Displaying a signature in SSRS

    Hi,

    I have a report to do which needs to display an image of a signature. This image is stored as an "image" type in my table, therefore it's binary data.

    Can SRS translate this data and treat it as an image?

    This was originally a Crystal report which renders the signatures but I don't know how to do it in SSRS.

    thanks,

    Paul

    have a look at the following and see if it clears things up for you.

    Thanks,

    Actually I already did it. It was a lot more straightforward than I thought it was going to be. I just dragged an image to my report pane and set the parameters to the field containing the signature. Maybe that's what the blog says too.

    Anyway, thanks for your reply.

    That part of it yes. apparently there were some issues when using images from the northwind db. It went into greater detail on those...

    Glad you got it sorted.
