Arunkumar,

 

what version of LV are you using?

Do you use the Office Report Generation Toolkit? If not, what report are you talking about?

Arunkumar,

 

using the (Express)Report.vi you cannot add an image to the header.

It seems to be possible when using Office Report Generation Toolkit for Word.

Arunkumar,

 

when using the Express Report.vi, the only addition to custom header is "Additional Comments". When using the report vis, you can set the header/footer using appropriate functions from the "Report Layout" subpalette.

You cannot add images to footer/header though using those functions.

Arunkumar,

 

when using the Office functions of reporting, you can for instance use Word Insert Object.vi to add an image in your Word document.

You can implement your own header/footer text creation and include that VI in this functionality.

I am not aware that you can create the header by using Set Report Header Text.vi and the modify that text. But as this VI is not password protected, you can use the code as reference for your custom implementation.
