How to display an embedded image background in a RDLC report?

Posted on by 73

I need to display a "Draft" image as a background of my "Sales Order" report if the "No. of Archived Versions" is equal to 0.

I have tried this:

          <BackgroundImage>
            <Source>Embedded</Source>
            <Value>IIF(Fields!No__of_Archived_Versions.Value = 0,Draft,Blank)</Value>
          </BackgroundImage>

or this:

<Value>IIF(Fields!No__of_Archived_Versions.Value = 0,System.Convert.FromBase64String(Draft),System.Convert.FromBase64String(Blank))</Value>

But I always get the error that it is not a valid BackgroundImageValue property. Ideally, I would like to specify a "None" image instead of a "Blank" image.

Note that both images are correctly embedded in the RDLC document and if I specify this, it works:

<Value>Draft</Value>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You can use Image Import in Report Builder 

    and From the import action put your image there and set you image as you want.

    I've found the solution:

    <Value>=iif(Fields!No__of_Archived_Versions.Value&gt;0,nothing,"Draft")</Value>
