When I try to run a simple table report using Safari or Firefox the experience is less than stellar.
Using Safari the report never returns, basically the pag body is blank.
Using Firefox the table layout is very compressed.
Anything changes in the works to allow the reporting server to be used by non IE browser.
We run in a multi-platform environment and need the multiple browser support.
Thanks.

Dear Friends,
my server is sqlserver 2005. iam writing sps in sql 2000 . if i open in sql 2005 the alignment of my sps is changed. i have changed the tab order of 2005 as equal to 2000.then also the problem comes. so plz give me solution to solve the problem.
Does anyone else have this issue?
When making a report with VS2005, things get spaced out wierd and dropped down when deployed to the web?
I can't get things like images to position properly. Does it have anything to do with the fact that I am using a Matrix?
For example, I create an image and embed it, I have it all the way to the left of the form and when deployed it is more towards the middle of the page?
Very frustrating, just wondering if anyone has any tips/solutions.
After i upload the report to server , and try to convert it to excel, the alignment of report is out!!the width of columns is different with the width i set in design..=.= however, the report is pretty when i preview in reporting servcise design.
Anyone face same problem?
Hi there,
I'm using the SQL 2005 Express Edition and i would like to know if there's any way to change the Table alignment to Right To Left.
Please if you can, send me your reply to my E-Mail address: zaki666@zahav.net.il
Hope you can help me,

Hi All,
I am working on a report, in this report a textbox is present, which is expected to show string. This string length is larger than what textbox can accommodate in single line. I want this textbox to show only right part of the string in case it can accommodate full string.
After using the right alignment I assumed it would do show, however it does not work like that. It always shows the left part of string in case, string is bigger than width of textbox.
Restriction from design:
1. Cannot increase the width of textbox.
2. Cannot use the Can Grow = true to show string in multiple lines.
Below is the example of my issue:
Say there is a string: "Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services".
because the textbox width is not sufficient to see full string, I want to "Reporting Service". Which is of same size which column can accommodate. So I used Right alignment in textbox. however text box shows "Microsoft SQL Server". So, is there a solution to see required text in the textbox.
Greeting
I have more than one language installed on my computer, and I tried to use my Enterprise Manager yesterday... What Im getting is with all the GUI im using Im having everything is Right Aligned.....
Any help as to what I should change?
Thanks
This is my first post so would be great to have a qucik and handy answer :D
I am representing negative number within parenthesis , but as I am working on reporting service, it is possible to make the exact alignment of the number and parenthesis.
here is one example ....
when i format number with #,##,0;(#,##,0) i am getting output in a format in subsequent rows like
123,345
(145,567)
How can I make this alignment like
123,345
(145,567)
where the parenthesis will be outside the number space keeping in mind the alignment is in right .
any help will be apriciated.
thanks

When I open a .NET report viewer in Netscape or Firefox, the report is compressed to a small sliver on the left hand side of the screen. However, the report displays properly in Internet Explorer.
Is there special code that I have to put in place to get a report viewer to display properly in netscape or firefox?
I've seen many posts about lack of non-IE browser compatibility, but still no solution (MyIEtab ISN'T a solution). The CSS fix solves it partially, but not completely, and the fix of putting a rectangle in the top is just a joke.
Currently my reports can't be browsed by Firefox and other Mac browsers, and that's going to be a stopper for further using of SSRS in the future in my company. I was expecting SP2 to do something about this, but it hasn't solved anything. I'm sure it's a very easy patch for MS, but by maintaining this (artificial?) limitation they're going to make us move from SSRS and even the full SQL Server stack for future projects.
Any other *real* solution, other than CSS and big rectangle in the top of the report?
Hi,
We are using the RSClientPrint component to print reports from our web application. When we use it from IE all works fine. But on using the FireFox the print method fails. I am using following code to print
Code Snippet
var oRSClientPrint = window.document.getElementById("RSClientPrint");
alert(oRSClientPrint);
if (typeof oRSClientPrint.Print == "undefined")
{
alert("Unable to load client print control.");
return;
}
In FireFox above code fails by raising error message "Unable to load client print control.". As per me FireFox is not able to use the Print method of object, Can you help me on how we can make it to work with FireFox.
Thanks and Regards,

I've yet to use partitioning in a production environment, and pretty much last ran any partitioning related code a few years back when looking at certification; so I'm definitely not an expert on the matter and only loosely clued up on the concepts.
I've recently started with a new employer, and they have just implemented a new system for sms messaging. The database tables tracking the sms messages being sent are going to get big and so they have created decided to implement partitioning on some of the tables using a partition scheme on the CreatedDate column; the DBA involved in designing the partitioning has left and I'm picking this up.
The relevant DDL for the table is below:-
CREATE TABLE [Message].[Sms](
[SmsId] [bigint] IDENTITY(250000001,1) NOT NULL,
[CreatedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_Sms:CreatedDate] DEFAULT (getdate()),
CONSTRAINT [PK_Sms:SmsId] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED
[code]....
There are some issues with the above that I will be addressing seperately (e.g. the clustered index should be unique as it contians the unique key, and the fillfactors are daft), but my concerns for this post are below.
1) How to define the Primary Key and enforce it's uniqueness whilst trying to ensure it's aligned with the partition in order to be able to switch out old data once an as yet undefined retention period has passed. In books online it states:- "If it is not possible for the partitioning column to be included in the unique key, you must use a DML trigger instead to enforce uniqueness. " Books online - Special Guidelines for Partitioned Indexes. However, I'm not sure what this means, nor how I create the primary key to use the partition function seeing as it doesn't have the CreatedDate in the unique key?
2) The original partition function was envisaged as the following:-
CREATE PARTITION FUNCTION [DateFunction](datetime) AS RANGE
LEFT FOR VALUES (N'2014-01-01T00:00:00.000'
, N'2014-04-01T00:00:00.000'
, N'2014-07-01T00:00:00.000'
, N'2014-10-01T00:00:00.000'
, N'2015-01-01T00:00:00.000'
, N'2015-04-01T00:00:00.000'
, N'2015-04-02T00:00:00.000'
, N'2015-04-03T00:00:00.000'
, N'2015-04-04T00:00:00.000'
, N'2015-04-05T00:00:00.000')

There is a procedure that has been created and scheduled daily that will create a new partition for each day, and then merge these together at the end of the quarter. My understanding of partitioning is that this is a bad idea, as it will result in merging several populated partitions together. Is my understanding correct? If so, I'm planning on removing the day partitions at the end of the function, and simply adding quarterly partitions, maintaining a spare empty partition at the end of the table. Would this make more sense?
Can we have more than 2 parameters displayed in a single row on report (when browsed using web browser). The parameters BY DEFAULT - seems to be lined up in an array of 2 columns, and N rows - which gets frustrating because so much of space is left blank (gray space just left of <View Report> button and to the right of parameters line-up).
How can we have more than 2 parameters displayed in one single row ? As this will help the actual report content to take up more space on the screen than the parametes taking up almost 1/2 of the screen.
Thanks a bunch for ideas.

I understand that in 2008 server it'll align the disks for you automatically. I've run the following commands on another one of my DB servers and the offset was 1024 on all of them. I get the following from my other DB server and it doesn't list the alignment on every partition save the first one.
DISKPART> select disk 0
Disk 0 is now the selected disk.
DISKPART> list partition
 Partition ### Type             Size    Offset

Need to verify that all is fine with my file system or do I need to repartion everything? My DB servers are in a virtualized environment using EqualLogic and VMWare.There is always a way...
I would like to know how to show all the records returned (upto 1000) in one single page on a web browser. I am able to get the required report in IE but in case of Firefox it hangs.
Did some test and found that Firefox is able to render a report of upto max 300 records in a single page without getting hanged but report is coming very slow. While you scroll the scroll bar it€™s moving with Jerks. with 200 records in a single page is not getting hanged but report is faster than 300 records display. But by 500 records Firefox hangs. I understand it might be depending on the hardware also but am not sure.
Can anybody give me a good solution to display upto 1000 records in a single page or if its a limitation, where can i get the documentation of it.
Thanks and regards

Because of some peculiar way of using CSS, the reports aren't rendered correctly in Firefox. I've tryed specifying different rendering options (html 4 for instance) but it didn't help. What are my options on this? I could use Webservices (SOAP) and wrap SSRS in a proxy, but I'd have to parse reports and extract the data and build my own presentation layer. This way I'd be missing half of the SSRS functionality. Any ideas?

I am experiencing a problem with the multi-value parameter dropdown in the ReportViewer when using FireFox, but in IE it seems to work fine. The symptom is when I click on the dropdown the list of options appears and then quickly disappears before I can select anything and I only experience the problem with multi-value parameters. I also have noticed that the dropdown is grayed out but I can still click it. Also, the position of the dropdown options are different in FireFox (pushed all the way to the left). I have created a very basic example at https://www.register4this.com/testreport.aspx to demonstrate the problem. There is no report, only the single "Orgs" parameter to keep things as simple as possible.
I suspect that I am missing something obvious because I haven't been able to find anyone else reporting this issue so any help would be appreciated. My ReportView control is configured as follows:

<rsweb:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" runat="server" AsyncRendering="False" Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="8pt" Height="400px" ProcessingMode="Remote" Width="400px">

Im on WHS 2003 using Visual Wev b Devloper 2005 express edition. I was using Firefox in RDC because IE is so cut back for WHS2003 anyway. Reconfigured IE security settings and uninstalled Firefox. I'm using a step by step tutatorial to build a web page. WHen I click on Website from WWD and go to ASP.net configuration it want FIrefox. I spent hours looking for file assocation, tool box's and am just plain lost. Can anyone tell me how to get IE back. OH ya XP Pro 4 months new and the error message is :Could not Launch C:programfilesmozillafirefox Path not found. SO the whole program stops at this point Ive unistalled all prorams and used differant file names second time around and luck it want FIrefox
Thanks Rick.
Sorry, but I am returning to Firefox browser and the squished fields. While running under VS-TFS and developing a web application, I view my report with Cassini back-end server (debug/F5). I cut and paste the URL line into Firefox. The report views just fine. I deploy the report to the web site and now the same report viewing with Firefox exhibits the famous squished columns (wow). If I understand this correctly, this would indicate that the problem is not Firefox but IIS rendering. What are your feelings?

Report in question is an invoice form. It requires an absolutely bottom-of-page aligned footer that has databound elements.
This is so that whatever page that footer finally appears on will print in such a way that the address will align in a windowed envelope.
Ironically, Books Online gives this exact scenario in explaining headers and footers in SSRS, but they cleverly don't explain how an absolutely bottom-of-page-aligned and data-bound footer can be made to happen. Headers at absolute page top is obviously no problem. Footers at page bottom, not so much.
So, this is not a "page footer"--page footers are employed in the body. Also this footer is databound, so a page footer as it's known in SSRS is out the window anyway.
Most of the time this will print on a single page, but if it breaks to multiple pages, that footer needs to go all the way to the absolute bottom.
I grasp that the "report footer" for SSRS is just what appears at the end of any repeating controls that you've implemented in your body. Because SSRS uses this kind of repeating-control based idiom rather than a section-based idiom as Crystal does, this kind of (what I would consider very basic) positioning control is looking fairly impossible right now.
Among what I've tried:
--Page footer (can't; databound)
--Specifying a page break after the pre-footer controls, and/or a page break before the controls that make up the footer in their properties. This leads to unpredictable results with blank printed pages (as many as 8 for what previews as a 2-page report, how silly is that?).
--Putting in a page-height rectangle as part of the footer (with and without the page breaks mentioned above), with the idea of forcing a basically blank page at the end of the report so that the footer will go to the bottom. SSRS will go ahead and break the page anyway on long elements like that, which again leads to the "footer" being printed in the middle or top of the final page, or whereever it happens to fall.
I may be having to explain to my client that you can't get there from here, and they may have to redesign their report. Does anyone have any insight?
Thank you for your time in reading this.

When I deploy a report, and then browse to it with FireFox, I only see 2 inces of the report. I can scroll through the entire report, but only see the 2 inch window's worth at any time.
Its like the html element the report gets put into has a hard coded height, and doesnt auto size to show the eintire report.
It works fine with IE, but we are a FireFox shop.
Anyone know how to fix this?
