You don't. VB doesn't have a built in report writer. So you need to use a 3rd party tool like Crystal Reports. You can integrate the reports into your program so the users don't have to run a separate report program.

As scott has said you can use Crystal Reports.
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for but he steps for creating and viewing a report are:
Project->Add New Item
Then you select the Crystal report and name it if you like.
There will be a wizard taking you through the process.
Then you must add a Crystal Report viewer to you form, select it then on property's tab change the report source to the report you have just created.
