How would one go about setting the height of a custom report item programmatically?
I have a custom report item that renders back an image of indeterminate height. I cannot simply set RenderItem.Sizing = Image.Sizings.AutoSize; As the image is being rendered back at 300 dpi and will require being set to FitProportional. Therefore I need to set the height to a scale height. I've tried setting CRI.Height to a ReportSize value, but it tells me that I cannot because of the current state of the item.
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.
I'm developing a Custom Report Item that generates a BarCode.
I developed all control functionality but now the problem resides on the Deploy Process.
For the fisrt time I followed 2 steps to deploy component on Visual Studio:
1) Copy the dll on " Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies " 2) Configure the control in "Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssembliesRSReportDesigner.config"
On the other Hand I configured SQL Server Reporting services doing that:
3) Copy the dll on " Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServerin " 4) Configure the control in "Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServer sreportserver.config"
We are developing a custom report item but we cannot find a way to get the report parameters. In Vb examples there is mentioning of globals but these do not seem to be present in the c# enviroment.
Could anyone give a solution on how to get to the report parameter collection in run-time.
I'm looking at creating a custom report item which will allow me to input data into a textbox on the rendered report and dynamically update a textbox or another custom report item once I leave focus of that initial textbox. Is there a way to accomplish this? I have read that you can only create CRIs which use "graphic elements and images". Is that a true statement?
The reason why I don't want to have the initial value as a parameter is becuase the client doesn't want to have to click "View Report" everytime they want to see an updated value.
I am having a problem with deploying a CRI. On my local machine the CRI works fine, only at the development machine it doens't works. I did the following steps:
copy the .dll to the C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies
copy the .dll to the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4Reporting ServicesReportServerin

I have developed a renderer that renders the xml to paint a rectangle with textboxes in all the right places based on the data retrieved off the database. When i render the a complete report to the reportviewer i have no problem.
I need however to render the rectangle into a custom report item for reusability and different scenarios. This just seem to be impossible since it seems like I cant use anything other than an imagemap to render custom report items. Is this true?
To make sure you understand....in other words....
Is there a way to develop a Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportRendering.IRenderingExtension that renders the required xml like rectangles/textboxes etc. and then migrate this to a custom toolbox item. It just seems like this should be a very easy thing to do and something regularly needed. For example when you want to use textboxes in certain positions within a rectangle to draw a organisational chart.
I read that this sample is included, however when I install the samples the other three are in the "Extension Samples" directory but the "Custom Report Item Sample" is missing. Can anybody please tell me where I can find it?
I'm developing a Custom Report Item and would like to fill my properties dialog in design mode with real data. I have the name of the data source and the command text for the corresponding report dataset, read from the report design.
Is it possible to create an ado.net dataset so that I can display and use real data in my properties dialog box? First problem I have is to get the connection string from the data source string. I found no docs for that, especially the Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions.ReportDataSource class is not documented. Am I on the right way with that?
Hi All, I want to get the Font,Background colors of the report item(Textbox) changed in Runtime,According to the value in the Textbox. The idea is to get this done by using the Same Custom code for getting both the Foreground,Background colors, I thought to implement this with flag, But I dont know how to do this..
Reporting experts ..please help me with this issue.Thanks in Advance
I've been using Konesan's FileWatcher control-flow item successfully in design-mode on my PC, which runs the package on a remote server.
I have installed the Konesan's FileWatcher on the remote SQLServer machine. I then imported the package to the server (Files System folder). I then select the package, right-click 'Run Package', then Execute, and receive the error:
"Error: The task 'File Watcher Task' cannot run on this edition of Integration Services. It requires a higher level edition"
..in the 'Package Execution Progeress' dialog. All other validation seem to be ok.
(Note, I'm executing the above steps using SQLServer Mgt Studio from my PC ; I'm not doing it from the SQLServer machine itself...not sure if this matters or not.)
The SSIS version installed on the server is 9.0.3054. It shouldn't be an "SSIS version issue", as it is the same SQLServer that I used (successfully) from my PC in design mode...
I am using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. Right now, I have a textbox with 0 or 1 values in my report and I want to show a checkbox: checked for value 1 and uncheck for 0. Is there anyway to add a checkbox in the report?
I have a report with details grouping on table. What i need to do is put row number only on Parent row and skip the child row. When i use RowNumber("GroupName") of course it gives me a current RowNumber. Is there a way to count only parents?
Hi everyone, I have created a matrix report which takes 3 parameters being store, year and quarter which then displays budget information in a matrix. This all works fine but I would also like to have a bar chart below the matrix to visually show the results.
However when I add the bar chart and add the relevent dataset details etc the chart does not appear when I preview the report. I wondered if the chart wasn't showing because the parameter values are not being passed to the chart.
Has anybody any idea of adding charts to reports in this way or knows of any instructions to do so.
I am trying to use a very easy and simple feature of a reportmodel, model item security.
In my example i have two users; HGHJohn and HGHJKooi
I want to test if I am able to restrict access in the model to a whole entity. HGHJKooi shouldn't be able to see the entity 'Customers'.
These are the steps I executed:
1. In Sqlserver management studio I opened the properties of my model and navigated to the tabpage 'model item security'.
2. I activated the option 'secure individual model items...'
3. In the root of the model I declared two users(groups) as specified above
4. Automatically all nodes inherit these settings from the root.
5. For the entity 'Relations' I change the default, by selecting 'use these roles for each group or user account'
6. I removed HGHJKooi from this list, leaving only 'HGHJohn as model item browser
What I expected at this moment is that when I login the system as HGHJKooi, then I won't see this entity, but I still can! Does anybody know a solution to this problem?
I have 2 reports where 1 is a subreport and the other one is a main report. Can i change or refer to a control(item) in the main report depending on the value of an item in the subreport, when the subreport is being run?
I am new to report builder. I have created a report with a calculated cell that returns a true or false value based on a true or false value from another column (from a dataset field). I want to create a filter for the calculated field (which is a ReportItem), that will only show cells that are True.
I have tried several ways to add this filter, but each time, I get an error message saying that filter or sorting cannot be created for ReportItems.
I'm trying to deploy Reporting Services on an Internet-facing web server using a custom security extension (forms authentication). We will be putting Report Manager on the Web Server outside of the firewall, and Report Server on another machine inside the firewall. When testing the solution in a development environment with Report Manager and Report Server on the same box, the solution works fine.
When testing it using the Internet-facing environment described above, it almost works but there seems to be an issue with the authentication cookie that is generated. Here's what happens:
1. User enters credentials on UILogon.aspx and submits form. 2. In the code-behind, LogonUser() is called through a web service proxy and the authentication cookie is returned successfully. The code used here to set the cookie is the same code used in the Forms Authentication sample that ships with RS2005. 3. The user is redirected to Folder.aspx, and the request hangs for a while, and eventually kicks you back out to UILogon.aspx, as if it lost the authentication cookie. When doing a trace on the HTTP header, the cookie is still there.
Is there anything special I need to do to make the Report Server "see" the cookie when I have Report Manager and Report Server on different machines?
I created a custom assembly using C# to transform some binary data into text, and in this assembly I used one win32 dll developed by our customer to help me to do the tranformation. The code I used to call the win32 dll is like below: [DllImport("tdasuie.dll", EntryPoint = "AlrtLogConditionToText", ExactSpelling = false, CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)] private static extern UInt32 AlrtLogConditionToText(Byte[] pbCondition, StringBuilder pszText, UInt32 dwSize);
I defined a C# method to call the above win32 method and return a string. Then in the report, I called this C# method to get the correct string.
In the report designer, the C# method in the custom assembly can return the correct string in the preview window. But after I deployed the report into the report server, the textbox will only display "#error" in the report manager web page.
I have a BOM table with all finished item receipes and semi items recipes. create a query where semi item materials are also listed in finished item recipe.
While building Report Model Solution in Business Intelligent Studio i am getting following errror- More than one item in the Entity 'table' has the name 'columns'. Item names must be unique among immediate siblings.
Please advice how to resolve this one. Thanks Ashwin.
I've never attempted to use the "Repeat Report Item with Data Region on Every Page " feature before. I'm trying to use it on text boxes with the data region being a matrix. I have a report that is two pages, and the text boxes are only appearing on the first page. Also, the matrix is appearing with zero space between it and the header. Any ideas?
Here's my problem. I have 2 tasks defined in my Control Flow tab:
EXECUTE SQL--------->EXECUTE DTS 2000 PACKAGE
When I attempt to run it, by right-clicking the EXECUTE SQL task, and selecting "Execute Task", it only runs the EXECUTE SQL part (successfully), and does not "kick off" the EXECUTE DTS 2000 PACKAGE, after it is done running (even though it completes successfully, as shown by the green box).
Yes, they are connected by a dark green arrow, as indicated in my diagram above.
Why is this?? Am I missing something here? Need help.

I have a old report that was pointing to a different database, and i changed the connection string for that report and changed the field names (As per my new stored Procedure). In some places I keep getting this run time error, i have tried looking for all the hidden references to this field and i cannot find any parameter that the old database had. The error messages that i get are as follows:
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblContactInfo€™ refers to the field €˜PL_Admin_ShowInKit€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblContactInfo€™ refers to the field €˜PL_FA_ShowInKit€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
[rsFieldReference] The Hidden expression for the table €˜tblWithdrawals€™ refers to the field €˜PW_Comment€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
Can Someone please help me out as to how should i get rid of these error messages, they are kinda driving me nuts.
Is there any way to get more information for when IAuthorizationExtension::CheckAccess fails to grant access to a report item for the current user? Specifically, it would be useful to know:
1. URL of attempted report 2. IP address of user agent 3. Identity of current user 4. Date/Time of the failed attempt
I am using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services and have successfully created and deployed a Custom Report Item to use instead of the standard Chart Control.
This new Item works fine in both Report Designer (Visual Studio) and when generating Reports on the Report Server
However, I have a requirement that the same chart style must be available in Report Builder. Unfortunately, when using Report Builder to create a new report I can only select Tabular, Matrix or Chart style, and the chart option uses the standard style which is not suitable.
I cannot see any obvious way of including a Custom Report Item within Report Builder, so I have 2 questions :
Can I use a Custom Report Item in Report Builder? None of the samples or tutorials that I have found give any indication of whether this is possible.
I m trying to deploy reports using rs.exe & rss script. I would like to provide custom Report Name for each report I am deploying (not same as report rdl filename) for more meaningful listing under Report Manager. Is there a way to implement the same?
I have tried to search on the topic, but there's a variety of answers that has left me a bit confused, so let me try asking a-new...
I have RS 2005 installed (Report Server on one server with IIS and everything else, Integrated Security set; the Report Catalog on a separate server with SQL Server 2005, etc.). So far so good.
I can easily access a few of my test reports using URL Access, and I can also access Report Mgr just fine; all that to indicate I'm pretty sure I have RS installed and setup and working correctly.
Now I have a custom ASP.NET 2.0 based web app that, of course, uses Forms based authentication, not Windows. I can create a hyperlink on one my web pages that uses URL Access to get to some of my test reports. But, of course, it's prompts me for (and seems to remember) domain credentials.
That's the piece I want to avoid. I have created a specific Windows domain account that would be used for this purpose. Now, I just need to figure out code to put in my ASP.NET page to pass that along. I am not using the ReportViewer control.
So, I am trying to find a decent reference/example code on how to set the credentials. I have seen much example code that is like:
//assumes a web reference has been setup... ReportingService rs = new ReportingService();
But I don't think I want "DefaultCredentials"... I want to use my custom domain account. Any help?
My other wild idea was creating this custom page in a directory where I could drop in a custom web.config that set the <authentication> element to "Windows" then set the <identity> element to my custom account... any thoughts on that would be appreciated.
