Hi folks! Firstly for a FOSS product, Seal Report is amazing. Took a bit to get my head around it, but so far it's really promising. Now, I've worked through this thread and successfully "cloned" a restriction value across multiple models, and this is working great. However, I'm struggling with accessing models by ID. See below (I'm aware this is probably terrible code done badly!): Code:report.Models[1].Restrictions[0].Date1 = report.Models[0].Restrictions[0].Date1;
report.Models[2].Restrictions[0].Date1 = wc.AddDays(2);
report.Models[3].Restrictions[0].Date1 = wc.AddDays(3);
When I add new models, the ID seems to change sometimes especially if I delete one. What I would like to be able to do is something like this: Code:report.Model("Model Name").Restrictions[0].Date1 = report.Model("Other Model Name").Restrictions[0].
One thought I had was looping through all models, checking the name against a hard-coded list and setting the restriction(s) that way, using something equivalent to a MySQL CASE statement, however that just feels clunky. I've found the way to access a restriction by name using GetRestrictionByName() - is there a similar method for models? I've read through a number of posts here - learning a lot in the process - but haven't yet found a definitive answer. Any help/pointers greatly appreciated.

There is no helper to get a model by name, however you can do like this (like all other Collections): Code:var model = report.Models.FirstOrDefault(i => i.Name = "My Model Name");
if (model != null) {
}
It works for report.Sources (or any collection) as well.... Code:
var auditSource = Repository.Instance.Sources.FirstOrDefault(i => i.Name == "Audit");
auditSource = report.Sources.FirstOrDefault(i => i.Name == "Audit");

Fantastic, thank you! It's been years since I touched C# so this is all foreign to me. This works perfectly for what I need.
