RDL Spec 2005 pg 34 error

On the RDL Nov 2005 Specification page 34 there is a table. This shows that the "Action" element does not apply to charts. This must be wrong as I was pleasantly surprised when I added a hyperlink to a chart yesterday.

Has this been added since the Spec or is there a newer version of the Spec than the Nov 2005?

The published RDL Spec is actually correct. Actions do not apply on the entire chart, but only on chart datapoints. I.e. certain areas within a chart are associated with an action (through image maps), but not the entire chart.

Please lookup the Chart DataPoint element in the spec and you should see the Action element being present.

RDL from SQL200 to Yukon

I am trying to open a SQL 2000 report in Yukon.
I am getting:
Deserialization failed: The Report element was not found.
Is there any way to open this report?
ThanksPresumably you are using Yukon Beta 1, correct? You cannot use RS 2000 RDLs
on Yukon Beta 1, because RS 2000 uses a later revision of the RDL schema
than Yukon Beta 1. There is a RDL upgrade path from Yukon Beta 1 to RS 2000,
but there is no "downgrade" path from RS 2000 to Yukon Beta 1.
The upcoming Yukon Beta 2 release, RS 2000 (Jan. 2004) and RS 2000 SP1 (June
2004) use identical RDL schema namespaces and therefore reports can be
easily used in all these environments.
