sql server reporting services: I am new to reporting and Yukon and trying to understand reporting services.
I am trying
to determine if it is possible to define reports programmatically and send
them to a yukon server (or SQL server 2000) and have it generate an Excel
report and place it at the specified location on the file server. What
complicates this picture is that the reports to be generated/queries to be
performed are very complex. Can such complex queries be defined dynamically
and sent to the server via an API call ... can we use a stored procedure, if
necessary, to return the data?

I looked briefly at RDL and the web services but could not determine if they
could be leveraged for our solution. Any input you have will be greatly

Yes, you can generate reports dynamically via the API... you can also run
them,,, you can create subscriptions to run immediately, and send the report
to a file share..

Thank you Wayne. Can you please point me to which API can be used for this
purpose and any websites that I can go to for more information on this.

Thanks in advance,
