SQL 2000 Report Services Incomplete Export To Excel
Dec 10, 2005
I have a report that I am trying to export to excel. The export seems to work but the data in the spread sheet is incomplete. The document map is completely exported but the work sheets are not. The links in the document map stop being links after the first occurrence of the lowest level detail. All the data is visible in Report services and all the data exports to PDF. There are 5 levels and 124 pages in the report in the report. I have other reports on the same server that are larger (7 levels and 512 pages) and they work just fine. They export to excel with no problem. Any ideas or input would be very appreciated. Ayla
I have a Sales report with 3 lists each being nested inside of the other and they also each contain a Matrix. Top list is for Region, followed by District and then State. I have page breaks setup so that each region appears on it's own page, followed by each District summary appearing at the top of the page with a breakdown on that page for that Districts states. In total the report exported to PDF or printed runs around 19 pages. This report when exported to PDF or printed works fine.
When I export it to excel I get a full document map on the first worksheet. I then get 10 worksheets of information breaking off the last 9. The document map links reflect the absence of this data by not actually being links from that point on. If I remove page breaks so that the number of pages created are less than 10 excel worksheets the export works fine and my document map links are created.
So does the export to Excel have a limitation on the number of Worksheets that can be created? In my case it appears to happen at 10 each time. Oh and by the way I've attempted this in VS.2003 and 2005 and SQL Reporting Services 2000 and 2005 for the same reports.
When I open the spreadsheet in Excel 2000, it works fine. When I try to print, it crashes Excel. In testing, I narrowed it down to the Header/Footer, because it also crashes when I go to Page Setup and click on the header/footer tab.
However, I can print the same spreasheet from Excel 2007.
Am I just dealing with a "you need to upgrade all your clients" situation, or is there a known issue with certian formatting that is passed out with reports that is not supported by older versions of Excel?
I am using Reporting Services 2005 SP2 to serve up the report that is exported to Excel.
I have a ssrs report having 2 tables in with 4 columns in each. When I go to export option in preview I can see all data coming in one excel sheet, But I am trying to get 2 tables in 2 different pages in Excel when I export.First page of excel comes with first table data with 4 columns and second page of excel comes with second table data with 4 columns .
I am exporting the ssrs report with Execl sheet but iam getting this error in excel sheet"The number in this cell is formatted as text or preceded by an apostrophe ".
I am having difficulty in exporting a report to Excel that has drill-down grouping created in SSRS 2008 R2. I can export with the report expanded or with just the summary and both look fine, but when it gets to Excel it looses the toggle ability which I need for it to retain.
I have a SSRS 2012 report which have few columns with long text. They appear good when viewed in browser. However, when I export it to excel data is shrinking. How can I avoid the data shrinking in excel.
I have a report in that report having some Text boxes and below tables.But the problem is when i export the report into excel textboxes are merged, not getting properly.
I need to create an report from SSRS and then exported it in excel for the user. It has dynamic header/footer and dynamic excel sheet name. The developer told that it is not possible to have both the things dynamic.
I am facing some issue in rendering my SSRS report(2012 version) to excel sheet with color codes. i am using conditional formatting to display the colors. So what is happening is ,take the below expression as an example, for the id = 0, we are not getting white back ground, we are getting some other colors. But the same thing is working fine in SSRS 2008R2.
We mark cells in a report using color names like red, pink, and transparent in the fill expression. In the browser it works correctly. When exported to Excel the colors go to the wrong cells. This worked correctly in SSRS 2008.
I've built a fairly straight forward report in RS that looks normal in preview mode and in PDF format with out any issues.But when I export it to Excel report header is not appearing in each page.Any ideas as to why this is occurring?thanks in advance,Ramesh KS
When I export the report in excel format the chart is displayed as picture. I want it to be displayed as editable chart.Does Office Writer work in this situation and did anyone use Office Writer to accomplish same type of problem.Is there any other method or product we can use instead of the office writer.
I need to export various reports created using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services to ONE Excel workbook (with multiple work sheets - tabs - one for each report).
Is there an option in Reporting services that can allow me that ? Thanks.
We're running SQL Server 2000 and our client is using Excel 2000. When a report is exported to Excel they can't read them. Excel 2003 works fine. We're both on SP4
When I Export SSRS report into Excel , all the Numeric data type field in SSRS reports are converted Text Type. when i used other function except formatcurrency so it's works!!
But it's doesn't work when used formatcurrency function!!! Any solution ?
I have a requirement where the end-user's preferred solution is to export report results from Reporting Services into a spreadsheet so that the user can run a series of Excel macros on the resulting data. This is only going to serve as a quick fix until we develop a longer term solution.
My question is: is there a way to export report results from RS to an existing spreadsheet or spreadsheet template that has the macro code in it, and perhaps even initiate the macro. I would like to avoid the user having to cut and paste from the report spreadsheet to the spreadsheet with the macro in it -- reduce human error.
First off, forgive the ignorance that I'm sure to display in this post. I'm a total newbie with SRSS and have been using it to follow along with the tutorials offered via the SQL Express website. I'm using it strictly for learning on my local machine for the time being.
All had been working well with Reporting Services until I upgraded Vista Ultimate 64-bit (which was running in free 30-day trial unactivated Evaluation mode) sideways to Vista Ultimate Upgrade Edition 64-bit Edition. (Sounds confusing, I know.) I also subsequently installed a SQL Server 2k5 critical update which was recommended by Windows Update.
Now when I attempt to access Report Manager via localhost the "Home page" is incomplete, showing only the SSRS "Home" page header. There are no properites, data sources, config options, etc. outside of links for "Home|Help". I am running IE as an Admin and all the Reporting Services Configuration settings are green.
Also, when I attempt to deploy from VS 2005 I now receive the error: "Permissions granted to user 'NT AuthorityNetwork Service' are insufficient ..."
Some of the settings inside the Report Sever Config are as follows:
Windows Service Identity:
Service Acct: NT AuthorityNetwork Service; Built-in Account: Network Service
Web Service Identity:
Asp.net Service Account; NT AuthorityNetwork Service; Report Server and Manager are both using Classic.Net AppPool
I've attempted for hours to weed through Google and this forum but have repeatedly wound up back where I started and more confused than when I started. I would deeply appreciate any help in resolving this matter.
I was wondering if anyone knew how I could export data from SQL Server to a specific Excel worksheet with an Excel file, such as "Sheet2" or "Sheet3" for example, instead of dropping the data automatically in to Sheet1.
Hi all,In MS SQL Management Console I can right-click on any Table and I havethe option All Tasks > Export Data where I can export the table toExcel. In a View however this isn't there. I have many views I wantto simply export to Excel, but the only way I've found to do it iscreating an ODBC connection to the MS SQL database from MS Access,linking the Views to Access Tables, and exporting from Access. surelythere's someway to export a View to Excel within MS SQL easily likeexporting a table...Thanks ---Alex
I would like to know whether i can export a report to excel from reporting services, with all the column width set to the max width of the text in it(AutoFit Column width), so that the excel report doesn't look cramped.
Messages to the reporting services group get no attention, and Ihaven't been able to find anything on MS support so I am going to tryhere. We have a prticular report, that when exported to Excel throughReporting services exports fine, but has an additional Excel sheetlabeled DocumentMap with bogus code in it and it has the focus bydefault. There is another tab called Sheet1 which has the correctreport data. Any idea how to get rid of this DocumentMap tab/sheet?
I'm not sure if this can be done. There are some threads that say yes and some that say no.
If my report's detail section is hidden unless toggled by group2 is there a way to retain the collapsed entries as collapsed when the report is exp[orted to excel?
Right now when I export to excel the report is all expanded. An export to pdf looks fine but I need to in excel.
I tried this and I must have done something wrong cause it did not work. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2376478&SiteID=1
My orginal report rows are: Table header
Group1 group2 Details
In details I have the visibilty as hidden, toggle item as group2_item.
I did try creating group3 and set it as the the above thread said.
I have created a report in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. After I export it to Excel format, if I try to print it (Hardcopy), my Excel crashes. It shows an error and shut down. I'm using Excel 2000. It even shows me same error when I click on "Print Preview", in Excel.
Everytime I try to print the excel worksheet, a window pops up with the heading "Visual Studio Just-in-Time Debugger". The error is: "An unhandled win32 exception occurred in EXCEL.EXE [3460]".
I need to export a report created in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services to one allready existing Excel workbook document. The report is deployed, so it is the deployed report I want to export. As I can see, the option are just to export to different formats, but not to a specific document
Is there an option in Reporting services that can allow me that ? Thanks.
I have two RDL files, one is main.rdl, the other one is sub.rdl.
In the body of main.rdl, I threw in a subreport that links to sub.rdl. Follow by the subreport is a table, in which has a textbox called mytitle. In the page footer, I added one text box that references to mytitle by using ReportItems!mytitle.Value.
When this report rendered in HTML or PDF format, it worked fine. However, when exporting to excel format, it failed. I figured it is because there isn't a ReportItem in the subreport called mytitle. I tried adding a dummy textbox into the subreport and called it mytitle, but again, no luck.
Did anyone ever encounter the same problem? Is there a work around way?
I have created a Report using Sql Server 2005 Reporting Services. It's a matrix report. When I try to download the report to excel, it gives me the message "
Data Regions within table/matrix cells are ignored.
I manage a Sales MIS Reports System, which has been in Production since 2006 for a Pharma company. The web app is built on ASP.NET with SQL Server Reporting Server 2012. This May we migrated to SQL Reporting Services 2012, as IPad support for reports was required.
A Safari on IPad limitation which we knew of and documented was lack of "Export to Excel" feature for SSRS 2012 reports (only export to .PDF and .TIFF supported). The same report on a desktop browser allows me all export functionality.
But now an overwhelming number of IPad users have come back with the requirement to support "Export to Excel" on the IPad.We were also surprised to discover that few of these users were provided IPads last year and they were accessing the old SSRS 2008 R2 reports (even though we did not support it).
And these users were exporting reports to excel on the IPad since last year. These users are especially annoyed that we broke existing functionality while moving to a new version which was supposed to support IPads.
how we can provide the "Export to Excel" functionality for these IPad users.
