I am using Visual Studio 2010 for generating reports using report viewer... As I am totally new to this, I don't know how to create an RDLC file and how to use it... Also, please tell me that what the connection is between Report Viewer and rdlc
Please help me out. Thanks
To add an RDLC report do Project > Add New Item... > Reporting > Report. You can also use the Report Wizard which is on the same screen. RDLC has a large wealth of information you will need to know about, so you will want to start digging into the documentation.
Creating Client Report Definition (.rdlc) Files
Here is the answer http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252067.aspx
To add a new report to a project
In the Project or Web Site menu, select Add New Item.
In the Add New Item dialog box, in the Installed Templates pane, select Visual Basic or Visual C#.
In the Templates pane, select Report or Report Wizard.
If you select Report, a blank .rdlc file is added to the project. For more information on how to design reports in Report Designer, see Reporting Services Reports in SQL Server Books Online.
If you select Report Wizard, the Report Wizard is started to guide you through the steps in creating a report. For more information on the Report Wizard, see Creating Client Report Definitions Using the Visual Studio Report Wizard.

I want to know how to generate reports in WPF app. I found some tutorial in MSDN. They say that i need to add new reference to
Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms, but I don't have such thing on list. I want to design report in Visual Studio and open it with code.
Go to project -> Add -> References. Then in the search bar search for Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms. This will allow you to add a report viewer which will display the form you create.
I'm using Crystal Reports (v 13.0) Wizard to create some RPT reports.
When I add a new .rpt, VS start with the Wizard. Then when the Wizard procedure ends it generates the .rpt file.
I want to know if it is possible to open again the created .rpt file with the Wizard showing the settings I made before, to be able to change them.
If I double click the .rpt file it opens inside the Report view like this:
I tried with right click on the .rpt and the .cs but I found no options like "Open with Wizard..." or so. Is it possible?
With right click on the report in design mode there are many options in the context menu: Database Expert..., Selection Expert... and so on.

Try these steps
Open the rdlc file in Visual Studio
Click on View menu
Click on Report Data
To make the window display, it's easy to find, but in a slighty different place than the usual (not under the "Other Windows" section). It is located on the View menu itself, in my case, the last option on the menu, named "Report Data".
View --> Report Data
Reference: View Report Data window in Visual Studio 2008 / SRS 2008
Thanks for your answer : but i can't see "Report Data" option in View Menu in ASP.NET
i can see this option in Windows Application in Visual Studio 2008

If I'm understanding your question correctly, then this is the answer:

The best way to embed an SSRS 2008 R2 report into a form is to deploy
the report to the report server and then use the Remote execution mode
in the Report Viewer control. The RDLC format used with local
execution mode doesn't yet support the newer RDL specifcation that is
created with Report Builder 3.0.
In VS2008, if you have an existing dataset in your project, you can add that to a new microsoft report (.rdlc file) without HAVING TO provide a datasource of any sort.
In VS2010 however, if you want to either go through the wizard, or add a dataset, you HAVE TO provide a datasource for the report to get its dataset from, is there a way to disable this?
I've found a work around in creating the rdlc in 2008 and just copying and pasting the file to a 2010 project, but that's just ridiculous.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
