Hello,

I'm looking for a good screen report free library for C#. Since my
schedule to have it working is not very long and there are numerous
solutions over the 'Net, I would like to start with the best solution
to earn some time, so any advice would be very welcome.

I need to build a very simple report, nothing fancy. Just simple
appearance, no need to gorgeous looking (although I wount refuse
that) ... The ability to build some tables and put some text and
numbers, showing on the screen on a form and the ability to print it.

Also simple to use/program.

Thanks!

Just use Crystal Report
 
Hi,



Just use Crystal Report

If using SQL server then he could look into SQL Report Builder / SQL
Reporting Services. I think they are bundled with most version of SQL
these days.
 
if you are already using Sql server 2005, sql server 2005 reporting services
is pretty good.
 
You don't need a db to use Sql Report viewer control in VS. You can use
objects, xml, local db, remote db, csv, etc, etc.
Can do reports and charts and make them look really good.

| Hi,
|
| I wouldn't want to use Crystal Report for some reasons (required
| instalation on every computer that will show the report, for example)
| and I don't have the data stored on a SQL or similar DB.
|
| I really want something simple... Like this I found in the meantime :

| If you know something better/similar and also simple, please tell me.
| Thanks
