Info on Reporting Services

Anyone have a source for detailed specs on this? Specifically inclusion of
the ad-hoc interface like CR has? (ActiveView?)
We are looking at a potential dump of CRE and using SRS if the
funcitionality we need/want is there.
thanks

Detailed specs on what? Currently, RS doesn't come with ad-hoc capabilities.
There are third-party tools you can use, e.g. Cizer Query. No details at
this time about ActiveView-to-RS integration.

Hope this helps.

sure if it was rolled into the system yet.

like we are, you may be interested in the thread that's been running
in response to a post I made earlier in this ng with the subject
