Hi,
Is there any way i can restrict my rendering format to PDF for one of my report in Report Manager.
Thanks, brijit
A:
Wrap the report server call and use URL access (or SOAP etc) to deliver a PDF.
http://servername/reportserver?/Sales/YearlySalesSummary&rs:Format=PDF&rs:Command=Render
It's can't be done via Report manager

Yes. You can pass them on the URL too.http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155391(SQL.90).aspxThe downside is that you have to expose the parameters via another method (ASP.NET, Winforms etc).

I understand that.But, my users are accessing the report from Report Manager itself. They can even subscribe the report execution. Then they will be having all the rendering formats that is common to the reporting services. right?

Here we go (courtesy of a colleague) http://www.sqljunkies.com/WebLog/roman/archive/2004/12/12/5506.aspx Downside: I think (not tried myself) it applies to the install, not an individual report.
