Can We Hide A Column If No Data Is Returned?
Feb 7, 2008
Hi All,
Is there a way to hide a column if there is no data for that column? Suppose that I have a SP (lets call it wrapper) which will call multiple SP's. But for any one run, there'll be only one SP which is called. But the columns returned by these SP's is obviously different. So, in order to accomodate the output, can I create a table, add all the possible columns to it, and set the properties of the individual columns such that they will be hidden if there is no data in them? Example, SP 1 returns - ServerName, Location, OS ; SP 2 returns ServerName and location only. Now if the wrapper SP calls only the second SP (SP 2) can I configure in such a way that the third column (OS) is not displayed at all? (In normal cases, it would appear but without any data in it)...
Hope the question is clear... Thanks a lot..
Manoj.

I have a strange problem. I have some code that executes a sql query. If I run the query in SQL server query analyzer, I get a set of data returned for me as expected. This is the query listed on lines 3 and 4. I just manually type it into query analyzer.
Yet when I run the same query in my code, the result set is slightly different because it is missing some data. I am confused as to what is going on here. Basically to examine the sql result set returned, I write it out to an XML file. (See line 16).
Why the data returned is different, I have no idea. Also writing it out to an XML file is the only way I can look at the data. Otherwise looking at it in the debugger is impossible, with the hundreds of tree nodes returned.
If someone is able to help me figure this out, I would appreciate it.
1. public DataSet GetMarketList(string region, string marketRegion)2. {3. string sql = @"SELECT a.RealEstMarket FROM MarketMap a, RegionMap b " + 4."WHERE a.RegionCode = b.RegionCode"; 5. DataSet dsMarketList = new DataSet();6. SqlConnection sqlConn = new SqlConnection(intranetConnStr); 7. SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql,sqlConn);8. sqlConn.Open();9. SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd); 10. try11. {12. adapter.Fill(dsMarketList);
13. String bling = adapter.SelectCommand.CommandText;//BRG 14. dsMarketList.DataSetName="RegionMarket"; 15. dsMarketList.Tables[0].TableName = "MarketList"; 16. dsMarketList.WriteXml(Server.MapPath ("myXMLFile.xml" )); // The data written to 17. myXMLFile.xml is not the same data that is returned when I run the query on line 3&4 18. // from the SQL query 19. } 20. catch(Exception e) 21. { 22. // Handle the exception (Code not shown)

I'm creating a report that is grouping the rows per year and month, as it does this there are certain rows that show up that I would like to hide since the value in one of the columns is < = 0. For the purpose of my report I don't needs these rows to be illustrated. How can I do this?
Thanks,Alex

I have a matrix that has the following columns:Date Shift Equipment1 Equipment2 Equipment3 etcBased on a parameter, i want to show/hide the Shift column. If the Shift column is hidden, i want to move the equipment columns over so there is no gap in the columns.I know you can do this in a table by hidding the whole column, but how do you do this in a matrix? when i try to hide the column the visibility option is not there, and when i hide the field, it leaves a gap in the report.Thanks for your help.

im working on a report which shows the data based on the users input. I have used a matrix because I have no control on how many fields the users want, so practically we have a dynamic column here. My problem is that they require me to able the user to hide the columns he/she wishes to during runtime. We have a previous report that enables the user to hide it during runtime but it has static column. Any idea on how I could do it?... Thank you so much...

I have a parameter in my report, and if it is set to Null or Zero, I want to hide a column. How would I do this? I have already tried using
Code Snippet=IIF(Parameters!Rate.Value >= 0, false, true)
in the Visibility property for the relevant column, but it doesn't make any difference. The column still shows up even if the Rate parameter is set to Null or zero. I only want the column to show if the user enters a value in the Rate parameter which is greater than zero.

I am using Reporting Services 2000. If you find out that Reporting Services 2005 would resolve this issue, please lemme know also. But I want to mention that I would prefer a way to fix this without changing Reporting Services versions.
I have a table that has a group on ProductTypes. This group is set to PageBreak at end.
What I need to do is to conditionally hide an entire column based on the current group's ProductType.
Examples
Page 1 = Product 1 = Column 1 is visible
Page 1 = Product 1 = Column 2 is visible
Page 2 = Product 2 = Column 1 is hidden
Page 2 = Product 2 = Column 1 is visible
Can you help me figure this one out ? I've tried everything I found on the net, especially everything on this page : http://blogs.msdn.com/chrishays/rss.xml
Thank you in advance.

Also If I use parameters , can reports be executed automatically?

Hi Experts,
I am extracting data from SQL Server 2005 to flat file destination. I am using SQL Command to specify the data selection query. One of my query uses Replicate function to derive a column value. When I execute this package it fails with the error "Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "value" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page".
The reason for the problem is that, it is taking the InputColumnWidth of the flat file destination as 8000 and I specified the OutputColumnWidth as 4.
If I change the OutputColumnWidth to 8000, it is working without any error but resulting in the column width of 8000.
I tried using DerivedColumn Transformation's Type cast and DataConversion Transformation but still I am getting the same error in the respective Transformation components.
Can anyone suggest how to solve this issue.

Hi all,
Is it possible to show or hide columns in a report on the fly, i.e. without having to run the report again?
I have a report in with a parameter to let the user choose between the data to show. However the customer doesn't like it that he has to rerun the report. Any help would be appreciated!
Regards,
Henk

I have a web page that has been in production for over a year. On occasion the web app users report sporadic errors which last a few minutes then go away. The page loads up a generic DataSet, and then that DataSet is assigned to a datagrid on the page. The error is that a column that is expected to be in the dataset is not found. I know this column must exist in the database because its a required field. After we reset IIS, then all returns to normal and the errors go away. Below is the stack trace.
Exception: System.IndexOutOfRangeException Message: Cannot find column LastName. Source: System.Data at System.Data.DataTable.ParseSortString(String sortString) at System.Data.DataView.UpdateIndex(Boolean force) at System.Data.DataView.SetIndex(String newSort, DataViewRowState newRowStates, DataFilter newRowFilter) at System.Data.DataView..ctor(DataTable table, String RowFilter, String Sort, DataViewRowState RowState) at MySystem.Web.GuestSearch.ShowResults(DataSet ds, Int32 currentPageIndex) at MySystem.Web.GuestSearch.LoadResults(Int32 currentPageIndex) at MySystem.GuestSearch.btnSearch_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.System.Web.UI.IPostBackEventHandler.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(IPostBackEventHandler sourceControl, String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(NameValueCollection postData) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain()
Our DBA can find no problems on the database side and our web servers don't log any system event problems either. I do not understand why resetting IIS helps the issue. I need to find the real cause of the problems rather than just resetting IIS all the time. Any ideas?

say i have a table, and in it are two columns, column1 and column2 and i do the following query:
SELECT column1, column2 FROM table WHERE column2 = '12345'
i want to check if column1 has all the same values, so in the first case, no
column1 column2
------- --------
4 12345
9 12345
5 12345
column1 column2
------- --------
9 12345
9 12345
9 12345
in the 2nd case, column1 contains all the same values, so yes
is there anyway i can check this? i would be doing this in a trigger.. say when a new row is inserted, the value of column1 is inserted, but col 2 is null.. so when they try to fill in the value for col2 of that row, the trigger checks to see if the value they put for col 2 is already in the table.. if it isn't, then everything is ok. but if it is already in teh table, then it checks col1 to see if all the values of col1 are the same
i hope this makes sense
thanks

Hi there,
I¡¦ve got a table with the following as well as other info:
User ID

Region ID (int)
I need to run a query where I could get the region ID, then, in the second column, I¡¦d get all distinct directory types within that region. For example, if I run the query:
subRegionAreaID directoryTypeID
--------------- ---------------
3 1
3 2
3 3
3 9
If need these results to be:
subRegionAreaID directoryTypeID
--------------- ---------------
3 1, 2, 3, 9
Is this possible?
Many Thanks!! ļ

Hi
In a query in Management Studio, I want to output data to a text file (via Results in text button) without column names and hyphens or dashes, I have searched all SET commands with bad luck because SET FMTONLY OFF do exactly the opposite.
I know this could be a silly question because I have received suggestions in other ways to do that, but I am intrigued If there is a way to prevent column name from being displayed/returned from a query.
@@version yields

I am building reports against our TFS development db.
One of the reports tracks days spent (Dwell Time) in various status categories (eg: New, Assigned, In Development, Hold, etc) for a given "ticket".
For a fixed list of values from {Work Item].System_State, I can send the results (days in Assigned) to the column named (Assigned) for each status for each event in the [Work Item History], and then sum them for each ticket as:
Ticket ID New Assigned InDev etc
1230001 2 0 0 ...
1230001 0 1 2 ....
SUM 2 1 2 ....
However, I have many different Projects, each of which use their own Status names.
I don't want to duplicate the same basic report, if I can avoid it.
How can I name and generate this data for the unique Status list for each Project?
Simplest analog is: name = First(Fields!Status.Value, "TFSdb")
and allows value for a column name (category) as: =IIF(Fields!Status.Value = First(Fields!Status.Value, "TFSdb"), Fields!Days.Value, 0)
However this fails beause:
1. It only delivers the FIRST status value, and,
2. I cannot SUM an expression which is itself an aggregate (using First).

I have a question regarding the values returned in the SEARCHABLE column of the system stored procedure sp_datatype_info. What do ALL of the values mean? The SQL Server BOL only provides meanings for the values 0 and 1, but I am also seeing values 2 and 3. What are the meanings of these values?

Is is possible to hide "salary" or other sensitive data from a person who is a Sys-Admin. My belief is that there is no way. Please correct me.....
Assumptions: SQL Service account has Local Admin privelege.
Sysadmin can do anything on local machine, including run scripts adding themselves to any default/instance of SQL on the machine.
Please direct me to any other source of information for this topic.

I can preview the SQL command in the OLE DB Source Editor and bring back all columns and results just fine but when I click on the Columns I get
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio

The component reported the following warnings:
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Source [1]]: No column information was returned by the SQL command.
The columns are there in the preview - why can't SSIS get the column information?

Hi, I was wondering if any SQL Server gurus out there could help me...I
have a table which contains text resources for my application. The text
resources are multi-lingual so I've read that if I add a html language
indicator meta tag e.g.<META NAME="MS.LOCALE" CONTENT="ES">and
store the text in a varbinary column with a supporting Document Type
column containing ".html" of varchar(5) then the full text index
service should be intelligent about the language word breakers it
applies when indexing the text. (I hope this is correct technique for
best multi-lingual support in a single table?)However, when I come to query this data the results always return 0 rows (no errors are encountered). e.g.DECLARE @SearchWord nvarchar(256)SET @SearchWord = 'search' -- Yes, this word is definitely present in my resources.SELECT * FROM Resource WHERE CONTAINS(Document, @SearchWord)I'm a little puzzled as Full Text search is working fine on another table that employs an nvarchar column.Any pointers / suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,Gavin.

I want to be able to remove rows from the report if certain data in the row is 0. If a sales division has no sales for a district. there is no reason to show the district name or even to show an empty space for the row. I want to suppress the entire row without the user being able to see it or unhide it.
Is this possible?

Hi All,
I'm stuck up with a strange problem.
When i try to setup a Transform Data task in DTS, the table drop down shows fully qualified table name.
i.e. <database name>.<schema name>.<table name>
as you can see in the attached screenshot. With this I cant see the full table name and am not able to make the correct selection.
Where can i change the properties so that it displays only the table name?
Thanks
Rohit
