  have you followed the readme file?
  

  How to register this dll in FastReport:
  ---------------------------------------
  
  You can do it in several ways:
  
  1) register using the FastReport IDE
  - open the report designer;
  - go "View|Options..." menu;
  - on the "Plugins" tab, add the FastReport.Json.dll;
  - restart FastReport. If you are working in the Visual Studio IDE, restart 
  it as well;
  
  2) edit manually the FastReport.config file
  - by default, this file is located in the "C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\
  Local Settings\Application Data\FastReport" folder;
  - close any running instances of FastReport.Net;
  - open the config file in any text editor and modify it in the following way:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <Config>
      ...
      <Plugins>
        <Plugin Name="c:\.....\FastReport.Json.dll"/>
      </Plugins>
    </Config>
  
  3) register the dll programmatically
  - add the "FastReport.Json.dll" reference to your project;
  - execute the following code once at the application start:
  FastReport.Utils.RegisteredObjects.AddConnection(typeof(JsonDataConnection));

  Was not followed step three, where do I specifically need to register JsonDataConnection?
  
  Because I run it here

          public MainWindow()
          {
              RegisteredObjects.AddConnection(typeof(JsonDataConnection));
              InitializeComponent();
          }
  

  
  the project is not compiled.

  add the "FastReport.Json.dll" reference to your project, then you can use type 'JsonDataConnection'

  The project is not yet compiled. The following message is displayed when using the code.
  
  Your application has entered an interrupt state, but there is no code to show because all threads have executed external code (usually system code or structure).

  Thanks, but for this project to create the report as you gave me in the last post, it would be difficult for future maintenances

  i deliberately not using frx file [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> after creating business object, just:[/img]

  FastReport.Report report = new FastReport.Report();
  report.RegisterData(data, "Instagram", 10);
  report.Design();

  this version doesnt need visual studio, open the frx file with designer.exe and make sure that you have Newtonsoft.Json.dll along with designer.exe in the same folder, then preview
