From: Bill on
I'm looking for suggestions on how to display the results of a query on an
outline map.

My report returns results for each of the US states, but presenting it in
tabular format is dull and not very compelling. Instead, I would like to
show a on US map with the state's figure(s) within the state borders under
it's two-letter abbreviation. For the smaller eastern states (e.g., RI, CT,
NJ, MD, and DC), it would be OK to have the figure and abbreviation floating
in the Atlantic with/without a line connecting it to the state's location.

SQL Server Reporting Services provides many charts that can be used for
reports, but I haven't come across a map-type chart. And I don't seem to be
able to locate an add-in package that provides this functionality.

Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance,


Bill
