Create Report on the fly

[Yogesh]

We have a very unique need from our customer who wants to have a custom front end with a fancy design where user can select list of columns and other business related information, based on this information we need to get data from database and construct a report on the fly. So my question is

1. Using Telerik can we create report on the fly. where we will control every aspect thru runtime, similar to design time features. such as adding fields, grouping, adding aggregration, changing layout etc.
2. Does Telerik supports in place edit mode for reports. We looked at Stimulsoft which provides complete flexible in terms of report construction also it has a in-place designer that can be launched in run time.

Let me know your thoughts around it.

Hello Yogesh,

Telerik Reporting is an embedded reporting engine and currently reports can be designed only with Visual Studio or created programmatically. We do not provide a stand-alone end-user designer yet, but we are working on this functionality and hope to have a first version by the end of the year.
