C# export to excel from sql server

In my C# windows application, I am exporting sql ser开发者_高级运维ver data to excel on remote drive. But it is too slow. However, if I export data to excel in the local drive, it is fast.

How can I increase the time if I want to export data to remote drive?

Thanks in advance...

Export to a temp folder on the local machine, copy it to the network and then delete the file from the temp folder. You could even do the copy and delete on a separate thread so the UI's not blocked.

If it is an option for you, export to the local drive and then copy/move the exported file to the remote drive.
