Generating report from Code

I need to generate and save a report to disk from a standard Windows
Application without user intervention.
So basically, a user clicks a button, and a report is saved to his c:\ in a
predefined format and with a predefined filename.
Anyone?

Correction: File should just be saved to the servers c:\|||This code will allow you to generate a report, and create a PDF file from it.
You can tweak the parameters to export the format and type you wish:
public static void deliverReport()
{
MyReportingService.ReportingService rs = new ReportingService();
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
// Render arguments
byte[] rpt = null;
string reportPath = "/ReportProject1/Report1";
string format = "PDF";
string historyID = null;
string devInfo =@."<DeviceInfo><StartPage>0</StartPage><PageHeight>8.5in</PageHeight><PageWidth>14in</PageWidth></DeviceInfo>";
ParameterValue[] parameters = new ParameterValue[0];
DataSourceCredentials[] credentials = null;
string showHideToggle = null;
string encoding;
string mimeType;
Warning[] warnings = null;
ParameterValue[] reportHistoryParameters = null;
string[] streamIDs = null;
SessionHeader sh = new SessionHeader();
rs.SessionHeaderValue = sh;
rpt = rs.Render(reportPath, format, historyID, devInfo,
parameters, credentials,
showHideToggle, out encoding, out mimeType, out
reportHistoryParameters, out warnings,
out streamIDs);
FileStream stream = File.Create("test.pdf", rpt.Length);
stream.Write(rpt, 0, rpt.Length);
stream.Close();
}
