Report of Reports

Are there any example of SSRS reports using an rdl file as the source for the report. I.e. a Report of Reports?

Hi Freddie,

could you please elaborate a bit more?

thanks, 99

One way of doing this in RS 2005 is to render a report with the xml data rendering extension as xml document. This is then used as input for the xml data extension. However, getting the query setup correctly and working is a bit tricky. A specific sample and explanation for this approach will be available in an upcoming MSDN article about the RS 2005 Xml data extension later this summer.

Thanks Robert,

I did find an article "Integrate XML into Your Reporting Environment" by Bill Wolff at http://www.ftponline.com/special/sqlserver/bwolff/

I will be looking for the upcoming MSDN Article.

To elaborate more on my question...I would like to document my reporting service reports using reporting services. For example which property has custom code (e.g. IIF).
