generating Excel file every morning

Hi, I started playing with reporting services, followed the first 3 lessons
int the walkthrough, I find it a very interesting tool.
When viewing a report in IE, we have the possibility to export to excel
file. I woudl like to do a dynamic report, let's say generated on the fly at
6 o'clock morning and send it by mail as attachment. Is it possible with
reportin g services? if yes, any good articles or tutorials somewhere
Thanks for your helpYes, this is possible. Look for subscriptions and scheduling in the BOL.
You can also start here with the How Tos:

generating excel file automatically every morning

Hi, I started playing with reporting services, followed the first 3 lessons
int the walkthrough, I find it a very interesting tool.
When viewing a report in IE, we have the possibility to export to excel
file. I woudl like to do a dynamic report, let's say generated on the fly at
6 o'clock morning and sent by mail as attachment. Is it possible with
reportin g services? if yes, any good articles or tutorials somewhere
Thanks for your help
What do you mean by dynamic?
You can schedule a report to run by using the Subscriptions "tab."
You can drop the report on a file share or you can email it.
By the way, you might want to address future questions related to Reporting
Services to the reporting services newsgroup

|||By dynamic I mean, the report is executed for example 5 times, each time a
where clause containing a different value in order to generate 5 different
reports(I have to send an email for each provider with product I have sold
belonging to him)
In the doc on line, I saw we can generate we can have 2 datasets, the result
in the main table can be changed according to a parameter.
Thanks for your help. Next question I will post to it to the appropriate group
