  Hello,
  
  Just put the PictureObject on your report page, invoke its editor and load the image in it.
  
  The email functionality is working in Windows.Forms now. I need to fix something to make it working in ASP.Net.

  Set the PictureObject.ImageLocation property to either URL or file path.

  Hello,
  
  It's not easy to fix; probably we will add this feature in the next major version.

  Dear AlexTZ,
  
  It is possible to email the .pdf report without dispaly the report (only generate the .pdf) and save automatically in default path without prompt the user to save this .pdf file and send this file as email attachment. (Separately by using button click )
  
  How can we achieve.

  To do this, you don't need WebReport component. You may write the following code in the button.Click handler:
  

  using (Report report = new Report())
  {
    report.Load(filename);
    report.RegisterData(...);
    report.Prepare();
  
    EmailExport email = new EmailExport();
    // set properties of email.Account here...
    // ...
  
    // the email
    email.Address = "john@url.com";
    email.Subject = "report for you";
    email.MessageBody = "Hi John!";
  
    // email the report as a PDF
    PDFExport pdfExport = new PDFExport();
    // you may set some options of pdfExport here...
    // ...
    email.Export = pdfExport;
  
    // send an email
    email.SendEmail(report);
  }

  Hi AlexTZ
  
  i have an error generating a PDF and then sending it by email. That's what the page says:
  
  Source Error:
  
  Line 58: Dim ElPDFExport As PDFExport = New PDFExport
  Line 59: ElEMailExport.Export = ElPDFExport
  Line 60: ElEMailExport.SendEmail(ElReport)

  Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:4.0.30319; ASP.NET Version:4.0.30319.1
  
  The code is very similar at your post:
  

      Protected Sub ImageButton1_Click(............) Handles ImageButton1.Click
  
          Dim ElReport = New Report
  
          ElReport.Load(Server.MapPath("mail.frx"))
  
          Dim UnDataset = New System.Data.DataSet
          ElReport.RegisterData(UnDataset)
  
          REM ElReport.SetParameterValue("NMDbConnectionString", "Data Source=SERVER1\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=;Initial Catalog=capdb;Integrated Security=True;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=;Password=")
          ElReport.Prepare()
  
          Dim ElEMailExport As EmailExport = New EmailExport
          ElEMailExport.Address = "xxx@xxxx.com"
          ElEMailExport.Subject = "ORDER "
          ElEMailExport.MessageBody = "ORDER
  
  Please take notice of the attached order.
  
  Kind Regards"
  
          Dim ElPDFExport As PDFExport = New PDFExport
          ElEMailExport.Export = ElPDFExport
  
          ElEMailExport.SendEmail(ElReport)
  

  
  I'm using Visual Studio 2010 with VB and FastReports.NET Demo 1.5.29 i'm evaluating it, in order to buy a license.
  
  Thanks in advance !
