    I did a bit of searching, and near as I can tell, the description is not an accessible property at runtime. So, the best thing I can suggest if you want to show it is very inelegant: Copy the description from the report property page and paste it as a literal value into a textbox.

    I know - not ideal. However the description really should not be changing, so I would think pasting it into a text box would work.
