SSRS 2005 - Mutilple Excel Tabs
Jun 5, 2007
My company is trying to convert existing reports to Reporting Services 2005... we need to have reports that export to excel with multiple sheets have the group name as the tab label. I can't find anywhere how this can be done. Can someone please tell me when this will be available? We have the latest service pack and still can't get this done... Our large customers are used to getting their reports this way, and the document map with sheet1,sheet2..etc.. will not be a suitable option. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.... seems I am not the only one waiting on this one...

I love SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), but it doesnt let me name the tabs when exporting to Excel. The feature is well documented as not being available.
So I figured I can use the cell(1,1) on each tab to contain the tab name, and have an SSIS job poll a file share, open the file, read the cell, rename tabs, rename the file, and then email out the file. Polling the directory and emailing is a piece of cake, but I can't find any way to rename a tab without having Excel loaded on the SERVER. Not to mention instantiating an entire instance of Excel on the SERVER every time I want to do this.
I want to leverage SSRS, and preserve the formatting of the excel file, which is why I don't just dump the data in with SSIS to begin with.
Anybody have any ideas?

I know from experience that the Excel connection mechanisms are somewhat limited. I was wondering if anyone has come across a solution to this problem.
We receive an excel file from a business line. Basically a list of account mods for a given month. Due to the tabular nature of Excel, sometimes the amount of mods exceeds the limits of one tab and has to roll over into a second tab. The names of the tabs reflect the file creation date, which often is the last day of the month, but not always. Here is a question related to this-
Is there a way to "query" a the list of tabs in an Excel file, so that I could store that record set in an SSIS variable, use it to loop through all the tabs? If no, can you think of a way to somehow get the value of the tab name or names so that I can use it to dynamically set the OpenRowset value of the Excel Data Source?
Thanks for your help, everyone!

In my SSIS package I have a loop container that I am running the same code against 4 servers.
I have the package export the SQL data to an Excel spreadsheet that has multiple tabs.
Is there a way I can change the tab on the fly or do I need to create a Connection for the same spreadsheet 4 times
Each Connection pointing to a different tab?
I tried to set up a expression for the Excel Connection Manager to use the InitialCatalog for the tab and change it
based on the script in the loop however this causes the following error:
An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".
Cannot create an OLE DB accessor. Verify that the column metadata is valid.
Thanks in advance

I have two local boxes. On one I have ssis 2008 r2, the other a new install of 2014 enterprise. I have an excel file that both machines can open (ext .xlsx) with 64 bit excel 2010 on the same share location.On my 2008 r2 installation, when I create a dft then go thru adding an excel source and let ssis create a conn mgr, ssis can see the one and only tab in the source's "name of excel sheet" drop down.On my 2014 installation, I see a message "no tables or views could be loaded" in the drop down after going thru the same steps. I don't know if it matters in 2014 but I set 32 bit mode on both.Am I missing some sort of addin on my ssis 2014 install? I cant say for certain what version of excel created this file.

We are running 2014 enterprise. Our users love to see related report sections saved in separate tabs of the same spreadsheet. Is there a way to control how ssrs will save a report to excel when it comes  to tabs? Â
Are subreports a/the way (and only way) to do this?Â
By sections I mean they might have a grid, then another grid, then a graph then another graph and so on.Â
What property controls the tab name? What if they want to combine 2 or more sections into one tab?

Hi,
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]".
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
We are using the SSRS 2005 for developing reports. In that I have some problems/doubts.
My problems are:
I developed / designed the report using the SSRS 2005. And I uploaded the reports in to the report server. I can able to view the reports in the preview section as well thro the browser.
Problem 1:
Reports are having the huge amount of data (For: report is having > 800 Pages). So, when ever I am trying to export in to EXCEL that time I am getting MemoryOutOfException. If I having the less number of pages that time I getting the result. How I can export the report into excel with out MemoryOutOfException.
Problem 2:
Some Excel sheets are having more data for ex: 75000. In EXCEL it self we are having the limitation we can not create more than 65536 rows per sheet. So If I want to export these 75000 records into excel how I do it.
Problem 3:
For delivering the reports I am using file share subscription method in SSRS. For example my reports are having the huge amount of data. That time I getting the following status in report server €œFailure writing file Weekly Install Base Report @timestamp: An error occurred during rendering of the report.€?"
Software Platform:
1. SQL Server Reporting Services 2005
2. SQL Server 2000 Data base
3. Microsoft Office 2003
Thanks

I am getting an error: "Damage to the file was so extensive that repairs were
not possible. Excel attemted to recover your formulas and values, but
some data may have been lost or corrupted." in some instances when
exporting toexcel.
The report is no different than any othere report. This report uses rectagles and text boxes to control layout with two tables but it's pretty straight forward. This only happens for this particular report when exported only to Excel. I am using SQL2005 SP1.
Any ideas, thoughts, or references are welcome.

We are experiencing problems with reporting services built-in Export to Excel. Basically, the columns get wrapped in Excel, which frustrates users who need to pivot and sort(ie the point of downloading to Excel). Is there a method for removing the column wrapping? Please help

Hi
When I export a report to XLS, I get a huge file size, and performance really takes a hit.
When I copy the Excel Data, and Paste Special - Values into a new excel, the file size shrinks considerably again.
When I export to CSV instead, the file size is halved, and the processing time comes down from 5-6 mins to 10 seconds.
I use SQl 2005 with SP2, so some of the old problems with RS2000 do not apply.
I suspect SSRS uses XML to export to excel. Is there some way I can get over this problem?
TIA

I've inherited a SSRS project from a former employee. I've gotten the reports moved to the Report Server on my local machine (which runs Sql Server 2005 with SSRS), and other users are having no problems viewing reports.
However, when I try to create a new Report Project using the Business Intelligence Project type in VS 2005, I can't view the RDL files in any way except plain-old XML. I have no Data | Layout | Preview tabs. If I create the RDL using the Report Wizard, I can still take the rdl files and deploy them successfully. But I can never edit them in Layout mode. Is something misconfigured or not installed properly? Thanks for your help.

I need some help. I am writing a report in SSRS 2005 that I then need to export to Excel. When I put a report header I would expect the header to not display in the Excel spreadsheet until the Print Preview or the Print. The report footer works just fine I put some text in the footer, and it shows up in the footer. The header though, shows up as a row in the Excel spreadsheet that then causes columns to merge. How do I get the report header to act like a page header?

Is it possible to write SSRS 2008 reports to run on an existing SSRS 2005 server?
If yes, what do I need to do to be able to write SSRS 2008 reports on my developer PC that will run on the SQL 2005 Server (which also has SSRS 2005 installed on it)?
I installed Visual Studio 2008 beta on the development PC and it appears that it needs SSRS installed on it too. So I installed SQL 2008 SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services) and SQL 2008 Workstation Components onto the developer PC. Next I run the SQL 2008 "Reporting Services Configuration" tool. When I click on the "Web Service URL" section it hangs indefinitely and I have to force it closed.
The developer PC is Windows Vista Business.
Any suggestions on making this work, or any other information that you can think of that would allow me to use Visual Studio 2008 and the SQL 2008 "Report Designer Preview" tool to develop SSRS reports that will run on the SQL 2005 SSRS server?
Thanks!

Hi All,
I am creating a report that uses a list that has page breaks. The breaks are grouped by a certain field. When exporting the report to excel, the page breaks translate to individual tab sheets. The question is can I name the tab sheets according to the field grouping applied to the list. Example the field grouping is department name. Therefore the tabs should be:
Sheet1 = Finance
Sheet2 = Human Resource
Sheet3 = Project Management
Thanks & Regards,
Fadzli

Please help me on how am I going to solve this problem, or any workaround on how to solve this.
Any reply are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I created a report with multiple line per group and detail. When I export the report to Excel it expands all of the drill downs. Report with a single group and detail line exports to Excel and shows the drill downs for you to either expand or collapse. Is there a way to have multiple group and / or details and have Excel show the drill downs?

I am generating a Report from Sql Data Source in Sql Server 2005 and viewing the Report in Report viewer control of Visual Studio 2005.
The data in the Data Source contains string with multiple spaces (for example €œ Test String €œ) but when they get rendered in Report viewer control, multiple spaces gets converted to single space €? Test String €œ.
I tried following solutions
1) Replacing spaces with €œ €?
2) Inserting <pre> tag before the string and </pre> tag after the string (Also tried <Pre> instead of <pre>)
But in all the cases result is same. The Report Viewer control is showing €œ €? instead of space and €œ<Pre>€? tag instead of preserving spaces.
Please provide me a solution so that spaces can be preserved in Report Viewer.
