Hi, I have a "simple" requirement to programmatically print a SSRS report from within a WinForms application. In this case the report is a label printed in response to the user making a specific action within the application. I am currently using the report viewer but I dont need the report to be visible on the screen, and I dont want any user intervention to print the report, I just want to be able to print it programatically. Despite a number of examples in the web, many appear to be some years old and refer to outdated versions of SQL. I am currently using VS2010 and SQL2008. Can anybody give me an example ( in C# ideally ) as to how to achieve this ? Any help / advice would be gratefully received. With many thanks, Nick

Hi try this public void OpenReport() { int numberOfPages = 0; FileLocation = Path.GetTempPath() + "PrintReport.pdf"; SaveReport("PDF", FileLocation); using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(File.OpenRead(FileLocation))) { Regex regex = new Regex(@"/Type\s*/Page[^s]"); MatchCollection matches = regex.Matches(sr.ReadToEnd()); numberOfPages = matches.Count; } if (File.Exists(FileLocation)) File.Delete(FileLocation); printDialogReport.PrinterSettings.FromPage = 1; printDialogReport.PrinterSettings.ToPage = numberOfPages; printDialogReport.PrinterSettings.PrintRange = PrintRange.AllPages; printDialogReport.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = PageLandscape; if (printDialogReport.ShowDialog() != DialogResult.Cancel) { ReportPrintDocument PrintRep = new ReportPrintDocument(rViewer.ServerReport, printDialogReport.PrinterSettings.FromPage, printDialogReport.PrinterSettings.ToPage, printDialogReport.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape); PrintRep.Print(); } else { this.Cancel = true; } } public void SaveReport(string format, string FileLocation) { const string deviceInfo = null; Byte[] bytPDF; string encoding; string mimeType; string extension; Warning[] warnings; string[] streamIDs; bytPDF = rViewer.ServerReport.Render(format, deviceInfo, out extension, out encoding, out mimeType, out streamIDs, out warnings); using (FileStream stream = File.OpenWrite(FileLocation)) { stream.Write(bytPDF, 0, bytPDF.Length); } } NLoly
