| I once saw an image of Report Manager that showed a block of text next to each report name describing the report. How is this information added? |

| OK but that's after the report has been deployed. Can it be added in VS2005 when developing the report so when deployed to the customer this description/help info is present? |

we use to add a textbox to report header and add the description these in design view so as make this available as a strapline for user. |

| I found it under Report > Report Properties > Description in VS2005. This does display the description in Report Manager. The report I saw had fancy boarders around the text to section it in Report Manager? |
