The issue in not how do I rename the tab in Excel after it has been created. When setting up subscriptions in SSRS, it would extremely difficult to have the email recipient perform any post-production processes when THEY have absolutely no clue on how to do that. The real objective is for the task to be performed either before or during the subscription export process. For that, XML / XSLT is not a viable option as our primary objective is a "set it and forget it" setup.
