Is the image location always the same, like a company logo?
In VS2003 the insert picture in the right click menu inserts a picture from a location you choose. I have added the logo this way before, I just had to include the logo in the install files of the install project. That way on a client machine the logo is added to the hard drive in the same location referenced on the report.
If you are talking about passing the image location to the report as a parameter, I can't be much help there.

your other option would be:
-create a dataset that supports images
-create a report that references this dataset
-load data in the dataset
-use the dataset as datasource for the report and show the report in the viewer.

Hope that helps.
