Report Common Header

I have 70 reports which all have company logo. If the name of logo is
changed, I have to modify this 70 times and upload to report server 70 times.
Do you have any suggestion that can minimize those tedious work load ?
Can report service allow to include HTML file which can be located in local
drive of report server (e.g. d:\Company Name\Company Logo.html) or the HTML
file is locate in Reporting Manager Folder ?I would assume that the company logo is an image. You can use several types
of external images:
* "Project" images. These are image resources that get published to a report
server and are referenced by relative paths in the reports. See also:

* "Database" images. The images are stored in a database.

* External images on web servers or network shares.

An error 'The URL is not valid' is shown. But if I enter
http://localhost/Reports/images/CompanyLogo.gif, it's ok. Can I just input
the relative path instead of the exact url ? As the name of web server
will be changed, the same problem is still exist that I need to modify 70
times and upload to report server 70 times.
Thanks a lot !!!

the path):
/images/CompanyLogo.gif

Report Builder and Images

How can I add a company logo to the heading of my report.Step 1. Add the image to Report/Embedded Images
Step 2. Add an Image control to reference the embedded image from step 1.
Just FYI. MS offers free virtual labs for Report Services 2005, which
covers most of the basic knowledge to build a report in RS.

(ver 9.0.1399.0). Report Builder is a new feature added to MS SQL Reporting
Services 2005.
I do know that all these options are available when creating a report in VS
2005 and even 2003.
