My requirement is to display a TIFF image on a SSRS report. As SSRS Report Image object does not allow TIFF image format I have done the following work around I created a SP which reads the image from a shared path & stores the image in a temp table as Image data type The SP then returns the temp table in the result set I created a blank report in BIDS (SQL Server 2008 R2) I then created a data set on the report with the SP created I added an Image object on the report I set Image source = Database I set the field to be used as the bytes field in the dataset I set MIME type = Image/jpeg After running the report, the image was getting displayed on the report as expected. I then deployed the report on SSRS 2008 R2 server The problem is that the image is not getting displayed on the deployed report. (a cross symbol is getting displayed)

I think there is some problem in Report Manager's Report Viewer control. I used the same report which is deployed on the web server in a windows application & its working. I created a windows application, added a report viewer control & set the report viewer to point to the report deployed on the SSRS 2008 R2 server. The image is getting displayed on the report without making any changes to the report.

Hi A4Aki, By design, the image control in Reporting only supports BMP, JPEG, GIF and PNG image formats. Even though you can display Tiff image(Stored in database) in VS develop environment, Report Server still cannot support it.
