Is it possile for a report to be exported to multiple PDF files, each pdf file would be for a group in the report and would ideally use field information for the group to construct the pdf filename?
The purpose of this is to provide a separate PDF for access over the web, so for example we have a scheduled report that generates a report grouped by sales region we would end up with SalesRegionA.PDF, SalesRegionB.PDF etc.
I have a report in SSRS 2008 R2 that has multiple subreports, in fact the report uses the same subreport twice with different parameters. Then that subreport also has a subreport, which has a subreport. (It's a complex data scenario with a hierarchy that can go up to three layers deep.)  The report renders fine in report viewer, but when I try to export to PDF I get the following error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Source Error: An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.
[Code] ....
Each subreport renders correctly to PDF, and if I remove either subreport from the main report, it also renders correctly. But the two subreports together on the report cause the error.
Removing the third hierarchy layer (the final one) fixes the issue. Is there a limit to the number of nested subreports when rendering to a pdf?
We should support multiple language(Latin,chinese,japanese,korea) in one report when exporting to PDF format in reporting service. We have used Arial Unicode as our font. But when we exported the report, the korean language item can not be displayed. Any idea on that? Thanks a lot.

While exporting a SSRS 2005 report in CSV format ,can we include the report headers and footers also to be exported .
Thanks .
A simple tabular Report Builder report was written to feed another system that requires quoted CSV. I have two issues when exported:
1) I can't get control over the exported column names. Currently, they are exported as "FIELDNAME_Value".
When I try to change the column headings in the designer, it has no effect on the exported column names
When I create a New Field and specify my desired column name (e.g., COMPANY), the export appears as COMPANY_Value.
How do I control these names for the CSV export?
2) The spec calls for quoted text. In my export, only values with special characters are quoted.
Thanks in advance.

I need to export data from multiple tables into one single file. The big problem here is that the tables will have different column types.
I am attempting to create something that allows users to be able to send me the contents of their tables's, through either email or ftp. I would prefer to make it easier for them so they only have to deal with one file, instead of the multiple files that bcp and dts create when exporting from multiple tables.
I was thinking of using DTS or BCP and then join (append) the files (either zip them or append the files together in some fashion), but I was hoping that there was an easier method out there.
Any ideas on how I may accomplish this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi.
I've tried to create a SSIS package to simply export a bunch of tables as flat files, and am having troubles because when the for each loop hits the second table the column mappings in the flat file destination are not synchronised with its schema.
I created a for each loop with an enumerator that returns the table names and sets a user variable.
I created a data flow task which dynamically connects to the table name variable.
In the Flat File Destination there is a column mapping property, but I don't know how to reset these mappings on each iteration.
Any ideas?
I have a report , it's very simple . just only showing all records.
I used the function RowNumber to show pagination.
It 's ok that I export to PDF file. but when I exported to a excel , I find every report pagination export to multiple sheets in excel.
I don't need this, I need show all data in one sheet,not multiple sheets.
Are there any solutions of this problem?
thanks advance !

I'm running Reporting Services SP2. I've searched other postings and I can't seem to find anyone else with the same issue. I'm able to export to excel with no problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.
Hi Recently we upgraded to SQL 2005 SP2 from SQL 2005. However a problem I am noticing is on Windows 2000 machines, the report name doesn't automatically pass the save as dialog box. Anybody else get this problem or know how to fix it?
The default value in the save as dialog box is Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl. Also when I click export and I'm given the option to open/save the file, the file name is Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd
My report is currently rendering about 50,000 rows and can still be increased.I am using SSRS 2005.I am exporting my rdls into HTML,Excel and PDF.My problem is when i export all the rows in PDF it won't continue and an error was produced.It says "Too many results, please constrain your parameters or try the other format."But using the same parameter which brings out the 50,000 rows,it works fine in HTML and Excel.
Which of the 3 rendering extension is the fastest in performance?Could it be HTML?What could be the reason why it wont work on PDF?Can't it contain such bulk record?Or is there anything can be done to solve the problem?
If anyone have encountered the same problem,we will be happy to hear from you.Any ideas and comments will be greatly appreciated..Thanks
Hi,
I am trying to export a report that generates around 32,000 records in excel but it throws an error page €œServer Application unavailable€?.Exporting it in pdf format works fine.When I filtered the data selecting 'ALL' option for all the inputs I got this error meggase but When I view the report selecting a particular detail for the required data,it exports to excel normally.Is this because the number of records have been reduced?Is there anyway to resolve this issue?
Thanks,

We just upgraded from SQL 2000 to 2005. Under 2000, I could export multiple stored procs to separate windows files.
Is there a way to do this under 2005 without exporting 1 proc at a time?
Dear Anyone,
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
Please help me.
I need to export around 1 million records to excel. As we know that there is a limit of approx 65,000 rows in one worksheet so the exporting functionality is failing. One way is that I should be able to configure the Reporting Service in such a way so that once 65,000 records gets populated in the first worksheet, then the rest 35,000 records gets popultaed in the second worksheet.
I am not able to find out how this can be achieved in Reporting Services. Please help me in this.
Thanks in advance.

I have e-mails saved in a SQL database with all HTML formatting information.
To remove all HTML formatting I craeted a function on the RS report:
Public Shared Function removeHtmlChar(ss)
try
Dim l as integer
Dim i as integer
Dim ch as string
Dim x as integer
Dim t as string
t = ""
l=len(ss)
for i=1 to l
ch=mid(ss,i,1)
x=i
if(ch="<") then
x=i
do while(mid(ss,x,1)<>">")
x=x+1
loop
else
t=t & ch
end if
i=x
next
t = t.Replace("nbsp;"," ")
removeHtmlChar = t
catch
removeHtmlChar = ""
end try
End Function
When I look at the report on the screen the report is showed correct.
If I print or export the report it add a lot of line breaks in the e-mail text.
Why does it not print it as it looks at the screen?

I created a report using visual studio 2005. Everything works fine except when users export it to excel. I have a column that links the user to another report but when they try to access it from the spreadsheet it is using localhost instead of the report server. Is there an easy way to fix this instead of updating each cell? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Does SSRS 2005 have the issue fixed as to when the user exports a report to .xls format and the report contains a subreport?
In SSRS 2000, if there was a subreport in the main report, and the user exported the report to .xls, then it would just display an error message.
Thanks!
Dear Friends,
I want to retain the formulae defined in the Reporting Services to be retained when I export the report to Excel. I want to know the best possible way to achieve the same.
Scenario:
I have a report which has 4 Columns.Column 1 and Column 2 are fetched from Database. Column 3 is empty and Column 4 (Formulae defined using expressions) is computed with the formulae using the previous 3 Columns.
My requirement is that upon rendering of the report, I'll download the report to excel and the end user enters some values in the column 3 and based on the value entered, Column 4 Formula has to be computed. But when I download the Report to Excel, my Formulae expression is not retained.
Kindly let us know if there is any other means of doing this in reporting services itself. Else please suggest an appropriate alternative, either through third party or in any other way.
Thanks in Advance,
S Suresh

I have a report when I export it to excel it exported successfully.
But when I open the report the grid lines are gone.
I have to manually enable grid lines to view them.
How Can I export the file to excel such that grid line will be enable
2,Currently I am checking the export to excel via report manager.
What should be the url to export to excel.
I created a report using visual studio 2005. Everything works fine except when users export it to excel. I have a column (ID) that links the user to different reports depending on what type of ID it is. I'm using the "Jump to Report" option and have created a custom function. When they export the report to an excel spreadsheet and click on the link, it's using localhost instead of the report server name. Is there an easy way to fix this instead of updating each cell with the report server? Thanks.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using SSRS 2008 R2 and have a report set up on a subscription to be exported to a .TXT file and placed in a network drive folder. The report generates as it should and is placed in the network folder as it should and the file format is .TXT. However, when the text file is uploaded to an ftp site, the results of the very first record within the system the file is uploaded to, has 3 weird leading characters.
But the rest of the records are imported perfectly, as they should be. The system that the file is being uploaded into is not our system, it is a system at a USA Today Newspaper office and is an IBM iSeries server with the programming language of LANSA (Never heard of it).
I have edited the report server configuration file to give the ability to export the report to a .TXT file format and I have included the code snippet on here. Maybe I have missed something, not sure. I have also included the screenshot of the file upload results that were sent to me by USA Today. Is there anything I can do to get those 3 characters to not show up in the first record?

We are facing one problem while exporting the SSRS (SQL Server 2005 SP2 installed on win2K3) Report to Excel format, problem is when we export report having more than 50K rows to Excel format SSRS fails to export because it€™s a limitation of Excel that a Sheet can€™t contain more than 50K rows. This issue is resolved in Office 2007 but SSRS its own libraries to export, is there any way we can make SSRS to use office 2007 libraries to export? Has anybody faced the similar issues? would appreciate if you can give solution for this problem or forward any link which discusses the same.
Hi, I've build correctly my report using the most efficient tools. I've made the preview and it worked just fine!However, when I export to PDF, it splits the report heigth into two pages, having the columns of my table and other controls splitted.
I'm already using the font size as 7 or 8 (depends), really small, I've tried hard to reduce their size, however the result remains the same...no resolution!!
Is there anybody who may have or had this situation?Any guests or help?Thanks a lot!

Added to that a cell doesnt hold more than 255 characters in excel.
