Is it possible to launch a report rendered in excel or pdf instead of report viewer?

On my reporting services website, I would like to browse to a report,
click on it and have it render to excel or pdf by instead of report
viewer. Is this possible? I know that I can create rs scripts that run
a report and render to excel, but would like to users to experience
this on the web if possible. I couldn't find this option.you can try to send the format you want in the URL:
http://localhost/......&rs:Format=Excel

I'm sure there is a list of authorized formats, so I presume there is a
default rendering option.

portal if you want to do that. I recommend against doing this. HTML is much
much faster and having all your reports default to PDF is just not a good
idea.

Is it possible to know whether report is still executing in report viewer? (Web Forms)

Hi All,

I have a Report Viewer and a Exit button in Web Form. Untill the report is processed i don't want to enable the button.

so Is it possible to know whether report is still executing in report viewer ?

I am using Remote Mode.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

YOu can use the asynchronous methods for rendering the report, if the report did not raise the event of finishing you can be sure that the report is already running.

Jens K. Suessmeyer.

http://www.sqlserver2005.de

I am using HistoryID to generate the report so i can't use the asynchronous thing.

Below are the lines which are generating the report.

ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = new Uri(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ReportServerPath"].ToString());

ReportViewer1.ShowParameterPrompts = false;

ReportViewer1.ServerReport.HistoryId = strHistoryID; -- Assigning HistoryID

ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportPath = strReportPath;

ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh();

Report is rendering asynchronously from the rest of the web page.(i.e. Report Viewer AsyncRendering attribute is set to true)

Is it necessay to publish report to Sql Server in VS 2005

We can design .rdlc in VS2005, and veiw the report in Report Viewer.
Is it necessay to publish report to Sql Server in VS 2005?With the two controls shipping with VS 2005 (my understanding is that the
controls come with Visual Studio) what you want it possible. These controls
either work with the Reporting Services or can work in local mode. In local
mode you give it the report and the data, no server is needed at all.
VS 2005 will have both a winform and webform control.
Note that these controls do not render to as many formats.

Just a quick note to let you know about the availability of my article
(http://www.devx.com/dbzone/Article/28047) about ad-hoc reporting with RS
2005. It explains the major components of Microsoft Reporting Services'
ad-hoc architecture and semantic model, and walks you through an end-to-end
example that demonstrates how to author, manage, and deliver ad-hoc reports.
