Non-Report Hyperlinks on Report Manager Home Page?

Is it possible to add hyperlinks to the Report Manager Home Page that link to other aspx pages? I have created some associated data entry aspx pages that I want to enable access to from the Report Manager Home Page (if possible).

Thanks!

It isn't...maybe you could run it inside an IFRAME, surrounded by other UI (including "your" hyperlinks)?|||

Why not just create an "index" aspx page that would have links to reports similar to report manager? You could have this index page in the same project as the associated data entry aspx pages.

It seems to me that you're thinking about it backwards.

Thanks for the replies...

The end user is already fairly comfortable with the Report Manager front end, so I am kind of stuck with it as my launching point.

The only thing I have come up with is an "empty" report accessible from the main folder that only includes the hyperlinks for the "Data Entry" aspx pages. A little kludgy though.

No SS2005 Express

I have SS 2005 express* working(yrs) on a XP home ver. laptop. I got a new Acer w/ Vista hm/premium and I registered/can't get SS 2005 express* to download from MSDN.

Norton's gives a file block, I click the 'download file' and nothing happens. No dialog, hd drv activity, nothing - just 'Done'

on IE7 status. I have Visual Web Developer beta v2 2008** running on the Acer and don't want to trash the install.

.NET fwrk v2.0 is listed required for SS2005, but .NET fwrk v3.5 says it includes v2.0 + WCF,...(right? - install both?)

I need a SS for VWD 2008. I've ask/tried several times. What am I doing wrong?

There are no blocks of any kind on the site that would prevent you from downloading the installer package for SQL Express, it's just a simple file download. The download does not check for anything at all. You should investigate if you have anything configured about Norton or Windows (IE?) that is stopping the download of certain types of files.
