Jump to URL for pdf file

Does anyone know if it is possible to use the Jump To URL feature to display
a pdf file?
It seem like it should be possible because I can upload the pdf to a
Reporting Services folder and then use Report Manager to open and display it,
but I can't seem to get it to work in a report. Possibly due to a syntax
problem?...
Thanks,
SteveYes you can do it. I just tried on some word documents that I have deployed.
First, to make sure we are on the same page. You need to bring your PDF file
into your project and deploy it. Next do this:
="javascript:void(window.open('" & Globals!ReportServerUrl &
"?/FolderName/Documentname.pdf','_blank'))"
or if don't want it open in another window do this:
=Globals!ReportServerUrl & "?/SomeFolder/SomeDocument.PDF"

different application. I was missing the "?".
