Hi,

ReportDocument r = new ReportDocument( );
r.Load( reportURL );
// set the parameters/ the datasource, etc,etc
r.SetDataSource( GetaDataSet() );
r.ExportToDisk( ExportTypeFormat.PortableDocFormat , "path to file );

Thank U very mutch Ignacio and this code is working fine but I didn't using
the " r.SetDataSource( GetaDataSet() );" line of code because I don't know
what it does!!?
So does it add a new data to my Report file!!?

That line of code, that cited Ignacio, just bind your data to report to show
report content.
SetDataSource can take different data sources, including DataSet.
See MSDN for more details about this method

Hi,

a little hint!

I had on some customer-pcs problems with this ExportToDisk(). Sometimes
i got error messages, that a process can´t start in the background.

After exporting the reports in a MemoryWriter and writing this stream to
a file, the problems a gone.

This bit of code is good if I already have the report, do U know how can I
generate a new report with a name of my choice and set its parameters!!!?
