How to generate custom reports using VB.NET

Tags: Microsoft, VB.Net 2005
Hello.  We would like to send our clients data via email.  The content of the email varies widely from customer to customer.  The data is stored in various databases.
The requirements are:
1) Use VB.Net
2) The report content comes from a database.  
3) The reports should be easy to build and should not need to be stored in the .net solution.  
4) The data may be part of an attachment, or native in the email.
5) Use a not vendor specific email technology.  We do not want to use Notes or Exchange, but just SMTP email.  
This qustion is not necessarily about code, but rather it is about system architecture in what people are having success with in generating custom reports for email distribution.
