Interactive charts, etc.

Hi everyone,

Two questions about charts in reports.

1) They seem pretty static. I have a report with vertical column chart, and I would like to enable hyperlinks through chart columns, so, say, a height of column shows a number of experiments done by a person. I want a user to be able to click on the column or something that would be associated with that column and go either to another report or external URL that would show info about those experiments (similarly as it is done for any field in a regular report). Is it possible to do something like that? (Help files unfortunately were of no use )

2) Is there any way to show a numeric value for the column height in vertical column chart like this:

40
_
| | 20
| | _
| | | |
| | | |

Thanks, I appreciate your help!

Brian,

What kind of technology does Reporting Services use to display Interactive Charts? Is it Office Web Components?

If it is Office Web Components, then will I need to license it for every web user who uses the Sql Reporting Server to view the reports?

Thanks,

Kanwal

No, it does not use OWC. Your web users are covered by the RS license.
