We are using data driven subscription for reports. Reports with PDF as attachment is working, but reports with Excel as attachment is not working.
Use EXCELOPENXML as the render format for Excel. This works for me with Data Driven subscriptions.

The EXCELOPENXML extension defines the Excel renderer for current (.xlsx) Excel files. The EXCEL extension defines the Excel 2003 version. Visible = "false" indicates the Excel 2003 renderer is hidden.

I recently migrated our SQL Reporting Services from 2008 to 2012.
We have a number of subscriptions setup that go to managers and most of them like to receive the report as an Excel Spreadsheet.
These seem to get delivered as an email, that is then attached to another email so the manager received an email with a .msg they then have to open, to then open the excel spreadsheet.
Is there anyway to change this behaviour so it is just the email with the excel spreadsheet on it.
I am writing a report and one of the sources resides in a Google docs spreadsheet. Is it possible to use that spreadsheet as a datasource in SSRS?
Is this doc spreadsheet Excel file? If so , you can use ODBC driver and use the Excel file as data source. See:
http://hussain-msbi.blogspot.com/2012/07/create-ssrs-report-using-excel-data.html
Otherwise you have to custom a data process extension so that SSRS can read the data.
Unfortunately it is not possible to use a google docs spreadsheet as a direct datasource for SSRS. You would need to make use of an API to download your data locally into a flat file format (such as csv). From there you can access the flat file as an SSRS datasource
I am currently working on a simple report in Microsoft Report Builder 3.0 but it needs to be exported to Excel and sent to different vendors.
Is it possible to Export a report into individual Excel Spreadsheets, not pages of one Excel Spreadsheet?
Or if this is not possible, what would the best approach be?
This can be done after you have deployed your report to a Report Manager or SharePoint portal - it's called a Data Driven Subscription:

I have data in access in the form of a table. I need to export it to excel in the form of an excel sheet where i should even be able to make updates to the data if necessary. I have to do this using VBA. And also one more thing the data I have in access is which i have generated using SQL
Why do this with VBA? There are multiple simple ways to do this from the normal interface options.
And what do you mean by, "the data I have in access is which i have generated using SQL"?

Suppose a report is rendered on the Report Server when a user saves it in Excel format.
The user then opens the report. All hyperlinks and drill down in the report are available in Excel, but if user clicks on it, it opens the result in a web browser.
How to restrict these hyperlinks while exporting to Excel from report Server?
You can use an expression in the ACTION - GO TO REPORT option
=IIf(Globals!RenderFormat.IsInteractive, "Your Report", Nothing)
this will remove the hyperlinks for Excel and PDF exports
