Open link to another report in a separate browser window

    User wants to be able to click on the record

    in my "DSR Validation" report and open a separate browser window with another report.

    So far I only know of one way to do something like this:

    Set Hyperlink action to "jump to report" and pass some parameters.

    The problem is it opens "called" report in the same browser window.

    Th user wants to leave the the main report untouched and to generate a few Chart reports based on parameters form main "DSR Validation" report.

    I believe you need to use some javascript and url access to the report in the jump to url. See this blog post: http://blog-mstechnology.blogspot.com/2009/07/provide-hyperlink-to-open-in-new-window.html

    I found the solution.

    In Textbox Properties, Navigation tab, select "Jump to URL"" option.

    Then insert this Javascript script:

    ="void(window.open('http://wmbcextrmw80101.na.corp.tdwm.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fMarket+Risk%2fSystems+QA%2fUAT%2fCUSIP+Chart&rs:Command=Render&Parm1="+Fields!CUSIP.Value+"'))"

    The URL path to the report you can get if you type http://servername/ReportServer/ in your browser. Then just go to your report and you'll get something like:

    http://wmbcextrmw80101.na.corp.tdwm.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fMarket+Risk%2fSystems+QA%2fUAT

    Just add &rs:Command=Render&Parm1="+Fields!Index.Value+"

    in Navigation / Jump to URL box. In my case I am passing parameter "Parm1" value to "CUSIP Chart" report that is located in the same web folder.

    So what did I achieve?

    When I click a link in my main report, it opens "CUSIP Chart" report in a new browser window.

    I probably can even control the position and size of the new window.

    I will do it for sure.
