Report Expressions in Visual Basic and Managed Code
Webinar Recording Price: 999.00 (U.S. Dollars) -
SUMMARY
This series of training webinars is designed to help report developers learn how to write efficient and sharable Reporting Services Report Definition Language (RDL) expressions in Visual Basic and other .NET managed code languages (such as C#). Virtually all reports contain expressions of one kind or another. Expressions are what make reports more efficient, more focused, more interesting and more interactive. These fast-paced webinars are presented in three parts-each followed by a hands-on and instructor-mentored set of laboratory exercises that challenge each student to implement what they have learned. Benefits of this exclusive webinar training series include:
- Easy-to-understand instruction delivered to a limited number of students.
- Up-to-date information on the latest Reporting Services technology as well as pragmatic methods, tips and techniques that work with all versions of Reporting Services.
- An in-depth discussion of creating and sharing code-driven expressions-content that's not available online or in the Microsoft documentation.
- Personalized attention from industry-expert William Vaughn and the opportunity to ask questions throughout the sessions.
- Easy-access to session recordings immediately after each webinar
-
PROGRAM BENEFITS
These sessions are for software developers, report DBAs, architects and their managers who specify, design, code, assemble, test, deploy, support, update and work with business applications that and develop and manage Business Intelligence solutions leveraging Reporting Services' RDL technology. They are specially designed for developers not familiar with Visual Basic, building and tuning report expressions and more sophisticated techniques that must be implemented to share report expression code between report development team members.
