a) Create an XML structure from the selected rows in the datagridview. You can derive the tags from your grid columns
b) When building a report - use an XML data source and use a sample XML file like the one above in the connection string to create the layout of the report
b) Whenever you want to generate a report from DataGridview, generate the XML, save the file to a shared directory shared with SSRS
c) Pass the full file path to SSRS as connection string to generate the report.

Hope this helps.
