In this session, you’ll learn how to programmatically manipulate SQL Server 2005 and 2008 Reporting Services (SSRS) and integrate SSRS into your ASP.NET applications by employing URL Access, Report Viewer controls, and the Reporting Services Web Services. A major issue with SSRS is that you can normally only display reports using Internet Explorer, but in this session you’ll discover how to integrate SSRS into your applications using any modern browser, including Firefox, Netscape, and Safari. Finally, you’ll learn how to extend reporting services by calling custom .NET assemblies from your SSRS reports.
