DataSet objects are displayed only if you create a Typed DataSet not a function that returns one. If you want to use business objects as your datasource, then create a class defining your object and then create other class that returns a collection of those objects. Here is a sample of how to do that http://gotreportviewer.com/objectdatasources/index.html

Pay attention to the last part entitled as "Using object data sources in Web sites"

But my DataSet is created using one method.

Sometimes when i design the report it detectes the DataSet retrieved by method, in other times dont retrieve...

Now, i have two methos

Dataset Report()

and 

dataSet Report(string date)

and none appears in the design of the report.

Any idea?
