I was wondering if is possible to send/print data from DataGridView directly to rdlc report without binding it to ReportViewercontrol.

There are many threads about binding dgv data to report viewer control.I don't want to create another form with report viewer control, but use existing form with data on DataGridView and on print button to send the data to RDLC report and print it.

Is it possible?
Thanks

Print without showing Print dialog

As an option you can print an RDLC report programmatically using LocalReport object and CreateStreamCallback callback function. Here is a complete msdn walkthrough:

Print with showing Print dialog

As another option put a ReportViewer on form and set the Visible property of the control to false then pass data to the report and when the RenderingComplete event fired, call PrintDialog:

For the first option (print without showing print dialog), I've created a Print extension method which you can easily use it this way:

Localreport Render

Here is the extension method:

C# Reportviewer Rdlc
