how do add a hyperlink to the parameter section of a SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services report

Expert: I have a SSRS report with 2 textboxes in the upper parameter section of my report which allows user to enter input parameters followed by clicking a View Report button. In addition to the 2 parameter input textboxes I want to add a hyperlink which will allow user to return to the application's main home page (dot net asp webpage).
I am new toSSRS and don't know if this can be done and want to know the steps how to add  the hyperlink to parameter section of the report?

I don't believe you can do much to modify what the top parameter section looks like in SSRS report viewer but what you can do is hide the default parameter section and make your own html interface that contains the textboxes for the parameters as well as the hyperlink back to the home page. Your interface would also have a button similar to "View Report" that when you click it, assigns all of the parameters of the report viewer control based on your textbox inputs and then refreshes the report.
