Does VB.net have a report generator?

In VB6 I used the DataReport which was a part of the package.
What is the tool of the VB.net for creating and printing reports?

Hi Herfried,

Crystal Reports comes with better versions of VS.NET.


Not that important,but "better" is not the right word here I think.
Maybe completer or something.

I am not all that impressed with Crystal Reports myself. Others can bend it
to their will but on my WIN2000 machines at work it behaved quite badly.

Crystal has "Satan Inside" with new 666 technology.

Actually, it behaves pretty ok for me, I just have an irrational emotional
hatred for it. I have never liked the way that it works, the way that the
designers look, etc...

So my own personal stubborn obsessive compulsive disorder has relegated me
to subclass PrintDocument whenever I need to print something. (Which isn't
often, thank God)

CrystalReports. NET is included with professional and higher versions of
Visual Studio.NET and Visual Basic.NET.. it is a very flexable report
generator.. one of the best in the market. but keep in mind, the one in
VS.NET and VB.NET thats included, is not the same thing as you would get if
you actually bought Crystal Reports from Segate software, its similar but
not totaly...

CR seems to be "buggy", but it ships with some versions of VS.NET, that's
the advantage.
