Signature.ReportControl.dll Programmers Reference
Features
- Previews / Prints a SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) Report.
- Any report parameter that is not supplied by the calling procedure will prompt for user input.
- Only uses parameters that are associated with the specific report, reducing the possibility of an error when too many parameters have been supplied.
- Each Preview method has a Print method that mirrors the parameters but prompts the user with a Print Dialog window instead of previewing the report.
- Replacement report information is stored in a database table for easy access.
- Local SSRS Reports evaluate the Query section to fill the report.
