Display attachment in Report from Data Linked Items

I have been able to create a report that displays a list of related records, but I do not know how to display the attached images that belong to the related records.

 

To clarify I have a point feature that has a one to many relationship to a table, and the table has related attachments. I am unable to show the related attachments in a report.

 

My guess is that I need to create a subreport within the subreport that displays the images, but I don't know how to get geocortex to do that because there is no common ID between the point feature and the attachments. Any help?

  Hi Andrew,

   

  Since attachments are arbitrary binary data, there's no built-in way to display them in a report.  The report could easily handle image data but attached PDFs or other binary formats would not work.

   

  It's possible to create a Dataset Transformer workflow that takes the data you have and adds whatever additional data you want before sending it off to the report.  However, the implementation details for creating a Dataset Transformer are pretty complicated and require a good understanding of both the RPX engine and .NET DataSet objects.

   

  This might be a lot easier in our new Reporting 5 product, I will take a look and see if I can fidn a good solution.

   

  Regards,
