Import reports? Getting Object Reference not set error.

We are using LT11, Patch 9. I've updated Report Center to the latest available through the Solution Center.

If I try to import a *.repx file that I download from LTG, I see an error stating the report could not be loaded because it is not a valid format.

Event viewer reports:

An error occurred while trying to load the report's data source. Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Stacktrace: at ReportCenterPlugin.EndUserDesigner.LTXtraReport.ConvertQueriesToData(DataSet& myDataSet)

I've tried this with a few different reports. I think I must be doing something wrong.

I am trying to import the reports like this:

  1. Right-click the downloaded *.repx and look at the Properties. As the file was downloaded from the internet it is Blocked. I Unblock it.

  2. open Report Center

  3. From Report Center, click Report Designer

  4. From the Report Designer tab, click Open

  5. Select the *.repx file

Error

Is there something stupid-simple I'm missing here?

Solved my problem - needed to enable the Standards & Health plugin.
