Reporting Woes (extremely simple)

I've struggled for far too long on this, hoping someone can point me in the
right direction. Created a new C# WebForm application in VS 2008. Added a
"Report". Now all I want to do is have a query on my webform that populates
a dataset. Then I want to use that DataSet to populate the report. It's
basically just a ton of rows that I want to display, nothing too
sophisticated. I can figure that all out later. Ultimately I'd like to not
use the report viewer and I want nothing to do with a "wizard". I just want
to be able to drag/drop fields from a custom query without having to add
some dataset at design time to the report. Is this even possible?

Thanks,
James

- NN 4.78 rendering woes, links at far left - I am trying to rework an old site, make it valid html and css, improving the x-browser and 'older browser' compatibility. My efforts so far, have been abysmal.

Hi My users, use ms access for querying and reporting on a backend database, however they need to replace ms access with a new reporting tool. I’m thinking of developing my own reporting engine in C# to replace the existing ms access model. Are there any c# reporting application samples that I could look at to get started?

Well so far I've been directed to Access (when I asked for a free solution), I'be also been directed to firebird. I then asked how with firebird do I create the initial database, and setup the table. So that I can go back to writting my program and having it handle the add/edit/delete/search functions. No one seems to be able to tell me, or to point me to some kind of walk through, I'm not stupid, but I also don't want to have to read...

Hi, It seems like determining element position in a web page is a difficult task. In the position reporting source code I've looked at there are special fixes for at least some versions of Safari and Opera. I am doing a lot of dragdrop experimentation and in some situations need a position reporting function. The function doesn't need to report the positions of exotic elements like images in button elements; however, I would like a...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
