Which part do you need help with?
I suggest you post the code you've written so far, with some notes on what isn't working.
No one's going to write the whole thing from scratch for you.

Are you running this over remote desktop, or as a service? CopyFromScreen won't work in either of these situations. It used to work in XP like that, but it was considered a security risk.

I have seen before with the date time picker, that if you don't pick a value, it will show the current date, but will actually save null to the datasource. Do you still have the problem if you change the date before saving?

It looks like the code is doing exactly what it's supposed to be doing.
What's the problem?

Do you need the ReportViewer to actually view the report, or are you just using it to export to pdf? If it is just for the export, then you can actually just create a LocalReport object and use that instead. That could speed it up a little bit.
I also just found this, which looks like it could help: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15031212/ssrs-localreport-mode-takes-a-long-time-to-render-in-pdf

That's good to hear. Yes unfortunately it probably is quite slow, as it by necessity only does one row at a time. Also I don't think it's able to optimize it by batching the commands. Is it a regular thing that you run this import, or more a one off/time to time thing?

Does the account that ASP.NET is running under have permission to access the folder with the pictures?
Also looking at the stack trace, it looks like the error is actually at the line
ppPrsn = ppApp.Presentations.Open(strTemplateFile);
Have you checked that this is receiving a valid path?

In that case I suggest having a good read of OriginalGriffs linked article. It covers what you want to do quite nicely.

Ok, and how does the sub form try to type to the textbox?

How are you opening the new form? Can you show the code used to open it.

It looks like you may be using Entity Framework, as you are loading your data into typed objects, but you haven't shown any code for saving them. You need to attach them to your context, and then call SaveChanges() on the context.

Yes it should be able to work both ways, but since existingStreet.Houses is a collection you have to .Add your house to it.
As I understood from your question, when you .Add an existing house, it is creating a duplicate house in the database.
Without seeing more of your code, I'm not sure why it would be doing that.

Member 11428137 9-Mar-15 0:41am View

Can you show the code you are using to export to pdf?
This is probably the part that is slow, but without knowing how you're doing it, it will be hard to suggest improvements.
Thanks
