DevExpress: XtraGrid with WebForms and Entity Framework
===

I am completely new to XtraReports (and DevExpress in general) as of today.. I have 2 days to implement a report, so please be kind and provide a thorough explanation if you would.

What I have to work with is:

 1. WebForms (.NET 4)
 2. Entity Framework (edmx, not Code First)
 3. I have created a report (inherits DevExpress.XtraReports.UI.XtraReport)
 4. Currently there are no fields in the report because I have no idea how to bind it to my entities..

I did find a site where someone was doing this:

    NorthwindEntities entities = new NorthwindEntities();
    report.DataSource = entities.Categories;

I tried doing that in the constructor like so:

     this.DataSource = context.Tenants.ToList();

but even though I can see there are 8 records, the report shows nothing. I am guessing I need to create some controls and bind them. Has anyone got some working code for this situation?
