title: SSRS 2005 Set SimplePageHeaders on the report instead of the server?
body: <p>I have one report that does not export to excel friendly from SSRS 2005.  I know I can use </p>
  
  <pre><code>
  &lt;Render&gt;
      &lt;Extension Name="EXCEL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ExcelRenderer.ExcelRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ExcelRendering"&gt;
          &lt;Configuration&gt;
              &lt;DeviceInfo&gt;
                  &lt;SimplePageHeaders&gt;True&lt;/SimplePageHeaders&gt;
              &lt;/DeviceInfo&gt;
          &lt;/Configuration&gt;
      &lt;/Extension&gt;
  &lt;/Render&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>in the rsreportserver.config, but I am not the only person with reports on this machine.  I also found that you can pass 
  <pre><code>&amp;rc:SimplePageHeaders=True</code></pre> in the url to export the report programatically.</p>
  
  <p>I tried adding the <code>&amp;rc:SimplePageHeaders=True</code> to the end of the url when navigating to the report manager, but when I select excel from the dropdown and click export the headers are still exported.  I even tried setting the <code>rc:Command=Render</code> and <code>rc:Format=EXCEL</code> in the url too without any luck.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to do what I am trying to do?</p>
  
  <p>note: I am wanting to render the report on the built in report manager and use the build in export to excel dropdown, not in an app or website.</p>
