX) using an aggregate function of your choice. The chart field's Aggregate property tells the chart how to aggregate values that have the same category into a single point in the chart. It can be set to perform any of the common aggregation functions on the data: sum, average, count, maximum, minimum, standard deviation, and variance.
With the new mapping report field you can add visual maps to your reports. The custom C1Maps report field is powered by ComponentOne Maps for WPF, and gives you new ways to visualize your bound report data.
Automate reports using the C1ReportsScheduler, a a stand-alone application used to schedule report creation to run in the background. Using the C1ReportsScheduler application, you can choose what reports to export or print, formats to export the report to, and the schedule and frequency for creating reports.

The C1RdlReport component exposes the full RDL object model following the latest 2008 specifications. This allows you to modify existing reports or even create new RDL reports completely in code. This is not possible through Microsoft Reporting Services alone.
You are not constrained to using SQL Server data as your data source. C1RdlReport can generate RDL reports using any data source, such as an Access database.
C1RdlReport provides a self-contained RDL reporting solution without external dependencies such as the need for a Microsoft Reporting Services server.
C1RdlReport provides seamless integration with the entire ComponentOne Reports suite. Use C1RdlReport with C1PrintPreviewControl to provide previewing, formatting, printing and exporting functionality for your reports.
C1RdlReport supports most of the common Microsoft reporting features such as subreports, parameters, hyperlinks, charts, shapes, images, textboxes and more.
Integrated C1PrintPreviewControl and C1PrintPreviewDialog controls provide a ready-to-use full-featured UI with thumbnail and outline views, text search and predefined toolbars right out of the box. Toolbar commands include: Open/Save File Page Setup Print Reflow Zoom In/Out Tools Page Navigation (First, Previous, Next, Last) Previous/Next Views Page Views (Single, Continuous, Facing) Hand Tool Text Select Tool Find Text
Easily integrate Reports with Reports for WinForms to add previewing, formatting, printing and exporting functionality to your reports. Just set the Document property on the C1PrintPreviewControl or C1PreviewPane to your reporting control and you are finished.
In addition to the ComponentOne Reporting controls, Reports supports the standard .NET PrintDocument component, and can even export to a number of external formats (such as PDF). So you can easily upgrade your applications with minimal effort.
Reports includes built-in thumbnail views of all pages within any rendered document. The thumbnail view allows quick navigation to any page. Thumbnails are generated on the fly as pages are created so you instantly get thumbnails even if all pages have not finished rendering. Use the separate C1PreviewThumbnailView control and attach it to a C1PreviewPane, or just use the all-inclusive C1PrintPreviewControl to display automatic thumbnail views.
End-users can interactively change the document (for example change page margins or orientation) at run time and the document will automatically reflow to accommodate the changes.
Perform text searching at run-time without any additional coding. The C1PrintPreviewControl includes a built-in text search panel. Search results include page numbers and link to found locations.
Choose from several preset toolbar image collections, or choose your own. The C1PrintPreviewControl includes themes to match Adobe, XP, Classic Windows, and the Mac operating system.
Reports supports many different zooming options that you would find in Microsoft Word. Predefined views include: actual size, page width, text width and whole page. You can also use percentages to define a specific zoom value. The C1PrintPreviewControl also has a zoom-in and zoom-out tool which allows the user to specify where on the the page to zoom in or out.
All preview controls fully support the C1PrintDocument component's features such as hyperlinks and outlines.
Reports includes extensive design-time support, including ComponentOne SmartDesigner® technology with floating toolbars, allowing you to easily customize your preview window without writing code.
Use the separate, specialized controls (preview pane, thumbnail and outline views, text search panel) to customize your document view. Combine Reports controls with other Studio for WinForms controls such as Ribbon for WinForms to create a custom preview window that fits any UI.
Create localized versions of all end-user visible strings for different cultures at design time and switch between languages at run time.
Documents can be completely created in code, or bound to a database via a powerful and flexible data binding model.
Document element size and position can be specified as absolute values, relative to other elements’ sizes and positions, or as simple expressions combining absolute and relative values. For example, specify the width of an element as a percentage of the parent element or of the current page width.
Use the C1PrintDocument tables to layout elements in your documents. Apply styles to tables, modify row and column headers, and more. Tables support an Excel-like object model, with a logically infinite number of columns and rows. Simply accessing a table element instantiates it, so you never have to worry about specifying the correct table size.
Create complex hierarchical documents with rich formatting, automatic word index, TOC generation, data binding, and more with C1PrintDocument. The C1PrintDocument component provides a powerful document object model with automatic layout, formatting, and pagination control features so there's no need to manually calculate the layout, insert page breaks, and so on.
Control the look of your document with support for paragraphs of text with multiple fonts, text and background colors, text positioning (subscript, superscript), inline images, various text alignment (including justified text), and more.
C1PrintDocument supports automated generation of Table of Contents (TOC) and alphabetical word index. Depending on your output format, links in both the TOC and index are clickable and take the user to the referenced page.
Make documents interactive by adding hyperlinks, link targets, and more. Any document element can be a hyperlink, or a hyperlink jump target.
Combine C1PrintDocument with the powerful C1Report component, which exposes a rich object model for creating, customizing, loading, and saving report definitions. You can quickly import and generate report definitions with the C1PrintDocument component.
Report Definition Language (RDL) is the reporting scheme commonly used in SQL Server Reporting Services. C1PrintDocument allows you to import an SSRS definition file (.rdl). The result is a databound document representation of the imported report.
Multiple export format options make saving and sharing documents easy. Export your documents to Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF), Excel (XLS and XLSX), Word (RTF and DOCX), HTML, and several image formats.
Documents can include interactive forms (to be filled out by the end user). Add text boxes, list boxes, drop-down lists, check, radio and push buttons to C1PrintDocument. These controls become interactive when viewed inside C1PrintPreviewControl (see Print Preview). You can also export these documents to Adobe Acroforms.
You can control how an exported PDF file is displayed in Adobe Acrobat. For example, set the how pages are viewed (for instance, one page at a time or two pages in columns) and the visibility of various elements (that is, if thumbnail images or a document outline view is visible).
A new OPC-based file format for C1PrintDocument objects, C1D OpenXML (C1DX) complies with Microsoft Open Packaging Conventions and is similar to the Microsoft Office 2007 OpenXML format. Due to built-in compression, resulting files are smaller in size. The current Preview for WinForms C1D format is also fully supported for backwards compatibility.
Several page layouts accommodating different paper sizes, page settings, number of columns, page headers, and so on can be predefined and selected at run time by setting a single property.
Use C1MultiDocument to combine multiple C1PrintDocuments which will be rendered as a whole continuous document with shared page numbering, a common TOC, word index, page count and inter-document hyperlinks. This allows you to create and export very large documents that cannot be handled by a single C1PrintDocument object due to memory limitations.
Hierarchical styles control the look of all document elements, with intelligent support for ambient and non-ambient style attributes. Specify individual font attributes (such as boldness or font size), table grid lines, and more.
By setting one property you can render text using the GDI+ text API – with GDI+ text rendering text looks similar to text in Microsoft Office 2007 and matches the default text layout in XPS.
Embed fonts to guarantee text is rendered correctly on any system – even if the fonts used are not installed on the system used to preview or print the document.
