Previewing a URL image in Reporting Services

Hi all
I need to place an image from a web site onto a RS report. Is it possible to
do this in SRS 2000?
IE. http://<servername>/<directory>/<image.jpg> and render the image on the
report?
Thanks in advance
GeorgeRephrasing the question:
I've assigned the image control value to be a database field containing a
valid URL however I'm getting a red cross when trying to display the report.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
George

Or if you drag the image control from toolbox, you will see 4 options for
image source, you need to choose Image Source = "Web" which the 4th option.
Then click next and leave the URL empty...totally tempty... then click
finish. Then you can edit the value of the image to the database field...
which is full valid url.
