creating printable reports

Rod
I want to produce some reports designed for printing. (like you can in
Access). I can't find the equivalent, what's the accepted way of achieving
something similar.

many thanks

Rod,

That is the greath difference between Access and dotNet programs.

Access is (in fact) an end user solution. VS net a programmers tool.

There are reportgenerator s from which Crystal Report is free delivered by
VS.Net.

However when I see often placed messages here, not very much liked by many
devellopers.

I hope this gives some idea's

Rod... As Cor says you can use a report writer and even embed a crystal
report in a VB.NET form. If you are looking for the ability to print
selected parts of the user data form directly to the printer, bypassing
the report writer, then you can do this with a winforms printing
framework and databound printable components such as label, textfield
and nondata printable components such as lines, page breaks etc.

Jeff

Hi, I have a situation here regarding a VB.net application. I need to convert a bunch of data to a presentable and printable format. Is there an economical (perhaps an open source third party library) and easy way to do this? (For example: may be build an XML document from the data and then convert it into PDF format.)

Hi guys, I am trying to make printable versions for some ASP.NET reports that I have. The data is in a gridview control. Does anyone know how to auto set the page orientation to Landscape, rather than having the user to manually change it everytime they try to print? Thanks R

A little rant first... I have 15+ years experience with developing software. Why is it that everything related to creating reports in .NET seems so convoluted to me? I don't want to use Crystal. I've worked with SQL Reporting Services and I'm not impressed. I've spent time looking at the new ReportViewer control and I'm not impressed. The ReportViewer seemed promising, but it is just so counterintuitive to me. What am I missing...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
