Has any one used XML as a data source for writing reports in SSRS? I have a question from a potential vendor asking if XML access for reporting is acceptable.
So far I haven't been able to find a lot either in BOL or published books that really helps me answer this question.
Any thoughts, comments, or experiences in this area would be greatly appreciated.

Lynn - try this on as a starting point:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156450.aspx
Haven't much played with it, but there are some specifics there on setting up the connections, and some of the links in there show you how to build the "queries" (some hybrid type of XPATH syntax it looks like).

Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

Matt,
I'll look at it. I found another link to MSDN (haven't the foggest how, but did it through BOL somehow) that may also help.
