Hi anyone:
I'm actually developing a report with some dates on it. I want that when I run this report, a prompt (a window) appears requesting a date (or at least it could be good if a list appears and I can select one of them). Do you have any idea about how can I do that?.
Thanks in advance,
Pat
Hi,
When I call certain reports from an ASP application, some prompt for password and some are not.
I wonder why is this happen?
Under the Directory Security of Reports under IIS 6, I already enable Anonymous Access for IUSR_XXXX with the correct password.
I also assign IUSR_XXXX as Browser in Report Manager of Reporting Services.
The enviroment is Windows Server 2003 standard edition, IIS 6, SQL Server 2005.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Pop
I have found many references to this issue on the forum, but no solution that works in my case. I believe that I am lacking a fundamental understanding of a security issue so I will attempt to provide as much up front information as possible. I can publish SSRS reports from BIDS to my local computer but when I try and publish the same reports to a production server, I get a login dialog (which I cannot get passed). Here are the particulars. My environment is a home office. I have my computer (which works with the localhost designation) running on a workgroup network (not domain based). My server is another machine on the network (named €śserverone€?). Both machines are running Windows XP Professional. The BIDS project €śDebug€? property page has the TargetServerURL set to http://localhost/ReportServer. The €śProduction€? property page has the TargetServerURL set to http://serverone/ReportServer. I am logged on as an administrator but I cannot publish to the remote server (serverone) from my machine (localhost). I have also tried using the actual TCIP address of the server in place of the serverone name to no avail. I believe that my problem is related to authentication between the two SQL Server 2005 instances running on separate machines on a workgroup based network rather than a domain based network but I cannot find any information that might be useful under these circumstances. Now, here is my workaround (but this seems very wrong). From the logon dialog generated in BIDS, the user ID name was blank. When I attempted to remotely access the Report Manager on the server from my machine, IE tried to logon using the €śserverone/guest€? account. I added an administrator role to the guest account on the server and everything works as expected. As I mentioned before, this seems very wrong. Currently, both machines were set to use the €ślocal system€? account during setup, but I am not even sure what that means. I tried setting the server to use the €śNetwork Service€? account as suggested in one of the forum threads but that did not work. Any help here would be greatly appreciated as I am sure that allowing the €śGuest€? account to have €śAdministrator€? privileges is a bad idea.
View 1 Replies View RelatedUp to this point only two of use, both server administrators, have developed reports. Now we need to add two new report analysts to be able to develop reports in BIDS but limit their access to other server folders, etc. Our report source code is located at G:Visual Studio 2005 Source CodeProjects and all report folders, sln files, etc. are located under the Projects sub-folder. I have shared the Projects sub-folder and given read & execute / list folder contents / read / write / modify rights. They can see the report folders and sln files via BIDS or Explorer but get "access denied" when they attempt to execute one of them. Any thoughts on what I may be missing?
Hi all, when i create a reports deploy on the Report server, i usually choose a filter prompted on Run. The lsit containt for example the list of my customers, but the list in empty like i want (like that, user can put a list from excel by copy-paste). But ... , if the want all the customers, what is the " * " operator to select all my records ?
Thanks for help

I have created some reports using Report Builder however they autorun with default values when selected in report manager, cant think many people would want this to happen. Is there a way of getting rid of the default values in RB or preventing auto execute in RM?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1, and BIDS 2008 SP1. The problem I am about to define does NOT happen when the report is deployed to the report server, but only within the report development environment (BIDS).
From within BIDS my reports are fed by stored procedures. The problem is when I modify a stored procedure in Management Studio, and refresh the report from within BIDS, the report does not reflect the new changes made in the stored procedure. So far I have found one clumsy solution to this problem:
1) Go to the folder where the project is saved on the file system.
2)Find the ".data" file that is associated to the particular report, then delete it. For instance, if my report name is TestReport.rdl, find the file named TestReport.rdl.data, then delete it.
I run these stored procedure to build the report and I am able successfully to build the report but I need some prompts to in the report to get the specific data .
ALTER
PROCEDURE [dbo].[Sharepoint_Ticket_Report]
@StartDate
DATETIME,
@EndDate
[Code] ....
And for prompts how to create created_by and message_type dropdowns as shown in picture.
Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

What is the sql code to prompt for a value?

Hi Friends,
Could I migrate the reports which are developed on SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. If Yes then How ...
Could anyone explain me. How it works.
Thanks

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,

Is there a way to copy reports from other users "My reports" folder? I am logging onto the management studio reporting services using an administrative account and I am able to view the reports from all users' "My Reports" folder. But I am not able to export them as an rdl file. I am able to export reports from other common folders, but not from the "My Reports" folder.
The reason I need to do this is some of the users have created some reports in one environment and the reports are available in their respective "My Reports" folder. I need to move these reports to their corresponding "My Reports" folder in another environment.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for your help.
HI,
I have a need where SQL Server should prompt me for a value when I run a Select statement.
Eg:
If I need the name of an employee by id number, SQL server should prompt me to enter a value for the ID when I run the statement like:
SELECT name FROM employee WHERE id=[Enter ID]
In oracle, it is possible by using "&" operator but I am not sure how it can be done in SQL Server. Is there any other way to get the prompts if not by the above method.
Thank you for your help in advance.

is it useful? its like visual studio?
thanks. pls reply.

Can we install BIDS client (no server components) on a separate workstation using a download of SQL Server 2005 Developer edition and not require a separate license for the workstation?

i re-installed the SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE several times(4) trying to get the BIDS part to work. Each time i had the issue of it looking for the devenev.exe as others have mentioned. I gave up on a 5th install and went for the unsupported option of running vs_setup , after the toolkit.exe dumped all the install files to its temporary directory i went in there and ran it sperately...but essentially i did it the same way as this method...
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=368549&SiteID=1
while this did work, it seems to be the unsupported way.
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=665067&SiteID=1
Im not opposed to going back and doing it right, but was there ever a conclusion as to why the BIDS program sometimes doesnt install? im using 2k5 express products on this machine...
Hi all,
I have installed Sql server 2005 enterprise edition with the All the BI services (SSIS,SSAS,SSRS) . when i try to Install the Tools Like BIDS,documentation,sample databses. I am getting the error that foolowing compentes are already installed on the machine though they are not installed
Error message :None of the selected features can be installed or upgraded.Setup cannot Proceed since no effective change
is made to the machine.To continue,Click Back And then select features to install.To Exit SQL Server Setup,click cancel
I have installed vs2008 on my system
Kindly help
All of a sudden one of my projects/packages seems to have encountered a strange problem. First I tried to remove a data viewer which caused BIDS to crash and tell me that VS has encountered a problem and needs to close. This is repeatable every time I try to remove the data viewer or the link or the transforms or the entire data flow. How do I get around this besides starting from scratch and how do I figure out why this is happening and is there some fix?
thanks

I have SQL Server 2005 SP1 installed and none of my datasets will retain the mdx expressions but the report will still run

Well all bugs are annoying, but this one is particularly annoying because it kills the BIDS session with consequent loss of all changes made since the last save.
Click on a control flow task. Position the cursor so that it changes to the 4-way pointer. Drag the task a little bit. The UI locks up, and then BIDS disappears.
I can't repro this on demand, but it has happened about 6 times in the past month. Anyone else seen this one?
On several occasions I have experienced crashes while running an SSIS package in debug mode. It happens when I start process on Control Flow table and click on Data Flow tab to monitor progress. I have forwarded the error reports and have searched the boards for similar references. Is this problem going to be fixed?
