The C1RdlReport control has several advantages over using the standard Microsoft Reporting Services. The major advantages provided by C1RdlReport include:
-
Support for the current RDL 2008 specification.
-
Programmatic access to the RDL object model (which follows the 2008 RDL specification) - this allows you to modify existing or create new RDL reports completely in code.
-
Generation of RDL reports that can consume any data source (such as .mdb files).
-
A self-contained RDL reporting solution without external dependencies such as the need to access a Microsoft Reporting Services server.
-
Seamless integration with other Reports for WPF reporting engines including C1Report and C1PrintDocument.
