Scott,

Have you looked at the Devx article "Creating Custom Data Extensions for SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services"? The URL is http://www.devx.com/codemag/Article/21569

Let me know what you think.

Thanks

Rex

>Yeah, me too. As it stands right now tying Reporting Services to any "externally" created .net dataset is not a feature inherently supported by SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services. That being said, and since it has an open architecture, you can extend it yourself (with a considerable about of custom code) to be able to do this. When I evaluated this same situation I decided not to do it for the following reasons. First it IS a considerable amount of code. Second, MS has indicated that this feature will be implemented soon (yeah, I know...). Third, we were able to obtain the benefits of using Business Objects by putting the SQL in a stored procedure and having both the MM BO and Reporting Services use that to access the data.
