I'm trying to create reports within my vb.net application. I want to be able to bind the report at runtime and pass parameters from textboxes etc on a form. I have searched all over the place and can't seem to get a clear example of how to do this. I can get the report viewer to work by binding the report within the app but I would like to do this at runtime. does anyone have some sample code I can go off ?

Thanks in advance

 
Are you trying to use Server Side reports or is the report local to the app?

Will this not work?
Bear with the sample. It's snip-its from our Reporting Class that is also a wrapper for displaying reports.

Code:
        Private ParamLisings As Generic.List(Of Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportParameter) = Nothing
    
    If ParamLisings Is Nothing Then ParamLisings = New Generic.List(Of Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportParameter)()
    ParamLisings.Add(New Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportParameter(ParamName, ParamValue, ParamVisible))

    FrmRpt.ListParams = ParamLisings
    FrmRpt.Show()
