Some of them were not using TFS yet for that code base. So I wanted a way to easily write a TFS report, send the url to all these teams. <\/p>\n<p>Given my earlier TFS background and the capabilities I learnt exist in ASP world thought why not leverage these two and thus began this exercise to write a TFS Data Source ASP.NET control which I can drop into any ASP.NET web page, bind it to any existing ASP.NET controls to create a simple TFS report. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/kannans\/archive\/2007\/04\/23\/tfs-data-source-asp-net-control.aspx\">more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Then he shows you what you can do with it and walks you through the steps of building&nbsp;a web page that uses the data source from the previous post. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/kannans\/archive\/2007\/04\/23\/tfs-reporting-simplified.aspx\">TFS Reporting Simplified<\/a><\/h4>\n<p> In my last post we saw how to write a TFS Data Source Component.
