Export To PDF Loses VbCRLF Formatting

Jul 6, 2007

Hi



I've simplified this so I can test it's not me and so it's easier to explain.



I have one table in SQL server called Table1. Five fields called: One, Two, Three, Four, Five. Values of NULL, 2, 3, 4, NULL.



Reporting services, put a table in a report. Two fields. Header of Field1 and Field2.



Value field data for Field1 ="One: " & vbcrlf & "Two: " & vbcrlf & "Three: " & vbcrlf & "Four: " & vbcrlf & "Five: "



Value field data for Field2 =Fields!One.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Two.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Three.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Four.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Five.Value



Preview the report, all is well, you get this:

Field1 Field2
One:
Two: 2
Three: 3
Four: 4
Five:



Export it to a PDF, all is not well, I get this:
Field1 Field2
One: 2
Two: 3
Three: 4
Four:
Five:

I can make it work by checking the NULL fields and replacing them with a character. But why does it ignore the vbCRLF when exported to a PDF?

Any ideas...

Use SSIS To Export To Excel With Formatting

Mar 4, 2008

I need to populate three worksheets within the same workbook with data from SQL 2005. However, I am not sure how to handle the custom formatting. Even if I use a template, my data does not start at Row 2 for any of the worksheets.

Under SQL 2000 DTS, I used to work directly in an ActiveX script task to instantiate an Excel workbook and loop through the data, placing it in the correct cells, handle formatting, etc. I cannot seem to find any way to do this in SQL 2005 but perhaps I am missing an easier option?

Does anybody have a solution?

Kind regards,
Steve

Export To Excel - Formatting Number Output

Aug 17, 2006

Hi all,

Once again, SSIS is giving me a 'F.U.N.' time (ask for definition of the F.U.N. acronym another time ).

I
have a relatively simple task - create an excel spreadsheet with 3
columns of data - Id, Description and Sales. ID and Description are
text, sales is int.

So my SP aggregates and creates my resultset
in my OLE DB Source in the Data Flow. It proceeds to the Excel
destination, and that all seems fine. My issue is that the data is
being written as text. Looking at the excel destination in Advanced
editor:
the Excel Destination Input, Input columns are formatted as
I expected: DT_WSTR 8 for the ID, DT_WSTR 100 for the Description and
DT_I4 for the Sales.
Excel Destination Input, External columns refuse to fall in line, though. They are all listed as DT_WSTR 255.

The
target excel spreadsheet is being created from a template file. That
template file has header columns. The target column for the Sales has
the entire column formatted to NUMBER (0 decimals). Yet to now avail.

When
I check the spreadsheet, the column has retained the cell formatting,
and I have a 'I' pop-up to inform me that 'someone' has inserted text
data into the number column (even though the data IS number).

Since
the SP spits out INT, it isn't a case of receiving a text value, imho.
While trying to change the external column data type in the advanced
editor, SSIS is quite happy to let me change the value for the Sales
output to DT_I4, apply, and ok. Then, when I open it immedaitely
aftgerwards, it has reverted to the DT_WSTR's! AArrgh. If is can't
handle it, at least tell me when I try and change it. don't let me
change it, and then revert back without telling me! Grumble grumble...

So - anyone know a way around this?

Funky Formatting Of Percentages In Excel Export

Sep 18, 2007



I've created a report that has cells in it that I want to be formatted as percentages. I set the format code in the cell properties to "P1" and everything appears to work fine until I export to Excel. Some cells show up with only one digit after the decimal and some show up with two digits after the decimal.
I looked at the formatting in Excel (right click, Format Cells...) and it is set to "[$-1010409]#,##0.0#%". I don't have the first clue what that is "supposed" to do but what it does is this:

If I enter 100.00 in the cell it shows up as 100.0%. Expected
If I enter 100.10 in the cell it shows up as 100.1%. Expected
If I enter 100.15 in the cell it is displayed as 100.15%. Not expected

I have formatted the report to only show one digit after the decimal, but RS exports to Excel with some funky formatting that sometimes shows one digit and sometimes two digits after the decimal. Why wouldn't it simply format the cell as a percent? How can I get it to only show a single digit after the decimal?

This is Excel 2007 but Excel 2003 has the same behavior.

Thanks
--John

SQL Server 2014 :: Export Data Without HTML Formatting

Oct 22, 2015

I need to export some Database data into a text file. My Query looks like this:

SELECT Category1, Category2, Category3
FROM dbo.tbl1
WHERE Category1 = 'JP-4'
AND Category2> 4;

This works fine to get the data, however there is some html formatting in the table entries such as

`<p>,</p>,
,</br>` etc.

So ideally I need to remove those when exporting the data to the text file. I've tried to do it with a simple replace query but that didn't work. I've also got an issue with line splits and would need to remove the ( ).

The Data format is something like this:

Category1: JP-4
Category2: 4
Category3:<p>Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor</p> <p>amet, consectetur, adipisci velit</p>
Category4:<p>Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor</p>

I got it to work like this with the replace function:

SELECT REPLACE(REPLACE("PHOTOGRAPHS",'<p>',''),'</p>','')
FROM dbo.khia_tbl
WHERE Category1= 'JP-4'
AND Category2> 4;

But the issue is that I've got 15 columns in total and that I need to do it for several different tags for each column so
,
</br>,

as well as "" and different spaces so that would be a lot and I thought there must be a better/more efficient way of doing it...

Subreport Inside List, Excel Export Formatting Problem

Jan 27, 2008



Hi,

I have got a report which has a table and a list. I used list, as I wanted to use a subreport and be able to export it to excel. The subreprot takes two parameters from the main report.

When I run the report, it looks ok, but when I export it to excel, the formatting is all messed up, the subreport in the list appears after all the rows of the table.

I have aligned the list very close to the last column of the table.

Looks like this in designer. (List is very close to the last column.
Can some one help me if there is any better way of doing this.

Thank you,
Chai.

Garbled Text In TextBoxes Containing VbCrLf When Exported To PDF

Apr 17, 2008

Hi

I am using SSRS 2005 on a development server. The access is over https.
Whenever a TextBox of a report contains a vbCrLf and this report is
exported to PDF this text is garbled. Text not containing CR LF is ok.

The text is still latin characters but has nothing to do with the text intended to show.
Character spacing is broken. Sometimes more than one character are rendered
over each other.

I do not have the same problem on a production SSRS box.

The only difference is that the development box has .NET framework 3.5 installed
and production is still on 2.0

Is this a known issue?
Maybe there is already a patch?

SCD Loses Mappings

Oct 23, 2007

Is it normal that my scd loses its mappings if I change one of its inputs?

When I talk about mappings, I talk about the first page of the scd wizard. I set everything (all the columns, business keys) and run the wizard until the last step. SCD creates two outputs (Changed and New Rows). All Ok.

If a column I use as input in the scd changes (for example, it is not a conversion column any more but a derived with the same name), my scd loses all the mappings!

It is very annoying since I have to map all of the columns again. Is this a normal behaviour of the scd or I' doing something wrong? Is there a way to 'repair' my mappings without needing to set one column at the time every time?

Attach Database Loses CLR

Sep 30, 2006

Hi

When I deploy a database (mdf and ldf) and attch the database I get errors when my stored procedures attempt to call CLR stored procs.

Error regards database trust and assembly safety etc. This works on my development system/database so it's setup correclty there.

Clearly I'm missing some additional setup when attaching the database to another server instance. Can't figure it out though. I'm marking the assembly UNSAFE (it requires network access) and the database as trustworthy when attaching but the error persists. Also making sure the server instance has CLR enabled.

What am I missing? Any ideas?

Need Help Authentication Loses HttpContext??

Jul 31, 2007



We have both a custom data extension and a custom authentication extension for Reporting Services 2000.

Reports with one dataset work great, but reports with more than one dataset fail because the Authentication extension call GetUserInfo no longer has an HttpContext when the second dataset calls into it.

I've seen several people post this same problem on other forums but no answers. Documentation of an msdn article states "the security extension will always be loaded in the Report Server app domain" so I don't understand how we could lose the context.

Additionally, ALL samples of an authentication extension I've looked at have GetUserInfo coded the same way:




Code Snippet


Public Sub GetUserInfo(ByRef userIdentity As System.Security.Principal.IIdentity, ByRef userId As System.IntPtr) Implements Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces.IAuthenticationExtension.GetUserInfo


If Not System.Web.HttpContext.Current Is Nothing _


AndAlso Not System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User Is Nothing Then

userIdentity = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity

Else


userIdentity = Nothing

End If
userId = IntPtr.Zero

End Sub

Any help or insights would be GREATLY appreciated - thanks, Ken.

hi,

i wonder if anyone of you could tell me how i can get around the following problem:

i have text files with custom field and line delimiters (µ and ÿ). i import those files in dts objects using a connection to the text file. if the last field of the last record is empty, the importer loses the last record. is there any way to change this behaviour? or is there any way to have a special text in there, so that the importer recognizes it as a null value?

if you could help me out here it would eb highly appreciated.

SSIS Loses Layout Of Precedence Constraints When Saving.

MDX Query Results Loses Format After Data Transformation

Dec 28, 2007

Hi,

My first post here. I have an Analysis Services Cube and I need to export some of its data into a flat file (a semicolon separated value file) with fixed length columns.

What I have in Integration Services now is:

DataReader Source (ADO.Net conection)
Data Transformation (NTEXT -> WSTR)
Derived Column (WSTR -> STR, and some ISNULL validation)
Flat File Destination (Delimited by ";")

the thing is I have all the measures and calculated measures in the cube formated with format strings and they work fine when I do a query through the SQL server Managment Studio, but in Integration Services before the columns are written into the file they lose its format.

for example, I have a calculated member called "Deuda Total Nacional" that returns something like this +0001234,00 and I need to take off the decimal separator so it is written into the file like this +000123400 , I'm doing it this way

(ISNULL([Deuda Total Nacional]) ? "+00000000000" : REPLACE([Deuda Total Nacional],",",""))

instead it is written like this 1234.

I hope you can help me with this.

Thanks

Sql Server Express Loses Ability To Write To Database

Jun 17, 2006

After a period of use (typically 1-2 hours), an application using SQL Server Express stops writing to the database, whilst still continuing to read from it. As far as I can tell, no error message is generated by any operation. The application is written in VB Express and is executed on several machines, with SQL Server Express on a central machine. Re-starting the application on the affected machine restores normal operation.

The problem on one machine does not cause a similar problem elsewhere at the same time (hence it appears to be an issue with the relationship between the application and SQL Server)

This does not appear to relate to the response to Q asked by sgcook on 9 may as we are not using user instances, but only a bare minimum connection string.

Sql 2000 Copy To Sql 2005 Loses Identity Seeds In Transfer

Feb 3, 2006

I have a database that I am trying to copy to sql server 2005 and when I copy it the "Identity Seed" property loses its value.

I have tried to use the "Export" method by right clicking on the database then going to "Tasks" then "Export Data"
This copies all of the data but it removes the "Identity Seed" value.

When I run the "copy database" function it will also copy all of the data in the database but it will still not keep the "Identity Seed" value


I have many tables in the database with the identity seed field set to 1 on the primary key so that it will automatically create the primary key for each record.
Without this errors will occur in my web application because it thinks that I am trying to enter a null value into the primary key when it is supposed to auto populate.
When I export it with sql server 2005 it turns it back to zero.
The export function worked fine in Sql server 2000

The only way I can get it to work is by backing up the database and restoring it, but this is very time consuming and adds many steps to the process, and also makes it so that I have to overwrite my old database with the same name.

Is there a way to use the export function or the copy database function to retain the Identity Seed value

I really need this to continue do the switch to 2005 server. It seems like this may be a bug of some sort

SQL Server Agent Job Step Properties Window Loses Property Values Containing Semicolon (;)

May 16, 2007

Here's a weird one:



We are setting up a job for the SQL Server Agent via SSMS. The Job Step Type is SSIS.



In the Job Step Properties window, on the Set values tab, you can enter Values to override your package variables - normally all well and good.



However in this particular case, the variable Value contains semicolons ( - it is a Connection String for an ODBC driver. Eg: Driver={Client Access ODBC Driver (32-bit)};system=MYSERVER;...



The behaviour for this Value is weird:

If the Value is not surrounded with double quotes ("), the job fails with "The command line parameters are invalid."
If the Value is surrounded with double quotes ("), the job will run as intended. The catch is: that entry and any subsequent "Set Values" entries disappear next time the Job Step Properties window is opened.

This looks like a bug with the parsing of those strings by the Job Step Properties window?



Or am I missing something?

Power Pivot :: Pivot Table Loses Text Wrapping For Text Data Upon Refresh

Apr 29, 2015

I have a pivot table that connects to our data warehouse via a PowerPivot connection.  The data contains a bunch of comment fields that are each between 250 and 500 characters.  I've set the columns in this pivot table to have the 'Wrap Text' set to true so that the user experience is better, and they can view these comment fields more clearly.

However, whenever I refresh the data, the text wrapping un-sets itself.  Interestingly, the 'Wrap Text' setting is still enabled, but I have to go and click it, then click it again to actually wrap the text.  This is very burdensome on the user, and degrading the experience.

Any way to make this text wrapping stick so that I don't have to re-set it every time I refresh the data?
