i want to set excel as a default export option for SSRS report, can any one do need fullenter image description here
I don't think that this can be done within the SSRS report manager. There are no properties that I know of to control the export options.
You might be able to create your own interface with C# or VB but that would be a lot of work.

I have SAP Crystal Reports 2011 and use it to edit reports we use with JobBOSS ERP system. These reports were all put in place before I started here and am just now learning Crystal Reports. I am trying to edit the reports but am having issues.
So when I open the report in Crystal Reports the Field Explorer is showing that the file being used to pull fields into the reports is a TTX file. I know nothing about TTX files and assumed I could just find the data in my tables and import it in but apparently that wont mix well from what I am understanding. I have no clue what to do with the TTX and being able to populate the fields on the page with data from another table.
Where do I start with this? All of my forms use the TTX to pull data. Does anyone have any resources that can help me with this?
To change this report, you must use the report version in the JobBoss production report folder (.rpt). Save the .rpt to a work area. Make changes and then place back in the folder retrieved from. You can add tables to this kind of report but cannot change the .ttx table. The report must be run from within Jobboss. Save the original .rpt to a save folder first. Call with questions.
I have a report where I am using an on-demand sub-report. But my user is viewing this report from a java application. So whenever he run the report he will view this report in PDF.
Report format:
country name location sales
<on-demand subreport>
Now once he run the report he will get all the above fields data in PDF format.
So now if clicked on location field data in PDF will he get the sub-report's data.
PDF isn't intended to generate dynamic content. As such, you'll need to find an approach that will render the desire content in a static manner.
I would suggest that you parameterize your report to display one of these options:
main only
main + subreport
The PDF will either contain the main report's content or the main and subreport's content.

If you are using BusinessObjects Enterprise (BOE), you could use the openDocument API to generate a new report instance or the most-recently-generated instance. I don't know if Crystal Reports Server supports this feature for certain.
If you are rendering reports in a Java application, then you will need to a way to intercept the hyperlinks--a server, most likely. By in large, you'd be reinventing Crystal Reports Server/BOE.
Basically I understand as you need two thing.
you need to generate a report and export/generate in pdf.
in you need to attach link or something like editable field pdf.
For First answer, you can easily hide/show of sub-report in crystal report side. but not after report generate in pdf.
So for second answer, you need to pdf professional or editable allow version. after you get that you simply use itextsharp.dll (to generate pdf from asp.net-see below link).
So finally I think, does not needed crystal report.

I am using SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 for reporting. When we export the report to Excel, the footer image or textbox is not exported. Header image is getting exported successfully.
Does anybody know a solution for this?
Jon is correct they are exported but on opening the file you wont automatically see them as they are not displayed in "Normal" view, in 2007 switch to "Page Layout" view. not sure what its called in other versions of excel.
Note: You also might want to read this as it relates to the use of Headers/Footers in RDLC and exporting them to Excel.
Footers in Reporting Services are exported in Excel.
To see them, you need to click View -> Headers and Footers (in Excel)
I am working on Jasper server 4.5 version.
I need to know the details on whether i can set the Export to Excel for a report.
In more details all that i need is to have only one export option available for that report.
But at the same time the changes done for this report should not affect the export options of other reports.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can export your reports as .xls or .xlsx files. If you are using 4.5 professional, check out the JasperReports Server User Guide in the documentation. There is a section on navigating and exporting reports. JasperReports Server allows you to export reports in many formats.
As for report-specific export options: because the exporting buttons are at the application level and not unique to each report, I think it might be difficult to enable only Excel exports for one report and not have that flow over into your other reports without extreme customization. But maybe someone else can offer a suggestion.
I was talking to somebody a recently who mentioned it was possible to store reports created using Crystal Reports as XML files.
Upon Googling this, I can't find anything suggesting that this is the case (using data stored in XML in a report, yes, but actually storing the report, the part stored by default as a .rpt file, no.
Am I correct in assuming that there was in fact some sort of misunderstanding between us and it in fact not possible to do this?
It is not possible to store the report template in XMLformat. XML is supported as export format of the "rendered" report only.
For what purpose do you need the report template in XML format. There is a Java reporting solution called Crystal-Clear which can read the Crytsal Reports report template and save it as XML report template. The other way round this does not work. After you created a XML file you cannot open the report with Crystal Reports again. But you can work with the report using Crystal-Clear which is coming with a GUI-designer too.
Use the Crystal Reports SDK to convert the RPT file format to XML.
There's a GitHub project that will convert RPT to XML. The intent of the tool is to use for diffs, so I don't know if there is a XML to RPT converter. Crystal Reports certainly can not take the XML file and open it like a .RPT file.
At least in version 8.5 XML-file is one of the supported export destinations just like PDF, Excel or Word. Seems unlikely they'd have removed the support in later versions.
I just tested in Crystal Reports 10.
Open up the report you want to export, click on export in the file menu, and at least in CR 10, XML is at the very bottom.
Next a screen appears, asking for directory and base file name to save to. According to the Window it uses "Crystal Markup Language" XML Format
