How to print a report

[Tina]

I've been reading through the choppy SSRS books online for hours and can't
find a single example of how to print a report from one of my .aspx pages.
Once I have created a Report, how can I produce it and display it in a
browser, say after the user hits the "See Report" button on my page.
Thanks,
T

You may choose to render to PDF or TIFF, both print-ready formats; the
default HTML is optimized for browser viewing. You can change the rendering
format most easily by adding appropriate syntax to the calling URL
"&rs:Format=PDF"

This is not what I mean. I simply want to print a report from my code - say
when a button is pushed. For instance it might look something like this:

Private sub ReportButton_Click.........
dim myReport as new SSReport
myReport.name = "theReport.rdl"
myReport.render

I want to print a report from the code in my code behind module for my aspx
page. That's what I haven't been able to find an example for. Can this be
done with SSRS?
Thanks,
T

Take a look at the sample printer delivery extension.

You can make a web service call to render the report and then use the
same printing logic. However, its far more efficient to just display
as PDF and use client-side printing.
