ReportViewer: How to load report as an embeddedresource in another assembly using reflection?

Question

I'm not really sure how to go about this. I created a generic class to open reports up for my application. The reports are contained in another DLL that is not referenced as an embedded resource though.

If I reference the DLL I can just do:
Viewer.LocalReport.ReportEmbeddedResource = "SomeLibrary.ReportName.rdlc";

However, since I'm not referencing the DLL I figure I have to get the report via reflection. This is where I'm stuck. I'm really not sure how to go about this.

It looks like it's only possible to load reports this way from the executable assembly. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.reporting.webforms.localreport.reportembeddedresource(v=VS.80).aspx for more information.

It may not be possible to load reports this way.
