This example demonstrates how to programmatically update the Field List in the End-User Designer. This may be required when a data source is created and bound to a report at runtime, and isn't present in the designer host of the End-User Designer. For instance, this situation occurs when a data source is represented by a list (e.g. ArrayList), as demonstrated in the sample below.
To accomplish this task, we've introduced the FieldListDockPanel.UpdateDataSource method, which should be called after assigning a data source to a report.

Tried this sample with v13.2.8 in Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 7 32 bit VM. Menu item "Bind to a DataSource" is disabled after the app starts.
If I bypass the code in Form1_Load and don't call xrDesignPanel1.ExecCommand(ReportCommand.NewReport);, the menu item is enabled, but the code in BindReportToData() fails because xrDesignPanel1.Report is null.
Suggestions?
