Report Builder: Display Hyperlink

Using the Report Builder, the users need to generate a report in which one of the columns should have a hyperlink that navigates to a particular aspx page.

Now, I am able to provide for a hyperlink enabled column from the static reports designed using the Report Server Project. I have used the Navigation --> Jump To URL property of TextBox for this.

But the users dont want to depend on static reports and need this to be available via Report Builder.

I tried to provide for the <a href="somepage.aspx">xxx</a> from the named query in the datasource view, but when I run the report, the Reporting Service HTMLEncodes the tags and displays everything as text.

Is there a way to generate a hyperlink using Report Builder.

I'd linke to know the answer to the same question: How can you display a hyperlink in a report built using the Report Builder (NOT the report designer). Even a simple textbox that embeds a single url would be nice.... how can this be done?

Report Builder Hyperlink Column

If I have an entity that returns a column that has a URL in it like http://www.microsoft.com, can I make that a live hyperlink in a Report Builder tabular report?

No, this is not supported in this release.

You can create the report in Report Builder, then open it in Report Designer and modify it to get this behavior, however.
