Question about data sources formats supported in SQL Server 2005 reporting services

Hi, all here,

I am new to reporting service, I have question about the data source formats which can be get accessed by SQL Server 2005 reporting services server. I mean what kind of data sources formats that can be imported into reporting service server?

Thanks a lot for any help and guidance in advance.

I suppose you mean which kind of data you can access in reports. An overview is available here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159219.aspx

Besides that, you can use OleDB and ODBC providers, managed .NET providers, and you can implement custom data extensions.
