Can someone suggest?...

In my application, the majority of data is taken not from a database, but is
generated by the application itself.
Now before report generation I have to spread these data across tables for
the sake of a single report.
It's too inconvenient.
Is there a way to do it directly, or, ideally, visually?

It depends on what the report tool needs as data source. If it supports
System.Data.DataSet, System.Data.DataTable, etc. you can populate those
objects in memory. Another approach is if the tool supports XML files as
source, which can be generated also on the fly...

I would generate the data directly into a DataTable.
Create the table, add columns, add rows, done.

Hello James and all,

Why don't you go and try Report Sharp-Shooter by 9Rays.Net. I think that it
is
exactly what you need as it offers visual business objects support in the
designer so
you can dynamically and visually spread your data. Fast and easy...

Everyone can try this solution and say what they think of it. But I really
like it!

James, I recommend you to try it for your project and then come back with
your feedback.

Others are also welcome to join.
