I am looking for a flexible web thin client reporting tool for Microsoft Analysis Server which should be .NET compatible. I want to create an interactive analytical report on the fly and should be able to provide features like save/export/drag & drop dimensions/drill down facility on aggregated values.
Currently I am in the process of evaluating Seagate Crystal Reports 9.0 adv version. But it does not allow to create the new report from the scratch at runtime. It needs a separate runtime license for this which we do not have. So can anybody help me out in suggesting a good solution for the same?

Excel offers OLAP analysis integration with SQL Server, and a Web component version is available.

You can create a report from scratch with RAS -- it is a .NET add on from Crystal that allows you to do just about anything at run-time.

I don't create reports at runtime. I create them in CR9 call them into a ReportDocument object and refresh the data at run-time. Then all you need is the .NET SDK on the web server.

Crystal's help site has downloadable examples of all of this -- crystaldecisions.com
