printing a dataset or xml file

[Marco Martin]

Hi all,

I'm opening an xml file in c# and storing it in a dataset for use inside a
datagrid (Windows application). After, I'm going to modify and print the
data. I tried a test print of the datagrid itself and it doesn't look very
pretty. I also tried opening the file into Excel and printing it from
there. That was better but the format is really nothing much to look at.
What would be the best angle to take considering that each row may have many
child rows and that formatting will be necessary? (My boss wants it to look
pretty)

regards,

Marco

Why not use Crystal Reports that comes with .Net!
