SSRS Hyperlink Opens Windows Form

Show all headers | View raw

Hi. I have been using SSRS for long time but this is the first time that I have needed to do this.

I am working with a Windows VB Forms App not a Web App.
I have a drill-down report with a hyperlink at the lowest level (aka furthest column to the right) and I want to display a small modal forms page (new form) with record details on the form when you click the hyperlink.

How can I launch a new Windows form on the click of a hyperlink?  

I have searched the web and there are many examples of 'launching a new webpage' on the click of a hyperlink but there is nothing for windows apps.  I have checked the Actions properties of a textbox and you can launch a new report, bookmark or URL but no Code Actions.  Also, the Events are disabled/removed within the Textbox Properties toolbox.  I thought about adding a Code function within the report but, without a OnClick_Event, there is no way to fire the code except at Initialization.

Is there a click event for SSRS?  There must be something somewhere because there are plus-signs and minus-signs for drilling.

Thoughts? Am I missing something simple?

Thanks,
Marty
