BACKGROUND

Am writing a WinForm app that uses the SSRS Report Viewer control to render reports in local mode - there is no SSRS server involved at all
I can successully create and execute reports in local mode
What I want to do is add Parameters to the report

THE PROBLEM

When the Report Viewer control executes a report in local mode it does not provide any UI that allows the user to enter values for parameters defined in the report
This is in contrast to to when the Report Viewer control is running a server report - parameters are shown.

MY QUESTION

Are there pre-built components or even sample code I can use that would provide a reasonble parameter user experience for this scenario (scenario = SSRS + Report Viewer Control + Local Mode)?
Yes, I could write this UI code myself - what I am looking for is existing code to avoid having to implement this UI because I'd rather spend my time making the content of the report work well

NOTES

Switching to another reporting engine besides SSRS is not an option.
Switching to server side reports is not an option.
