Launch Reporting Services Reports from .Net Code
- by Jeff
What is the best way to launch reporting services reports from .Net code? One method would be to dynamically build a URL and launch a browser. Something like this:
http://server/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fReport+Directory%2fReport%20Name&FirstParameter=1,2,3&SecondParameter=8/30/2009&rs%3aCommand=Render
I don't like how it creates a dependency on the specific URL--especially report parameters which are very likely to change. Is there a better way?
The reports I want to link to are in several reporting services projects hosted on one (eventually two) servers.
