sql server reporting services: Hi,

I am not sure which book to buy: Hitchhiker's Guide to SQL Server 2000
Reporting Services
or
Professional SQL Server Reporting Services -- by Paul Turley

I need a book that will also show me for example how to pass parameters from
asp.net to rss. I want the user to select parameters from asp.net and pass
those parameters to the stored procedure in the report.

I use the Wrox book (as you mentioned) and also SQL Reporting Services Step
by Step - by Microsoft. Both deal, in depth, with design, deployment and
server administration.

Depending on how you want the report to open from your aspx page, you can
simply use the URL for the RS report, and pass the parameters in that (that's
how RS does it), to open the report only, without any fuss. I also use
buttons on my ASP pages to render the report in PDF/Excel etc immediately
without having the user required to 'export' it themselves.
