title: Microsoft Reporting Services: hide footer depending on export format?
body: <p>I'm using Microsoft Reporting Services (MSRS) 2008. Currently I'm designing reports that can be rendered both as PDF and Exel, which works fine in general.</p>
  
  <p>If I define a footer in the designer, I'll see it in PDF and do not see it on the Excel sheet.
  Although when I print out the Excel file, the footer is there again (in the page preview also).</p>
  
  <p><em>Is there any way to tell MSRS to hide/not include the footer if Excel is chosen as output format?</em> I want to have it in PDF and I don't want it in Excel. Designing two reports would be a way to achieve that, but a most unconvenient one.</p>
