I know the title is not really that specific but I have a question about the use of templates.
When you copy a package (template) you allways have to generate a new id for it to be unique. But when you copy the package the tasks (etc.) will not get an new id and you can't even change it because it is readonly. So two different packages can have tasks which has the exact same id!!
When you debug in VS if you run two packages in parrallel the one that first exits will become green and VS will automatically make all tasks that has this exact id green - making it seem like the task in another package has finished while it may not have started yet at all.
So the question is: beside the strange behavour with the color can this identical id problem be a real problem causing other strange behavours that is more serious than just a change in color?
I like RS for SQL server. However, I am surprised (and frustrated) how limited the chart capabilities are; perhaps we have been spoiled by Excel...
Anyway, is there any way to change the color of the chart bars programatically. I can select different schemas (excel, pastel, grayscale, etc) but I need to go a little bit further, is that much to ask?
Oh, by the way, we can't mix chart styles, can't we? Need to show a chart and a line in the same report...
I appreciate your help on this, hopefully any answers to my questions might also help with other RS users with the same needs,
Hopefully someone can clarify for me. I'd like to use custom colors for a chart that I have created. I've seen some code examples but I'm not really sure what to do with them. I've been using reporting services for like 2 days and I don't know xml or vb script, so I apologize for the probably stupid question. Thank you in advance.
As the thread title state, I was wondering if it is possible to alternate the list table row colors between 2 colors. Just wanted to make it more presentable when viewing.
I am using RGB HEX #s in my report for some colors. It shows up fine when rendering to a browser, however when exporting to Excel my custom colors don't come over. I've tried creating a report.xlt file with my custom colors in it, but when I export to Excel it uses the standard Excel palette instead of the custom palette in my report.xlt.
Any ideas on how to retain my custom colors when exporting to Excel?
I have been asked to derive a bar charts in SSRS. Each bar would represents a different category and each bar should come with different colors. No. of categories might vary every time, it is not fixed. How to achieve this dynamically?
I need some help regarding Custom Colors implementation for Charts in the Reporting Services.
What we are trying to do is to make every color for every Series(see example below) to be a customized Corporate color.
For example each of the series on the Chart should be in specific Custom Color:
Series 1 - "LightBlue" Series 2 - "LightYellow"
Series 3 - "DarkBrown"
All I found from MSDN is how to do it in the Chart Properties in a Code section (right click on the report outside the chart -> Properties -> Code tab -> paste the Custom Code ).
And then to use it in the Chart color definition as:
Code Snippet=Code.GetColor( Series# )
But we are trying to do it in a separate C# class that would be updated only in one place, instead of changing 30 reports each time something is changed. So that it could be generic.
The C# class:
Code Snippet
namespace CustomColorPalette
{
public class CustomPalette
{
public CustomPalette()
{
}
public static string GetColor(string GroupingValue)
Error 303 [rsCompilerErrorInCode] There is an error on line 2 of custom code: [BC30451] Name 'CustomColorPalette' is not declared. c:developmentvoyagerreportsvoyager convert reports.rootvoyager convert reportsReport_007D.rdl 0 0
2.
Second way I tried:
Then I put a code into a Custom Code section of a report:
And after compilation I am getting an error like this:
Error 302 [rsCompilerErrorInExpression] The BackgroundColor expression for the chart €˜chart2€™ contains an error: [BC30456] 'X' is not a member of 'ReportExprHostImpl.CustomCodeProxy'. c:developmentvoyagerreportsvoyager convert reports.rootvoyager convert reportsReport_007D.rdl 0 0
Is there any workaround? Or all I can do is to make the Custom Colors manually in each report, and if something need to be changed - I will need to change it in each report separately
I have a chart that presently has two groupings on the x-axis: Year & Qtr. I'd like the Year labels to be one color, and the Qtr labels to be a different color. (All year labels should be Black, all Qtr labels should be Blue). I can see that an expression can be written to handle this dynamically, but I'm banging my head trying to figure it out...
I have a Matrix with dynamic columns. I am grouping Matrix on one column group. I am trying to have a different color for every group. I hvae so far, three groups. How can I do that? A note, there is no data for every column group in every row.
I have created a linked report in which I have two screen: First Screen: Clicking on the bar of particular country the details of that particular country should be visible (the second screen)
Second Screen: When I clicked on a bar. All the count values are very well correct. In first chart Count of values under one bar "Pending decision"(yellow) was 337 for a country and in second screen its 337 again(shown in light green bar). <!--[if !vml]--><!--[endif]--> Problem: My problem is to make it sure that the colors that the first screen is having for particular status (as shown in the legend) should remain same in second screen also. For example for a status say "pending decision" the chart is using yellow color, so in screen two as well it must be shown with yellow color and not with lany other color. Can anyone help me in this context. Is there any way to customize colors used by bar chart. Please note that the question is not about using appropriate color scheme(palette) the question is how to "capture/ Re-use/ customize/ pass as a parameter" the colors used by a bar chart in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.
I have a column bar chart which displays values for each month. As per the requirement, January column must be blue, February must be orange, March must be green, April must be pink. These 4 colors would repeat for the remaining months.
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 have a report in which I have assigned custom colors with a function to one of my stacked column charts. When I run it in the report builder, the colors are correctly placed, but as soon as I upload the report to the server and view the report from there, the colors get swapped. I have these custom colors applied to other stacked column charts in the report and they work perfectly fine. The only difference between this chart and my other charts is that it contains two category groups.
EDIT: Alright, I have gotten it to display the correct colors by using a function with the colors I wanted in reverse. I have two values, "Upcoming" which is displayed in red, and "Outstanding" which is displayed in blue. If the chart has only upcoming values, it will display in blue rather than red, whereas if I have upcoming and outstanding values, they will display in their correct colors. why this is occurring?
I am facing some issue in rendering my SSRS report(2012 version) to excel sheet with color codes. i am using conditional formatting to display the colors. So what is happening is ,take the below expression as an example, for the id  = 0, we are not getting white back ground, we are getting some other colors. But the same thing is working fine in SSRS 2008R2.Â
We mark cells in  a report using color names like red, pink, and transparent in the fill expression. In the browser it works correctly. When exported to Excel the colors go to the wrong cells. This worked correctly in SSRS 2008.Â

I have 3 SSRS 2014 (Dev, UAT and Prod). I would like to change background colors of each environment and customize the title 'SQL Server Reporting Services' to ' SSRS Development'.
I prefer to implement both, a background color change and a title change. The reason for this is to clarify to end users which environment they are working with.
Where can I make those minimal changes in SSRS 2014.

The following query returns a value of 0 for the unit percent when I do a count/subquery count. Is there a way to get the percent count using a subquery? Another section of the query using the sum() works.
Here is a test code snippet:
--Test Count/Count subquery
declare @Date datetime
set @date = '8/15/2007'
select -- count returns unit data Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) as PTCnt, -- count returns total for all units
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))
from tblVGD1_Master m1
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v1 on m1.SlotNum_ID = v1.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m1.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m1.Denom_ID <> 9
and v1.Act = 1 and m1.Active = 1 and v1.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v1.MnyPlyd = v1.MnyWon and v1.ActWin = 0)
and v1.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date) as TotalCnt, -- attempting to calculate the percent by PTCnt/TotalCnt returns 0 (Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) /
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))

I would like to AUTOMATICALLY count the event for the month BEFORE today
and
count the events remaining in the month (including those for today).
I can count the events remaining in the month manually with this query (today being March 20):
SELECT Count(EventID) AS [Left for Month], FROM RECalendar WHERE (EventTimeBegin >= DATEADD(DAY, 1, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101))) AND EventTimeBegin < DATEADD(DAY, 12, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101))))
Could anyone provide me with the correct syntax to count the events for the current month before today
and
to count the events remaining in the month, including today.
I have an sql command for when you add a new name to the database it counts to see how many of the name entered to the textbox exist in the database. If the count is 0 then it will add the name to the table. Else it displays an error message. This works fine for inserting a new name but on my update page where you may update the name I have the same code which on button click counts to see how many exist. But if you leave the textbox the same value and click the button the count obviously results in 1 and brings up an error message. Is there a way I can do a count but not including the name that is currently the value of the textbox?protected void UpdateSharedArea(object sender, EventArgs e) { SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(docShare_ConString);
//Count the amount of area names that are the same as typed by user SqlCommand existCheck = new SqlCommand("SELECT COUNT(doc_area_name) FROM document_area WHERE doc_area_name = @doc_area_name", connection); SqlParameter areaname = new SqlParameter("@doc_area_name", SqlDbType.VarChar); areaname.Value = AreaText.Text; existCheck.Parameters.Add(areaname);
connection.Open(); int count = (int)existCheck.ExecuteScalar(); connection.Close();
//If the area name does not exist within the table if (count == 0) { //Update name Cheers, Mark
