Hi,
I want to do modification to the data before exporting it to excel. IS there any way by which I will come to know that export evernt is fired so I can modify the data and will export it to the excel. I'm using Telerik.ReportViewer.WebForms. I know that for Windows it is available.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Subra,
The goal of a reporting product is to have a single template which when bound to data can be exported to various formats and look as close as possible to the original having the specific format limitations in mind. Changing something for specific format only means that the report has already been processed and making changes to the template after processing is wrong and we do not allow it. Your best option would be to create a second report that would be used for export to excel (and looks as you need) and handle the export from your application programmatically instead of using the built-in export in the viewers.
Kind regards,
Steve
