Save as PDF/Excel in Report Viewer

Any idea why the save as pdf or XL is missing from my reports in RTC?

On the same system I ran the Cust Top 10 list and I can export that to PDF or XL.

Trying to look through the training materials from PS and still can't find a "Turn on" option.

Any ideas?

    If you run this code:
    IF CurrReport.PREVIEW THEN;
    
    We will know that you are in preview mode and printing and exporting to PDF/XLS should not be allowed.
    This is standard behavior which has been in the Classic client for years, but with PDF XLS disabled in the Report Viewer this is more visible.

    Instead of modifing the code you might want to look at my suggestion for how this also can be done here:

    One of the problem is, you cannot use the "Print Layout" function which will give you the needed information to know if your document is "nice" enough or you should move some lines to avoid wrong placed page break.

    That's it!
    =; Or someone has a trick to display just this button!?!?
    Or someone can tell me how to preview the document in "Print Layout" mode = WYSIWYG
    Or maybe MS should call the report like "reportViewer1.SetDisplayMode(Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.DisplayMode.PrintLayout);"
    Or ?
