what kind of error came up?
are u added a merge file when u deployment it?

you need to explain it in detail that what type of connection you are using. i assume that preparing your report through selecting from a location.
i think the error message will be
"failed to load report"
u need to keep the deployed project in exact location which location u choose while selecting the database

I m using ms access OLEDB Jet 4.0.

I m generating report from access database which is stored in the directory(\bin\debug).

After deployment, I copied this database to the directory where executable resides, but i cannot connect. My application showing a blank report.
