call report directly in pdf

hi there,

i want to call a report directly in pdf not in rdl.

anyone knows this?

What do you mean 'call it'? Do you mean you want the report to display in PDF by default?
I think this is just a matter of calling it with the right paramters. Ibelieve if you look at the reporting services books online there issomething about passing what format the report is displayed in when itis called.
I am assuming you will have a link from someplace (application, email, etc) to this report?

I just sent out an email concerning this - i hope this helps u out...

This is just an FYI for the Microsoft Reports:

We can suppress the parameters and exporting functionality of Microsoft reports via the command line.

We can hide parameters by appending &rc:Parameters=false to the url as shown below

/ReportServer?/samplereports/abc&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=HTML4.0&rc:Parameters=false

And we can change the format by appending a format line as shown below:

We can change the format to PDF,Excel or any of the other supported file types.

/ReportServer?/samplereports/abc&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=HTML4.0&rc:Parameters=false
