"FYIReporting Designer is a report and charting system based on Microsoft's Report Definition Language (RDL). 
Tabular, free form, matrix, charts are fully supported. HTML, PDF, XML, .Net Control, and printing supported. 
A WYSIWYG designer allows you to create reports without knowledge of RDL. Wizards are available for creating new 
reports and for inserting new tables, matrixes, and charts into existing reports." (http://www.fyireporting.com/)

Use the report viewer .NET controls from ASP.NET, WPF, or Winforms using C#, F#, VB.NET, IronPython, or any 
other .NET language.  The winform viewer also works in linux using mono.  There is also a basic Gtk# (gtk-sharp) 
viewer. 

My-FyiReporting is a fork of fyiReporting.  I cannot stress this enough.  This is a FORK.
The main purpose is to make sure that I have a copy of fyiReporting since that project seems to be dead.

I know there are other forks but last I checked they also seemed to be dead.  The main fyiReporting site is 
found at http://www.fyireporting.com/ and it has exmpales found at http://www.fyireporting.com/helpv4/index.php and 
the forum is http://www.fyireporting.com/forum/index.php.  However has I said above for the most part it is a dead 
project.
UPDATE: It looks like there is another fork ReportFU http://reportfu.org and it looks alive.  
Perhaps I will be able to merge my changes into that project at some point.


Also check this projects wiki as information will be slowly added.

This is currently built with visual studio 2008 and targets .net 2.  It should be easy to use visual studio 2010
and target .net 4, just upgrade the solution files.  You can also run the build script in the Release-Builds folder
to build .net 3.5 and 4.0 packages.  

Binary packages are always available from https://github.com/majorsilence/My-FyiReporting/downloads

RDL Compliance
Report file format specifications can be obtained from microsoft.  I believe fyiReporting is currently mostly 
compatiable with RDL 2005.  If you want to add more features see the specfications.
