I have a windows form that contains a datagridview containing
manipulated data from various sources (numerous sql servers + xml
files). I now need to create a report from the data in the
datagridview.
Do I need to convert the datagridview into something else (dataset?)
or should I have put the data into a dataset in the first place.
Assuming I can create a 'Data Source' from my data, can you advise me
on how to launch a report from a windows form?
Any advice/suggestions gratefully received.

DataGridView is a display only component, it does not inherently provide
reporting features.

What sort of report do you require? Raw data? Formatted reports?
If you want formatted reports, you'll need to use a reporting tool such as
Crystal, Reporting Services, ActiveReports, etc.

Yes, I do want to use a formatted report such as crystal - so how can
I get the data from a Datagridview into crystal?
That's where I'm stuck.

What is your underlying datasource? What datasource are you manipulating?
You'll have to pass that datasource to Crystal - i.e. a SQL string, a
dataset, etc.

Unless the DataGridView is unbound, the data is stored in whatever the
grid is bound to - DataTable, BindingList, etc. It is that source
that you want to use as the source for printing. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

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,...
