Hello everybody,

I just entered in the world of the Reporting Services. So, I am really a Rookie. I hope that anybody can help me with my question. I would like to generate periodically a report using SQL Reporting Services. The report has to be saved in pdf (I know that this is possible), but I want to have a specific report naming convention, based upon its contents. The contents will have time related data for a selected period of time from a SQL Server table.

For example:

[A]_[B]_[C]_[D].pdf

[A]: variable selected from the report table
[B]: variable description selected from the report table
[C]: start time of the selected period in the query that selects from the report table. Datetime format: YYMMDDHHMISS
[D]: end time of the selected period in the query that selects from the report table. Datetime format: YYMMDDHHMISS

Is there any way to do this?
What tools would you suggest to create such a report?
