I’m using SQL Server Data Tools 2010 (Visual Studio 2010 + MS BI Libraries) in this demonstration, but you can use Report Builder or other tools that create SSRS rdl files. The demonstration in this article will show you how to create a cover page using a subreport. The advantage of using a subreport is that the cover page doesn’t clutter your report and you don’t have to always negotiate your way around the cover page every time you want to edit your report. The rectangle can either go directly into the report header, or it can go into a subreport that in turn goes into the report header. Here’s how it works: Everything you want in your cover page will go into a rectangle that includes a page break after it to separate the cover page from the rest of the report (this ability to do page breaks is the reason we use a rectangle). The cover page usually doesn’t show any data or page numbers, and the first page of data usually displays as page 1.Ĭover pages can be made pretty easily in SSRS. It can add clarity to your report and give it a clean, professional look.
A cover page is simply a page that comes before the report data and that usually contains a report title and other identifying information.
