This add-in is installed on your SQL Reporting Services server and the development clients after that you just write reports and format them. It's that easy. These are not wingdings fonts, they are the full graphics files in full resolution, like in the real application. This does not use hard coded lookups to find the values, if Project Professional changes, the report changes, which then changes the indicator, your add-in does all the work, you just point to indicators column and call your add-in code and an image of the graphical indicator is inserted in the cell of the report.
