How To Show Description In Report Instead Of Code (Desc For Code Is In Master Table)

Mar 28, 2007

Dear Friends,



I am having 2 Tables.

Table 1: AddressBook
Fields --> User Name, Address, CountryCode



Table 2: Country
Fields --> Country Code, Country Name


Step 1 : I have created a Cube with these two tables using SSAS.



Step 2 : I have created a report in SSRS showing Address list.

The Column in the report are User Name, Address, Country Name



But I have no idea, how to convert this Country Code to Country name.

I am generating the report using the Layout tab. ( Data | Layout | Preview ) Report1.rdl [Design]



Anyone help me to solve this issue. Because, in our project most of the transaction tables have Code and Code description in master table. I need to convert all code into corresponding description in all my reports.




Thanks in advance.

SQL Command To Show Only Databases That Contain A Particular Table

Dec 5, 2007

I have several databases that are used to collect data for differentclient-projects. My intention was to collect the data, and administermySQL so each client could see only their data. Each of thesedatabases used to collect data have the same tables. There are otherdatabases which are available to all the users which contain commoninformation.The command "show databases" lists all of the databases (visible tothe particular user) and not the one's I would like to display (thedatabases used to collect data). Is there a way to nest a singlemySQL command to show only the databases that have the same particulartable?

Transact SQL :: If Not Exists Some ID In One Table Then Insert ID And Description In Another Table

Jul 14, 2015

I need to find out if a Transaction ID exists in Table A that does not exist in Table B.  If that is the case, then I need to insert into Table B all of the Transaction IDs and Descriptions that are not already in. Seems to me this would involve If Not Exists and then an insert into Table B.  This would work easily if there were only one row.  What is the best way to handle it if there are a bunch of rows?  Should there be some type of looping?

Table Description Information

Jul 20, 2000

In oracle there is a describe command:
describe table_name
This command will tell you the columns names, datatypes, and length of the columns for that particular table. Does anyone know if there is a simliar command in SQL server that would do that? The only way that I have found so far is to do a join of the syscolumns with sysobject by table name.

Matrix Problem - Can I Show All Columns?

May 21, 2008

Good morning all.

I have a report that is set up as a matrix. The repor shows data relating to review numbers (for example 1-6). Based on the date range selected from my parameters the report will show stats and the matrix grouping is by the review number.

My question is this, if the dataset returns only some of the review numbers, can I do anything to show the other review numbers? They will always be from 1-6.

Thanks

Show/hide Report Columns

Aug 29, 2006

Hello,

I'm currently investigating whether SQL Reporting Services might be the right solution to some reporting requirements I have been given (web reports).

There is a requirement that some of the columns are hidden to begin with and can be shown by clicking on the header of one of the other columns. E.g. There is a list of clients and a "Total Revenue" column, clicking on the "Total Revenue" column header would show an additional 5 or so columns which show a breakdown of different figures that make up the total revenue.

So my question is this: Is it possible to show/hide columns by clicking on the headers of other columns in the report?

Thanks,

Lachlan

Description Field In Subscriptions Table

Apr 10, 2007

The Description field in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services just defaults to "Send e-mail to email@domain.com" (obviously a dummy e-mail address) when you create an e-mail subscription. You cannot edit the Description when you select "Edit" beside a subscription.



The Description may be edited directly in the Subscriptions table under the ReportServer database but this is not end-user friendly.



I thought of using an add/update trigger to set the Description to the "Subject" out of the Extension Settings field. The Extension Settings field is XML so you would have to parse the Subject out of there first. The "Subject" is the e-mail Subject for the e-mail that is sent to the subscriber and it much more adequately describes the report.



My boss understood what I wanted to do but wanted to make sure in the industry literature that the product was not that lacking. Hard to believe that you cannot directly edit the Subscription Description through the web browser interface - would love for someone to prove me wrong.

Show Columns On Both Matrix Regardless Of Population Of Data

May 1, 2008



I have used two matrix in one of my reports. One matrix is right above other. Both matrix's columns are allocated for month name. I.e there are 12 columns for each month of the year for each matrix.
column name of the second matrix was hidden. so end user can see only first matrix column name and corresponding data in each matrix.
But the problem is now, when there is no data for perticular month in first matrix, thats month's column does not appear at all.
Lets say there is no data for November in first matrix. so Novem column is missing in first mtrix now. but still Novem column is shown on the second matrix as it has some data, although column name is not shown. I wonder how I can show all the columns of both matrix regardless of population of data.

Thanks

SQL 2012 :: Split Data From Two Columns In One Table Into Multiple Columns Of Result Table

Jul 22, 2015

So I have been trying to get mySQL query to work for a large database that I have. I have (lets say) two tables Table_One and Table_Two. Table_One has three columns: Type, Animal and TestID and Table_Two has 2 columns Test_Name and Test_ID. Example with values is below:

**TABLE_ONE**
Type Animal TestID
-----------------------------------------
Mammal Goat 1
Fish Cod 1
Bird Chicken 1
Reptile Snake 1
Bird Crow 2
Mammal Cow 2
Bird Ostrich 3

**Table_Two**
Test_name TestID
-------------------------
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_1 1
Test_2 2
Test_2 2
Test_3 3

In Table_One all types come under one column and the values of all Types (Mammal, Fish, Bird, Reptile) come under another column (Animals). Table_One and Two can be linked by Test_ID

I am trying to create a table such as shown below:

Test_Name Bird Reptile Mammal Fish
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Test_1 Chicken Snake Goat Cod
Test_2 Crow Cow
Test_3 Ostrich

This should be my final table. The approach I am currently using is to make multiple instances of Table_One and using joins to form this final table. So the column Bird, Reptile, Mammal and Fish all come from a different copy of Table_one.

For e.g

Select
Test_Name AS 'Test_Name',
Table_Bird.Animal AS 'Birds',
Table_Mammal.Animal AS 'Mammal',
Table_Reptile.Animal AS 'Reptile,
Table_Fish.Animal AS 'Fish'
From Table_One

[Code] .....

The problem with this query is it only works when all entries for Birds, Mammals, Reptiles and Fish have some value. If one field is empty as for Test_Two or Test_Three, it doesn't return that record. I used Or instead of And in the WHERE clause but that didn't work as well.
