Reporting Services to MS Word Questions

Hello

I am using SQL RS to export a report to HTML with Office Web Components and then by clicking File->Edit with Microsoft Word, I get the report into Word format.

The report displays fine in the HTML with Office Web Components format, however the content gets condensed to about 3 inches in width and the page margins are off when I get this report into Word.

Is there a way to fix this formatting issues in Word?

Also if anyone has a better idea of how to get data from SQL RS to MS Word, please feel free to comment.
Thanks in advance for the help!We currently do not have a native export into Microsoft Word format. It is high on our list for a post-SQL 2005 release. You might take a look at SoftArtisans, a 3rd party that provides this functionality, http://officewriter.softartisans.com/officewriter-250.aspx.|||Is there any estimated date when a patch or release of SQL RS will be available that exports directly to Word format? This effects our decision and how we will view costs.|||

We have the same dillemma...

We are currently evaluating another reporting tool due to couple of reasons:

1)Mainly because SQL Server RS does not support direct export to MS Word /RTF.

2) No support for export of nested data regions to Excel?

Any idea when these features will be available?

Thanks a lot,

Reporting Services Problem

I have a URL link to a report such as in a html page. Here is a typical example

<a href = "List">http://www.myserver.com/ReportServer?%2fCustomReports%2fOrganization>List of Managers</a>

This works great and renders the report

However after I return to the calling page and perform a POST such as

<form ACTION="http://www.myserver.com/Catch.asp" METHOD="post" name="frm1" id="frm1"
<INPUT id=Var1 name = Var1 type=hidden value="valuetopost">

The variables Var1 are never passed if I do this AFTER linking to the report. It always works if I do this BEFORE calling the report. I can only get this to work again by closing out the html page and starting again

Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong?You should try posting this to SQL Server Reporting Services forum.
