The power of SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services is now available for client-side reporting in Visual Studio 2005. Microsoft has added Reporting Services to VS to supersede its Crystal Reports (a Business Objects product used in almost 40,000 companies worldwide) add-in for report development. This hands-on guide takes readers step by step through the design, development, and deployment of a variety of professional reports for Windows, Web, and Mobile clients. It is the most complete single source of information on this important new feature of Visual Studio 2005. Written for all VS users writing any kind of report, Client-Side Reporting with VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005 is the only book that tells the full story of client-side Reporting Services. Its real-world examples clearly and carefully teach how to use and exploit this powerful and incresingly popular technology.
