Reporting Tool?
-
Some coworkers and I are developing some software that will need to have some sort of reporting implemented (something along the lines Crystal Reports, etc). We are trying to shy away from anything that would require our company to pay a licensing fee for releasing reports to customers. Also, a very nice to have, would be a designer that end users could fire up and drag and drop fields anywhere on the report they please, and could customize them to their heart's content. We are using SQL Server 2000 and C# 2005 if that makes any difference... Can any of you recommend some 3rd party reporting tools? Have any of you had any good or bad experiences with any reporting tools? I appreciate the input, and thanks for the help!

I'm quite happy with DevExpress's XtraReports. Marc

People who say that they will refactor their code later to make it "good" don't understand refactoring, nor the art and craft of programming. -- Josh Smith -

I dabbled in ActiveReports a few years back. Now I just output XML and use XSLT to format it as the user wants.
