SSRS: Report field with email Address.

  • Hi.  I'm currently developing reports in Visual Studio 2015.  I've got one report that list clients email addresses.  Was wondering if there was a way that when you click on the email address, it can open a new email message to be sent to the client.

     

  • Yes, that's simple enough. I've not got SSRS at home, so you'll have to bare with me on my recollection though.

    Right click the text box and select Properties and then go to the Action (think that's its name) pane. In there one of the options is to open a webpage/hyperlink. Select that one, and then you'll have a box to enter the web address to take the user to and enter an expression. Select to enter an expression, and then enter the below:

    ="mailto:" & fields!emailaddress.value

    When you click the box, it should then open a new email message to the email address (note I guessed the name of your field).
