title: IE automation and SQL reporting services c#
body: <p>I'm working on a project for work that has me running a SQL reporting services report all day long. I would like to automate this process and have gotten pretty far in the process. I can navigate to the page, search for what I want, select the output of the file and click export. The problem I run into is the File Download dialog box that pops regardless of file type or mime settings. I am able to get around it now by using an AutoIt function but its flaky at best. I really want to just download the file to a specific location. My question.. Is there a way to intercept whatever clicking the export button does and get some sort of link to the file? Or is there a way to run the function that link does in asp programmaticly and grabbing the file that way? (Sorry if terminology is off not real familiar with ASP).</p>
  
  <p>Edit... I know there are better ways of doing this with reporting services such as subscriptions etc (thanks for the responses btw :)... But this is what I'm stuck with until I can get the admin to fix a few things. In the company I'm at that involves getting about 20 different departments involved and it will most likely not get fixed. But ultimately my question is whether it is possible to do what im asking in C#. Can I intercept where the code is sending me when I click export and grab the file? Is that even possible?  </p>
