Data Alignment In Textbox

Feb 26, 2007

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.

Aug 9, 2007

i have a textbox which a user enters a numeric value

With this i can check in one of the tables and make the selection.

Computing And Assigning A Value To A Textbox From Other Data Regions

May 18, 2007

I am new to SSRS, so perhaps its a trivial question. I was wondering that since all controls have names in the report, is it possible to programatically access values of different textboxes, do some computation and then assign to another text box? I know how to do it using the Aggregate functions and operators, but am not sure if I can access values from textboxes within two different tables and assign the computed value to a third text box on the page (not belonging to any table or other control).



somethig like.... txtTotal.Value = FormatCurrency(txtSalesTotal.Value) - txtDiscount.Value));



Any ideas??

Format / Alignment

Feb 20, 2007

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.

SQL Server 2008 :: Index Alignment In Partitioning?

Apr 1, 2015

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')
GO

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?

Reporting Services Parameters - Alignment. Here's The Problem :

Jan 31, 2007

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.

Reporting Services :: Change Visibility Of Textbox (Tablix) Based On Data From Two Datasets?

Jun 11, 2010

I have two charts which are based on their own separate datasets.  One chart shows data aggregated by MONTH, the other chart shows data aggregated by WEEK.  I have put both of these charts inside a rectangle and set their visibility based on whether or not there is data returned by their respective datasets.  This part is working just fine.

However, I have added a tablix to the report, deleted all columns and rows leaving only one remaining row/column so it looks like a textbox.  This tablix is sitting on top of the two charts.  The problem i'm having is that when both charts return no data and they do not show up in the report, the tablix still remains visible. I need to set the visibility but based on a condition between the two different datasets behind each chart.

Here's what I need:  If ONE of the charts returns data, then I need the tablix to be visible.  If neither chart returns data, then I need the tablix to be invisible.  I'm trying to write an IIF statement comparing the two datasets but I get inscope errors.  Isn't it possible to compare values which are contained in two separate datasets in SSRS?

Seems like something like the following logic should work:

IIF(CountRows("Monthly_DataSet") > 0 OR CountRows("Weekly_DataSet") > 0 , FALSE, TRUE)

Obviously the above expression will return syntax errors, but you'll get the point as to how i'm thinking. How can I set the visibility of the tablix based on these two charts?

Absolutely Page-bottom Alignment On Report Footer: Impossible?

Mar 21, 2007

Relative newb to SSRS here, but the answer to this question evades me; answers and insight are appreciated.

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.
