PDF and Merge Cell Border Style Issue

Problem: I have borders that are hidden (Border Style=None) that appear ok in HTML but when Render in PDF they appear when they should not. Basically I am using a few columns like TABS in one Major Column in my report in combination with Merge Cells.

In Sql2000 -> There is no problem in the HTML or PDF rendering.

In Sql2005SP1 -> The problem occurs in two forms:

a) Problem Only Shows up in the PDF Creation call in our ASPX in IIS

b) Problem occurs in both the ASPX call and the Reporting Services Report Upload (Export to PDF)

Is there a fix to this issue or work around?

Solution

1) Reset All Border Styles and Border Colors to Vanilla (I mean every cell)

2) Redo your Border Styles etc but be careful -> It kinda like chess

This is due to that Sql2000 and Sql2005 handles the narly RDL Rendering conflicts differently.

Path speciale for StyleSheet.

Hello :

To treat the posting of the report (navigation bar, colors etc.), we can created a special sheet of style (ex: TestStyle), who is in:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\Reporting Services\ReportServer\Styles

And we put in the url of the report : &rc:stylesheet=STNViewer

My question: if this sheet of style is not in the same directory, how to define the road of this page in the url ?

Thank's.

Custom style sheets MUST be placed in the Styles folder:
