Report Versioning

Is there a way to add a version number to an rdl file? If so can someone give me pointers on how to do it.

Thanks

You can add custom properties to RDL under the CustomProperties element. We met a similar requirement by adding a Version property. However, custom properties are not surfaced to the UI (neither Report Manager nor SSMS) so you have to parse the RDL to get to them. Implementing a standard Version property could be a welcome addition to a future release.

You can also add hidden (internal) "Version" parameter with default value, and use it within your report.
