Hi Alex,

How to disable the save as menu option at runtime?

Try this code

FastReport.EnvironmentSettings frsetting = new FastReport.EnvironmentSettings();
frsetting.DesignerSettings.Restrictions.DontSaveReport = true;

// for test 
// FastReport.Report report = new FastReport.Report();

Hi,

The above code disables the save and save as menu items.

But I want to disable only the " Save as " menu item.

Any ideas ?

Also I have another doubt. If I load a report from a database, modify it and then click save, will the report be saved in the respective database ?

1)
This code will make " Save as" menu inactive ..... NOT disable

by adding a custom code , for the "save", "save as" menu

// call this before load your report 
private void InitSettings ()
{
       EnvironmentSettings FastReportSetting = new EnvironmentSettings();

        FastReportSetting.DatabaseLogin += new DatabaseLoginEventHandler(FastReportSetting_DatabaseLogin);
        FastReportSetting.CustomSaveDialog += new FastReport.Design.OpenSaveDialogEventHandler(FastReportSetting_CustomSaveDialog);
        FastReportSetting.CustomSaveReport += new FastReport.Design.OpenSaveReportEventHandler(FastReportSetting_CustomSaveReport);
}


// put this any where in your form , or you class
 private static void FastReportSetting_CustomSaveReport(object sender, FastReport.Design.OpenSaveReportEventArgs e)
    {
        // e.Report.Save(e.FileName);
       // add your code to save report to database 
    }

    private static void FastReportSetting_CustomSaveDialog(object sender, FastReport.Design.OpenSaveDialogEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Cancel = true;  
    }
//------------------------

2) NO the saved report will not saved back to database , you need to add some code for doing that ...
Like : convert report to string, o stream , and update the database through "FastReportSetting_CustomSaveReport" function in the previous code


Hope this help

Hi,

Thanks. I will give it a try and reply back.

One more doubt.

Is it possible to hide the code window in the designer?


(I don't want my users to alter the code or even view it.)

Hello,

No, it's not possible.

Hi Alex,

That's very disappointing.

Is there any work around?

I need to add some flags to do this. I'll let you know when it will be ready.
