Q: 

Reporting Services - export to Excel in landscape format?

Hey,

is there a way to export XLS files in landscape format by default?

Thanks :-)

+1  A: 

Not sure of Excel, but found with export to PDF that setting the report size to a landcape format changed the orientation.

How would I do that?

Set the report height to 210mm and the width to 297mm. That is the standard size for an A4 in landscape.

I did, nothing happened, strange...

Sorry, as I said I've only tried it with PDF exports.

Yes, I tried it with PDF as well...clicking the print button on the ReportViewer control now says that it is landscape, but exporting to pdf is still portrait format. Did I miss anything?

A: 

It seems setting the size works when the PDF is printer, the format is landscape when I click the print button on the ReportViewer control. But saving the files still doesnt work ... trying to print the saved file is still portrait format. Ideas?

Thanks!

It works now, I did not see that it was landscape format already, shame on me. THANKS!
