sql server reporting services: If I include a date parameter in a report- in the title of the deployed =
report appears a textbox in which the user should type the date in the =
correct format with no mistakes (08/01/2004 ?.. 01/08/2004 ?.. 20040108 =
?..).
Is there a way to combine a standart windows calendar control instead? =

Hi Geri,

You'll need to provide your own user interface (eg. a web page) and =
place the control on it to capture (and validate) the date before the =
report submision is made.

Usuallly, it's best to create a web page that will call RS to =
determine what parameters are required for the report at runtime and =
dynamically show the user control that best fists the parameter =
datatype.

This generic web page can then be used over and over to provide =
parameter entry / validation support for other reports as well.

You'd better combine a web calendar control in a web application ,which call
Reporting Service as a web service.I.ve implemented it .
