Probably the easiest way would be to use the RS script utility (rs.exe)
. You could then call this from the Exec Proc Task. You could
change/write the script dynamically via an ActiveX Script Task depending
on how much flexibility you require.

Saying that I don't know how write an RS script to run a report, but I'm
sure there are plenty of people who do over in the RS group.
