|||http://blogs.msdn.com/bryanke/articles/71491.aspx , in this article ive seen Creating a Reference to the Web service, what is the use of the web service? im confused. im doing a window application and in order to view the reporting services reports i used the web browser control to display my reports. i just navigate the said report and pass the needed information in the url (reportserver) example: webbrowser.navigate(URL)
and in my reportserver i dont have web service just reports and the data source. ur help would be much appreciated! thanks..
|||With the Webservice you can communicate with the server and get informaion about reports and could do management jobs such as creating subscriptions. you could also render a report thru the SOAP-Webservice.
Its similar to a database-connection (if you are more familar with db-connections).
With the SOAP-Connection you don't need to call URLs, you could make a web-reference in any type of VS-Project and then use it like a reference to a dll..
Here's some more MS-stuff to read..

I cannot get beyond this line:

rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials

I get a soap exception everytime stating that the user does not have the permissions to perform the task. Any thoughts on where and what I need to edit to get this working?

Thank you.
