How do I programmatically set data source for ASP.NET ReportViewer control?

How do I programmatically set the data source for the ASP.NET ReportViewer control?

I have a VS 2008 ReportViewer control and want to switch between a couple of different reports.

I can switch reports by setting the report source and refreshing the control, but I can't see where to set the data source.

Each report has its own data source, and if I configure them initially when the control is built it is fine, but I need to switch between them.

GlobalReportViewer.AsyncRendering = True
    If Session.Count > 0 Then
        For i As Integer = 0 To Session.Count - 1
            If Session(i).GetType().ToString() = "Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportHierarchy" Then
                Session.RemoveAt(i)
            End If
        Next
    End If
    GlobalReportViewer.LocalReport.ReportPath = ""
GlobalReportViewer.LocalReport.ReleaseSandboxAppDomain()
GlobalReportViewer.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(New ReportDataSource("XXXDataSet_YYYTable", "ObjectDSZZZ"))
GlobalReportViewer.LocalReport.ReportPath = "Reports\AAAReport.rdlc"
GlobalReportViewer.LocalReport.Refresh()

1) Basic markup:

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server" />
<rsweb:ReportViewer ID="rptView" Width="1000px" ProcessingMode="Local"
        Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="8pt" InteractiveDeviceInfos="(Collection)" 
        WaitMessageFont-Names="Verdana" WaitMessageFont-Size="14pt" runat="server"  >
</rsweb:ReportViewer>

2) Edit the report XML. Set up your dataset & field names:

<DataSets>
  <DataSet Name="dsSource">
    <Fields>
      <Field Name="MyField1">
        <DataField>MyField1</DataField>
        <rd:TypeName>System.String</rd:TypeName>
      </Field>
    <Query>
      <DataSourceName>dsSource</DataSourceName>
      <CommandText>/* Local Query */</CommandText>
    </Query>
  </DataSet>
</DataSets>

3) Set datasource on both report & report viewer (don't know why...both are necessary)

SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection(_connectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("dbo.MyProc", cn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
DataTable tbl = new DataTable();

cn.Open();
da.Fill(tbl);
cn.Close();

rptView.Visible = true;
rptView.LocalReport.DataSources.Clear();
ReportDataSource rptData = new ReportDataSource("dsSource", tbl);

LocalReport r = new LocalReport();
r.ReportPath = Server.MapPath("~/Reports/MyReport.rdlc");
r.DataSources.Add(rptData);

rptView.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(rptData);
rptView.LocalReport.ReportPath = Server.MapPath("~/Reports/MyReport.rdlc");
rptView.LocalReport.Refresh();

I assume the question is about ReportViewer control.

reportViewer.LocalReport.DataSources.Clear();
reportViewer.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(new ReportDataSource("dsname", source));

"dsname" is the name of the data source, you can find it .rdlc file. source is the variable with data you want to show in the report.
