In the documentation that comes with iReport there is an example how to do this..

Basically you need your jrCSVDataSource as per the example...

Also a method in your DSFactory.. e.g.

public net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRDataSource getTheCSVDatasource( )

{

return new JRCSVDataSource("test.csv");

}

You will need to create the fields in iReport manually

(i.e. COLUMN_1, COLUMN_2, COLUMN_3 etc...)

etc...
