Embedded Word Document in RDL

I have a word document that I would to migrate to reporting services
2005. Instead of recreating the word document in reporting services, I
would like to know if I can embed the word document in a report? If
not, what other options are there?
Thanks.If you would like the word document to be hosted by RS then in your project
add a new existing item and then select your Word file. Then you can deploy
it. Note that when you update it and want to redeploy I have found that I
have to delete it from the report server first prior to deployment.

I have tried that and that does work. But I was trying to find the
best way to migrate the word document into an RDL file. I want it to
be an RDL file because I have some other data that I want to
incorporate into the report from a database. I am not sure this can
be done, but I would like to avoid from having to recreate the word
document in an RDL file.|||There might be a third party tool that allows this but not straight out of
the box.

embed office document

is it at all feasible to embed an office doument (specifically word) into an ssrs report so that the document will print out when renderered to pdf?
No, this is really not possible. You would need to translate the text into RDL to do this. We are looking at the ability to provide rich text formatting (including embedded HTML) in a future release.|||Please add this feature.
