I've added a pictureBox to the header of my report and now I want to add a picture that is in my images folder of my website. So for the Value field I entered "./images/letterhead.jpg" but I get the error below (I've tried variations like "/images/letterhead.jpg" and ".\images\letterhead.jpg", none of them work). It seems like no matter what I type in for the value field it looks on the local C: drive.
An error has occured while processing PictureBox 'pictureBox1':
Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\images\letterhead.jpg'.

Hi Christian,
Our guess is that you receive this error while previewing the report in Visual Studio and not in actual runtime when the application root would be the root of the web site and not the Visual Studio directory.
The above is due to the fact that when previewing a report in the Report Designer, the reporting engine is hosted inside the VS application (devenv.exe) and the dependencies and paths are resolved according to it.
In order to address this peculiarity, we usually suggest to preview the reports in another application (be it a Windows Forms or Web) outside Visual Studio to ensure that all dependencies are resolved appropriately.
All the best,
Steve
