I would like to be able to check format to be running as, so I can make
some columns and fields invisible if run as excel or CSV etc.

Is this possible? I dont see a way at hitting render format from Report!
object.

As far as I know, this functionality is not available. That said, you
can create a custom application that controls the export options and
the fields/columns that are displayed. Sorry that I could not be of
greater assistance.

Actually you might be onto something with that. I've already managed to
whip up my own dynamic report viewer in asp.net and it works quite
well... I will just inject a hidden parameter called format... then i
can use the format in the queries etc =)

That'll work great for me.
