Direct Link to reports

Hi There,

I have recently upgraded to report Server 2005. I used to have a webpage that loaded a number of reports into different frames to give real time statistics for an IT Service Desk.

In the new version if try and link directly to the report (By right clicking a report and taking the link) the report loads with out any of the toolbars etc at the top as i need it, however it does not refresh and seem to be cached data.

Has anyone got any ideas how to resolve this problem, in short all I need is a way to directly view the report losing all the toolbars etc on the top and just displaying the data.

This has been driving me mad so if anyone could help i would be really grateful!

Many thanks

Gerard

YOu can definitely do this but not "by rightclicking on a report and taking the link". That's going to get you the origin of the report invocation in report *manager* (by default, http://<yourserver>/reports) when what you want is the link to the report in the report *server* (by default, that would be http://<yourserver>/reportserver).

There is plenty of information on this in the helpfile -- just look for topics that mention "URL Access".
