Report writers for VB.NET 1

[trimtrom]

Hello

I am learning VB.NET and was toying with the idea of embellishing my database program with Crystal Reports to provide some data reporting facilities.

I was put off by the cost of Crystal, however, and was wondering if there were any free or very low cost report writers that would work with VB.NET. I want to run the reports from within VB, extracting the data either from Access or SQL Server.

If anyone knows of any such report writers, I would be very grateful to hear from them.

Many thanks,

Trimtrom

Look into XtraReports by Developer Express. It's fairly inexpensive (compared to Crystal Reports) and is pretty easy to use.
