Report Builder and .Net

All,

We are currently very successfully using Report Builder 7.0.4 in our Delphi
7 application. We are developing a ASP.Net front end (Using Visual Studio)
as an extension to our product for our remote users.

What is the best way to deliver my Report Builder functionalilty to my
ASP.Net users. I think I have two options. Somehow link you .Net files into
my VS Project (don't even know if this is possible!) and deliver it that
way, or use Report Builder Server (a much more costly solution).

Are there any other solutions. Please help.

Regards,

    1. ReportBuilder Server Edition

    RB Server Edition includes an ASP example that you could adapt for ASP.NET.
    The example is installed to RBServer\Demos\WebTier\ASP. It uses Delphi's
    WebBroker to build and ASP Com object. The .NET platform has built-in
    support for using COM objects. RB Server Edition includes a WebTier
    component that generates an HTML/Javascript viewer. See the live demo

    www.digital-metaphors.com/RBServerLive

    I recommend you download the trial version and evaluate this option. This
    solution will save you hundreds, more likely thousands, of hours in
    development. Thus a huge cost savings and a very professional result.

    2. RB COM Interop

    Use Delphi to build a COM layer that you can call from .NET.
