SYSK 380: How to Get Rid of Double Scroll Bar in Microsoft Report Viewer Control

  • Article

Special thanks to David Petersen who has submitted this post!

 

If you ASP.NET page that contains the Report Viewer Control, has double scroll bars, you can remove them by including two separate form elements on the page:

1. First <form> element Includes your Headers and so forth (notice the absence of runat=”server” attribute in the example below). This form can also inherit Web User Controls.

2. The second <form> element is the one that includes the Report Viewer Control, and is a server side form. This way you can dynamically populate the report viewer control in the code behind.

 

 

web.config:

 

<httpHandlers>

  <add path="Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd" verb="*" type="Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.HttpHandler, Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms,

  Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" validate="false"/>

</httpHandlers>

<buildProviders>

 <add extension=".rdlc" type="Microsoft.Reporting.RdlBuildProvider, Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,

  PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"/>

</buildProviders>

<system.webServer>

<add name="ReportViewerWebControl" path="Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd" verb="*" type="Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.HttpHandler,

Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"/>

</system.webServer>
