I am looking for a reporting service/tool for visual Studio. My only restraint is my web server is off limits to me as far as installing ANYTHING. So I need something I can just include in my project.

My users need to be able to export a report to PDF and without being able to use Crystal I am pretty much lost.

Any ideas?
