I am new to Active Reports, currently version 9 with VS2013, and here's the situation I have:

1) Retrieve X number of records from a database using SQL
2) From the resulting Data Table I need to do two things:
A) Depending on the selection criteria, create individual PDFs
B) These files then need to be named in a specific format so they can be successfully transferred to a business partner for distribution.

What I have tried:

Other than some searches I haven't really tried anything. I've seen some of the 3rd party software options available however, I work for state government so any license fee would be an issue not to mention if the 3rd party software needs some sort of desktop authorization before use.

I would say get started and see how far you get.
SQL will return results
Version 9 of Active reports will let you save as a pdf. There's a vb.net exxmple on the page linked below.
