I have a problem with strange rendering of a report in reporting server 2005 (the project is a bit old). In the first cell of the data row bottom border is hidden. The whole row is set to border solid. The report is rendered properly in any export format that I tried (excel, pdf, web archive).

Im working on a Report with a coverpage. So the body has no margins and the full page is useable.
The report also has no Headers or footers because the coverpage must cover the whole page.
For tablix i set a row with empty textboxes to get white space between the page border and the tablix. But if a tablix gets so much data that 1 site is not enough, the data will go to the very edge of the page and start at the very top of the new page.
How can i enter space at these points so data isnt at the edge of the page?
I was unable to find a method that worked in this case.
So the BackEnd dev requested for me to split the two reports into the Coverpage and visual data area. That way i can have footers and my colleague simply merges both reports back together when its being requested.
Some days ago I had to modify a SSRS Report in order to add another group. That Report contains a Chart which before this change was properly shown, but now, In the Web Report Viewer It looks ok.
But when exporting to Excel (xls), The Chart looks like to be compacted:
And the user has to expand at least the groups that are aligned with the chart in order to see It well.
I tried to create a Subreport with only the chart embedded, also tried to put the chart inside a rectangle but none of those solutions worked.
In Excel there is a property for the images to indicate not moving nor sizing with cells and It does the trick but I cannot see the property in the Chart stuff.
Do you know how to have the graph displayed properly without having to expand the groups?
I'm working with SSRS 2008 R2.
Just put a rectangle on your report then cut the chart, click in the rectangle and paste it in. That will stop it trying to align with the table.
It's important that you don't just drag the chart onto the rectangle. You must cut and paste it in.
Wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. I currently have a report with 5 sub sections of data, each surrounded with a Rectangle.
I am wanting each sub section to appear on a new page and then be able to export to Excel and each section to appear on a new Tab.
I set Page Break / Break Location in each Rectangle to "Start" and label the PageName to what I want to call the Tab. When I run the report the 4 subsections show correctly but I am left with a blank page before I get the 5 section, but when I export it to Excel it appears correctly.
What I want is 5 pages in the report for each section and when exporting I want 5 tabs, can someone tell me where I am going wrong with setting the pagebreaks if that is indeed what I am doing incorrectly.
Thanks
As you are successfully exporting to Excel, but not the report viewer, this suggests your report and page sizes are not correctly set up on your 4th subsection.
When you have report elements that are slightly too large for your report page, the parts that 'overhang' will generate a new page of just the part that overhangs. This is often a very small amount of white space, so it looks like the page is completely blank. When you are exporting to formats such as excel, this does not matter so you correctly see the page breaks as new sheets.
To check whether this is the case, add borders and fills of different colours to all your rectangles and then run the report. On your 4th 'blank' page, if you see any colours or borders you will know which rectangle or report element is growing beyond its page.
I have upgraded a 2014 report to 2016 that has some column headers displayed as vertical text. When I view the report in Visual Studio 2015 the labels show correctly:
When I deploy the report to my 2016 report server the vertical column header text is not rendered - the cells appear empty:
The rest of the report renders correctly.
What do I need to do to get the vertical column header text to display correctly?
Interestingly if I download the rendered report from the report server to Excel the headings are there.
The answer is for each textbox with Writing Mode = Vertical, is to set Can grow to True. The text then displays
I have a report in Reporting services, and when I preview it, the headers for a table wrap, but when I export it to Excel, the don't. They just get cut off. Any ideas on how to force it to wrap when I export to Excel?
Although this link doesn't address your question directly, its fairly comprehensive in terms of design considerations for Report Rendering in in Excel
Link: Designing for Microsoft Excel Output(Reporting Services)
If you are importing report from SSRS to EXCEL and if you find some TOP column joined up then the best way to resolve this issue would be:
Go back to report designer and adjust all your text boxes.
Adjust to left side of the designer window. You will see a blue line when it's adjusted to left.
Your dataset at top should also be moved toward left side of the designer window.
You might have date time function on left adjust it to top dataset vertically with 0-1 Points gap.
Including your header which would be Title of your company, name of report and all parameter mentioned below should be adjusted just next below to date time function which I have mentioned earlier.
Play with report designer by adjusting the text box and you will see the magic.
