Creating Reports with SQL Reporting Service and Visual Studio .NET

Reporting service is basically a reporting server that uses SQL server as its backend database. All reports are deployed on the reporting server and from there, you can access any reports provided you have the correct permissions to access them. The basic idea is to have a single location where all reports are deployed, thereby providing a single point of access. This creates a very flexible environment to deploy your reports over the enterprise. The idea is very similar to Crystal Reports Enterprise Reporting.

I came across a very nice link that helped me understand how to create a report using Sql Reporting services and also accessing them through an ASP.Net application.

Please visit this link:  http://www.codeproject.com/KB/reporting-services/AHCreatRepsAspNet.aspx to know more about it.
