What’s the relationship between Microsoft’s Reporting Services and SoftArtisans OfficeWriter?
OfficeWriter is a separate product that is seamlessly integrated with Reporting Services, allowing users an option to design reports in Excel and Word and then deliver the reports without ever leaving Microsoft Office. OfficeWriter gives users full Excel and Word support that is currently not available with Reporting Services alone. With OfficeWriter, you can still take advantage of all of Reporting Services’ key features like report security, management and delivery. • How and where do I install OfficeWriter for Reporting Services? The OfficeWriter for Reporting Services installer is run on the server that also hosts Microsoft’s Reporting Services. This installs the custom rendering extensions required to output pure Excel and Word reports created with the OfficeWriter Designer. • How do I install the OfficeWriter Designer? The OfficeWriter Designer is part of the overall OfficeWriter kit. The installer for the Designer gets unpacked when you install OfficeWriter on the Report Server.
