Dear Telerik.
I have say,3 Dropdown controls on my asp.net solution. Dp1,Dp2 and Dp3.
I want to select records from these dropdowns.
Click a button 'View'. This will fetch data from the db.
I can store this data fetched as a collection/datatable/dataset.
I will then pass the object(collection above) on the report to view my data/records on the report.

NOTE: I don't want to use the old fashion way of report parameters. Instead of fetching the data from the default report parameters, I want to use the dropdowns.

Please help!

Hello Robert,

You can set the Report's parameters from your dropdowns. You can find the information needed in the Using Report Parameters programmatically help article.
In case you want to set the DataSource in runtime, please check the Using Parameters with the SqlDataSource component help article.
Also, to hide the ParametersArea in the web viewer you should set the ParametersAreaVisible property to false.

All the best,
