Automated client report rendering

My company would like to write an app that does on-demand rendering of
certain reports. Is there a .NET client report rendering library that
is not dependent on IIS (as the SOAP/URL apis are), nor WinForms (as
the ReportViewer is)?
Thanks,
EvaAfter some research I've found one third-party product called the RDL
Project that renders RDL into HTML, PDF, and some other formats. It's
found at http://www.fyiReporting.com. I played with it, and its version
1.0.1 can't yet parse a report that I built in VS2005, although I think
it could if I removed a few unsupported things from the report and if I
studied its code a bit more (documentation seems lacking).
Hope this post helps someone else, and of course if you know of any
other options please let me know!
