Extend the metadata

Hi,
I want to add more fields in report list. So instead of just showing the
report name and description, I want hyperlink to some other information as
well. Is it possible? if so how can I do that?
Any help would be highly appreciated
Regards,You can add additonal fields to the table on the report (where you drop the
report fields). Right mouse click on a column and add another column. Then
put some text in the field (like detail ...). I then make it blue and
underlined. The do a right mouse click, properties, advanced properties,
navigation tab and use the jump to URL.

I think this is not what I wanted to know.
What I want to know is when I have created one report, it goes to the main
reports list. That list contains all the reports. Now on that list I want to
add additional columns so before running the report if users want to see
additional information they can do so. For example besides report name I
want to see who actually approved that report or what is the name of the
department this report belongs to.

rendered and any modifications are going to be ignored. I don't think they
would even be accessible by the time the report runs. If you can get the
extra information from a database then you can have an additional dataset
that you get this information from.
