.NET reporting?

Is there any sort of formatted reporting (outside of just a datagrid with results of a query from a dataset) that is available within the .NET framework or is a 3rd party tool needed to do this reporting

Thanks in advance

There are no ready-to-use reporting tools included in the base class library. You'll have to roll your own using GDI+ or use a 3rd party component.

Some form of crystal reports comes with dot net but I have never used it. I find activereports to be quite good for my needs.

Hi,

There is nothing like that in the framework itself, but if you are using
VS.NET you have Crystal Reports, a VERY good tools for that. I use it all
the time and it works both in web and in win apps.

Cheers,

My team has had tremendous success with ActiveReports. It is relatively
inexpensive and has easily handled even our most complex reports.

Minor technicality, it does come as part of .net :-)

Yes, and Crystal Reports is a third party product.

We have a production database, but due to the crippling load of some reporting tools, we are looking to have a separate reporting database. Due to it's nature, the reporting database doesn't need to be as up to date as the master, perhaps it could be refreshed every evening? What I wish to know is the best way to go about this. Replicating a whole database seems excessive as there are 7000+ tables and we don't need it so closely...

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.

Does anyone know if Reporting Services is intended to work in a client/Server or Local machine environment? Based on what I have seen my guess is yes but that is a guess. In some materal it talks about it running on a web server but my supposition is that this does not necessarily mean that it would not make for a...
