CSS and themes

Will support for CSS and/or Themes be provided in SSRS 2008? The features that allow me to easily change the look and ensure consistency in FrontPage, SharePoint Designer and InfoPath are greatly missed in SSRS.

I too would love to see this enhancement in 2008. This would majorly cut down the developement time of large suites of reports.

I read somewhere that CSS was going to be supported.

We would love to provide this but it didn't make the cut for 2008. It is very high on the list for next time.

that is a GREAT disappointment. With all of the advancements in other products from MS that depend on CSS I can not understand why this product is so far behind. I can understand 1 generation but now you will be 2 generations behind the functionality provided in SPD 2007 and VS.Net 2005. ASP.Net 2 has been out for several years and the master page, themes and css techniques is even older than that. MS Word has had very easy to use table formatting features for many years, yet SSRS does not implement any of those techniques. I would really like to have a report/chart displayed in a web site that looks like it belongs there instead of looking like it came from a foreign planet.

PLEASE reprioritize this.

Thanks

The real simple way to help fix this problem would be to allow you to click on a table or the entire report and give it a theme just like you can with the VS wizard.

I too would like to add a note about my disappointment in this feature being excluded.

MS claim to listen to customer needs, so I'm hoping that with enough support you will include this feature....
