Hi,

I am new to reporting.I need to view my reports from the browser.
It will be like there will be a URL that will take me to a page.
That page will contain links or tabs for all my reports. On click on the link or tab I should be able to view the reports.

Can we do that with SSRS.Please help.

Regards,
Arnie.

Thanks and regards
Arnie,

There are 3 components to the URL that you will need.

The first portion is the Report Server definition. It is:
http://ServerName/ReportServer?/ where ServerName is the name of the server that you have reporting services installed on and ReportServer? is the name of the virtual directory defined in the Configure Report Server application

The second portion is the Report Path and Name. If you have a folder defined as Sales off you home folder in SSRS and a report named YTD_Sales the entire second piece would be "Sales/YTD_Sales" which now results in a URL of:
http://ServerName/ReportServer?/Sales/YTD_Sales

The third component are optional parameters that are dependant in what format you want to render the report as well as parameters to pass, whether to display toolbar, etc. There are so many you will have to review the documentation to determine what you would want to use if anything.

Hope this helps.
