title: MVC 5 How to use an object in rdlc report
body: <p>this is my first question here.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using VS Community 2015 and a MVC 5 project with Entity Framework 6. I use code first migration for data modeling.</p>
  
  <p>I allready have reports using a view for each one. Each view uses a C# model for show report as a HTML5 web page.</p>
  
  <p>Now I have to send the output to pdf, word, excel... For that I'll use RDLC but I don't know how set the object model as a dataset. The idea is send the same object that allready use the view for build the report. The data for the reports isn't.</p>
  
  <p>Any idea or suggestion or tutorial how can I do that?</p>
  
  <p>I'm very new to RDLC and I'd never use dataset before.</p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
