How to use RDLC with Asp.net?

How to use RDLC with Asp.net?
Sql server reporting service without instilling SSRS

I just passed thru a situation where my client does require 2 reports to be developed in SSRS ( SQL Server Reporting Service ). It was not good advise to spend extra money behind SSRS on shared hosting as his requirement was very small. I show some example of RDLC (Report Definition Language Client-side) to my client and he was very excited about that.

I thought it’s nice to share this with all my blog readers and my friends.

Introduction
Step : 1 Create a Parameterized Store Procedure.
(I have used table called ProjectDetail for this tutorial )

    CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[ReportProjectDetail]
    (
      @ProjectID  INT=NULL ,
      @FromDate   DATE=NULL,
      @ToDate     DATE=NULL
    )
    AS
    BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON;
    BEGIN TRY
           SELECT      ProjectID,
                       ProjectName,
                       ClientName,
                       ProjectReqDate,
                       ProjectValue,
                       PartnerID,
                       PartnerType,
                       PartnerName,
                       PartnerEmail,
                       FundingID,
                       FundingStatus,
                       AmountRequested,
                       AmountRecieved,
                       SentFundTo,
          FROM   ProjectDetail                            
          WHERE (@ProjectID =NULL or ProjectID=@ProjectID)
          AND   (@FromDate IS NULL OR CreatedOn BETWEEN @FromDate AND                        @ToDate)

     END TRY                                              
      BEGIN CATCH                                    
          PRINT Error_Message()              
          DECLARE @msg VARCHAR(MAX)
          SELECT @msg = ERROR_MESSAGE()
          EXECUTE ERR_LogError
          RAISERROR('Error in %s: %s', 16, 1, 'ReportProjectDetail',@msg)
      END CATCH                                            
     END

    • Once your have Drop n drag Control on aspx Webpage , select it and click on the arrow on the top right corner to choose your rdlcReport.rdlc report in dropdown list.

    protected void GenerateReportButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            ReportViewer1.Visible = true;
            string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings
    ["ConnectionStringName"].ConnectionString;

            Database db = new SqlDatabase(connectionString);
            DbCommand command = db.GetStoredProcCommand("ReportProjectDetail");
            db.AddInParameter(command, "@ProjectID", DbType.String, ddlProject.SelectedValue);
            if (calFromDate.Text.ToString() != "")
            {
                db.AddInParameter(command, "@FromDate", DbType.String, calFromDate.Text.ToString());
            }
            if (calToDate.Text.ToString() != "")
            {
                db.AddInParameter(command, "@ToDate", DbType.String, calToDate.Text.ToString());
            }
            DataSet dataset = db.ExecuteDataSet(command);
            ReportDataSource datasource = new ReportDataSource("DataSet1", dataset.Tables[0]);

            ReportViewer1.LocalReport.DataSources.Clear();
            ReportViewer1.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(datasource);

            ReportViewer1.LocalReport.Refresh();

If you do not know how to use such data, then this article will be useless for you since you still don’t understand anything.
