SSRS 08 Word Rendering

  • I have a need to REMOVE MS-Word as an export option in Reporting Services 2008. We want users to export to PDF and not the other formats. Of course MS-Word is the one they always want to use.

    Does anyone know of a way to do this in SSRS 2008? I realize that most requests since SSRS 2005 have been to add MS-Word to the export function so this may seem kind of silly, but our reports are too complex for MS-Word to handle and they won't render anyway. Having it show up in the list of options is a problem.

    Change the directories to suit a 2008/R2 setup

    Also works in a Sharepoint integrated setup.
