>Good morning listers,
>We are migrating our vfp solution (also using a sql server database) to a .net solution. Thus far we have used the mere mortals framework and have successfuly developed a form which both gets and saves data via local data as well as a wcf service. As many of you know there is no report writer like that of vfp. What are folks using as a substitute in your .net applications. Advantages and disadvantages are welcome.

Crystal Reports (which can be bundled with your VS package depending on which edition you bought) can do a decent job. Have a look at my introduction articles at http://www.emoreau.com/Entries/Articles/2006/09/Feeding-Crystal-Reports-from-your-application.aspx and http://www.emoreau.com/Entries/Articles/2006/10/Crystal-Reports--Part-II.aspx
