Report Viewer - need help

I would like to know if someone can send me a sample code on how to print a local report without previewing the data on the screen? This is a web application using .NET 2.0 and sql 2000. The client doesn't want to display the data, but send the report right to the default printer. The printer name can't be hard coded on the web.config file. The application needs to be able to read what is the default printer of the user and use that printer.

I am 99.99% sure that you cannot print directly from a web application. Here is a solution for windows application. See if you can make it to work.

I have seen this solution. However, the solution needs to have the printer name already defined on the code. I am not very clear if .NET has a library that I can use to identify the users default printer at runtime. Do you know of a library name that I can use?

Well as per my exprerinece with local reports you can not print it as you will not get print button on viewer. You will have to export it into Excel/PDF format and then you can take the print of it.

Report updates not Saving

Hi,

I have a problem when uploading changes/ new reports to the report manager. I can get to the upload file screen, I can even browse to the .rdl file that I want to upload, but then the "OK" button seems to be disabled. I cannot seem to get the Report manager to accept any new reports or changes to the old ones.

I have System Administrator access and everything was working perfectly untill about a week or two ago, no changes were made that I can see.

Please help!

Report subscription email Report Delivery Options

Is it possible to make this screen to link to exchange to i can look people's addresses up when i click on "To:" like i do in outlook.

Not out of the box. You might be able to do so by building a custom delivery extension and implementing ISubscriptionBasedUIUserControl to pull back your email addresses and pre-populate them in a combo-box you show in the Report Manager. This should work in theory, but I've never done it myself.

Report runs in the frontend but not in designer!!??

The report gives me a blank screen when I refresh the data under the design mode, but when I run it with my access tool, the data comes out fine.
The report is running on a complex query in an access database.Open the report and do verify database
