Reporting Services export to Excel with Multiple Worksheets

Question

I\'m currently building a MS Reporting Services Report that gets rendered to excel. I\'m trying to figure out how to set up the report so that it creates multiple Worksheets

Answer 1

Put the tab name on the page header or group TableRow1 in your report so that it will appear in the "A1" position on each Excel sheet. Then run this macro in your Excel workbook.

Sub SelectSheet()
        For i = 1 To ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Count
        mysheet = "Sheet" & i
        On Error GoTo 10
        Sheets(mysheet).Select
        Set Target = Range("A1")
        If Target = "" Then Exit Sub
        On Error GoTo Badname
        ActiveSheet.Name = Left(Target, 31)
        GoTo 10
Badname:
        MsgBox "Please revise the entry in A1." & Chr(13) _
        & "It appears to contain one or more " & Chr(13) _
        & "illegal characters." & Chr(13)
        Range("A1").Activate
10
        Next i
End Sub

Answer 2

To late for the original asker of the question, but with SQL Server 2008 R2 this is now possible:

Set the property "Pagebreak" on the tablix or table or other element to force a new tab, and then set the property "Pagename" on both the element before the pagebreak and the element after the pagebreak. These names will appear on the tabs when the report is exported to Excel.
