Amit for this you can follow below process.

// Keep your all rpt file name in a list.
List lst = new List();
lst .Add("officecopy.rpt");
lst .Add("customercopy.rpt");

Take a loop as per your requirement. I mean how much report you want to print by clicking button one time.

Assign values to report viewer like : -

foreach(string rpt in lst)
{
// Refresh  report viewer
   string reportpath = "ReportViewerApplication." + lst.item

   reportViewer1.Reset();
   reportViewer1.LocalReport.ReportEmbeddedResource = reportpath ;
   this.reportViewer1.RefreshReport();

   // Pass printer details through processinfo
   ProcessStartInfo processinfo = new ProcessStartInfo();


// Start process to print a report
   using (Process process = Process.Start(processinfo ))
   {
       process.WaitForExit(); // Wait for it to finish
   }
}

Hey sujeet,

Changing of report is not a problem. I already used this to change the report file in reportviewer.

As i am having 2 reports, currently I have to click print button 2 times. suppose if i have 5 reports, i have to click print 5 times.... that i want to skip it.

I just dont want to show print dialog and print several reports programatically

Amit please try below code once. This may help you:

// Add this code to embed a report at runtime
reportViewer1.Reset();
reportViewer1.LocalReport.ReportEmbeddedResource = "ReportViewer.customercopy.rdlc";

this.reportViewer1.RefreshReport();

// Where:
// reportViewer1--> A Report Viewer Control
// ReportViewer --> Name of the solution
// customercopy.rdlc --> Name of the report
