Accessing a Report Server from within a winform

sql server reporting services: Sometime back I posted a message asking about how to access a Report Server
from within a winform. I got a message back that said the following:

"What I did is incorporate the WebBrowser ActiveX object onto a win form and
the set its URL to the URL that would be in a browser. So far this has
worked extrememely well, but I haven't deployed it yet."

My question is, how does on do this? That is, I so no WebBrowser ActiveX
object in the toolbox that can be dragged and dropped onto a winform. It
would help if from a winform I was able to access the Report Server. How
might this be done?

You have a couple of options:
Using URL Access:

Using SOAP:

Woody:

In your forms application right click on the Toolbox and select
"Customize". On the COM components tab in the next dialog select
'Microsoft Web Browser' and click OK.

You should now have a web browser control in the Toolbox you can drop
on your form. It's a bit clunky since it is ActiveX based, but it does
work. VS2005 has a native component to do this, but that doesn't solve
today's problems now does it? :)

Hope this helps,
