Hi,
I am trying to create a report that should have a dynamic toggle visible, so that when the parent is of a certain type the toggle button (+, -) would not appear and in the other case it will.
Is this possible? I can use expressions in the visible field but not in the toggle one, so how can i manage it?
Best Regards,
Luis Simoes
Greetings,
I have five rows in a group header.
The top row is a true header row with details that will always be there and will always be visible.
The bottom four rows have their Visibility.Hidden property set to 'TRUE'.
All four of the bottom rows are assigned the same Visibility.ToggleItem.
Of the four bottom rows, any or all of them may not have data at any one time.
I want to find a way of allowing the rows to toggle from hidden to visible, but if one or all of the rows have a field item whose value is 0 then that row must remain invisible regardless of whether it is toggled.
I am still working on this puzzle, but if someone can provide me with an easy solution while I struggle, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
Hello,
I'm using SSRS 2005
I'm trying to write an expression for the "Hidden" property of a column in a table. The column is only populated with data if the group on my table is open. If the group is collapsed, then the column is empty. I'd like to make the column hidden if the group is collapsed. So I'm thinking it would be something like this:
=Iif(Table_1_Group.Hidden = "True", "True", "False")
But I can't find anyone who has written this anywhere.
I'm basically trying to make this report do the same thing a matrix does, but the matrix doesn't let me label the columns. I put textboxes above the matrix in line with the columns, but when I deploy the report to ReportManager, the textboxes get thrown all over the place and don't line up with the columns anymore.
So I guess if you can't answer the first question, an alternate question I have is how are you supposed to label the columns (row groups) in your matrix? They don't have headers, if I try to line textboxes up with them they get all messed up during deployment. They have that textbox up there in the top left corner that runs across the top of all of the row group columns, but if I put labels separated spaces in that textbox, the spaces get removed in rendering so the text is pushed all to the left and doesn't line up anymore.
Thanks,
Andy
Hi All,
I want to toggle visiblity of a parameter in sql server reporting services 2005. Please anyone tell me how to do it?
Please help me.
I want to toggle visiblity of a parameter at runtime.
Please tell me how to achieve this.
I'm attempting a create a matrix report that will have some rows with drilldown data and some without. On the rows without drilldown data, I wanted to hide the toggle image so that the user would know there was none available. So far, I've only been able to accomplish this by creating a duplicate row group and displaying no text for its cell. Then by changing its visibility, the toggle image would go away. However; while this makes the report look good, it breaks the export to excel because the other row column that contains the data must stay visible and the excel drill down functionality goes away.
Does anyone have a way of changing the visibility of the toggle image on a row by row basis within the Matrix control?
Any assistance would be appreciated!
Hi,
I need to toggle visibility of group of columns in reporting services report, just like we can do for rows. I know that individual fields can be hidden, but i need to hide/show complete column.
Thanks in anticipation.

I already have a row visibility on the details group which is toggled by the Sum(Case_Load) Text box.
What I would now like to do is some columns to the right where the field is part of the details group but the column is only visible when it is toggled by the Sum(Case_Load) Text box.
I keep getting the message that "Toggle items must be text boxes that share the same scope as the hidden item or are in a scope that contains the hidden item, and cannot be contained within the current report item unless current grouping scope has a Parent"
I want to toggle the visibility of a report item in my page footer based on whether or not a particular subreport has been rendered.
The report has 3 subreports. The subreport above the subreport in question can span several pages, so the subreport I want information on can render on page 1 (for a short report) or page 12 (for example) on a longer report.
Is there a way to determine within the main report when a particular subreport has been rendered and is currently visible?
Thanks in advance for all replies.

Hi,
I have a SSRS 2005 report with a table and several groupings. These groupings are made visible with toggle items.
I am trying to determine how to make the associated group headings (entered within table header) visible or not visible depending on the visibility state of the groupings.
Example: (initial state with group1 only visible)
Group1 Heading Count Sum
+Group1 999 999
(click + sign to make visible group 2)
Group1 Heading Group2 Heading Count Sum
-Group1 999 999
+Group2 888 888
etc.. for remaining groups
I've tried toggling the table header column the same way I did the group, but the group scope isn't available so I don't know what to use. (Manually putting it in causes report error.)
I don't know what visibility expression to use because I can't figure out what report item I can look at to determine the group's visibility "status" in order to make an expression.
Any ideas?
Note: I did see a similar post from sadsac, but the "answer" didn't address this.
Thanks
I have two DataSet and two tables in a report. Almost identical reports (top 5). Both DataSet have a Boolean indicator and I am to append an asterisk to a column in the detail rows if indicator is true. If an asterisk appears, I am to display the footer, that has a comment in it explaining the asterisk.
Public Class AsteriskFootNote
'
' To be used on the Visibility.Hidden attribute
'
Dim _FooterVisiblity As Boolean = True
Public ReadOnly Property FooterVisibility() As Boolean
Get
Return _FooterVisibility
End Get
End Property
'
Function AsteriskIndicator(ByVal strInd As String) As String
If (strInd.ToLower = "true") Then
_FooterVisibility = False
Return "*"
End If
Return ""
End Function
'
End Class
I have instantiated two classes Dollars and Hours. In the detail, call the
=Fields!Descr.Value & Code.Dollar.AsteriskIndicator( Fields!MultiInd.Value )
In the footer visibility, I assign hidden:
=Code.Dollar.FooterVisibility
But it does not work. The tables act as if they assign the Hidden value, then processes the detail rows.
I have seen other places where this question is asked, but I am still not seeing the answer clearly. If I have many groups that are collapsed and I want to expand them all at the same time, it there a way to accomplish this? Many talk about a param that can be passed in, but even if you have the parameter set, this is only for the initail state, is it not?

I have built a report using the Report Model but want to be able to collapse rows as is possible with the Toggle and Hidden attributes in normal reports. Can this be done?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to do the following (without using a parameter box to drive the results)
I would like to be able to toggle the results instead of using a parameter.
The default view for the table data is any row that meets a threshold criteria (similar to a KPI)
I would then like for all of the data to be exposed when toggled which eliminates using IIF (unless I am missing something).
I would think that if I could reference the toggleState of a textbox I could do this (similar to a yes/no Show All parameter), but I found little to nothing on how to do this within Reporting Services.
I guess I could also use two datasets to achieve this, but I would prefer a more elegant result.
Hello,
I am writing a report that has two levels of groupings like this and the visibity is controlled by Title and Staff Grouping (Partner, Employee) for drilling down.
WTD Hours
*Staff
*Manager
Joe 8
Max 8
Totals 16
*Senior Manager
Bob 7
Totals 7
Totals 23
*Partner
*Partner
Ed 20
Total 20
Totals 43
* = Toggle Item
Now, all this is fine except that when everything is collapsed, I want to show the totals on the group header and hide the group footer, like this:
WTD Hours
*Staff 23
*Partners 20
Totals 43
NOT like this:
WTD Hours
*Staff
Totals 23
*Partners
Totals 20
Totals 43
I have the functionality working with the toggle states and visibility, but whenever the group is collapsed, all the formatting is lost and it is just whitespace not matching the rest of the row.
Is there any way to control this by some expression in the value, etc?
Thanks in advance!
Hello:
Is it possible to standardize sql views or functions to filter data for the user, before they view the report? For example if I have a SQL view that filters for "green, cotton-made socks", can this somehow be an option among others before a user presses "view report?"
A response is greatly appreciated. If this is possible, how ?
Many thanks.
Hi, I have a matrix report containing a parameter.The count of groups may change based on the parameter's value.Also these groups are connected to each other with toggle property.
For example;
--If the parameter's value is "year", the report have three (year, month, day) groups.Day is connected to month and month is connected to year with toggle property.
--If the parameter's value is "month", the report have two (month, day) groups.Day is connected to month with toggle property.
--If the parameter's value is "day", the report have one (day) group.There will be no toggle property.
The question is:
I wrote expressions for this report and set the visibility properties of the groups, but when I select the "day" or "month" value for the parameter, no groups are shown.I think the reason is "being connected to each other with toggle property".
How can I solve this?
I have seen a few posts in several forums about SQL Reporting Services 2005 not supporting the expand all / toggle all / or show all feature that many of us require for our report clients. A simple method I use is to create a report parameter names ShowAll. In the properties I have the following: Name is ShowAll / Data type is String / Prompt is Show All? and the Allowo blank value box is checked. In available values I chose Non-queried and in Label and Value I placed Yes - Collapsed and No - Expanded then in Default values I put Collapsed
Then on the field's initial visibility property, I changed the default from collapsed to expression and added the following:
=iif(Parameters!ShowAll.Value = "Collapsed", True, False)
I have a report with 30 to 100 line. I also have groups collapsed. When I expand a group, I get a postback and a 'toggle event', which causes the report to jump to the top. I would like to stay where I expanded the group. Any suggestion?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure if this can be done. There are some threads that say yes and some that say no.
If my report's detail section is hidden unless toggled by group2 is there a way to retain the collapsed entries as collapsed when the report is exp[orted to excel?
Right now when I export to excel the report is all expanded. An export to pdf looks fine but I need to in excel.
I tried this and I must have done something wrong cause it did not work.

My orginal report rows are:
Table header
Group1
group2
Details
In details I have the visibilty as hidden, toggle item as group2_item.
I did try creating group3 and set it as the the above thread said.

Hi!
On a Reporting Services 2005 report, I have a table with a single group row and a single detail row (and about 5 columns). The details are set up to toggle visibility based on a textbox in the group header called "txt_Order_Number". The order line item details are set with their initial visibility set as hidden. So, when you click on the Plus sign next to the Order Number, the detail rows display below.
However, what I'd like to do is change the background color of the toggled group header row when it is toggled and the details are displayed. Here's what's going on . . .
The row with the Order header information has every textbox set in bold. That's good. It makes a subtle distinction between the order detail rows and the order header row, so when you're looking at the dollar amounts on each line item and trying to add them up in your head to see whether they correctly add up to the dollar amount in the order header row, you can at least more easily see the total amount. However, it makes the whole overall report look funny because all of the order header information is in bold. What I really want to do is change the background color of the order header row to light gray or some other subtle color and change the font to Bold when the details are toggled to visible in order to distinguish that row as the header row.
In order to do this, I think I somehow need to get to a certain element of the Reporting Services object model called "Textbox.ToggleState". If I can get to that piece of the puzzle in an expression or even in code within the report, that should tell me the state of the textbox's toggle switch and I should be able to use that information to conditionally set the color of the textbox.(or every textbox in the row probably.) Here's all I could find out about this on TechNet
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.reportingservices.reportrendering.textbox.togglestate.aspx
I just can't figure out how to get to that piece of information in a Reporting Services expression or in the report's code block.
Any suggestions? I'd appreciate a response even if it's "You can't do that." Actually, the best response someone might be able to provide might be a link to a sample showing how to get to any of the textbox properties like that.
Thanks!

I am creating a report with a Matrix and this report contain a collapse Matrix which it toggle from a certain field.
Now I am having two issue:First issue is that when I set visibility to hide and that the matrix can be toggle by a field is leaving a very unaesthetic space between rows.
The second problem is that when I toggle the field I would like another part of the report to hide.
Does it exists anything that would allow me to define an expression I can use in the visibility that I Can use to make disappear this part of the report when the + has been toggle and make it appear back when the - has been toggle?
I have a requirement where i have to display some data which is coming from a sub report when i click on an image. I have two problems here,
1) if i provide toggle on image text box it is displaying + symbol which i don't want
2) If i provide image properties -> action -> go to report -> it is displaying the values in a different page but my requirement is to display in the same page
Conclusion is : when i click on the image(without + symbolo) i have to display sub report values in the same page.
Hi,
1) We will setup logshipping for a large database.
2) 2 systems are located at different city
3) Instead of use 'backup from primary and restore with norecovery to secondary ', we planned to use
SAN disk clone to get a second set of disks for related database files and log files.
4) We will mount the disk to the secondary server, however, how can we put the database on the new
server as 'norecovery' mode so that we can setup logshipping to this server ??
Another easy example is:
1) detach database
2) Copy database files to another disk
3) bring the disk to another city and attached to the new server
The database is recoveryed, how can we attach the database or mount the disk and make
the database as norecovery so that we can keep apply new logs??
For 2 identical database image, how can we toggle one from normal to norecovery to setup logshipping?
Is change 'status' from master database working?
Thank you very much for any words.
If this is the wrong forum, please point me to a correct one since I am new here and I can't find a
backup/restore related forum.

When I create a Report Server Project Using Visual Studio 2005 with SQL Server 2005 I can create a data source with no problem and the test shows it is good good.
When I next create a report and go to the query builder using that same data source and click on the query builder button I see the Query Builder screen, but there is no toggle button in the top left of the screen so I cannot go into the graphical mode to see the tables.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Visual Studio and SQL Server but I still have the same problem. What should I do to get the button visible on the screen?
Can anyone help?
I have been combing the Internet trying to find a way to use the SOAP API
(ReportExecution2005) web service to render a report to HTML4.0 format with
toggle items. From what I have read, the new web services should provide
ASP.NET server-side postbacks from the toggle item images, but so far I have
seen only the same behavior as was in RS 2000, which was that the toggle item
images pointed back to the ReportServer address. The following is the device
info settings that i have used to get the images to show up on the aspx page:
<DeviceInfo><StreamRoot></StreamRoot><Toolbar>False</Toolbar>
<Parameters>False</Parameters>
<HTMLFragment>False</HTMLFragment>
StyleStream>False</StyleStream>
<Section>0</Section>
DeviceInfo>
If I switch the HTMFragment to True I don't get any toggle item images to
render on the page but the report still shows up, and when I actually set the
StreamRoot paramter to something like this
"http://[server]/[virtualdirectory]/GetImage.aspx?reportpath=[path]&streamid=" to render the toggle item images, I get a http 400 : Bad Request error page.
Can someone please provide some information or sample code on how to render
an HTML4.0 report using the SQL 2005 Reporting Services web service and
getting the toggle item images to render as well as work correctly.
Thanks,
Brian

Hi All,
I have a report that has a toggle item that toggles between showing and hiding report items specifically the detail rows, I am wondering can I also used this toggle item to change the font color of other report items. Exampl is I have a toggle item, EmployeeName that toggles the detail rows of the employee from visible to hidden. Can I also use this toggle to change the text color of other report items or highlighting different items.
Thanks & Regards
