Hi all.

I have created some reports in my windows application by giving them a dataset and from database.

I heard some programes sayng that there is an opportunity to create reports in runtime usin sql server.

So...can I do something like this:

Design a rdlc file(using a temporary dataset, just for my needs) and then add the xml code of rdl file in a table in database and then when I want to generate reports I will use the xml code from databse then I will set the datasource name to that xml file and in this way to create a report in runtime.

I know that it is possible to do something like that but I don`t know how(I couldn`t find anything even in google).

Does anyone did know how to do and help me anyway?

Thank you.

That all seems terribly - inefficient, right? Reports are just standardized ways of displaying data, right? You pull data -> you show data. What would be the benefit of trying to create the same report, each time, on the fly for the same data structure?
