Hi Everyone
I'm glad I found this book Learning SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 By Jayaram Krishnaswamy
and his websites/blogs which was a saviour along with the link below.
This CODEPLEX site is also one of the best sites I have found.
It seems ReportViewer is something NOT widely in use or well documented as I am discovering.
I was given the task of migrating our reports (*.rdl) off our Report Server and onto the same server where the web app is running ( converting the *.rdl to *.rdlc )
(1) I havent been able to find anything explaining how to access and reference multiple reports without hardcoding them as shown here:
http://forums.asp.net/t/1472608.aspx
Other websites and references just illustrate a single report or worse created a new report.
(2) I'm trying to convert about 50 existing .rdl files to *.rdlc and migrate from SSRS to ReportViewer and not finding many cases, examples, documentation.
Is there a utility to convert to .rdl to .rdlc for this ?
(3) Report parameters: Can it dynamically code for the parms or do we have to code for each report individually as indicated on the same website mentioned above.
These questions I have and many predecessors had also.
Any ideas, references would be deeply appreciated
