I have seen a lot of discussion and had a lot of discussions about how best to make the business objects work with reporting.  The first step would be to make them fully compatible with things like XtraReports and ActiveReports.. which I see that most people on the forums are using one or the other.  You are supposed to be able to use the BusinessBindingSource for things like this, but the XtraReport class does not allow me to drop a BO onto a form.  I can drop the BindingSource, but I can't properly link it to a BO instance at design time.  Anything you guys can do to make the reports process a little more seamless would be awesome...we all know what a pain it is to do reports!!
