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.

Report Builder - Can't Deploy

I am having a problem deploying a report. My target server url is
http://localhost/vbreports. I can get to this site with no problem. When I
deploy my report I get the error "A connection could not be made to the
report server http://localhost/vbreports".
Any help would be appreciated.

That is the url to access report manager application.
Reports are deployed to the reportserver application, typically
http://localhost/reportserver, or in your case, maybe http://localhost/vbreportserver
Rowen McDermott|||Thank you. Now I can deploy but the IE screen for the reportserver shows a
wierd screen. It shows a directory view and when I click on my models and
click on the model that I deployed I see the xml code instead of it running
the report builder. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rob

It sounds like you are getting confused between the report server
application and the report manager application. Both are installed
with reporting services.
The report server application 'http://localhost/reportserver' is the
primary application and includes a web service interface which can be
used to view reports. Reports are deployed to this application via the
web service.
The Report Manager application 'http://softwareserver/Reports/' is an
interface to the above web service that allows report viewing in a
more friendly manner. It is from here that you run report builder.
Rowen|||Thanks Rowen. I discovered my error last night. I can now deploy my model.
But when I open the report builder and choose my model I get the error: The
selected data source does not have any content available. I have checked the
table in the SQL database and there are records.

I'm not sure I understand your questions. If you're asking how to add parameters to a Report Builder report, this blog post might be helpful:

Reporitng Services Web Service and Credentials

I have developed an asp.net, vb.net web app and have integrated reporting services. Right now I am using url access but am not to crazy about showing the parameters in the querystring. I am using a dynamic stored procedure to get client data. I would like to use the rs web service to programatically set the parameters and send them invisably to the web service. Since the web app is not using windows authentication I would like to pass the parameters using a hard coded account that has been set up with browse privilages in the report manager. Is it possible to hard code the credentials that are sent to the reporting service instead of the System.Net.CredentialsCache.DefaultCredentials? The report returns a bar graph which I am hoping to display on the page. Reading some posts about some problems returning images I might be posting some more questions.

Are there any good walkthroughs or code examples using reporting services web service other than MSDN's limited supply?

Thank you for your time!
--
- preisifigured out the first part

rs.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domain")

Now when i try and render my graph the image can't be found.|||this is not an answer to your question but infact a question to you. can you share with us about how far you have gotten in getting this RS thing to work. i mean i have created some reports which accept a couple of parameters. now i need to create a windows service that calls the reportservice everyday, and prints the report. which is a little similar to what you have done. xcept for the windows service part. so could you share some of your xperience ?

thanks.
