Hello here, I'd like to populate a datagrid in my asp.net app and create a report from the data in the grid. Has anyone done something like this or do you have an idea as to what direction I should go to make this happen?
Thanks in advance.

I do not know what kind of the report you want to create. There are plenty link in the interent. If you more specify, It will more easy for other people.

Perhaps I wasn't clear, I already have my project with a datagrid, this I can do no problem. What I need to do is to use the data grid as my dataset for a report.

Report Services runs off a SQL Server database. I'm not sure you can use the datagrid as your datasource. Maybe you can export your data from your datagrid into a database table, then run the report off that table? Just a thought.

I've used the Report Viewer control before but still I'm not sure how to use my populated datagrid as my datasource. Any help would be appreciated.

why not just use the SQL statement you use to populate your report to populate your data grid?

fkearney,

That's actually the direction I'm going in now. I'll save the query in a session variable and reuse it. I initially wanted to see if there was a better way to reuse the existing dataset for performance reasons but I think that may just be complicating things.
