You need to you the runtime components to create a wrap around
application to do ad hoc reporting. I have developed one in VB 6.0,
but not .NET; I would assume that if the API is available you can do
it with .NET too.
The best manner to attach this problem would be to create a fields
table, let the user choose from that a list of fields that essentially
builds the ad hoc report. If you need more information... let me
know.
