ASP.NET Reporting alternatives for shared hosting

Question

Hi, I am using a ASP.NET with c# website and MSSQL Server 2005 DB.

Will be hosting on a shared hosting provider..so i cannot install any runtimes/other software or services. i dont have MSRS (Microsot reporting services) or others as well.

I need to find some good reporting alternatives besides Crystal Reports and other heavily paid services.

I need to be able to generate reports with grouping , query based, cumulative, formula based, sub reports within one report, simple graphs and charts, etc

Please help me with this issue.

(i tried LogiReports from http://www.freereporting.com/product/index.html) but it is difficult to use.

Thanks and Regards

Have you considered Telerik Reports? It does not need any special software installed on your deployment servers. The reports that you create are in a dll that deploy along with your application. It is not free, but it is still very nice.
