Adding Interactive Features (Reporting Services)

In environments that support interactivity, such as HTML 4.0, reports can include a variety of features that provide interactivity to users. Users can influence the appearance of a report and the data it contains by typing or selecting a value for a parameter before running the report. A user can show or hide items in a report and click links that go to other reports or Web pages. Reporting Services also provides a document map, which acts like a table of contents. A user can click items in the document map to jump to areas within a report.

You can enable a user to control report display and content by designing expressions that include parameter references for sort, filter, and visibility. For more information, see Adding Parameters to Your Report, Sorting Data in a Report, and Filtering Data in a Report.
