Environment

Product	Progress® Telerik® Reporting
Report Viewer	Silverlight

The Silverlight Report Viewer and its WCF Reporting Service are no longer supported and deployed with the installation of Telerik Reporting. The last release of Telerik Reporting with included Silverlight Report Viewer is R1 2023.

Description

One cannot use the report name or specify a default file name when exporting from the Silverlight report viewer.

Solution

By design, the Report.DocumentName property is used as a default file name for all exported files from the Telerik report viewers.

However, in Silverlight the SaveFileDialog.DefaultFileName setting is treated as security vulnerability. Thus, the DefaultFileName is only applied for trusted applications.
