Automatic Horizontal Width For Column
Feb 14, 2008Hello,
We are generating RDL file on the fly using a XSLT. We are trying to implement an auto width to all the columns dislpayed in the Report. Is Automatic horizontal width for column supported in RDL? If so how? If not is there is any workaround for it?
We tried using CanGrow and CanShrink tags, but those are for only vertical.
Thanks in advance.
Select Columns With Correct Width For Fixed Width Flat File?
Dec 6, 2013I have like 100 columns and most of them work fine, but some will not work. I need to select the columns with correct width for fixed width flat file.
Here is typical SQL statment that works for most of them.
left(RTRIM(A.City) + Replicate(' ', 25) ,25) as [City]
The above one is not working, but many other works fine like the address. Why would it work for some, but not others?
It works fine if I use any char, but not space. i.e.
left(RTRIM(A.City) + Replicate('*', 25) ,25) as [City]
Subreport Width Expanding Beyond Width Of Container Report
Mar 4, 2008I have a subreport on my main report, and the subreport contains a matrix. When I run the report, the subreport seems to expand beyond the width of the main report. The matrix itself does not expand beyond the width of the body of the main report, but for some reason it seems that the subreport does. The subreport does not contain any headers that might be messing up the width. If I cut and paste the matrix from the subreport directly onto the main report, and remove the subreport, it prints fine. But as soon as I include the subreport on the main report it prints with blank pages because the subreport expands beyond the width of the body of the main report. I have checked the width and margins on the subreport and compared to the width of the main report and all looks good. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Max Width For Input Fixed Width Column
Jun 1, 2007Is there a maximum width for fixed width column?
I'm trying to read in a flat file (which, admittedly, has one very wide column), and it keeps breaking because of truncation when it tries to read in the file.
Any ideas?

Scaling Width Of Report To Fit To Page Width
Apr 9, 2007Hi,
I've a report projects where each report has a number of columns and the spec is to have all the columns print-out on the same page. Is there a setting that will auto-scale these columns to fit to the page or will I have to edit the font size and widths manually on each report to fit to the page?
Thanks for any comments.
OLE DB Source To Flat File Destintation Using Fixed Width Columns - Determining Source Column Width
Feb 13, 2007Hi,
I am trying to create a program that transfers tables to flat files.
At this point in time, I have suceeded in created one that creates delimited files.
However, I am now trying to create fixed-width files as you can do with the SSIS designer, but programatically.
Is there a way to programatically determine the width of a column from the source table? I can not seem to find any kind of function or member that stores this information or allows me to retrieve it.
I know what I need to change in order to set a width for a column, but I just don't know how to find the width without just asking the user to provide one.

Combobox Width
Oct 2, 2007Hello,
How can I change the width of my comboboxes etc in SQL Enterprise Manager ?
I can't see which table I'm supposed to be updating and it's causing me huge problems.
(basically my fields are called things like Staging_EmployeeDetails etc)
I'm on a 17" monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 so this shouldn't be an issue, and all screens are maximized.
I've tried dragging the corners of the window, but it doesn't seem to let me.
As an example, I'm in the export wizard and I can't tell which rowto use when I query the data (See screenshot)
Where Do I Set The Report Width?
Oct 23, 2007I'm not very familiar with sql server 2005, and am trying to create some reports for the first time. I created 4 fairly basic reports. Three of them work just fine. The fourth one is giving me fits. When I look at it in Visual Studio, it previews just fine - generates the correct data and everything. When I deploy it to report services, however, it gets squashed sideways, so that it is about three times too narrow. I've looked at both the body properties and the report properties, and they all appear ok when compared to the other three reports. The body width is set to 8.9 inches, and the report page size and interactive size properties are set to 8.6 inches.
Can anyone point me in the right direction, or am I going to have to start from scratch?
Thanks in advance...

Column Width Workarounds
Jul 3, 2007I have been looking over the forums looking for answers to the question that nails us all: how do you dynamically resize column widths? MS says: you don't. However, I have heard many people say they have found ways around it. I wonder if anyone might share those with me (and everyone else). Share the wisdom you have gained with those less experienced!
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow To Dynamically Change Width?
Feb 7, 2006
Folks,
We have some reports that have optional columns. We have them working very nicely, with the column showing or hiding based on values in the report -- works great.
Except -- when the columns are present, the report spans onto two pages, when exported to PDF, in width. That's understandable, as there's a lot of extra data, and exactly what we want. However, when the columns are not present, we get empty pages instead, because the report doesn't automatically contract back onto the size that fits on one page.
Changing the report to a Matrix won't work, as the hidden columns on some of these come as sets of three, where each column in the three has different formatting (different widths, format codes, etc).
Thanks!

Matrix - Limiting The Width
Aug 15, 2007Hi,
I have a matrix object in a report that sometimes runs off the side of the page based on the underlying data. Essentially if there are more than 11 columns it stretches out my page.
How can I fix this? Ideally, I would like to show only the Top 11 results but cannot seem to figure out how (or where, or on what data element) to properly set a filter.
Thanks.

Multi-Value Parameter Width
Mar 27, 2007Good afternoon,
I've designed a Reporting Services report that has a multi-value parameter. The report works just great. The only issue I'm running into is that the users are complaining that when they want to select the values, within the multi-value parameter box, they have to scroll it to the sides way too much. This also makes them select values by mistake.
Is there away to inscrease the width of the multi-value parameter box?
Best regards.
Dropdown List Width

Is there any way to configure this?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Adjusting Parameter Dropdown Width
Oct 25, 2007Hi there,
May be a kind of dumb question, but I have a multi-value parameter that I would like to give users the ability to select from in a SSRS 2005 Report and I was wondering if there was a way to adjust the width of the drop down so the user wouldn't have to scroll horizontally to see a full parameter item. It looks like it cuts off after about 30 characters.
Any help here would be appreciated.
Thanks!

SSIS Fixed Width File
May 2, 2006I am attempting to import a fixed width file into a SS2005 table and am having problems when importing a date that has no value in it. The table will allow nulls.
The date is in dd/mm/yyyy foramt and when there is no date then there are 10 spaces. When transforming the data I TRIM the data down using a derive transform script so all there is, is an empty string. When the file attempts to load I get the following message:
[OLE DB Destination [2238]] Error: There was an error with input column "paid_date" (2306) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (2251). The column status returned was: "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
How can it potentially lose data when there is nothing to lose?
I need some way of converting the empty string into a null. Has anyone got any ideas for me?

Adjusting Report Width Automatically
Dec 27, 2006Hi All,
We are having a table report which has set of columns where the visibility is made false based on report parameters. It works fine and the table automatically shrinks. But, the page width remains as early and has lot of blank space in it. It also causes printer to print many blank pages.
Is there a way to control pagewidth dynamically? Thought of adding a custom assembly to control page width - but how to access the page that is getting displayed. "this" will refer to the the assembly class instead of report as such.
Any help is highly appreciated.

100% Width And Height Within A Master Page
Jun 2, 2006Hi,
We have a ReportViewer control sitting inside a master page's content placeholder. All works fine except when I set the width and height to 100% rather than a fixed size in pixels. This is what we require, as we'd like the control to resize automatically along with the page.
I'm aware of a fix whereby you remove the doctype statement from the page's script, but this seems to have no effect on a page which is based on a master page.
Is there any other way we can get our ReportViewer to work in a 100% width/height mode?
Thanks for any help in advance,
Rich
