Closing IE Window used for exporting...

Taken from Reporting Services 2000 Help - 'When you click Export, the report
opens in a new browser window, in a viewer that is associated with the export
format. If in Step 2 you clicked TIFF, the report is displayed in a viewer
that supports TIFF file types.'
Is there any way to close this new browser window so it does not stay behind
and make the user close it?
Thanks for any input!Hi rheath,
Welcome to use MSDN Managed Newsgroup Support.
It is a by design issue in Reporting Service 2000 and was resolved in
Reporting Service 2005. If you try to export a report in Reporting Services
2005, the browser window will close and do not need to manually close it.
Thanks for your understanding.

Do the reports have to be designed using Visual Studio 2005. I ask because
we are developing the reports using Visual Studio 2003 and depolying to a
Reporting Services 2005 server and I still get the browser window that does
not close when exporting.
Thanks,
Russ

Thanks for the update.
I have tested on my side. I deploy a report to Report Services 2005 using
VS 2003. I get the browser closed when exporting.
Would you please test on another machine to access the report server and
try to export the report?
Does this issue occur?
