ReportViewer - Hide PDF Export

Question

I make use of a ReportView component in a VB.Net 2005 app. How can I disable the PDF export functionality, only keeping the MS Excel format?

Answer 1

In code behind, load a hidden value when showing the report

this.ReportServViewer.ServerReport.Refresh();
this.hidReportViewing.Value = "algo";

then use the following javascript to set a timer to check for the export buttons to be rendered. When they are render, remove the button and clear the timer.

in the on load add (ie $(document).ready())

if ($('#hidReportViewing').val() != '')
 {
               intervalHandler = setInterval(removePDFFromReporting, 1500);
 }
