VB.Net and SQL Server Reporting
-
I have been tasked to write an VB.Net application with all reports to be written in SSRS. I have never done SSRS so the first questions, 1. How can I print the report straight to printer and not first browser then print. Can this be done? 2. Can you create a PDF file and not first via browser What would be the easiest and the fastest way to do these reports from VB.NET? Thanks in advance.

This blog post[^] is about the closest you're going to get. It references SSRS 2000, but should still work for 2005. The code is in C#, but is easily converted to VB.NET using any of the online conversion tools.
