Getting Column Headers
Apr 12, 2006Is there any way to retrieve the column header name along with your query data?

View 2 RepliesI am creating a report in SSRS which has the following criteria:
- Row 1 (parent) is 'Product'
- Row 2 (child) is  'Feed'
- Columns are date. Â I have 5 dates showing at any one time across the top. Â The date field is set up as a parameter so depending on the date the user selects, the report will show that date on the end column and then the 4 days prior to that in the other columns. Â Â
 - Data is the number of records.
I have a sub total on the Product and the report is collapsed on Product as default.
What i'm stuck on is trying to insert a column at the very end that will show the variance between the last two dates. Â So the difference between the date the user selected (@date parameter) and the day before that.Â
hello,
Just curious if we can supress column headers in SQL Server..
example:
create table Empmaster
(
empid int identity(1,1),
empname varchar(10),
empsalary numeric
)
insert Empmaster(empname,empsalary)values('Imran',5000)
insert Empmaster(empname,empsalary)values('Raja',5000)
insert Empmaster(empname,empsalary)values('Ram',8000)
Sql:
Select empname, empsalary from Empmaster
would have a result set like (this is not an exact result from analyser)
empname empsalary
----------- ------------
Imran 5000
Raja 5000
Ram 8000
But I was wondering if I could somehow make it display
Imran 5000
Raja 5000
Ram 8000
I actually implementation of this is something vast, but I have illustrated a very simple example to explain what I want to achieve. Might seem a very simple 1 line solution, but I haven't been able to find it. .If ther is any documentation that might help please reply and point me to that..
thank you

I am developing a matrix report in SRS. In columns group there are several values. When report runs they apper in any order based on the first record in row group. I want colums to apeear in specific order all the time. For example the column sequence in one out put is Follwup 1, Initial , Followup 2. I want to column header to be in order of Initial, Folloup 1, Followup 2.
Can someone help?
I have a report looking something like this:
Field 1 Field 3 Field 5
RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1
RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2
Field 2 Field 4 Field 6
RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1
RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2
It extends along a fair number of pages, and I'm currently using the "# of columns = 3" in the Report properties --> Layout section in order to make it span over 3 columns instead of the usual 1. I'm using a table in which the random info fields are the repeating values, and the Field 1,2,3,4,etc are included in the list control, but not part of the physical table itself.
My question stems from a couple of chunks of data which basically extend over the course of 1.5 pages (yep. There's enough to fill about 4.5 columns worth.)
I currently have
Field 1 RandomInfo50 RandomInfo100
RandomInfo1 RandomInfo51 RandomInfo101
Randominfo2 RandomInfo52 RandomInfo102
etc.... etc.... etc....
-----NewPage----
RandomInfo150 Field 2
Randominfo151 NewRandomInfo1
RandomInfo152 NewRandomInfo2
etc...
What I'm looking to do is have "Field 1" appear at the top of each column whenever a larger chunk of data forces itself into multiple columns, or even multiple columns on multiple pages. I have this nasty feeling it's something silly and blatantly obvious I'm missing...
Any thoughts?
I need to write a sql statement to retrieve column headers and rows from 2 different tables.
E.g.:
row1: EMP column list, tag: emp
row2: DEPT column list, tag: Dept
row3: EMP columns data
row4: DEPT columns data
And the data sorted by deptno column
E.g.:
EMP, Deptno, empno, ename, age, ...,
DEPT, Deptno, ename, loc
EMP, 10, 7548, Justin, 43,....
DEPT, 10, marketing, california
EMP, 20, 7345, Carol,26,....
DEPT, 20, finance, New York
EMP, ....
DEPT,...
.....

My matrix column labels do not appear at all at the lowest level column grouping when viewing in IE7
All is ok when viewing the pdf, or when viewing using the preview tab.
Is this an ie7 bug?
when paging down or across in a matrix based report, it would be nice for headings (row and column) to float (ie not disappear) with the position of the report. Is this possible in RS?

I can do it through dynamic sql using Execute sp_executesql
Is there any workaround except this?
Hi there,
I'm trying to implement Interactive Soring on the column headers in a matrix in a report. Is it actually possible to do this? I've read several internet posts and stories of implementing the Interactive Sorting in the upper-left corner of the matrix, but this is not what I want, I want to implement it on the column headers .
The goal I'm trying to achieve is to give the user the possibillity to click on a column header to sort the rows below in asc- or descending direction.
Please tell me if this is possible, because all my efforts have not been succesfull! If it's possible, please provide the solution to do this.
If you need more information, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks in advance,

I have a report which runs for last 12 months data. Since this is going to be last 12 months the column headers change every month. How can we implement this with dynamic column headers in the dataset?

I want to have two lines of column headers.( with 7 columns in parent columns header)
and 7 columns in child column header.
The first column header will show a parent record.
And after the parent record i want to show the next child related horizontal column headers and will show all child record related to the above parent record.
its a one to many: 1 parent record and below all child records for that parent record.
can i use subreports controls to show all child records of the parent.
Thank you very much for the information.
I am using table object to present report.

Hello,
I am trying to do the following:
I have been given an MS Access Database that has a table with columns
I have to create a spreadsheet that will have the data stored in the column header as a row (essentially we are creating a spreadsheet that records all of the different columns in all of the different tables in the MS Access DB).
Any suggestions???

If a single row of data spans a page then the column header is not repeated until the next row on the next page.
Is there a way to overcome this?
I want to create a raw SQL resultset for outputting to Excel with some artificial headers transposed over the top of the 2nd part of the Union's column names. The first part of the Union will be the Headers. Like this, the space to the left of the topmost columns is preferably empty ....
COL 1    COL2     COL3      COL4 etc.                        BEH                            BIG       BPL etc.

I just want the text above as a 3 line header and there won't be any values obviously. Then the 2nd query will be joined to the above with a Union all. The 2nd query has all the same column names as what will be given in the first set above. What is the SQL Syntax for doing so? Do I have to use a from clause?
I have excel files where the column headers I care about are on line 5, and the actual data doesn't begin until line 6. Other than deleting the first 4 lines, which is impractical, how can I get the Excel Connection Manager to import the data correctly? I was able to do this under DTS, so I have to imagine it's possible.
Thanks!
My problem is specific to the ReportViewer control. The report displays correctly in every other way (ssrs server viewer, visual studio preview, visual studio 'Run', etc)The aspx page hosting the control has two controls, the reportviewer control (assembly 10.0.0.0), and a scriptmanager control asyncrendering = 'true' and processingmode = 'remote'.So the columns are not 'always visible' with the reportviewer but they are with every other renderer that i've tried.
The report i'm testing is just a simple table with a couple groupings (built using the wizard). To enable the fixed headers I went to the groupings view and changed the "FixedData" property of the first Static member to true per instructions.
I have a table which has few columns as Numeric value. I need to export the output into a csv file as a report with column headers. I have used bcp command. Here column name and Column Header name is the same. The BCP query which i have used is Below
bcp "SelectCompanyCode,MonthId,ActualityCode,CompanyCounterpartCode,LocalProductCode,LocalCustomerBillTo,
DestinationCountryCode,LocalCostCenterCode,LocalGLAccountCode,LocalProjectCode,TXCurrencyCode,
TXAmountYTD,LocalCurrencyCode,LocalAmountYTD,SourceSystemFromTable(nolock)" queryout D: est.csv -c -t ";" -r -S -T
Is there any way to export bcp with header or any other command to generate the csv file.
Hi, this is probably a simple question but I just can't figure it out. I'm using SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 sp1.
I'm trying to design a report that displays a particular embedded image on the first page, and then a different one on every subsequent page. I.e full, fancy company logo on the first page, and a trimmed down version on every other. In Crystal, I would have simply used the Report Header and Page Header sections to achieve this - easy.
However, in SQL Reporting Services, there is only a Page Header section - therefore whatever I place in the Page Header shows on every page. Now, I know how to stop it displaying on the first page, but I don't know how to display the other image instead.
I read in a support forum that it is possible to do this by "placing report items above or below your data regions" but I can't get it to work.
Grateful for any assistance.

I have a single table that consist of 4 columns. Entity, ParamName, ParamsValue and ParamiValue. This table stores normalized Late Fee related parameters for apartments. The Entity field contains a code that identifies the apartment complex. The ParamName in a textual field that contains the name of the parameter that the other 2 fields define the value for; ParamsValue and ParamiValue. If the Late Fee parameter (as named in ParamName is something numerical then the value for that parameter can be found in ParamiValue else its in ParamsValue.
I don't know if 'Pivot' is the correct term to use for describing what I am trying to do because I've looked at the Pivot examples and I don't see how that will work for this. Using the Table and data as provided below, how would I construct a query so that I get 1 row per Entity in which the columns are the ParamsValue or ParamiValue for the ParamName listed in the column header (for the query)?
Below is the DDL to create the table and populate it.
USE [DBA_UTIL]
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PARAMEXAMPLE](
[Entity] [varchar](16) NULL,
[Code]....
we are running 2014 enterprise. A couple of column headings (even with smaller font) are a little tall, as much as 6 "lines".   All headings in the respective matrices are aligned vertically as "bottom". When I save the report to excel, these taller headings get chopped off visually in their excel cell.  The cell contains the entire heading. It appears that the second "line" of the heading is the one that is most visible in excel.Â
How do I get these to be saved so user will see entire heading when opening excel doc? In the first matrix there is a text box directly above the matrix and only one row of column headings. In the second there is a higher column group heading containing month name above the problem headings.Â
I'm no dummy when it comes to this stuff but for the life of me I can't figure out how (if it is possible) to get column headers to go when exporting data. Here is the syntax I'm using:
BCP "select ATSCLAIMNUMBER, ALTERNATECLAIMNUMBER, LNAME , FNAME, MNAME, convert(varchar(10),LOSSDATE,101), convert(varchar(10),ERNOTIFIEDDATE,101), convert(varchar(10),CLOSINGDATE,101), STATUSCODE, INDPAID,MEDPAID,REHABPAID,EXPPAID,LEGALPAID,TOTALP AID,INDFUTURERES,MEDFUTURERES,REHABFUTURERES,EXPFU TURERES,LEGALFUTURERES,TOTALFUTURERES,EXCESSRECOVE RY1,EXCESSRECOVERY2,EXCESSRECOVERY3,EXCESSRECOVERY 4,EXCESSRECOVERY5,EXCESSRECOVERY,OTHERRECOVERY1,OT HERRECOVERY2,OTHERRECOVERY3,OTHERRECOVERY4,OTHERRE COVERY5,OTHERRECOVERY FROM ##MMAACTUARY" queryout C:mma03182004.TXT /c /t, /r /U demo /P demo /S ATSDEVATS2K
It spits out the file fine. This is all built with dynamic SQL and needs to email the file which is does perfectly. My only problem is that there are no headers which I can't have. Any suggestions?
Does anyone know how to incorporate header and trailer info in the text output from a DTS task. The SQL I'm using in the task works well when outputting to a text file on the server. However, when trying to incorporate header and trailer info the process fails. I tried doing it using SQL but the DTS transformation process is looking for fields to transform when I'm trying to output a 3 line header and 2 line trailer with the output rows in between. Has anyone done this before? Your help would be greatly asppreciated.
Here is an example of the SQL that fails:
*** Trying to get header info here ***
select 'Header'
select 'filename.txt'
select convert(char(11),getdate(),101)
*** Main SQL runs here ***
select
a.field1,
a.field2,
...
from tblA a JOIN tblB b ON b.someid = a.someid
JOIN tblC c ON c.someid = a.someid
where a.someval >= '2003'
*** Trying to get trailer info here ***
select 'Trailer'
select ''
select count(id) FROM tblA
I wanted to show header titles for each group of accounts. Ho would I be able to do that. The query that I have right now is:
select * from apcopah
where substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1624'
and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01'
or substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1631'
and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01'
or substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1632'
and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01'
I would like it to look like this:
Utilities
Ap_control_acct date_vendor_inv
1624 2001-10-01
1624 2001-12-01
Audit Fees
Ap_control_acct date_vendor_inv
1631 2002-09-01
1631 2002-10-01
Is this possible?
Hi all,
I am sure this is an easy question but I cant work it out.
I need to output the results of a table to file. I have set up a job to do this, as it needs to be updated every night.
I just do a select * from table
Howerver I dont want the coloum names at the top or the -------'s or the (1) rows bla bla
Bit.
Any ideas?

Dave Dunckley says there is a law for the rich and a law for the poor and a law for
Dirty Davey.
How do I put information only at the top of a page and have it change whenever a group occurs.
I want to do something like this. Have this on the top of every page:
Country: current country
State: current state
City: current city
There is a group on country, state and city. Whenever city changes the next page will display a new city. Whenever state changes the next page will display the new state in the header.
I have already put Country, State, and City into their own group headers. However, if either of them change in the middle of the page then the group header repeats. I have group header repeat on so I can see it on each page. If I choose the Page break at start then it breaks but I don't want it to break. I want it to run on the same page if it passes a group and then have the next page display relevant information for the group.
Putting it in the table header works as far as keeping them all on the top of the page but it doesn't change when a grouping ends.
Please assist me in anyway you can.
Thanks,
Sarah
I€™m trying to find a way to export all data from a table in to a csv file with a header. I€™m not concerned at this point with dynamic headers (that would be nice but at this point I€™m not picky). I would just like to find a way to programmatically drop a table to a csv file.
use tempdb
go
create view vw_csvexport
as
select
'"' + convert(varchar(50), Name) + '"',
'"' + convert(varchar(50), ID) + '"'
from TestHeaderTable
union all
SELECT top 100 percent
Name = '"' + name + '"',
ID = '"' + convert(varchar(50), ID) + '"'
FROM TestDataTable
go
DECLARE @bcpCommand varchar(2000)
SET @bcpCommand = 'bcp tempdb..vw_export out
c: est002.txt -c -T -S SERVER'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @bcpCommand
I get this error when I run this query
Create View or Function failed because no column name was specified for column 1.
If I€™m going about this the completely wrong direction let me know so I can get heading the right direction to get this done.

I'm new to Reporting Services, but am familiar with other reporting tools. My question is, is there really no way to reference a field in a page header? If so, I suppose you could repeat some header information on subsequent pages from the detail section of the report using a text box, but how is that done because when I check the property box "Repeat report item with data region on every page" nothing happens. What is the best way to repeat header information on every page that needs to contain field values/information?
Thanks for any help you can offer.
I have a .txt as such:
fname,lname,email
"Kelly","Reynold","kelly@reynold.com"
"John","Smith","bill@smith.com"
"Sara","Parker","sara@parker.com"
When I run this:
BULK INSERT TmpStList FROM 'D:filesTxtFile1.txt' WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = '","', FIRSTROW=2, ROWTERMINATOR = '
')
I only get the first 2 rows imported:
"JohnSmith bill@smith.com"
"SaraParkersara@parker.com"
How can I make it start the import on the second row?
