How to bypass the Reporting Services username & password prompt.

I have a C#/asp.net web application that uses a report viewer control to
display a  Reporting Services report. When the asp.net page displays,
the applicatin user is prompted to enter a username and
password, and then to press a button labeled "View Report"
This will then display the report. Please see the attached screen snapshot.


The fact that the user has to enter in a username and password is not acceptable
according to the requirements. Hence, I need to figure out how the application
user can bypass having to enter in a username and password. The only way I can
figure out how to free the application user from entering in credentials, is to
programmaticaly with C# pass in the credentials.

Does anyone know how this can be done using C# ?

SNilsson, I now realize that you had more of the type of answer that I was looking for instead of the one offered by "newbial". Respectfully I think Newbiel misunderstood me. So my apologies for not awarding you more points. I need more direction from your answer though. Can you be more specific with regards to binding to the data source? In your instructions i don't have enough information to determine if I should be using SQL Server management studio? Or what tool to make the changes that need to be done.
