Hi,
Today, thanks to William Kuhn, I tried to work with ReportViewer. After reading a brief tutorial I created a simple report and I like it. So far it is much easier than using Crystal Reports. So I will continue working with ReportViewer to learn how to create real reports, not just simple test one.
I wanted to ask if you think that my approach of organizing reports makes sense. I am thinking of creating a separate project for each report. And each report project will have the following:
1. typed dataset(s) report will use
2. report .rdlc file
3. form on which ReportViewer control will be dropped
4. form where user will specify report filter options (these filter options will be passed to the stored procedure to get all or sub-set of records/rows).
Another option is to place datasets in a separate project and reference it in the report project. But I am leaning toward approach where everything related to the report is in the same project.
What do you, people who created real application(s) using ReportViewer, think of the above approach?
TIA.
