I could pass the database logon in Reports with subreports but the reports with subreports with different  server name I can not pass the logon information . Do you have any idea how I can do that to pass the database logon with different database or server name ?

You can use the Subreports collection of the ReportDocument object to access all the subreports in your main report. These are returned as ReportDocument objects. Once you have your subreport as a ReportDocument you can loop through your Tables collection and set the ConnectionProperties to your appropriate Server/Database. For example here is some pseudo code: ConnectionInfo boConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();boConnectionInfo.ServerName = "serverName";boConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "databaseName";boConnectionInfo.UserID = "username";boConnectionInfo.Password = "yourpassword"; foreach(ReportDocument boSubreport in mainReport.Subreports){    foreach(Table boTable in boSubreport.Database.Tables)    {        TableLogOnInfo boTableLogOnInfo = boTable.LogOnInfo;          boTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = boConnectionInfo;          boTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(boTableLogOnInfo);          boTable.Location = "newtablelocation";     }}
