An RS 2000 report server will not allow you to publish a 2005/01 report. Technically, it would be however not hard to compare the 20 ...Show All

  Hello, Just starting to work on some duplex communication samples. Can someone confirm that this will work behind a loadbalancer Regards, Ruurd Boeke Instant mode per call will not change the behaviour - instance more merely refers to the creation of the server side service object.
