selectively disabling "export to excel" option [message #702611]

I'm using BIRT 2.6.2.
Is there a way to disable the option to export to excel, but only for SOME reports?
Alternatively, passing a URL parameter indicating if export to excel should be enabled is also a good option.

Look at ExportReportDialogFragment.jsp in the
webcontent/birt/pages/dialog directory of the web viewer.
In this code you can get the report name like:
String rpt = ParameterAccessor.PARAM_REPORT;

You should be able to use this with the if statement:
if ( !ParameterAccessor.PARAM_FORMAT_HTML.equalsIgnoreCase(
supportedFormats[i] ) )

To drop the excel export option.

Hello,
I am also searching for a way, to selectively enabling export options in BIRT reports.
Isn´t there a way, you can define this in the report itself?
Maybe using a script?

.

I tried to access the report name through ParameterAccessor.PARAM_REPORT but only got the default value "__report".
How can I access the report name or even the report id?
