Embedding plug-ins in Reports
I am trying to figure out the way to embed a plug-in (Chime for Windows)
into my report, so that I can display a certain object from a database, that
is stored there as a string. This Chime plug-in would read the input string
and convert it to video display.
This embedding is easily done in simple HTML:
<embed type='chemical/x-mdl-molfile' display2d=true width=200 height=200
hlabels2d='terminalhetero' structure= [encrypted string from the database
follows]>
I am wondering is there a way to do such embedding straight into my report
by using the report designer features or by modifying an RDL file for my
report?
Thank you.

That would be an exiting idea.
Thanks in advance.

If I am able to place my <embed...> string somewhere in my report and when the report is rendered as HTML this string is interpreted as an HTML tag, this would be awesome! So far I experimented with displaying <embed...> string in one of my textboxes, but HTML renderer for report obviously interprets my string as a text not as a tag, so instead of seeing plug-in in action I just see the text of my string.
Probably another approach would be to embed an HTML in a report.
That would also be an exiting idea.
I would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks in advance!
Anton.Reporting Services does not support embedded HTML or object tags. The only way you could do this is to post-process the resulting output.|||
Hello,
Can you detail the approach to be taken, please?
Thanks
