Hi,



I have recently been assigned to make the RMS sales reports accessible on the Web using ASP.Net. How can I use the Report Template Language Definition Files to make the same reports in the same format along with the associated filters available on the web for the managers to view Sales reports and other stuff. Has anybody done this before. I don't want to reinvnet the wheele. Otherwise I will have to do further research and recreate the reports using SQL Server Reporting Services, which will take a lot of time.



Thanks in advance,

Reporting services will be faster if you want to run reports dynamically. If you just want to provide Static reports, you can export the reports as HTML and publish them. The reports are defined in a text format that's based on SQL - if you know SQL,open up one of the QRP files and you will easily see how the RMS report engine is getting it's data. The reports are displayed and get all of the cool drag and drop formatting from an internal viewer, which you would have to recreate - Reporting Services will be much much faster...
