Draw a cirlce in report using BIDS 2008 R2

  • Hello All,

    How can I draw a circle? Just a regular, inert, graphic object. Or do I have to insert a graphic?

  • Pie chart filled to 100%?

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

  • Hmmm.... I'll give it a shot and report back. I'm really looking for the type of display where there is a circle with an embedded letter, similar to @ but with a letter of my choosing.

  • Create it as an image, then embed it.

  • My apologies but I have to report back that I tried neither the pie chart or the image suggestions. I don't see any reason the Insert>Image wouldn't work.

    I convinced the business user who requested the circle that a square border around the textbox would work just as well. To expedite matters and to keep it simple I went with the text border.

  • Try wingdings font character 0xA1

  • Nice. thank you, that'll work!
