dynamically created dataset

I am building a mailing list report.

I have the report all built to display name, address, etc and this works well if i build the dataset in RS.

Problem:
I want to use this same report to build mailing list for any group of people the user selects while using a c# application.

Question:
Is there anyway to build a dataset in an application then send it to RS?

thanks

Hi,

Starting with SQL Server 2005, Microsoft has added rdlc reports. These reports can be embedded within a C# application by using the reportviewer.

Here is an example: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms251724(VS.80).aspx.

|||I've messed around with the rdlc reports w/ the reportviewer but i don't see how that would help me.

the report viewer lets you swap which report is shown in the viewer, but i want to swap the dataset that the report gets its data from.|||What i ended up doing is making a stored procedure that accepted a 'where clause' parameter that was built in the application. i then use the SP as the data source for the report.

IF @.WhereClause + '' <> '' SET @.statement = @.statement + ' AND ' + @.WhereClause|||Several in fact as explained in this article.
