Hi Itzik ,

Thanks for your post.

ReportViewer inherits from System.Windows.Forms.Control class, and Control
has a RightToLeft property, so we can use this property to support right to
left language. For more information, please refer to the link below:

oleft.aspx

Hope this helps

Sorry but I already tried that, but the table flow is still from left to
right

You can try it, create a form set its right to left ot yes The dock into it
a report viewer than add areport with a table (put 3 columns in it) Than
start the program you would see that the table flow is left to right.

What can id?

Hi Itzik ,

Thanks for your feedback.

We should set ReportViewer's RightToLeft property to yes, not its parent
Form's RightToLeft property.

In my VS2005, if I add a ReportViewer control and set ReportViewer's
RightToLeft property to yes, I can see the text to be right aligned, also
the control layout reflect to be right to left, so was the vertical
scrollbar.

hello Jeffrey

thank you very much for still answering my post, but...
can you please send me the simple solution that you created since we cannot
reproduce this in our company...

I set the reportviewer RightToLeft Property to yes (with or without his form
parent)
But the layout of the Table, Matrix or any other control placed on the
report is left to right, we event downloaded the examples from the
gotreportviewer.com and tried to make them a right to left flow, but without
succeeding.

Please if you can send me the solution send it to this email:
rocksrabbit@gmail.com

Thank you again
