Linking to images

[Aziz]

Hi,

So I am testing the report designer and trying to figure how to display images without embedding it inside the report. In easense I want to create a header and footer images so I can use them across all reports without the need to embed the binary of the two images in every page.

Is this possible or should I use the VS plugin?

Thanks

Hello Aziz,

The PictureBox report item is used to display images on a report. Its value can be an expression that contains binary image data or it can be a URI (local path or URL). When a Value property is assigned a string that is not an expression (doesn't start with "=") the value is assumed to be an URI.
You can reuse images from your hard drive, web address, or images saved in a database as an image column and this can be done in both Standalone Report Designer and Visual Studio Report Designer. The PictureBox.Value expression should evaluate to Image, Image byte[], relative or absolute URI.

For more detailed information, please follow the PictureBox help article.
