Is there a ReportViewer Server Control that can be used to view reports from a1.1.4322 ASP.NET web application, where the reports are hosted on ReportServer 2005.
Thank you for your reply however this does not completely answer my question. We currently have a ReportViewer Server Control that works with our 1.1.4322 ASP.NET web application. This control is based on the“Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services sample”. This works fine and is able to render reports hosted on the 2000 ReportServer. However, we now have reports hosted on the 2005 ReportServer which must viewed via the 1.1.4322 ASP.NET web application. At the moment this is not possible with the“Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services sample”. I am aware that this ReportViewer calls the 2000 ReportService webservice. Therefore, I have changed the code in the ReportViewer to reference the new 2005 ReportService webservice. However this seemed to require many modifications to the reportviewer code and I am not sure if it’s worth investing the time in making these changes as this may not be a feasible solution.
The sample report viewer that shipped with Report Server 2000 is very different from the Report Viewer control that ships with Visual Studio and doesn't support nearly the same level of integration with your application. But it does view reports published on a report server, so it certainly can work for some scenarios.
Report Server 2005 continues to support the 2000 soap endpoint, so there should be no problem using the sample as is with a 2005 report server. What problems are you running into when you use it directly?
Robert,
I am having a similar situation, can you please explain to me how you solved the problem.

Hi,
I am using the samples Report Viewer for .net 1.1 framework , which talks to 2000 and 2005 report server using URL access method and runs fine. The report viewer control for 1.1 is not providing me the required security as it makes a direct connection from client browser to report server and thus I have to run the report server under annonynomous access else it pops up a dialog box for user credentials.
Can someone you please help me , how to modify the code to add windows authentication in it so I do not need to run the web applications under annoynomous IDs.
