What exactly would you like your report to look like? Reports can definitely be created without data in ReportBuilder by simply placing components where you need them in the individual bands. The only issue is that it is the data traversal that defines the need for page breaks in a report. If you have filled a page without connecting it to a datasource, you could try using the TppBand.OutOfSpace property to manually break a page. Also if you would like to emmulate data on your report, you can connect it to a JITPipeline which will cause the report engine to traverse even though there is no data.

work i think.
