ssrs 2008 r2 report display a PDF document

  • In an existing SSRS 2008 r2 report, I want to be able to display a PDF document when the user clicks on a link. I know that if I click on text box properties, and then select

    an action, and then select a url refernce, this will bring up the PDF document I want to access. My problem is how do I point to a file that is on my workstation and how do I

    point to a file that is on a sever?

    I haver tried the fofllowing expression options like the following:

    1. ="FILE:\\D:\SSRS\Images\Help.pdf",

    2. D:\SSRS\Images\Help.pdf, and

    3. ="D:\SSRS\Images\Help.pdf".

    None of the above options work. Thus can you tell me how to access the location of the Help.pdf file so that the SSRS report will know where the PDF document is located and

    will display the report for the user to access?

  • What if you try the following?

    \\computername\d$\SSRS\Images\Help.pdf
