What is the best way to modify report ( .rdl ) within c# winform app

[Rob Dob]

Hi,

I have several reports within my c# winform application, I need to be able
to give the user the ability to make minor modifications to some of these
reports prior to running them. Currently I am making use of both .rdl and
..rdlc reports within my application. the modifications that the user needs
to be able to make are minor, usually they just need to change some static
text within the page. What is the easist way for me to accomplish giving
the user this ability. I have researched the ssrs rebuilder but that seems
confusing,

Looking forward to your suggestions, Thanks in advance...

You can always modify the XML entry and then save the report file. Of
course, you can also add fields to your report and change them using
the report's API.

My users (and sometimes myself) are using the report builder to build
reports. I, too, was in the dark about report builder until I did the
hands-on labs in SQL Server help.
