ReportViewer 2010 supports “Export to Word”

A feature I’ve been waiting for in the ReportViewer control is “Export to Word”. After installing Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 I immediately created a little test to see if the feature made it. Good news! It did. Here is a screenshot:

Thanks Mark, I was able to use the control using the beta 2 pro version, now I have some problems trying to use it

I am trying to develop a simple RDL report viewer using this control because I am using the report builder 2.0 that uses the 2008 schema for RDL to develop reports (like the viewer from http://www.fyireporting.com/ which is very cool but doesnt support 2008 schema)

The problem is that when I create a report in report builder 2.0 that considers a connection to an SQL server the Report Viewer Control send a message that "the datasource instance is not defined for the dataset", but IT IS defined in re RDL report file xml definition.

This is all because I want just a simple 2008 RDL schema viewer that works locally and stream any RDL report definition I create with report builder 2.0

Maby you know of something I can use...

PD : The report builder works just incredible BUT it has the designer view , which will just mess up with the user
