I have created a SSRS report with multiple nested sub reports as it iterates through data in each sub-report. Upon exporting to PowerPoint the only editable data is the from the first or ‘main’ report and all of the information from the sub-reports is not editable in PowerPoint and appears as an image. I am wondering if this is a limitation of sub reports or if there is a way to get around this? Thank you

I was trying to create one report with several pages doing this:
I've created like 3 reports with different embedded datasets (each report has nothing to do with the others).
I've created a main report where i put the 3 subreports, overlaying them.
In SSRS web view i can change the the pages in order to see each subreport in a different page.
The problem is when i tried to export the report in PDF, there is not a "page break" so the first page contain all the reports overlayed.... this is a big issue....
Is there a way to fix this?
You can enclose sub reports in a rectangle and provide page break properties to the rectangle.
1st sub-report should be within 1st rectangle and as is.
You can also make sure, sub-reports are one-by-one in the design for proper page breaks.
I have a cross tab. I hide an entire column by setting the style to one containing "display: none". This looks great in html and pdf.
But when exporting to Excel, the column appears with empty values.
How do I force the excel export to not show the column?
Have you tried using the visibility expression for the column instead of the style display:none?
I think setting width to 0 only hide the column (when exporting to excel) when the report Layout is "Fixed Layout".
Unfortunately "Fixed Layout" is a pain to use when you have a crosstab with lots of columns, as Excel starts throwing errors if the width gets too big.
I'm using birt report designer for create a report: in my report i have a crossTab with dynamic number of column because i'll do a query on DB with the parameters that the user post. Using the PageBreak property of the column Area in the crossTab i have no problem viewing my report in web browser or exporting this in excel file but when i export my report in PDF some column is cut.
I realize that i view all the column of the cross tab only if i set 'Fit to whole page' exporting the report:
Anyone know how i can manage the export in pdf in different way or if i can set 'Fit to whole page' for default?
This seems like a simple question but I cannot find anything on adding a tablix control to an SSRS report.
I don't see this control in the toolbox in bids or in report builder 3.0.
I'm using SSRS 2008 R2.
Can someone kindly tell me how to add this control to a report?
I found the answer here:
The table, matrix, and list data regions are represented on the ribbon by templates for the underlying tablix data region. When you add one of these templates to a report, you are actually adding a tablix data region that is optimized for a specific data layout. By default, a table template displays detail data in a grid layout, a matrix displays group data in a grid layout, and a list displays detail data in a free-form layout.
Could it be any more unintuitive?
I have the header in my report on SSRS frozen so it scrolls down as I scroll down the page. Is it possible to keep this header frozen when I export the report to excel so it will do the same in excel?
As far as I know, you can't do so with table headings. However, items that appear in the Page Header section of a report do get exported to frozen heading rows in Excel.
