ActiveReports allows you to use scripting to provide ease in reporting functionality. Scripting permits reports saved to an RPX file to contain code. This characteristic allows the options of stand-alone reporting and web reporting without requiring .vb or .cs files. By including scripting when the report is saved as an RPX file, it can later by loaded, run and displayed directly to the viewer control without using the designer. Scripting can also be used in conjunction with RPX files to allow distributed reports to be updated without recompiling.
