ComponentOne ReportViewer for ASP.NET AJAX: Working with C1ReportDesigner > Managing Report Definition Files

Managing Report Definition Files

A report definition file may contain several reports. Occasionally, you may want to copy or move a report from one file to another.

To move a report from one file to another, open two instances of the C1ReportDesigner application and drag the report from one instance to the other. If you hold down the CTRL key while doing this, the report will be copied. Otherwise, it will be moved.

You can also copy a report within a single file. This creates a new copy of the report, which is a good way to start designing a new report that is similar to an existing one.

Note that the report definition files are saved in XML, so you can also edit and maintain them using any text editor.
