I'll start by saying that this is not a trivial request, especially with wanting to mask the credentials.  But, it's also not terribly difficult.

One option is to use the Crystal Reporting Server.  On the one hand, this is an extra expense.  On the other, it will automatically and easily do a great deal of what you are asking for here.

Another option is to use the .Net class for Crystal to embed it in an ASP page.  Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the details.  Hopefully Brian or hilfy will be along to give a more specific answer.

Lugh,
Thanks for your reply. Having Crystal Report Server is Big no for my company because we only have 12 crystal reports for the entire organization. it will be a pleasure to have the .NET ASP solution. hope somebody there will be available to help me out.
