How do I add a list as an input UI element in SSRS 2008?

I need to add a list / drop down list to a report in a Visual Studio Business Intelligence project, allowing users to filter the DataSet by the ID of the object selected in the list. I heard it is possible, but there is no way to add the list to the toolbar in Visual Studio and look at the Report Definition on microsoft.com, there is nothing about the list.

What am I doing wrong here?

I learned how to do what I was doing. There is no list option as I thought about it. Instead, if you add a parameter to the report and use the "available values" section to associate the parameter with, for example, query results, then a list / dropdown list appears in the header, prompting you to select from the list that is the query result.



What I wanted to do. I was still thinking about Asp.Net terms, although for example a list is the same as a textbox. I couldn't figure out why the textbox would be an option in the toolbar, but not in some way like a list.

there is no listbox

or dropdownlist

as a built-in control in Reporting Services. you must have an application (web / win) for this to work and pass your data as a parameter to your report.
