I have two groups. I want to do this:
Group 1
Group2
Group2 Summary info
Group2 Details
Group2 Details
Group2 Details
Group2 Details
I don't know how to get the table details row to only show my group 2 details.
Thanks
I have created a linked server using my local SQL2005. The linked server can be seen as a linked server, but the database can not been expanded to see the tables, stored procedures, views, and other details regarding the linked server. The only method that I have found that will allow me to see all the details is to use XP's Remote Desktop Connection to access the database. Has anyone else experienced this problem, if so, how did you resolve it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
I am developing a report where i have one group e.g. Dealer Name and then details of that dealer.
Dealer details can have around 10 columns and where dealer name is of around 80 chars length. I need to use 10.7in*7.1in page size.
So how i can manage the formatting for dealer group, dealer details in one page.
Thanks.
Hi,
I want to display details ection for each group in a single table using one dataset.
For ex:
Group 1 Row --> Name Age
Details 1 Row--> XXX 30
Details 2 Row--> YYY 20
Group 2 Row --> City Country
Details 1 Row--> CCC ZZZZ
Details 2 Row--> BBB AAAA
Hi,
I started working with SRS from the past one month. I am breaking my head to do this. My report has a single stored procedure. I made it to work all values of a parameter like
exec sp_employee 'All' (Returns data for all employees)
exec sp_employee '1111' (Returns data for an employee with id 1111)
exec sp_employee '1111,2222' (Returns data for an employee with id 1111 as well as 2222)
This part works perfectly. I could successfully pass the values as mentioned above using a code block.
Now my challenge is how to layout the data on the report.
I need to show the report as follows:
Employeeid Employee Name Address etc.......
Skills:
Skill# Skill Name
1 11111
2 22222
3 33333
4 44444
Contacts:
Contact Type Contact#
Main 111-1111
Emergency 222-1111
Eductation:
Name University
Degree UofU
Masters UofU
I tried using group by employeeid. But i can only show one group of data either Skills/Contacts/Education.
I do not know if I use sub-report, how to pass the parameter from the main, when I pick multiple values for Employeeid.
Any idea how to do this? I appreciate your help,
Thank you,
I have a report that is grouped based on a field. There is no way to pre-determine the number of detail lines each group will have. Is there a way to set the print condition such that if any group details do not fit onto one page then the whole group should be printed on the next page. Something like this:
Group1
DetailLine1 -------------
DetailLine2-------------
DetailLine3------------
-
-
DetailLinen-------------
Group2
DetailLine1 -------------
DetailLine2-------------
DetailLine3------------
-
-
DetailLinen-------------
Group3
DetailLine1 -------------
DetailLine2-------------
DetailLine3------------
-
-
DetailLinen-------------
If ALL Group2 details do not fit onto the same page print it on a new page. (I don't want each group on a separate page, I just want the group detail to start on a new page IF THEY DO NOT ALL fit on one page)
I know only enough SQL to be dangerous, but I'm stumped by this general task.
I need to know the method for selecting info from several fields of the records that satisfy a group function criteria on one of the fields. Example: Table contains Employees, products, amounts. If I group on Employee, and product, I can find the total amount of each product's sales for that employee.
create view prod_sales_by_emplyoee
select
employee
product
SUM(amount) as empl_prod_total
from sales
group by employee, product
But if I want to know which product made each employee the most money, I don't know how to do that, because the MAX function works on each field individually, not by row. From the above view, (or a table created from it) I want to know how to identify, for each employee, the product they made the most money selling, and what proportion of their total sales that product accounted for. Then, I'd like to use those results to eliminate the top tier, and find their second place product, etc.
I can do this in Access by sorting the table produced from the above view by empl_prod_total in decending order, joining that to a view that groups by employee only and provides a total, then using a grouped query on the joined data, I can use the "FIRST" function to find the values in each field of the record with the highest sales for that employee. However SQL doesn't have the FIRST function in its aggregate functions.
I suspect there's a standard way SQL does this, but it wasn't in my class. HELP!
I have a table where I need to display groupings of information. If there isn't any data for a given group, I still need to include that group and say "no applicable data" or somesuch underneath it. Any way of doing this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an SSRS 2012 table report with groups; each group is broken ie. one group for one page, and there are multiple groups in multiple pages.
'GroupName' column has multiple values - X,Y,Z,......
I need to group 'GroupName' with X,Y,Z,..... ie value X in page 1,value Y in page 2, value Z in page 3...
Now, I need to display another column (ABC) in this table report (outside the group column 'GroupName'); this outside column itself is another column header (not a group header) in the table (report) and it derives its name partly from the 'GroupName' values:
Example:
Value X for GroupName in page 1 will mean, in page 1, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-X Value Y for GroupName in page 2 will mean, in page 2, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-Y Value Z for GroupName in page 3 will mean, in page 3, column Name of
ABC column must be ABC-Z
ie the column name of ABC (Clm ABC) must be dynamic as per the GroupName values (X,Y,Z....)
Page1:
GroupName Clm ABC-X
X
Page2:
GroupName Clm ABC-Y
Y
Page3:
GroupName Clm ABC-Z
Z
I have been able to use First(ReportItems!GroupName.Value) in the Page Header to get GroupNames displayed in each page; I get X in page 1, Y in page 2, Z in page 3.....
However, when I use ReportItems (that refers to a group name) in the Report Body outside the group,
I get the following error:
Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope
I need to get the X, Y, Z ... in each page for the column ABC.
I have been able to use this - First(Fields!GroupName.Value); however, I get ABC-X, ABC-X, ABC-X in each of the pages for the ABC column, instead of ABC-X in page 1, ABC-Y in page 2, ABC-Z in page 3, ...
I used to do this with classic asp but I'm not sure how to do it with .net.Basically I would take a table of Categories, Then I would loop through those. Within each loop I would call another stored procedure to get each item in that Category. I'll try to explain, Lets say category 2 has a player Reggie Bush and a player Drew Brees, and category 5 has Michael Vick, but the other categories have no items.Just for an example.. Category Table: ID Category1 Saints2 Falcons3 Bucaneers4 Chargers5 FalconsPlayer Table:ID CategoryID Player News Player Last Updated1 1 Reggie Bush Poetry in motion 9/21/20062 1 Drew Brees What shoulder injury? 9/18/20063 5 Michael Vick Break a leg, seriously. 9/20/2006 Basically I would need to display on a page:SaintsReggie BushPoetry in MotionFalconsMichael VickBreak a leg, seriously.So that the Drew Brees update doesnt display, only the Reggie Bush one, which is the latest.I have my stored procedures put together to do this. I just don't know how to loop through and display it on a page. Right now I have two datareaders in the code behind but ideally something like this, I would think the code would go on the page itself, around the html.

I've posted a feedback with Microsoft to see if we can get them to fix the issue described below, but so far no one from Microsoft has commented to let us know what they're doing about this problem! I'm posting this here to see if maybe we can get more people to rate this feedback or chime in on what a pain it is! Please feel free to add your own comments or how you had to work around this issue and whether or not you think this is something Microsoft should be addressing NOW.

Provide Individual Page Numbering per Group and Total Pages per Group
Currently in a Reporting Services report, you can't readily reset the page number for each group in a table, nor can you display the total number of pages per group. For example, if I'm printing invoices and each invoice is a separate group, I'd like to be able to print "Page 1 of 5" , "Page 2 of 5" etc. for the first invoice, then "Page 1 of 3" when the next invoice begins, and so on. This was easy in Crystal Reports. I realize that Crystal Reports has a two-pass process that enables that kind of pagination. However, this is REALLY important functionality that's just missing from Reporting Services and I'm hoping you'll provide it REALLY SOON! Yeah, I know there are work-arounds if you can know exactly how many rows of information there are on each page. But gosh! That's not practical, especially if you have second level groups inside the main group or text blocks in rows that can 'grow' to more than one line. I've read a couple of work-arounds, but none of them works correctly and consistently when more than one user is running the same report or when you print the report while you're looking at it on the screen. I still may need access to the overall report page number and the overall total number of pages, so don't get rid of that. It's just that if you're doing this already for the entire report, I don't see why you can't do it per group! Lots of people have been asking for this for years, and I don't understand why it hasn't been implemented.
I've read a few articles on this topic, but no one has come up with a decent work around. My theory is that Microsoft should be addressing this immediately. This is major functionality that's just plain missing from SSRS and should have been there from the start. If anyone from Microsoft can let us know what's going on with this issue or if anyone would like for me to clarify this further, feel free to let me know.
Thanks!

I have an SSRS report with groups that when exported to excel contains drill-in's (plus marks on left side). The issue I have is that for all the groups in the drill-in, those cells become merged. I want to keep the group drill-in but have the cells UNMERGED. I have heard this can be done with the RDL XML but I don't know what to modify to accomplish this.

I have a user in SQL Server with a NT login of Mike
I changed his NT account to Mikel in User Manager
Now when I try to add Mikel, Im getting error 15401.
Do I need to delete NT login in SQL Server 'Mike' account first ?..before adding 'Mikel' ?
Can I go into the Master database and just change Mike login to Mikel ?
Thank you
I'm having a fight with Reporting Services at the minute when trying to compute an average at the row group level for a value summed in a column group.I have the following column groups:
Year
Month
Date
And the following row groups:
Region
Product
SubType (hidden, data at the date level is summed to Product)
At the moment I'm computing the average for SubType for each Date at the Product level (giving a decimal value), so for each day I end up with a nice average, that works. However I am unable to average that average over the whole Year for a Product. The issue being that I'm trying to combine Row Groups (Product) and Column Groups (Date/Year)
select top 15 count(*) as cnt, state from table
group by state
order by cnt desc
[code[...
Can the above three queries be combined into one and still be fast, if so how?What i am trying to go is an item count, by group, similar to ones Inbox in Outlook.
I have a need to show a row inside a table group to simulate a header row for the data rows inside the group. The table will not have a real header or footer. Thanks for the help.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have one domoain in the forest. The domain level is set to Windows 2000 native mode and forest level is set to mixed mode. My SQL server 2005 server joined to this domain. I added a brand new domain local group and add a normal user account to this domain local group. I login to the SQL server 2005 server and make a query "SELECT * FROM sys.login_token". I cannot see my domain local group in sys.login_token. However, if I add my account to a global group, I can see it there.
Then, I setup another forest. This time, I have domain level set to Windows 2003 mode and forest level is set to Windows 2003 native mode. I do the same testing. This time, I can see my domain local group in sys.login_token.
Why does SQL server 2005 has this limitation? Is it a bug?

Hi,
I used my DB and some tables for replication earlier, now i removed my all replication subscription and publication and my DB is out of replication.
Now i am altering my table for PK then its giving err as follows:
Cannot alter the table 'mstparty' because it is being published for replication.
From where i can find details, i mean in which sys table all replication obj are stored.
There is no Replication now on DB then why still table 'mstparty' has a replication err when i alter table.
Please advice as i am not able to alter my table or tables which earlier i used in replication and now i removed replication.
I have a database which has contact column eg. Mr Peter Smith
I am writing a new database which is to have three seperate columns.. saluation, first name and surname. What would be the best way to split the column up?? I was thinking on concentrating on the spaces??
Note: some conacts may not have saluation inc in the contact column, and in this case the saluation column should be blank...
Thanks

Where is, (or even does it exists) the best place to look for some details on when package execution fails if running as a scheduled job. Obviously when you run from the command line or in VS, there is plenty of output detail on progress and on the source of errors, but when you run it as a scheduled job, it just says step 1 failed in the sql server log, and package foo failed in the NT application log . Is there anywhere to find this info or do we need to build error traps into the package to write stuff out somewhere?

I'm new to MSSQL 2005 and want to get a summary of a log table. I want to count all the rows for each date based on a DATETIME field called 'post_date' that holds the date and time of each record's creation.

Code:
SELECT
DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11)) AS post_date, COUNT(DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11))) AS total_posts
FROM log_directory_contacts
GROUP BY post_date
The results show each date but the count column ('total_posts') returns '1' for every row even when I know their are more than 1 record on that date.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

First, soapbox questions for someone who might have more direct pull with Microsoft (or at least knowledge of how I should work with what they've given us), then a more specific question:
Scenario: You install SQL Server Express (or any other version, it doesn't matter) and the feedback with all the little green checkmarks tells you it has installed successfully. "Oh goody," say people (like me) who are not super experienced with SQL Server, "it installed successfully; now I can jump in and start using it!" But it aint so--there are so many other hoops to jump through before it really becomes operational.
After successful installation, why can't some link become visible indicating what you have to do after that? I mean, it's fine to wade through all the questions in this forum and get answers from all you nice and informed guys, AFTER the problems start coming; but I would rather not have to associate with you, to be honest, in terms of time spent that could be going into my projects.
Why isn't there a comprehensive guide right off the bat? That is, something referenced immediately that tells you such things as: how to register a database with emphasis on the fact that just creating a database won't do the trick for your application; how to set permissions and rights; that (what was I reading in the advice of one post?) you have to register both the database and the user, blah blah; all about instances, the web.config file, etc. etc. I mean, doesn't it seem logical that by virtue of a person installing the database, come on, that this is a pretty good indication that he/she in all likelihood is new at it? As it is now, all they tell you on the SSE site is that you have to have the .NET Framework installed; and the green checkmarks indicating that you've installed it correctly (sorry for mentioning that twice).
"OK, self," I say, "I have the Framework installed and SSE installed correctly, so let's get to work." Then the trouble begins. Unless Microsoft's purpose is to keep you tech guys and book writers in business, I don't understand why they don't give more up-front guidance. Any thoughts on why they work it this way? Bueller, Bueller? Anyone, anyone?
Now, to the question that's pressing me at the moment: I've installed SSE and I'm going through a tutorial ("How Do I: Create Data-Driven Web Sites?" on http://www.asp.net/getstarted/default.aspx?tabid=61). Yeah, the guy makes it look really easy. He creates a database then shuts down the connection. I try to do the same things and I'm informed that I don't even have a valid connection! How SQL-Server-Express fun and easy is that? It's a real AdventureWorks, if you ask me.
OK, that's my rant; and since MS didn't think in advance and implement my idea of a link to jump off from the installation menu, I have to face the reality of learning this by putting all the pieces together myself. So, my question is, before I try to go through the video and get more frustrated, WHERE DO I GO FOR THE MOST BASIC OF ALL THE STEPS I NEED TO DO, ONE BY ONE? This is like the second "beginner" video I've tried to go through but even these don't start at the very beginning with information on how to register a new database, making the user a part of aspnetWHATEVER, what permissions to dole out, etc.
Guidance is solicited and will be most appreciated. Thanks, Bryan
