Can I draw something on the report?

  btw if its a simple text that you want as barcode you can use a barcode font.

  Other than using an images (stored in DB or http links) referenced from the report, the report control in server mode support something called custom report items. Take a look at the following post that explains how build one:

  you can always use the "same name" for that image file, that way you wont have a million images all over the server.... if its a win app you can use a localresource to create the image. (dynamically)

  I need to draw some images ( like barcodes ) on the report, I think I can draw the images first and then put the links in the database then retrieve it later. But that's not really what I want to do, I'll have to save a lot of images on the server.

  I have a custom function that can draw the image according to the imput data, but I couldn't find a way to use that function to draw the image on the report, can anybody help

  Thanks in advance.

  im trying to do the same, i have a field in a database that has point values (used on a bitmap), and im trying to output that into my winforms app. i have a custom code that takes the coordinates and creates a bitmap image, which can then be assigned to the image object but it doesnt work, for somereason it doesnt see the Type Bitmap...

  the solution to your problem might be same, you might need to create a bitmap image with the sth in it and place it on the report, but like i said, my solution doesnt build because it cant see the type bitmap.

  i have referenced the system.bitmap library but that doesnt help.
