Expression In DataSource Conenction String

Dec 4, 2007

I'm not exactly sure how to phrase this problem. If I'm going about this the wrong way, any pointers would be appreciated.

I am using an expression for a data source connection so I can decide which server/database to use at runtime. I also need to pass credentials to use for that connection. The only way I'm able to get this to work is to specify "No Credentials" for the data source and then pass a DataSourceCredentials to the report throught the report viewer. This works, for the most part, but puts a "Change Credentials" link in the report viewer.

What I think would be much better is if I could specify the credentials in the connection string that I pass. However, everything I've tried so far has not worked. I get errors complaining that the compination of options is invalid or that the report server cannot find the credentials of "unknown keyword: User Name". All by trying various combinations of things.

How do other people go about this? I've seen blogs implying that this is not such a big deal (that credentials CAN be passed over in the connection string). Hopefully I'm missing something simple here. If I have no choice, the "Change Credentials" link will not be the end of the world, but that's very sloppy. The people viewing this report will not know anything about the database credentials and I'd rather not show them somthing as inviting as a link that can get them off track.

Thanks for your help!

SQL Datasource Passed To Query String?

Aug 8, 2006

I have been attempting to build a search engine that searches a database full of invoices. The user will enter in a invoice number and then the results will be returned if the exact invoice exists and if the record belongs to the user.
My first attempt has involved the use of a SQL Datasource to pass a stored procedure based on what is in the search textbox and the information in the cookie about the user.  I was hoping that on the btnsearch.click event that I could somehow return the stored procedure in the SQL DataSource. My next step was to make the result (if exists) part of the query string like this:
Response.Redirect("~/Invoice.aspx?Invoice=?"+ SQLRETURNEDVALUE)
 
I'm looking for any help to a possible way to use my idea or any other ideas to get a invoice number and place it into a query string so that the result can be fetched on the next page. Thanks

ODBC Conenction To Netezza

Apr 10, 2008

I'm working on an SSIS Package which has an Execte SQL Task that does a simple query from a Netezza database:

select max(dimensionKey) from dimTable

I use an ODBC connection to connect to the Netezza database. If I configured the SQL Task to produce one row of record, then use a integer type variable to capture the result. I got the following error:


[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "MaxDestinationKey": "Result column index 0 is not valid.".

If I configured the SQL Task to produce a full result set, and use an object type variable to capture the result, I got the following error:


[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "select max(ExternalKey) from admin.dim_external" failed with the following error: "Disconnected recordsets are not available from ODBC connections.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.

Similar SQL Task that insert and update Netezza tables worked fine. Just when i need to extract the result set, I got this problem.

By the way, I also was able to get it to work using a script task, and odbc connection, ODBCCommand.ExecuteScalar(), etc. When the dimension table gets very big, the script task would time out. However, when I got timeout tried to insert and delete records in Netezza using the Script Task component, I was able to get it to work by using the Execute SQL Task without encountering timeout. Not sure why they behave differently, as both odbc conneciton strings are the same. Thus, I want to try using the Execute SQL Task in the query situation to bypass timeout issue, but without luck extracting the result. Also configuring Netezza timeout so far seems uneffective and Netezza hasn't resolved my support ticket. Long story short, if you want to suggest I use Script Task it will not help me.

Allowing A Conenction To A SQL Server 2005 Database From Another Computer On A LAN

Mar 8, 2007

I am working with one other person on a VS 2005 vb.net web project that accesses SQL Server 2005.  Both the computers are connected and my partner can run the application on his computer from his VS 2005 but we are getting an error on our first databind to a gridview on the page we are trying to run the error is below
A connection was successfully established with theserver, but then an error occurred during thepre-login handshake.  When connecting to SQL Server2005, this failure may be caused by the fact thatunder the default settings SQL Server does not allowremote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider,error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)
 
I check the properties of the SQL Server and the check box is checked that says allow remote access.  I am not sure what to do.

Evaluate A String Expression

Aug 9, 2006

Hi,

I have a table which has expression as a column and the data looks similar to the following .



ID (int) Expression (nvarchar data type)

1 8*(1/2)-6

2 278*(1/4)-2

3 81*(3/5) +4



I now have the expression as an nvarchar. (Ex: 8*(1/2)-6)

Now I need to evaluate this expression and output the result (which is -2 in above Ex) .Can someone give me idea on how do I evaluate the expression which is available as a string. I need to write a procedure for this.

I am unable to cast/convert nvarchar to float/int

Any sample code would be greatly appreciated.

This a very urgent requirement for me.Please get back

Thanks

String Parsing And Expression Builder....

Oct 10, 2007

I can't figure this one out. I don't have enough knowledge of the string functions I guess.

I need to pull a value out of a variable I setup in a for each loop. The value is the filename/path of each source file being processed. Let's say the variable that has the source file path is called VAR1.

One sort of off topic thing I've noticed is when watch the variable in bebug mode and I look at the value of VAR1 it has double back slashes. Here's an example of the value of VAR1:

"\\L3KRZR6.na.xerox.net\C$\Documents and Settings\ca051731\Desktop\Project4\DPT_20070926.ver"

How come the back slashes have been doubled? And do I need to account for that when I start parsing the string value?

Anyway, I need to grab part of the filename from VAR1 and I need the value populated at the start of the for each loop container - ideally when I capture VAR1 in the for each container. I'll be using the string in drop table, create table and create index statements before the actual Data Flow task within the overall package

In the above example I need to grab the characters before the underscore and after the last \. So I'd need the string "DPT" captured in this example.

The actual string could be 1 to 3 characters long, even though this example has it as 3 long.

Underscores could exist anywhere in the actual UNC path once this package is moved to our actual system environments so I can't key off of the underscore.

Because I can't count on the string being a fixed lenght I can't just use a positional string function and grab specific text starting/ending at specific points.

Is there a way to use the various string functions in the expression builder to grab the text between the right most underscore and the right most back slashes or something like that? Ideally I'd like to setup a new expression based packed scope variable called VAR2 and build it using string functions applied to VAR1.

String Formatting Expression Problem

May 27, 2008

I have what should be a simple string formatting issue -- removing all alpha characters from a phone number. T-SQL below is simple and works just fine:


declare @home_phone as char(14);
set @home_phone = '(123)979-3206';
set @home_phone = REPLACE(@home_phone,'-','');
set @home_phone = REPLACE(@home_phone,'(','');
set @home_phone = REPLACE(@home_phone,')','');


The condensed version below works equally well:

set @home_phone = REPLACE((REPLACE((REPLACE(@home_phone,'(','')),')','')),'-','');


Either script above returns correct result:

select @home_phone;
Result = '1239793206'


HOWEVER, within SSIS Derived Column expressions, this function fails to remove parentheses. First of all, Expression Builder doesn't like outer single quotes (turns red) which I resolved by using double quotes resulting in the following expression:


REPLACE(home_phone,"-","") + REPLACE(home_phone,"'('","") + REPLACE(home_phone,"')'","")


Unfortunately, this expression fails to remove parentheses and instead returns: '(123)9793206'

I've tried several different permutations--no inner single quotes; adding more inner single quotes; etc., but so far no success. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Converting A String Expression To Proper Case

Oct 22, 2000

How would I convert an expression like on of these to all upper case first letters with remaining letters lower case? VB has a function for that but sql doesn't seem to. I thought about having a loop go through each character to check for spaces. I've written a couple of similar pieces of code in VB when a while ago, but is there a better way? Thanks :)

Just a couple of typical examples of how the data should appear ~

payment, credit card ==> Payment, Credit Card
butcher & singer ==> Butcher & Singer

Filters && Expression With String Values, Should They Work??

Dec 7, 2007

Any idea why this expression would not work in SSRS?

Based on a expression on a group textbox I get 0 records that match:
=Iif(Fields!ACCRUAL_CODE.Value <> "A", CountDistinct(Fields!LOAN_NBR.Value), 0)



I've evaluated in the proc & there should be a count of 29 records.

I found a work around by using this in the stored proc & I get my record count:


ACCRUAL_CODE = CASE WHEN BASE.ACCRUAL_CODE = 'A' THEN 0 ELSE 1 END

and changed the expression in SSRS to this & it works:
=sum(Fields!ACCRUAL_CODE.Value)



Is this a known issue with strings? From searching on this site I see that string evaluations are widely used so I do not see why it wouldn't work. I've also see this when filtering the dataset on anything that is a character. Any suggestions?

Conditional Formatting Expression - Evaluate First 3 Characters Of String As Numbers

Mar 2, 2012

I'm trying to put conditional formatting on a field, that behaves as follows:

The data in the field is varchar, and sample data is either:

NULL
3.0 :0
11.7 :1 (these are ratios of a sort)

I want to evaluate the first 3 characters of the string as numbers.

Example:
Mid(fieldvalue,1,3) = "3.0" or "11."

Any data that is greater than 1.99, I want to make the background dark red, anything else including nulls, zebra formatting. I have the following expression built so far and it appears to work, except when the value is null. If the value is null, it leaves the background color white.

This is the warning: [rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The BackgroundColor expression for the text box "Asthma" contains an error: Input string was not in a correct format.

=iif(
isnothing(Fields!Asthma.Value)
,(IIf(RowNumber(Nothing) Mod 2 = 0,"#b8cce4","#dbe5f1"))
,(iif(mid(Fields!Asthma.Value,1,3)>1.99
,"DarkRed"
,IIf(RowNumber(Nothing) Mod 2 = 0,"#b8cce4","#dbe5f1"))))

My logic is, if the field is null, zebra format, if mid of the value is > 1.99, dark red, everything else zebra formatting. As I said, this seems to work except for nulls.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Search For A String In Expression By Number Of Its Appearance - Charindex

Apr 3, 2015

I have written a query to search for a string in an expression by the number of it's appearance. Script is like this:

DECLARE @Expression VARCHAR(8000) = 'abcd_e_fgh',
@SearchString VARCHAR(10)= '_',
@OccuranceNumber SMALLINT = 1
DECLARE @SearchIndex INT = 0, @SearchIndexPrevious INT = 0, @Sno INT = 0
WHILE @Sno < @OccuranceNumber BEGIN

[Code] .....

Here i'm trying to search "_" in expression "abcd_e_fgh" where it is appearing for first time. it gives me 5 correctly. Now when i change the @OccurenceNumber to 2 or 3, it gives correct values 7 and -1 respectively. However now when i change it to 4, it gives me 5. So when it's trying to check for fifth appearance of "_", it's not actually giving 0 or -1 but repeating the value 5.

Frror: 4000 Max String Literal In Expression For Datareader Component

Apr 15, 2006

Hi, I have a datareader component of which i am dynamically setting its sqlcommand statement with expression (click the background of dataflow > properties > expressions). Now my sql select statement has about 600 fields so that makes my expression statment "select field1, field2, .....from table1 where field2 >=" + @[User::dateforfield2] but when i evalute the expresssion (which is right), i get the error: A string literal in the expression exceeds the maximum allowed length of 4000 character and i think its because of the fields in my select statment causing my string literal to grow more than 4000 characters. Is there any way to increase the max string literal for expressions. Please help.

I'm also noticing nothing intuitive for deleting an existing dataset. How do you do these two very simple things in an existing project? I dont see the dataset in solution explorer, I see it only in the text box on the data tab and in a limited kind of way on the dataset view where the columns show and maint is allowed mostly on the columns only. I tried hilighting the dataset here and hitting the delete key to no avail.

Failed To Load Expression Host Assembly. Details: StrongName Cannot Have An Empty String For The Assembly Name.

Jan 12, 2006

I previously had an ASP.NET 1.1 site running on my IIS 6.0 server (not the default website) with Reporting Services running in a subdirectory of that website.  I recently upgraded to ASP.NET 2.0 for my website and was greeted with an error when trying to view a report.  The error was very non-descript, but when I checked the server logs, it recorded the details as "It is not possible to run two different versions of ASP.NET in the same IIS process.  Please use the IIS Administration Tool to reconfigure your server to run the application in a separate process."

 

First of all, I could not figure out where and how to do this.  Secondly, I decided to try to also change the Reporting Services folders to run ASP.NET 2.0 and when I did, I was greeted with the following message when attempting to view a report:

 

"Failed to load expression host assembly. Details: StrongName cannot have an empty string for the assembly name."

Reporting Services :: Running Value Expression Within Lookup Expression In SSRS?

Oct 28, 2015

I have created 1 report with 2 datasets. This report is attached to the 1st dataset.For example,1st one is "Smallappliances", 2nd is "Largeappliances".

I created a tablix and, the 1st column extracts Total sales per Sales person between 2 dates from 1st dataset (Small appliances). I used running values expression and it works fine.

Now, I would like to add another column that extracts Total sales per sales person between 2 dates from 2nd dataset (Large appliances). I am aware that I need to use Lookup expression and it is giving me the single sales value rather than the total sales values. So, I wanted to use RunningValue expression within lookup table to get total sales for large appliances.

This is the lookup expression that I added for the 2nd column.

=Lookup(Fields!salesperson.Value,Fields!sales_person.Value,RunningValue(Fields!sales_amount.Value,
sum, " sales_person"),
"Largeappliances").

I get this error when I preview the report.An error occurred during local report processing.The definition of the report is invalid.An unexpected error occurred in report processing.

(processing): (SortExpression ++ m_context.ExpressionType)

What Is A Datasource Used For?

Mar 18, 2008

Hi All,

I have a question about the datasource that we create on the Report Manager. What is it used for? In the below connection string which is given in the "Connection String" text box of a datasource link:

"Data Source=ProdServer;Initial Catalog=Northwind"

What is this datasource used for? Is it used only to use the ReportServer database or even our queries incorporated in the RDL files will be run against this datasource? I think the latter should not happen because while creating RDL files also, we provide a connection string to run the stored procedures against that datasource.

Please let me know about the same.

Thanks a lot and let me know if the question is not clear.

Manoj Deshpande.

SQL Datasource And 'Apostrophes'

 I am not sure ...when to address names with an apostrophe...
1) On insertion to the database (using a  "Replace(LastName, "'", "''") 2)  or after they have been entered and they are to be searched for.
If scenario 1, can anyone provide the best way to do this...If scenario 2, how would that be worked into the SQL Datasource code below....
I have tried several variations with the times SQL Datasource to no avail....
I would appreciate any help !

C# Variable In SQL Datasource?

Apr 8, 2008

I have a single variable to be utilitized in my SQL Where clause...
Select *FROM projectsWhere project_id = @id
 How do I use this c# variable in the datasource?
 string TableID; TableID  = "192.AB";
 I know this is simple, but I figured I'd ask. I don't want to do a work around , like a hidden textbox with the value assigned, and then link the datasource to the tb control, seems extremely hackish.
