Calling a VB.NET web application from report manager

Does anybody know if I can call a VB.NET web application from within RS
report manager. All my security is contained in the application and all I
want to do is call it from within report manager for centralization reasons.
I was able to create a shortcut and upload that to report manager and it
works up until I try and run the report(s). The error message I get is
"Cannot find /Main.aspx". The VB.NET application itself displays a screen
where the user selects start and end date, division(s) (multiselect) and the
expense report(s) (multiselect) they want to run. They then simply click
"Generate Report" and the application builds the reports programmatically
and places them onto a network share in Excel format. All works well when I
run in IE.
Any help is greatly appreciated.Hello,
Based on my scope, I think because report manager itself is a Web
application, you cannot call another Web applicaiton from within report
manager. You could only upload report to report manager, not a Web
applicaition link.
