I am using the open source RDL generator project to create report definitions at runtime.
However, the RDL generator appears to generate code in an old rdl format.
When I copy the XML code into my report, I get the following message: "The file Report1.rdl must be converted to the current report definition format. After it has been coverted, you cannot edit this file with previous versions of Report Designer. Do you want to convert this file?"
After I convert the file, the report looks great.
The problem is that I don't want to have to copy the XML code to the report everytime and run this conversion. Is there any way to run the conversion from Visual Studio in my program? Then the XML code would be right from the get-go.
Using MS SQL 200 SP4 with Reporting Services 2000 SP2 on Win 2003 Server SP1
Visual Studio .NET 2003 on different PC (Win XP SP2)
No problem creating reports or building solutions. Problems develop when deploying report to Report Server.
Here is the Output:
------ Build started: Project: From CD, Configuration: Debug ------
Build complete -- 0 errors, 0 warnings
------ Deploy started: Project: From CD, Configuration: Debug ------
Deploying to http://<server name>/ReportServer?%2f2nd Deploying data source '/2nd/AdventureWorks2000'. Deploying report 'Vendor Purchase Orders'. The report definition is not valid. Details: Could not find schema information for the element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition:Report'. Deploy complete -- 1 errors, 0 warnings
These are my first attempts using report services. In a previous deployment attempts it created the folder (named 2nd), but in another attempt (saving it to the existing folder) I got the same result as you see above (I have also tried with a new folder but no luck). This above output is from my last attempt.
The Build error Task List states:
The Report Definition is not valid. Details: Could not find schema information for the element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition:report'.
The shema URL as above returns HTTP 404. If I remove :report, I receive the page for Report Definition Language Schema May 2004
Looking at the .rdl code the schema URL is as above without :report.
As you can imagine with a limited skill set in this area I am quite confused. I have been doing alot of research but found nothing to help (or that I understand will help) so far.
If anyone can help me get through this I would appreciate it.
I have a set of csv files and a set of Format Specification files for each of the csv files. I need to convert the csv files into another format of csv files as specified in the Format Specification files. All the columns of the input csv files do not have a mapping with the columns of the output csv files. How can I achieve this using SSIS ? This is an urgent requirement. Please reply asap. Thanks.
I have a 2005 .Net 2.0 solution that includes two projects, a windows project and a Reporting Services project. The report viewer is apart of the windows project and I am wanting to open reports in the RS project but keep getting a 'the report definition has not been specified' error.
I set the ReportPath to point to the physical path of the RS project but it does no good.
Anyone have any idea how to run a report that is not apart of the project?
I am having an issue with generating a table for an report on the fly. I have been referring to the example on www.gotreportviewer.com and their example works fine but when i attempt to do my own version (by adding the table, I get the following error:
The report definition is not valid. Details: The element 'TableColumns' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2005/01/reportdefinition' has incomplete content.
List of possible elements expected: 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2005/01/reportdefinition:TableColumn'.
From my understanding 'TableColumns' was not expected even though i reference it correctly in my code and I it is defined in the ReportDefinition. It also causes no problems for the example from the above website.
The definition of report xxx is invalid. More than one data set, data region, or grouping in the report has the name €˜CustomerName€™. Data set, data region, and grouping names must be unique within a report.
I am doing a simple report from the TFS warehouse - and a single group with 1 detail line. The layout was done and it worked fine - then I deployed it and it works on the deployed site - but has stopped working in the Solution itself !!
I've even removed the Table and all fields from the Layout - and the Preview still gives the error.
When publish report define file (SSRS2008 ) to SSRS2008 server , it throws that the report definition is not valid. But I use VS2008 deploy it and  it is succeeded to publish to SSRS2008 Server. Why ?

Hi!I'm wondering is there any simple way to achieve the followingfunction call in SQL Server. The sentence to translate is (Oraclesyntax):to_char(rownum, '000')rownum: number of the current rowto_char: formats a number (the 1st param) according to the formatdefined in the 2nd param. In this case, the '000' preprends 2 or morezeros until forming a 3-digit number.I'm using it in something like:SELECT id_table, string_column || TO_CHAR(ROWNUM,'000') FROM tableThanx a bunch,Cro
I would like to know if there is a way to maintain the history of changes to the reports that have been published to the report server?
I know that the report definitions get saved onto ReportServer database. But let's say a user makes a change to the published report and then saves it back to the server. And that the latest change was incorrect and I have to revert back to the previous version of the published report. Is there a way to do that? Does the report server maintain a history of previous versions.
There is a history for each report and I think that corresponds to the history of report executions (output data). But I am talking about the history of actual report definition.

To use Reporting Services as a rendering engine I want to configure a local user on the server that has only the minimum set of permissions and user rights. The server is W2K3 SP2 and SQL 9.0.3200.
In particular, this local user has been removed from the local "Users" group and so is the "Authenticated Users" built-in group. In Reporting Services, it is mapped to a role that only has the "Execute Report Definitions" task permission.
Then, following the details in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812614/ (Default permissions and user rights for IIS 6.0) I added all file security and local user rights required for "Users" and also granted and propagated "Read&Execute" on the "Reporting Services" folder and verified this using "Effective Permissions" on the ReportService2005.asmx file.
However, I still get 401 Unauthorized, also after a complete restart of all related machines and services.
Once I add the user or "Authenticated Users" back to "Users" everything works fine.
What permissions might I be missing? Where could I find those permission requirements documented?
I tried analyzing the 401 using auditing file and object access security but to no avail. There are no Failure audit entries in the Security log.
How can I investigate the minimum permission set?
What is the risk of leaving the user in the "Users" local group?
I am using SQL server 2008 R2. I have a query where I have dates in different columns pulled from my database among other things. The client is requiring that the date be formatted as mmddyyyy. The database returns the date value as varchar (8) and formatted as yyyymmdd. I have tried several things to get this to be converted but haven't had any luck. My query is as follows.
select appointments.last_name as 'patient last name', appointments.first_name as 'patient first name', appointments.address_line_1, appointments.address_line_2, appointments.city, appointments.state, appointments.zip, appointments.home_phone, appointments.appt_nbr, appointments.appt_date, person.date_of_birth, person.sex, patient.med_rec_nbr, provider_mstr.national_provider_id, provider_mstr.first_name,
Hello Everyone, Please guide me in converting the value to date format. from source i'm getting the value (which is acchally a data value) '20070730'. I need this value to be in date format '2007/07/30' Please help me in getting it done. thank you
Hi, I have a function that generates a range of DateTimes, which I then cast to SqlDateTime to compare with SqlDateTime values in a database. The problem is my converted DateTimes come out in this type of format "6/2/2006 12:00:00 AM" wheras my SqlDateTimes in the database are in this format "2006-01-18T00:00:00.0000000-12:00" Any ideas how I can convert the DateTime values to SqlDateTime correctly so that I can compare them? As I said I tried creating a new SqlDateTime object with the DateTime value ie DateTime dt = new DateTime(""); SqlDateTime sdt = new SqlDateTime(dt); But that doesn't work correctly, its still not in the format that is in the database.
I need help with conversion type. I'm using Visual Basic 6.0 as my frontend and SQL Server 2000 as my backend. There has been existing data in the database. I would like to know how to convert an integer to datetime format. For example:
This is the actual value from the database.

I'd like to know how to convert it datetime format.
I am trying to import a txt file that has a string for it's date. How do I change it over in the import wizard I've tried going to advance then changing from string to date or date time but I get an error.
I have a datetime field in my table. I call that field with a different software & it comes out in an unexpected format.
My db table stores it in unix format: 2013-08-12 09:29:00.000
But the software pulls it as: 8/12/2013 9:29:00 AM
I know it's possible, but I don't know how. How do I explicitly call it (in SQL) as a unix timestamp. Or how do I convert to a unix timestamp from the available data above?

I've got a source database that has a lot of tables with the dates in a proprietary decimal format. I need to read the tables in and place in a SQL database in a proper date format. In the past this has been done in a user defined SQL Server function that just takes in the decimal, and returns a date.
I can't see how I would run this on a column in SSIS. How would I go about it? I've tried accessing the function from straight SQL in various components, and in a named query, but none seem to work.
I have a date field stored in a character type field ( this field is a spare one in an ERP package )I am trying to validate and convert to a date format using the following;
[code="CASE WHEN isdate( arc.UserField1 )= 1 then CAST( arc.UserField1 as DateTime ) ELSE CAST( '01/01/1900' as Datetime ) END"] [/code]
The results are ;
Date Result 29/09/08 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000 09/06/15 2015-09-06 00:00:00.000 18/03/13 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000 09/10/14 2014-09-10 00:00:00.000
as you can see - the date 29/09/08 is a valid UK date format - however it fails the validation. 09/06/15 converts to 6th September 2015 ( mm/dd/yy ) format...What do I need to do to force this to identify as dd/mm/yy date format ?
