Use the View page for reports to view a report. When you first open a report in Report Manager, it is formatted in HTML. HTML reports include a report toolbar that appears at the top of the report so that you can navigate through report pages, search within a report, or export the report to a different format. The following diagram shows the report toolbar.
Exporting Reports
Not all report features are available in all of the export formats. If you export an HTML report to another format, you can expect to see some differences in how the report appears. Also, if the report includes interactive features (such as hyperlinks, bookmarks, or document maps) those features might not be available or work the same way in the new format.
Running Parameterized Reports
A report that contains input fields and a View Report button is a parameterized report. To view a parameterized report, you might need to provide values that are used to run the report.
Note If you are running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services, report execution snapshots and some export formats are not available. For more information about which features are available, see the "Reporting Services in SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services" topic in SQL Server Books Online.
