Export To Excel Issue With Collapsed And Expanded Records...
May 2, 2007
Hello everyone here!
I am developing a report which uses the collapse and expand functionality. But the functionality indicates that all the records when rendered in Excel must all be expanded, and collapse button must not be visible once exported.
But I have noticed that when the report is processed, the first row that is grouped was collapsed, but the other records below we're all expanded.
I just can't seem to detect the error for this, because the rendering we're all fine with the HTML version and PDF version, and another thing it is always on the first row that the records were collapsed.
Any idea regarding this scenario? Any help will be highly appreciated. Is this an issue of the Service Pack used for the Reporting Services? Or it is really an Excel issue?

I have created a matrix where I have booleans on the rows and columns. They are initially in the collapsed state. For reporting purposes, I would like the initial state to to be expanded or at list a quick fix to quickly convert the collapsed booleans to expanded booleans.
I have navigated to the Layout tab and right-clicked the fields that are tied to the boolean and then clicked on the properties. This bring sup the Textbox Properties. From here, I click on the Visibility tab. At the bottom of the textbox is a section "Initial appearance of the toggle image for this report item:". The default choice is marked as collapsed (+). One would logically think that you you would have to do then is select the expanded (-). choice. Well, when I do this, all it simply does is chance the icon from a '+' to a '-' and the fields are still shown as collapsed.
Any ideas on what I need to do?

=IIF(table1_group2 is Collapsed,True,False)
I want to generated some event based on actual state of e.g. report group. if user expand group make this event otherwise (group is collapsed) make another event.
Thanks for your advice.

Hi,Basically I have a Matrix report with two column drilldown parameters, named "result" and "detail of the result". Then When I click on the detail cell I am passing two parameters to filter the linked report.The first one is quite direct I pass it and it's allright.The second one has me crazy... If I pass it while the second column is collapsed, the first value is passed.... When I am not choosing anyone and the sum of all the columns is shown, I need (and surely all of us) That when a drilldown column is collapsed, the respective value of the column that I pass to the parameter is passed as null or better, That I am able to detect when a column is collapsed or not, for just not passing the parameter (faster).Well any help or guidance would help as I am lost on this.Thanks for the help,Jose
The only workaround (partially) I have found is, on the TextBox properties, Navigation tab, Parameters details is to assign the following expression to the Omit column:
=IIf(IsNothing(Fields!Det_Result.Value) Or (Trim(Fields!Det_Resul.Value)="") , True, False)
But that only works when the parameter is text and is a null or empty value... not nice...

When I open the spreadsheet in Excel 2000, it works fine. When I try to print, it crashes Excel. In testing, I narrowed it down to the Header/Footer, because it also crashes when I go to Page Setup and click on the header/footer tab.
However, I can print the same spreasheet from Excel 2007.
Am I just dealing with a "you need to upgrade all your clients" situation, or is there a known issue with certian formatting that is passed out with reports that is not supported by older versions of Excel?
I am using Reporting Services 2005 SP2 to serve up the report that is exported to Excel.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Hi All
I've been googling this for a while now and can't seem to find any elegant answers.
I'm looking for an automated way to present a FORMATED Excel Spreadsheet to the Customer from a stored procedure output.
Can anyone advise me the best method of doing this - should I / can I assign an Excel Template to the DTS Task output ?
His mind is set on Excel and the formatting is basic and easy to write in a Macro which I've done, but this requires human interaction to finish the task (Automated Run Once on opening etc).
In an ideal world an individual would send an email to the Server with two formated parameters (@FromDate & @ToDate) and would be emailed back a ready formatted S/Sheet. But I believe he would be willing to just select the relevant SpreadSheet for the Daily / Weekly / Monthly periods dumped.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I have a report that a user can enter parameters in. If the user opens the report the parameter box is at the top and expanded. The report is also linked to by another report, so when a user clicks on something in this other report it becomes the parameter for the one I'm having the problem with. The problem is the user can select the number of days that are displayed, so when I link from the other report I just pass 10 by default, but now in the report the parameter box is collapsed and I'm worried that users won't find it. Is there a way to force it to be expanded? Sorry this is probably confusing to read.
Thank you,
Keith

Hello,
In the report I€™m making I set the visibility property of the textboxes comprising a row to be toggled on by an item in the group header. I set the initial visibility to hidden, and initial appearance to collapsed. Now this worked fine, I get group headers with the sum of the records, that I can expand by clicking +.
The problem is that even though the collapsed rows are empty and the lines separating them from each other are invisible, they still take up space so the other group header (when collapsed) starts not right away, but after a space which is equal to the sum of the height of all the hidden rows.
All I managed to do is set the row property to €ścan shrink to accommodate contents€? and set the row height to 0.07937cm this helps but if the group contains 50-100 records the space between headers is quite big.
I do not know why, but I can€™t set the row height to 0.0cm. This problem also bothers me when I hide duplicates in group and the empty row is still visible in the report. It takes up space and the people using the report are complaining for the unnecessary lines that hinder reading.
Could anyone help me with this one?
Regards
Darius

Hello,
I have a matrix which lets you drill-down by company divisions and then branches within those divisions, and the data columns show how many employees are required for each divisionranch, and how many they actually have. For example, Division 1 might have 9 / 9 for Actual / Required, but when you drill it down to Branches A and B, they may have 5 / 4 and 4 / 5 respectively. Therefore Branch A has surplus employees and Branch B has a shortfall, but at the Divisional level it looks like there are the correct number of employees.
Naturaly my customer is a bit concerned that this could be misleading data. Is there any way that I can check at the Divisional level (i.e. collapsed) whether a Branch at the expanded level has a surplus or shortage of employees? I'm not sure whether this could be resolved by redesigning the report or if it's even possible. Any ideas would be great!
Regards,
Peter Marshall

I want to run Stored procedure that is returning recordsets and is using cursors/ temporary tables (MS Sql 2000 Server).
The output of this SP is to be used to prepare an excel Report.
In the Transform Data Task Properties:
EXEC sp_ProductivityReport_ByDay '01/01/2005','02/01/2005'
It shows me the data in the Preview, but asks me to define transformations. Further on the transformations, it does not shows up the source columns (although they were populated in the preview)
When I perform the same task using DTS Export utility, i get the following error:
Error source: MS ole db provider for sql server
Error Desc : Null Accessors are not supported by this provider
context: error calling CreateAccessor. Your provider does not support all the interface/methods required by DTS
Please Help
Thanks

and update it to it text value.
for example: Site Id Column

12 = Ell2
Can someone get me started in the right direction?

I have written a query which dumps the output to a table, ideally I would like to select everything from this table in to an Excel file.
Looking @ http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2008/01/08/sql-server-2005-export-data-from-sql-server-2005-to-microsoft-excel-datasheet/
Made me think this would be quite easy... so
1. I created a spreadsheet named test.xls with the column headings from my temp table
2. Saved and closed this xls
3. Tried to run the following:
USE [PEI];
GO
INSERT INTO OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C:DELL est.xls;',
'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')
SELECT *
FROM tblCFPooled
GO
Where C:DELL est.xls is where I saved test.xls, tblCFPooled is the table I have populated in the firstplace and PEI is the database name.
When I run this the following error crops up:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.".
Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
I then found something on a different site:
http://www.mssqltips.com/tip.asp?tip=1202
So based on this I tried:
insert into OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Excel 8.0;Database=C:DELL est.xls;',
'SELECT * FROM [T$]') select * from tblCFPooled
And obtained the following error:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'T$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.".
Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
(I renamed the sheet1 to T if you are wondering where T$ comes in!)
Before running either of these 'export' queries I did as instructed in the first link:
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
Which produced results:
Configuration option 'show advanced options' changed from 0 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
Configuration option 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' changed from 0 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
I assumed from that I had successfully enabled Ad Hoc Distributed Queries - Is that correct?
Both methods seem to throw up a similar error, an error which makes me think its some kind of SQL authentication issue.
Has anyone successfully exported from SQL to Excel - if so, any tips?!
(For the record I am using Management Studio, we are running SQL Server 2005, I am doing all this on a Vista Business machine, the SQL server is on a local server on our network here. )

I have some reports that I used vbcrlf in. Whenever they are exported to Excel only the first line appears.
Ex: Name (&vbcrlf)
Address 1 (& vbcrlf)
Address 2 (& vbcrlf)
City, State, Zip
This exports to Excel and displays the name line only.
However, if I close the file that was exported and the extra blank screen, and hit export to excel again for a second time, all of the information is displayed.

I am having a problem exporting data to excel using t-sql. I need to create a t-sql stored procedure that exports the resultset of a dynamic query to Excel where the columns are not know beforehand.
I have been able to do it using bcp, but the problem is that the bcp method just exports the data to an tab-delimited ascii file with a .xls extension. Excel is smart enough to pick it up and parse it out into the individual cells, but the problem arises if the field value contains any special chars that may have been picked up when the user input the data by using copy & paste. Then the columns/rows are skewed for the record that has the field with the special chars in its field value.
I have tried using the openrowset method and if you know the fields(cols) that you want to retrieve, it works great. All you have to do is pre-create an excel file with the first row containing the columnNames for each column. But for dynamic queries, this is not an option. I have read somewhere that you can do a range, but have not been able to figure out to do that yet. You would have to pre-determine the number of columns & rows and figure out the range. Columns A-Z may not be as big an issue, but then I would have to figure out the values for any columns if the column count exceeded 26.
Outside of using Ole-Automation, is there any way than I can achieve the results that I really need? It just seems like over-kill for something that should be a simple task. If it cannot be done outside of Ole-Automation, is there a good example that someone can point me to?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi all,
I have a SSRS Report which I have built using only a table. There are many table header rows, detail rows and table footers rows. For the layout of the report, I have merged many Table columns as well.
So when I am exporting this report to excel, it renders the report as it is but I am not able to manipulate any data in the excel till I do a lot of cleaning up. I have to remove the table headers, footers and also unmerge the merged columns etc.
My users are asking that they need a way throught which when they export the data it presents them with just the data which can be easily sorted, added, manipulated.
Is there a way of doing this. I thought about two ways of doing it.
Make another report in which only the data is shown and thus when this data is exported, then only the data gets exported to excel. But this is a very tedious way. Because as the number of reports increases, thi sis going to be a tough task to follow.
Make a web service or a plug in which will be connected to my web form. Then when the Export to Excel is clicked, this plug in will clean up the SSRS Report and export to excel in a way that only the data is exported.
But I dont know much about web services or plug ins.
Could you please guide me that if it is achieveble. And what are the various ways in which this task can be done.
I really need this urgently. Any help or suggestion is welcome.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm trying to use the export to Excel (Excel Destination) however, I wish to supply a dynamic piece of SQL to generate the data.
When I set the properties I just get an option to enter "Table or View", "Table or View as Variable" or "SQL Command".
The issue is that the table does not exist until the SSIS job is run and the columns will not always be the same anyway.
How can I use a simple dynamic piece of SQL (or stored proc) to get a recordset that is simply dumped out to excel - rows... columns... nothing more ?.
Help very much appreciated - Paul.

Hi,
I have several similar reports all with a table with more or less columns depending on the report it self.
On one report I made the table rows with a bigger Height( because I have a small column with big data where I need to wrap)
It works OK on the Preview (Designer)
it works OK on the reports Web Page (ReportManager) .
it works OK when I export to PDF
When I export to Excel the rows are not with the height I specified and not all the data is visible (I have to adjust row height in excel).
Why is this appening?
Help is really apprecieted.
Tks,
