how to dynamically create report in web app?

Hello,
I am rather new to report service. What I want to achieve is prvide a web
page and let users to choose what fields they want to see, what table they
want to query and what formats they want to apply.
Is it something achievable? Would someone give me some tutorial or hints?
Many Thanks

hello, please helpAlthough possible it is not trivial. You need to know the RDL specification
(go to MSDN.microsoft.com and search on RDL specification, there are several
articles). Then there is the issue that this is a server based product, you
cannot change the RDL on the fly. You have to publish the RDL. With RS 2005
you can use the new controls and give the control the RDL and the dataset
(in local mode you do not even need the server). These controls come with VS
2005 (Not with SQL Server). So, check out the spec and see if this is really
something you want to tackle. Depending on the complexity you might be
better off to use XML and XSL instead.
