Do Reporting Services in SQL Server 2008 support export to CSV? I only see Excel/Word/PDF in the dropdown list on in the SSRS localhost server when previewing report. I found in internet that SSRS 2008 seems to support CSV but I don't see it; is it Express limitation? I haven't found any notes about this limitation.

A:
CSV export is not supported in the Express edition:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281020.aspx
The following list describes the features that are documented in SQL Server Books Online, but cannot be used in this edition:
- Scheduled report processing, caching, snapshots, subscriptions, and delivery are not supported.
- Analysis Services, Oracle, XML, SAP, SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), OLE DB, and ODBC data sources are not supported.
- Remote data sources are not supported. Reports that are hosted in a SQL Server Express report server must retrieve SQL Server relational data from a local SQL Server Express Database Engine instance.
- Ad hoc reporting through semantic models and Report Builder is not supported.
- TIFF (Image), XML, and CSV rendering extensions are not supported.
- The Reporting Services API extensible platform for delivery, data processing, rendering, and security is not supported.
- Custom authentication extensions and custom role assignments are not supported. You must map existing Windows domain user and group accounts to predefined role definitions.
- Custom report items are not supported.
- Managing a long-running report process is not supported. Specifically, you cannot use the Manage Jobs feature in Report Manager to stop report processing.
- Scale-out deployment is not supported.
- SharePoint integrated mode is not supported.
- Report Builder 2.0 is not supported. Report Builder 2.0 can connect to a SQL Server Express database on the local computer or on a remote report server.

Thanks (sigh). I didn't find this using Google.
