long overdue post - book & bye SQL reporting services

About 2 years ago, as we were wrapping up SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005, I wrote a reporting services chapter in Sams' SQL Server 2005 unleashed book, As I haven't heard from the editors for a long time, I assumed it had shared the same ill-fate with many software projects - nothing I would have any first-hand experience with J.

It bounced back, however, and was eventually published this spring. They have saved the best for lastJ, so go directly to Chapter 49 and get some hands-on info on using SQL reporting services, and the Visual Studio report controls, complete with working code.

Enjoy...

This is also the last post on Reporting Services you will see on this blog. About 1 year ago, I decided I should try something new, and joined the then-newly created AdCenter team - Microsoft's online advertising unit.

I am involved in AdCenter fraud-prevention efforts and in relevance and infrastructure work - mostly things you notice only when they don't workJ. I might write some posts about AdCenter as I get more time.
