I have a report with two columns. It works fine in SQL Reporting Services, but when I push it to the Report Server it only prints one column instead of the two that it's set up to print.

What am I missing?

I'm not exactly sure WHY this is the case, but multiple columned reports don't show correctly in or HTML or Excel. I'd check the others but don't have access to RS with all export options right now.

It does however work when exporting to PDF.

Export your report to PDF and you should most definitely see the multi-columns.

Why push the envelope when you can just open it?

Unfortunately, I have to use HTML. I create all my reports using SRS, then upload them to the Report Server. This, in turn, puts them into our implementation of Microsoft CRM. So these reports are going to be run by others from CRM, which is web-based. From there you can export it to PDF, but they will most likely just try to print it from the report viewer in CRM, and they are not very understanding people when they can't exactly see what they want.

Thank you for your input, Hero.

Karen,

One other thing about multi-column reports. A sub-report uses the same "column" settings as the "master" report. So if your main report has one, your sub will have one. This is regardless of the rendering format.
