  How to upgrade AR-6 to AR-15.1
  
  

  I used VS2017 Community Edition and now I used ActiveReports 15.1

  What I have done Are :

  1. Firstly i tried to used Convert tool from menu Tools - Convert to ActiveReport 15. But nothing happend ( No response)

  2. I have removed all old library of AR6 from References, and i added the new library of AR15, as you can see in the image attached, Error Logs :

  • Event “DataInitialize” cannot be found
  • Event “ReportStart” cannot be found
  • Event “Format” cannot be found
  • PageSetting is not member of bla…bla…

  3. File Reports have changed and now can not be open in mode designer.
     
     

  How to solve these ?

  Hello,

  1. Firstly i tried to used Convert tool from menu Tools - Convert to ActiveReport 15. But nothing happened
     
     Can you try after installing the latest version 15.1.7 from the following link:
     
     https://www.grapecity.com/activereportsnet/download

  Make sure that you have replaced all old references of AR6 and add the AR15 reference from the Nuget Package:
  
  https://www.grapecity.com/activereportsnet/docs/v15/online/manage-activereports-dependencies.html

  Please replace the old namespace of AR6 with AR15 in your code. Also, change the FW of your application to 4.6.2 or higher version as AR15 only support 4.6.2 or higher .net version.

  Thanks,
