Question

I’m trying to create a report for my project with a specific template. Having three groups, lets call it Apartment, Building and Dwellers.

We have 6 buildings. Each building contains 20 apartments and each apartment contains N dwellers.

The report I’m trying to create follows this template :

Building A

Dwellers | Apartments

   Dweller A    |     Apartment 1
   Dweller B    |     Apartment 1
   Dweller C    |     Apartment 2
   Dweller D    |     Apartment 3

Building B

Dwellers | Apartments

   Dweller E    |     Apartment 1
   Dweller F    |     Apartment 2
   Dweller G    |     Apartment 2
   Dweller H    |     Apartment 3

Is it possible to do something like this using Report Service from Visual Studio 2010 ?

Answer 1

If you want this within a grid (tablix?) you could create respective groupings. Another solution would be to use a List and group it by building. Then, within the List you are free to layout using other controls.
