Office Web Components

Do the interactivity features of OWC client side exist with reporting
services?
Can we replace the work that we do now with OWC and lots of javascript with
RS?I've looked at trying to replicate the pivottable owc in reporting services
but rs just isn't for that, well not without a mega amount of programming.
What part of OWC are you using?

understand it is difficult to implement the same functionality in HTML than
using ActiveX controls. However, you can integrate your OWC components to
run RS reports, e.g. when the lowest level in a dimension hierarchy is
reached.
One more thing. In RS OWC are used only when exporting the report to HTML
OWC format. When this happen, RS exports matrix regions as pivot tables,
charts as chart space objects. However, OWC is not linked to the data
source. Instead, the data is always restricted to the data that the report
query returns.

Hope this helps.
