Reporting Services 2000 Standard Edition (currently RTM but hope to have SP2 soon).
I have a report which takes in a parameter – PlantID
I'd like to email a pdf of this report every month to the 80 different plant managers
So I have a table:
PlantID ManagerEmail
1 BillySmith@company.com
2 FredJones@asdf.com
3 JohnLonestar@rrr.com
I can currently setup a subscription to email a report to multiple users each month (which uses the SQL agent).
However I want to specify the input parameter of the report (PlantID) to the recipient of the email (ManagerEmail).
Ideas on how to do this? My current thought is to build a C# app which calls the URL of the RS with the correct input parameter in it. Then gets the pdf back, then emails from C#.
Many thanks

A Data-Driven Subscription would be the ideal answer, but I see that Data-Driven Subscriptions are not available in RS 2000 Standard.
This Article discusses how to use a stored procedure to tweak a Reporting Services subscription and insert your own values into the respective fields.
