Exporting Reports creates a blank window

I have created a few reports and linked them to a URL on a web page. (sample link is : http://servername/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fMy_Reports%2fBacklog+Report&rs:Command=Render )

When the user clicks on the link above it renders correctly but when the user tries to export the report to any format on the list, it launches another window with the following URL : http://servername/ReportServer/Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd?ExecutionID=czq4c355dmsxdy55dif1nm55&ControlID=ad74d68e-2a9c-430f-8655-dd0e6c46f831&Culture=1033&UICulture=9&ReportStack=1&OpType=Export&FileName=Backlog+Report&ContentDisposition=OnlyHtmlInline&Format=EXCEL

which then prompts the user to Open or Save the report.

How do I stop this window from opening ? or how can I make it close automatically ?

Please advise.

I know if I can change the ContentDisposition somehow to AlwaysInline then this extra window will not show during the export but it keeps defaulting to OnlyHTMLInline for ContentDisposition.

Thanks in advance.

Change ContentDispostion = AlwaysInline.|||

I had the same issue, which results from an IE hotfix that is applied to all the workstations at my work site. To get around this issue, I created a WEB project in Visual Studio 2005 and added in the ReportViewer web control. There is where you can overwrite the default setting for ExportContentDisposition. I changed to "AlwaysInline" to get around the problem.

Exporting data with dynamic fields

Hi,

I have one Query Builder application where user creates queries and generates output with required fields.Then user can export the same to excel (Using farPointSpread properties)
But if no. of records goes beyond 10K it goes too slow or even user machine hangs up. I want to give proper export facility. Can it be given using DTS?

I tried DTS (.vbs) file. but for random field selection it did not work.DTS package asks for new Transactions to be built for every change in Source table structure. It first creates the table in the destination databse and then exports the data.
If I try modify the VB code generated by the package to match with new Source table it does'nt work.

Can anyone tell me what should I do for export the data dynamically i.e. export the tables with differrent structres?

Thanx in advance.|||You should do a helluvalotta programming. DTS sucks, and I don't believe most people on this forum use it for much more than directly transfering defined recordsets.
