Data Sources

I have created a report, and would like to use the data contained in that report to create another report. In essence, one report would be the dataset for another report. I can't find any indication that this is possible. Can anyone give me a suggestion?This is possible but not easy. First, you would need to write (or purchase)
a data provider that accepts XML data input from a URL.
Then you would use that data provider to get an export of the report from
the report server in XML format (using URL access).

"Implementing a Data Processing Extension".
It is also available in MSDN:

out the process. I'm still relatively new to RS, and need detailed
