This is kind of a meaningless request, as PDF is not a data "format", so you can't convert SQL data to it.

Nevertheless, if you don't want to buy Adobe Acrobat, you can use this:

I think Business Objects 6.0 will also output to pdf but it's gonna cost you.

ActivePDF has a COM control that should do the trick:
