How to create dynamic reports based on custom business objects?

How can we create dynamic reports(or reports created by the end user) by
selected fields from the list of custom business objects.
We would like to offer full data consolidation. Right Crystal offers this
type of functionality but I would like to steer away from that.
Any ideas how to proceed or whether is it even feasible. We do not want to
use reflection on the objects, I mean we can use it but that would not be the
best approach.
ThanksHi Amarnath,
you said SSRS has a new feature using which report builder could be given to
end user to create reports.
Is this Report builder browser based(so that the end user does not need to
install anything) and could design reports and modify the existing reports,
if yes, how to make use of this?
Thanks
Ponnu
