I have created a report with a stored proc which takes a parameter whose default value is null. Now when I run my stored proc in Enterprise Manager without any params I get 4 rows otherwise with proper parameter I get 2 rows.
Now I set the params value to allow for Null and blank values. When I run the report if I provide parameter value it works fine but if i try to run it without any param it shows an empty report while the stored proc running without params shows 4 rows.
I have earlier sucessfully created reports where stored procs had 4 params out of which 3 where defaulted to null. And so I set the allow nulls, Allow Blanks values to be true for those params in Rep services. So when I selected value for 1st param and ran the report I got the desired report. But this time I have only one param which can be null. But its not working.
Hi all. My name is Guilherme and I'm a Braziliam software developer.
I've installed on my computer all the software required to work with MS SQL RS. I log on this computer using my domain user. and a few days ago i needed to change my password (network policy)
Now, when I open the adress http://localhost/reports on my computer, I can't see the installed reports, neither the configuration page.
I have a table which has a blank as owner name when I see on Enterprise manager. Sp_changeobjectowner is not working on this to change the owner name to dbo.I am still able to create another table with same name under dbo.But I want to get rid of the table which has no ownername. When i run the drop table command it doesn't drop that!!It says invalid object!!Any help!! thanks, Di.
I have a cube that has a Dimension set up with several values some of which are bools. While Browsing in Excel or SSMS, two new values, when used as a filter shows (All) (Blank) and (True) for selections instead of (All) (True) and (False).
I have developed a custom report item that works fine in design and preview mode while in Visual Studio. I cannot get it to show up on my deployed reports. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Deployed the report using Visual Studio
2. updated the rsreportserver.config file with the following entry:
I've also tried using the StrongNameMembershipCondition with no better results.
4. The dll and its dependencies are copied to the bin directory of the report server.
5. When I load a report with this custom report item on it, the report loads fine with no errors or warnings in the log file (even with verbose tracing). The area where the custom item should be is just white. It's almost like Reporting Services isn't registering the item correctly.
This is particularly frustrating because the report works fine in Visual Studio - apparently I configured that correctly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm stumped.
Does anyone know the trick when inserting an empty variable into a MSSQL table for it to show as null and not a blank or a zero? It is a php variable. Thanks
so far, i'd read a lot of books and search from internet, i still don't very understand the difference between of NULL and balnk value. can anybody help to explain on it?
Hi,My question is, is there any difference between a NULL and a Blank(Unknown, Not Applicable) field in MS SQL or are they the same?Awaiting your comments,Regards
Lets say I have two multi-value parameters on a report. One is required, the other is not. The multi-value parameter that is not required is allowed to be blank. In the WHERE clause of my query I wanted to do this:
Code Snippet AND EXISTS (SELECT * FROM SomeTable AS ST_1 WHERE (MyCode IN (@My_Codes2)) OR @My_Codes2 IS NULL)
Of course I can't do that since multi-value parameters are not allowed to be null. I see that they are allowed to be blank, but how do I check for that? I tried
Code Snippet
OR @My_Codes2=''
That doesn't work. I can set a default value of 'None' and say:
Code Snippet
OR @My_Codes2='None'
Unfortunately this doesn't work. As long as the default value is 'None' it's fine. When I fill in the parameter I get the following error:
An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near ','.
Please note that I am not using a TSQL stored procedure here. It's just a plain old embedded SQL statement.
If a database's collation is blank under enterprise manager and NULL with SELECT DATABASEPROPERTYEX('<Database_Name>', 'Collation') does this mean it has the same collation as the server?
The reason I ask is that I restored a database with a different collation to my server and so I expected the different collation name to show up. Its showing as blank though... I thought databases kept their original collation even if restored to another server. (The database was restored as a new database).
I am passing few parameters to the sql function to do some calculations. If the input parameter is null or blank, then I want to set the input parameter to the value zero
Hi, where I return the address details, in some of the fields they are blank, I need these blank fields as nulls, how do i do that ?
Thanks

I have a VS2005 Windows application that displays a reportviewer (SQL 2005) report in a tab control, then displays a second report in a second tab with reportviewer, and so on. The really strange thing is that I had this application working for about 3 months. I even had up to 30 reports in 30 tabs at one point. BUT, for some reason now all I get is the first report and the second, third, etc. tabs show a reportviewer with "Report being generated" that never displays the report. Even worse, another user is able to run this application and DOES get all the reports displayed. So what could have been updated on my PC that is causing this problem?
The last page of the report has a table or rectangle (tried both) which is supposed to be invisible based on a parameter. However, the page still shows up with only the header! Apparently the report knows that the next element (table or rectangle) has to be on a new page, and only too late figures out that the element is invisible.
Anybody else encountered this, or has a solution? Thanks
Data from as400 imports into SQL with blank fields which is the way as400 outputs records. How can you insert previous record of data null or blank field. ex:
I have a SQL Agent job that runs at 4:15 in the morning. The job has 5 steps, each step only runs if the preceding step succeeds. The second step, which calls an SSIS package that does the main processing, appears to finish as it goes on to the next step; however, when looking in 'View History' there are 2 entries for this step - the first one shows it as still running (Circled Green Arrow) but with a start and end time. The second entry says the job succeeded.
I have been seeing conflicts, such as deadlocks, with later jobs. I suspect this job is causing the conflicts - maybe the package is still running in the background instead of having actually completed?
what conditions a job step my be showing in the job history as both running AND completed successfully?
i have a trigger on a table right now... when fields are inserted, theres a text field inserted and i want to check if that text field = '' (the empty string, not NULL) and if it doesn't equal that, then perform some row updates on other tables, but if it is empty, to not do anything else in the trigger... right now i have this:
Code:
IF ((SELECT Note FROM XATPoDetail WHERE ReqNbr = (SELECT ReqNbr FROM Inserted)) LIKE(''))
Note is the text field, XATPoDetail is the table where its being inserted into. I had to do the select FROM the table because it wouldn't let me select a text data type from the "Inserted" virtual table
but it tells me me "Error 279: The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery or aggregate expression"

I am attempting to update a sql db using the update and parameter code in VB.net 2003 through MSDE for a web application. It updates changed data OK, but if the textbox value is deleted, the code does not update the sql db. I am new to this, and I'm sure it is something simple. Here is some sample code.
With cmdCategoriesUpdate .Parameters("@Field1Tag").Value = txtFld1.Text .Parameters("@Field2Tag").Value = txtFld2.Text End With cmdCategoriesUpdate.ExecuteNonQuery() SqlConnection1.Close()
I have deployed a report in our server. After few days I tried accessing the report in Internet Explorer. It shows old data. Then I verified the .rdl file in BIDS. There it show actual data. So I deleted the Deployed report in Report manager and done the fresh report deployment.But Still it shows wrong / Incorrect data.Then I tried accessing the same Report link through Mozilla Browser.There it shows the perfect value.
All users are accessing the report in IE only. How to fix this issue.
Additional Info: The same link works fine in One of my colleague system (IE). Then I verified his IE version. He was using IE 11.But I'm also using same version.
Then I verified with some other systems. There they found the same issue which I faced. They were also using IE 11.
In SSIS flat file import using fastload, I'm trying to import data into SQL 2005 previously created tables.
The table may contain column that are NULLable BUT there is NO DEFAULT for them.
If the incoming data from flat files contains nothing either between the delimeters, how can I have a NULL value inserted in the column instead of blank/empty string?
I didn't find an easy flag unless I'm doing something wrong. I know of at least two ways to do it the hard way:
1- set the DEFAULT(NULL) for EVERY column that needs this behaviour
2-set up some Derived Column option in the package to return NULL if the value is missing.
Both of the above are time consuming since I'm dealing with many tables. Is there a quick option to default the value to NULL WHEN there is NO data ELSE insert the data itself? So the same behavior that I have right now except that I want NULL in place of empty string/blank in the varchar(x) columns.
I need to calculate the success rate of our OS Patch deployments. the data from system is stored in SQL with corresponding states (installed, missing, ...)
I would need to provide monthly report that shows how successful the deployment was for particular patchgroup. I have the following 2 dummy tables (just used as example)
table5 ==> Table containing patch groups + patches table6 ==> Table with machines names, patches and patch state
select * from table5 pgrouppatch GROUP1PATCH1 GROUP1PATCH2 GROUP1PATCH3 GROUP1PATCH4
[Code] ....
Result would be pgroup install missing group1 80% 20% group2 50% 50% group3 55% 45%
Ideally I would like to do this in T-SQL but if necessary can also do this in .NET Function. Only mention this but both Patchgroup and machines are dynamic each month can be different.
below are the sql scripts to create tables and populate with data
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table5]( [pgroup] [varchar](128) NOT NULL, [patch] [nvarchar](128) NOT NULL ) CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table6]( [machinename] [varchar](128) NOT NULL,
We run std 2008. In my ssrs log I see this for one of our most critical reports...
library!ReportServer_0-64!2244!07/07/2015-08:24:53:: Call to GetPermissionsAction(/somedirectory/somedirectory1).... which I assume is an indication of a report starting to render by first checking permissions.
Around the time my user says he still saw the revolving arrow and he stopped the report because he felt it was running too long, I see...
webserver!ReportServer_0-64!1dbc!07/07/2015-08:54:44:: i INFO: Processed report. Report='/somedirectory/somedirectory1/importantreport', Stream=''
How can it be true that he stopped it and ssrs reports that it processed the report?
About 4 minutes later I see this entry in the log...
webserver!ReportServer_0-64!15e4!07/07/2015-08:58:34:: i INFO: Processed report. Report='/somedirectory/somedirectory1/importantreport', Stream=''
Which processed report message is right? Could there be multiples cuz of subreports? I see a number of errors and exceptions around these same times but do not know how to tie either to a specific report. Is there a way?
I have created a report that works how I want it in the visual studio 2003 designer. I have deployed it to our test box (sql server 2k, reporting services with sp2) and when we preview the report, there is a giant white space between the graph in the report and the matrix object below it. This white space was not in the designer. It only shows when previewing the report. If you print from the report manager, it does not print the white space.
Is there a way to remove it from the report manager when the report is previewed? I am sure users will complain when they see this.
I have a rdl where its working fine while report preview, for parameter it shows <Select a value> only first select . for next select its just showing dropdown list of values .
How can i get <select a value> for all selections. I referred few links which says only for first select you will get <select a value> ,from second select it just shows dropdown.
If we want <select a value> again then we should go back design part and then preview again. But I don't want. What is the possible way to see <select a value> for every select without going back to design.
I need to convert a a string column to integer. Before converting, I need to check if it has blank values then convert it to NULL. Someone told me that its easier to convert it to NULL before converting to integer.
In my report i have CNAME parameter , which allows null value. I checked Allow null value check box in report parameter properties.
when i preview the report , it displays checked NULL check box beside CNAME parameter . I want to give some meaningful name(i.e.ALLCustomers) to this checkbox instead of NULL.
I've created a simple .rdl report and seems to show the preview under my visual studio. But, when I add the .rdl file into the server and export them to be a .PDF, The pdf is created with two blank pages for every single page with data. Please comment me to fix this.
I created a report with multiy pages and in between every page of data is a blank page. If the Report is Sixteen pages long i get eight blank pages. The Body size of the report is 8.5in, 25.475in. The Report porperities or 8.5 x 11in. Each page has a table with a page break at start set to true. But I still get blank pages in between the report.
