I was able to resolve this. I needed to set the parameters somewhat manually. See the full transformation code:
<%@ Register Src="~/CMSModules/Reporting/Controls/ReportGraph.ascx" TagName="ReportGraph" TagPrefix="cms" %>
<script runat="server">
/// Manually set the report xml parameters and definition
protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string reportXmlData = "<NewDataSet> <Table1> <SchoolYear>" + EvalText("SchoolYear") + "</SchoolYear> <SchoolType>" + CMS.CMSHelper.CMSContext.CurrentResolver.ResolveMacros("{%SchoolType%}") + "</SchoolType> <School>" + EvalText("School") + "</School> </Table1></NewDataSet>";
System.Text.StringBuilder reportXmlDefinition = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
reportXmlDefinition.Append("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-16\"?>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:schema id=\"NewDataSet\" xmlns=\"\" xmlns:xs=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:msdata=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata\">");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:element name=\"NewDataSet\" msdata:IsDataSet=\"true\" msdata:UseCurrentLocale=\"true\">");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:complexType>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:choice minOccurs=\"0\" maxOccurs=\"unbounded\">");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:element name=\"Table1\">");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:complexType>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:sequence>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:element name=\"SchoolYear\" type=\"xs:string\" minOccurs=\"0\" />");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:element name=\"SchoolType\" type=\"xs:string\" minOccurs=\"0\" />");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" <xs:element name=\"School\" type=\"xs:string\" minOccurs=\"0\" />");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" </xs:sequence>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" </xs:complexType>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" </xs:element>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" </xs:choice>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" </xs:complexType>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" </xs:element>");
reportXmlDefinition.Append(" </xs:schema>");
rpt1.LoadDefaultParameters(reportXmlData, reportXmlDefinition.ToString());
}
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
rpt1.ReloadData(true);
}
</script>
