Hi Kiranbabu, Since you don’t want to create template in Excel, you could also generate the template in the SSRS, Here’re steps for how to create your own templates: 1. Open or create a new project and create a new report. 2. Design the report to your specification, you can utilize report designer to place any objects (text boxes, tables, lines, etc) on the report that you want as a template. 3. Save the report and give the report a useful template-friendly name, anything that you can remember in the future. 4. Navigate to the folder where the .rdl file (that has just been saved) is stored. 5. Cut/Copy the file to the following : C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\ProjectItems\ReportProject\ This is the default location of the templates folder. If you have installed Reporting Services on a different drive/directory, update these references to reflect the different Drive/Directory. Now, to access the report template from any project, go back to BIDS, right-click the ‘Reports’ folder (in the Solution Explorer) in your project and choose Add>New Item and you will see your new templates under the heading ‘Visual Studio installed Templates’. If you have any further question, please feel free to ask. Regards, Challen Fu
