Allowing Users To Type In Characters In A Drop Down List?
Feb 6, 2007
is this even possible in reporting services? I already deployed reports for our client using Reporting Services 2000, one of their complaints was that the dropdownlist of the reports contains a very long list of data, this list cannot be shorten since all data are required. Is there a way to let the users type in characters, not only one character to find the exact data they want. The data in the drop down list are needed because these data are parameters.
Are there any web based reporting tools which can provide this kind of requirement?

I have a MSSQL Report Services Report Model set up to allow users to create their own ad hoc reports. The data source for my model is a Named Query that queries a MS SQL view that actually pulls data from a series of tables & other views. When you create a report from this model and attempt to filter the data some of the fileds will provide you with a pick list to select which values you would like to filter on and other fields do not provide you with a pick list but require you to enter the data directly that you wish to filter on. Most of the data fields that I am trying to filter on are varchar fields and like I said some will create a pick list for you to selet from and others will not. This all seemed to start after I changed my data source to a Named Query rather than having my data source as the MS SQL View directly. I did this becuase it seemed that anytime I had to make a change to the views that the data source pulled from it would mess up any existing reports that had been created and this does not happen if I use a named query. I have gone crazy trying to figure this one out so any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Hey all.
I'm trying to set up SQL Server so that people with Enterprise Mgr can create a DB registration to their DB only (sql.yoursite.com). Are there any tutorials out there for doing this?
Thanks for the help!

Developers want to give users the ability to schedule and run processes, which may be executables, T-SQL, DTS, Active Scripting, etc. I don't want to enable a proxy account due to the well documented security problems. Has anyone come up with a good way to do this?

I'm relatively new to administering SQL Server, hence this basic question.
What are the standard practice tool(s)/methods for allowing users access to a database to edit data? In this case, these are engineers (not programmers) that need to edit some values. The practice in the past has been to install Enterprise Manager on their PC. However, this does not seem proper to me and I was thinking more along the lines of having them use Access instead.
I compare Enterpise Manager in SQL Server as an equilvalent to Enterprise Manager in Oracle - these are tools only for use by database administrators. Is this a correct correlation, or is Enterpise Manager in SQL Server a tool that users (and programmers?) are commonly allowed to use? In the case of common users, I would think not.
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys,
Is there anyway to allow SQL Server users to change their own passwords without giving them rights to "db_securityadmin" ?
Our M$ adviser suggested creating our own app using SQL NS and DMO to do it.
Is there any easier method, reference, download sample from the web?

I'm building a package that will periodically be used to import data from an excel file to update a SQL database. I've done most of it but I am completely stuck on one bit:
How can I build something in that allows the user to browse for the Excel file to be imported (like you do when you set up the Excel Connection Manager and it asks which file)?
My ideal world would be someway of calling just that part of the Import wizard.
There are lots of things about dynamically choosing the file using variables but they don't allow end-user interaction. It may be that I'm trying to do something I shouldn't.........
HELP!

I am quite new to SSIS but managed to build a package which imports text files in to SQL. The text files are generated after users complete a manufacturing process on a machine.
The SSIS package is stored in the SSIS catalog and currently a SQL Agent tasks runs every evening to import new files that have been created during the day. Users have now requested the ability to run the import process as soon as they have finished their manufacturing runs as they may want to query the data to looks up stats etc.
What is the best way to do this considering all of the users are not SQL guys and wont have direct logins into the SQL Server or access to SQL Server Management studio. They will have access to the PC where the files are generated, so I ideally I need a batch file which they can just execute to import their new files.
I have seen lots of things on the web about running dtsexec but as the package is stored in the SSIS Catalog, how can I execute this remotely?

I have a report where I am giving the users a parameter so that they can select which field they would like to sort on.The report is also grouping by that field. I have a gruping section, where i have added code to group on the field I want based on this parameter, however I also would like to changing the sorting order but I checked around and I did not find any info.
So here is my example. I am showing sales order info.The user can sort and group by SalesPerson or Customer. Right now, I have code on my dataset to sort by SalesPerson Code and Order No.So far the grouping workds, however the sorting does not.
Any suggestions would help.
Thanks

Third question:
I'm backing up a database which has some users.
When I try to restore it to another machine which has the same users and already has an old version of the database the database cannot be accessed. I must drop the users from the database by using the stored procedures sp_dropuser <username> and then add it again to the database from the Enterprise Manager.
Why this happens??

Manolis

In my drop down menus - which are populated by tables - we can only use the scroll bar OR type in the first letter to find the item - Is there a way to type in several letters to find something? (e.g. if I want to find clockwork - right now I could type in "C" to get to the C's - but if I tried typing "clo" it would end up at the beginning of the "O's" - Thanks

Hello,
I am using SSRS 2005 SP2 and I need to allow my users to select the products they want in the report.
I created a data set to get the list of the products and then used it in a multivalue parameter to generate a drop down list.
My problem is that the list is too long (more than 2000 elements) and thus, it takes 10 sec to collapse the drop down list after tickinging the products.
Does anyone have an miraculous solution?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

I was wondering if anyone may be familiar with a way to create a dropdown list that included a list of SQLServers. Basically I want to create a little application that lets a user point to an instance of sql server, similar to enterprise manager. I wanted to use C# and figured there may be some namespaces I could use that provide this functionality but was not sure.
Thanks,

Currently I have a small page that includes a drop down list with about 120 possible choices to chose from.
The list works fine, however, the choices are not sorted ascending/alphabetical order. So it is very slow searching for
the selection you want.

I am using Visual Studio 2005 to create a report from a OLAP cube.
I am building a drop down list for user to select the desired branch. My mdx query as follow:
with
member [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS '[Company].[Branch].Currentmember.Member_Caption'
member [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS '[Company].[Branch].Currentmember.Uniquename'
select
{[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue]} on columns,
{[Company].[Branch].ALLMEMBERS} on rows
from [Profit And Loss]
I would like to add a blank row in the result set, such that I can consider that as selecting ALL Branch
Any suggestions on what should I do?

I have a web form that needs to be bilingual. It contains several dropdown lists. The "text" and "value" for each item in the dropdown list is retrieved from a database. The logic reads the database and then populates the various dropdowns with logic such as:
dim newItem as new ListItem(textString, valueString)
theDropDown.items.add(newItem)
The problem that I am having occurs when the textString needs to contains special characters such as accented vowels or an "n" with a tilde. I have tried populating the database with HTML-formatted strings such as "Avión", hoping that this would display "Avion" with an accute accent over the "o". Unfortunately it displays "Avión".
How do I get dynamically-created dropdowns to display special characters? If the answer is to simply store the special characters directly in the database, then the question becomes how do I get the special characters into the database? I tried to figure out how to write a T-SQL command such as
update tablex set SpanishName = 'Avion' where id=999
but I can't figure out the syntax to insert an accented 'o' into the string.
Thanks.

Say I had a "typical" user table such as:
USerTable
---------
enduserid
user_name
password
firstname
lastname
...
Say this table grows very large, what would be a good way to fetch a list of users that was configurable to bring back all or some of the users ? How about a procedure that uses a range of user id's. So if you wanted ALL of you users, you just use a range of inputs that span the entire range.
comments ?
CREATE PROCEDURE EndUsers_Select
@lowuser int,
@highuser int
AS
SELECT
eu.FirstName
,eu.LastName
,ci.Email
FROM UserTable eu
JOIN ContactInformation ci ON eu.ContactInformationID = ci.ContactInformationID
WHERE EndUserID < @highuser AND EndUserID > @lowuser

I have a drop down list that is populated by a stored procedure which has two int parameters (ID, STATUS). I need to default the drop down list to a value in the database that is associated to the ID & STATUS parameters.
The problem I am having is that it only works if the selected value is the first record on the drop down list. for any other records (outside the first record) from the drop down list i get "The 'SelectedIndex' and 'SelectedValue' attributes are mutually exclusive."
Here is the stored procedure I am using to populate the drop down list:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_SelectName]
(
@pId Int,
@pStatus Int
)
AS
BEGIN
IF @pId = -1 --THIS VALUE IS USED AS DEFAULT (NOT POSTBACK)
[Code] ....
Here is the TABLE_NAMES that holds the data for the drop down list:
IN_ID IN_NAMESTATUS
6 New 0
4 Generic 0
3 Local 1
4 Storm 0
This is the TABLE_2 that holds the complete collected FORM data that has the selected record IN_ID from the TABLE_NAME:
ID STATUS IN_ID
111906
114406
114505
114606
114706

I was trying to write an expression someting like this.
(CASE WHEN (GroupVar2 IN('CBank','DTC', 'EDirect')) THEN GroupVar2 ELSE 'InstLend' END) AS COALESCE(GroupVar2,'Total') AS GroupVar2
In GroupVar2 column, following values are available;
CBank
DTC
EDirect
InstLend
Inst-Load
I use this for a parameter in my report. I want to consider inst-Load as the same as InstLend. In drop down menu , I should see only InstLend. When I select it, I should get summation of InstLend and Inst-Load.
Also I should see 'Total' as one of the available value. So when I select total it should give me summation of all of above.
Can anyone help me to write this corretly?
Thanks
