Report Server Subscription e-mail in MS Word format

I am wanting to set-up a subscription to e-mail my reports in MS Word format (either .doc or .rtf) and I do not have the option on my company's report server version.

I have read that it is possible, though I don't have the option. Is this a change to report server, or maybe is our version not updated?

I can e-mail the report out in the following formats:

XML File with report data

CSV (comma delimited)

TIFF File

Acrobat (PDF) file

Web Archive (default)

Excel

Let me know if I am just expecting too much, or if there is something that needs to be updated on our report server.

Thank you,

T.J. Bernard

I have a SQL Report published to the report server, and set-up to e-mail to select users. The users have requested this report appear in an MS Word format (.doc or .rtf). According to a book I have, this is possible, but on our report server we do not have this option.

The options we have are:

XML File and Report Data

CSV (comma delimited)

TIFF File

Acrobat (PDF) file

Web Archive (default)

Excel

Is there some update that needs to be run to our server to allow this format? Can it be programmed some how?

Let me know.

Thank you,

T.J. Bernard

TJ Barnard,

Sorry MSWord is not a format for exporting in SQL Reporting service unless you purchase a Third Party Product.
