hi,

Thanks so much for your replies.


Ok, didn't know there were so many reporters availiable.

Back quite some time ago, to impress people at work i tried writing my
own classes to handle printing automatically and it drove me insane, I
just need something that will allow me to print to the printer bills,
invoices, etc from a Win forms app which uses an access database. The
data is usually just tabular and something a pie chart or graph.

Jim, is this what you were talking about??

Is there something simpler, where I don't need much (or anything) on
the client machine. Also, I really hate VB.NET! i would really like it
if was thoroughly integrated into C#, like i could just send data to
it, and would like if i could directly connect it to query my database
and display a report.

Also i saw this:

Is that only for web apps, if it is'nt then could anyone point me to a
good article or something?

Thanks so much
Gideon
