Intelligent Report Viewer Question

Good Morning,

I have a dumb question. I'm used to working in the VS.NET 2003 environment (C#), and I'm getting into some reporting services stuff for a new client.

Ideally, they'd like to be able to do some code specific stuff with their reports, like only allowing parameters to be changed by certain Active Directory groups, etc...

Ultimately, I'd like to combine C# logic with report viewing capability.

Here's my question: Can I use C# and vanilla web forms with the ReportViewer control to display reports on them?

Thanks in advance for your replies!

Yes you can. To do what mention you'd want control the parameter rendering manually rather than having RS render the parameter toolbar.

You want to look into displaying the report using URL access to the report server vs rendering the report using the web service API. The API gives you all the information you need about the report to perform your own logic.
