When you export a report to excel is there an event that fires?

[KawaUser]

When my report is exported to excel is there an event that fires? I need to add 2 tabs to the excel sheet.

Hi KawaUser,

The Windows Forms Report Viewer has an Export event that you can use for such scenarios. Check out the following code snippet and let us know if you need additional assistance.

private void reportViewer1_Export(object sender, Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.ExportEventArgs args)
{
    switch (args.RenderingExtension.Name)
    {
        case "XLS":
            (sender as Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.ReportViewer).Report = new Report2();
            break;
        case "PDF":
            //do something
            break;
    }
}

Thank you for your previous help, but I have run in to it again. I need to know when the user saves the file. Is there some kind of confirmation that the export or some event gets that lets us know that the file has actually been saved?

Thank you,
Chuck

Hi KawaUser,

We don't expose an API for such verification. However you can utilize the reporting API to export the report programmatically and manage the save dialog.
