Rectangles in report footers are not exported to Excel.

The following limitation apply to rectangles. If a report body background image is displayed in the report, the image is rendered as a worksheet background image. The Excel rendering extension only supports the background image of the report body. The following limitations apply to images:īackground images for report items are ignored because Excel does not support background images for individual cells. To work around this issue, increase the width of the text box in the report. If a text box's padding settings are less than 3.75 points and is just barely wide enough to accommodate the text, the text may wrap in Excel. The text effect "Overline" is not supported in Excel.Įxcel adds a default padding of approximately 3.75 points to the left and right sides of cells. Font size, font face, decoration, and font style are the only formatting that is supported on individual text within an Excel cell. Text boxes are rendered within one Excel cell. The evaluated expression is exported as the contents of each Excel cell. The value of each text box is evaluated during report processing. Text box values that are expressions are not converted to Excel formulas. The following limitations apply to text boxes and text: This limitation does not apply to current (.xlsx) Excel files. In Excel 2003, approximately 1000 characters are displayed in an Excel cell on the worksheet but up to the maximum number of characters can be edited in the formula bar. If the report item that controls whether another item is toggled is not in the previous or next row or column of the item being toggled, the outline is disabled also.įor more details about Excel limitations, see Excel specifications and limits. In outlines, Excel permits up to seven nested levels only. The maximum number of worksheets is not defined in Excel, but external factors, such as memory and disk space, might causes limitations to be applied. The rest of the cell contents is still within the cell (up to Excel's max number of characters of 32,767).īecause the maximum row height is 409 points, if the defined height of the cell in the report is something larger than 409 points, Excel splits the cell contents into multiple rows. If the contents of the row cause the row height to increase beyond 409 points, the Excel cell shows a partial amount of text up to 409 points. If this is exceeded, the renderer displays an error message. The maximum number of characters in a cell is limited to 32,767. The renderer does not verify that the column width is less than the limit. The maximum column width is limited to 255 characters or 1726.5 points. Microsoft Excel places limitations on exported reports due to the capabilities of Excel and its file formats. For more information about securing reports, see Secure Reports and Resources. To mitigate the risk of inadvertently running malicious scripts, open rendered reports only from trusted sources. If another user then views the report and clicks the rendered parameter contents, the user may inadvertently execute the malicious script or link. If a report parameter is not tied to a query parameter and the parameter values are included in the report, it is possible for a report user to type expression syntax, script, or a URL into the parameter value, and render the report to Excel. I think this is what you want, if you have any further requirement, could you please describe it in more detail? We would give you some resolution or workaround.When you define a parameter of type String, the user is presented with a text box that can take any value. Switch to Navigation tab, click the radiobutton of ‘Jump to URL’ and type in the expression ,here is just a example:Ĭlick here and export the report to excel when you move the mouse to it ,the mouse will become a hand ,then left-click, it will jump out a dialog box to indicate user whether the excel file should be saved, opened or canceled. Then right-click the textbox and select Properties. Just as kishan1901 said, you can add a textbox to your report and type in the words “ Click here and export the report Based on your scenario, you want to add a link on the SSRS report file, and then click it you can export the report into “Excel” format.
