Sorry for not giving solution that time and for not replying.. Was bit busy.

Actually we cant have multiple designs in one rdlc reports or you can say we cant open multiple rdlc reports in single designer.

What we can do is that..
We can manage column visibility with bool parameters passing to rdlc file and at runtime designer will decide which column has to display and which column should be hidden.. Now I can open 3 reports having difference of 3 to 4 columns by passing bool type parameter for each column to display or hide.
like in column visiblity type this expression

=iif(Parameters!CountryVisible.Value="True",true,false)

where country visible is that parameter which has been passed through code for column visiblity.

You can also manage group data and group field through parameters

Hi,

you want to show 3 different reports in one single report then you can use subreports. Assume each of your report as a subreport & bind it with the main report.

If this wasn't the question then make it a bit more clear.
