  • 1) I want to export it to .doc format is it possible.

    A) Exporting to Word (.doc) is not supported in SSRS 2005 out of the box. This format option was added in SSRS 2008. You can try a third-party product like Aspose, but I have never used it so can't vouch for it.

    2) i want to block certain export format only in one report is it possible.

    A) Blocking/Exposing report types is done through the RSReportServer.config file and it is a system wide change that will affect all of your reports. Depending on how you are rendering the report, if you displaying as a web page using a url, you can use URL access parameters to hide the toolbar for that one report then create one or more textboxes with actions to re-run the report and again using URL access parameter to render in the desired format.

    3) is ther any other control or report items available other than default one like, org chart etc.

    A) There are other report items available from third party vendors again. Dundas, for example, has many other advanced chart controls that are not available out of the box.

  • thanks for clear explanation

    thanks in advance.
