Wasn't there a report component that you could use in a VB/VB.Net app that
would allow end users to create thier own reports to save and run?

I swear I remember seeing such a thing....but I can't remember the name.....

Crystal Reports ...

Active Reports is an external (but very good library)

These have an interface you can expose to users of your app so that they can
create thier own reports?

Yes. But I believe that is a paid bit.

Sql Reporting Services is another option, I am not sure about sql reporting
services ad hoc reporting tools soemone else may know more about them in
particular.

Ljh,

Have a look at this sample. (The download is in the blue line, we are busy
with reconstructiong our website but that will give in some samples strange
effects, so we have to change it than)

You might be thinking about SQL Server 2005 reporting services.  You can
create 'models' that define tables and relationships - users then can create
reports and save them in the reporting database.

Thanks to all who posted!

I found it....."The Professional Edition of ActiveReports for .NET features
an End-User Report Designer control that allows you to host the report
designer in your own applications to provide end users with the ability to
create and modify reports."

If you want to take a look...

Thanks again!
