I would like to have a report that globally sets the visibility (or expanding and unexpanding) of a group. Right now, I have the + and - signs for a group, but have to select each on individually in the report.
I need to expand tempdb database. The users keep getting this error when they try to do a sort: SQL Server message(1510): state 2 Sort failed. Out of space or locks in database 'tempdb'
Also in the error log I am getting these errors: Error 1105, Severity: 17, State: 1 Can't allocate space for object '-641' in database 'tempdb'because the 'system' segment is full. If you ran out of space in Syslogs, dump the transaction log. Otherwise use ALTER DATABASE or sp_extendsegment to increase the size of the segment.
What I am wondering is if expanding tempdb will fix the problem, or is there another fix that I should be looking at.
Any direction you could give me on this would be appreciated. I have very little experience with SQL 6.5
I've created a report with drill downs that are hidden initially. While viewing the report in preview, I'll expand the drill down to see the data.
If I go and print the report, the report is printed as collapsed (which is the initial setting) rather than expanded (which i expanded in the preview).
Is there a way to print in the "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" kinda way expanding and collapsing drill downs?
I posted last year about getting and Expand All/Collapse All link working in reports, and it does work perfectly for on-demand reporting. I was able to get these working using the boolean report parameter and then the Jump to Report option going back to itself changing that parameter.
The issue that I have just discovered is that when a report with these Expand All/Collapse All links are in a report snapshot, clicking those links will cause it to re-render the report from the datasource at the time the link is clicked. This is an issue for one of the datasources we are using because the data is always changing, so when it goes back to re-render the counts and data returned are completely different then they were when the snapshot was first created. As time goes on the data will no longer even be in the datasource since it can only maintain 4 months of data.
Is there another way to get all detail groups to expand/collapse at once that does not require the report to be completely re-rendered from the datasource?
I am trying to deploy a package to SQL. However, when I open Integration services I can not expand MSDB folder. Error is; SQL Server specified in SSIS service configuration is not present or available.... Login time expired .....(MsDTSSrvr)
I have found post here that says MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file needs to be changed from
I tried MyServerName - does not work. I also tried value from connecting to Database Engine ( MyServerNameSQL2K5LOCAL) - does not help either.
What am I doing wrong?
Also, I need some documentation on deploying packgaes using File System.
I have saved Copy of the Package as File System location.
When I doubleclick the .dtsx file, Connection Manager holds my local SQL info. Goal is to deploy this to Development and other environments. Can this be handled some other way so I do not have to modify this file on every environment?
Also, this Execute Utility Package says at the top to use this utility to run SSIS on local computer.
So far, help on MSoft sites did not really help me a lot.
this is what I am using:

I was wondering if anyone can help me out with this. Is there any way that you can have a document map in SQL Reporting Services expand on load, or if there is a way to programmatically set the Document Map nodes to be expanded when a report is generated.
We have a person who CAN connect to a named instance in SQL Server Management Studio. There is nothing in the log for a failed login for him. However, when he tries to expand the Tables folder under the only user database in the instance, he gets the error: Failed to retrieve data for this request (Microsoft.SQLServer.SmoEnum). Additional Information: An exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. Select permission denied on object 'extended_properties',database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'(Microsoft SQL Server, Error:229).
He is trying to expand the Tables folder under a database named ADSALLDB. He can see the folder as well as the other folders (i.e. Views, Synonyms, Programmability,etc.), but can't expand any of them. He can expand the folders under the system databases.
Other uses set up just like him can connect. He is set up with read/write access to the database ADSALLDB. He can expand the system databases.
This is a named instance in a 6 node cluster. SQL Server 2005 SP1 Build Level 2221.
Has anyone had an issue with SQL Server not being able to expandagainst a RAID 5 file system? My current configuration is that theserver is started and stopped using the local system account. I haveonly one database (besides the master, model,etc)on the server. Whathas happend to me several times is that the primary database inquestion try's to expand the main datafile for the database (.mdf). Isetup the database to not expand automatically initially so that I canbe sure that we have enough file system space. Becuase of problems withthe application I decided to automatically expand. The other day thedevelopers came to me indicating that the databse was full and neededto be expanded. Knowing that the database was in automatic expandingmore I was surprise to hear this. I went into EM and attempted toexpand first the log and it would not indicating that it there was anissue in attempting to do so. I have never heard of a database notbeing able to expand. I ran DBCC's, etc and it came up clean. I triedto back the database up to disk and it would not backup. I finally hadto rename the datbase and rebuild it using DTS and scripts. I thoughtI had fixed it only to find out today that it (again) won't expand. Irenamed the datbase and then tried taking an older backup file andrestore it and it would not restore. This problem seems to be relatedto the file system but how I do not know.So, I am ready to run rebuild master but I have sone this before onlyto have this come back on me. I am at a complete loss. In the past Ihave had to rebuild the entire server and database from scratch. Theonly problem is that this has been done 3 times now with no completesolution or explaination. If any of you have seen this type ofbehavior and know whats going on please, please let me know what youthink the case and solution is!
I have a report that is grouping phone calls by "Category" (Outgoing, Incoming, Voicemail, etc). When the report is rendered, each category (along with totals) is shown and the details (each actual call) are hidden. Using toggling, I allow the user to burst open any category to view all of the call details.
I join the query for this report so that even if a category has 0 calls for the day, it is still shown. When expand a category with no calls I get a blank record (as I should, because there are no call details).
The question I have is ... Can I have the toggle be conditional? Can I have the ability to toggle thr group only when there are call details? Can I have the + to the left of the category name not be shown?
Thanks in advance for any help! Merry Christmas!!!
On one of my reports, the +/- for expand/collapse of groups is reversed -- i.e. when the group is expanded it displays "+" and when the group is collapsed it displays "-". The display of the document map is correct.
I have seen a few posts in several forums about SQL Reporting Services 2005 not supporting the expand all / toggle all / or show all feature that many of us require for our report clients. A simple method I use is to create a report parameter names ShowAll. In the properties I have the following: Name is ShowAll / Data type is String / Prompt is Show All? and the Allowo blank value box is checked. In available values I chose Non-queried and in Label and Value I placed Yes - Collapsed and No - Expanded then in Default values I put Collapsed
Then on the field's initial visibility property, I changed the default from collapsed to expression and added the following:
I have a db-query that returns quite a few rows which I must show in a table. At initial load the report only shows the row group heading for the detailed data, and when clicked the detailed data for a group expands.
My problem is that reporting services assumes that when collapsed it should summarize everything in each column and display it.
Here is an illustration of the problem.
First the detailed view of my data (Notice the 5th and 6th rows which are simply the values in the 1st through 4th rows divided into groups - and the "Total" row shows the actual total for Row 1 Group Header: [-] "Row 1 Group Header" "Detail data 1" "10" "Detail data 2" "10" "Detail data 3" "4" "Detail data 4" "6" "Row 1 group 1" "20" "Row 1 group 2" "10" "Total" "30" The detailed view is just as I want it - no problems there.
However, when the detailed view is collapsed, reporting services calculates the sum for the column - which is 90 - not 30 as is the actual total: [+] "Row 1 Group Header" "90"
Is there any way I can redefine the formula/insert filters used for calculating the "collapsed-total" for each column when the row is collapsed? Or maybe simply prevent it from showing a "collapsed-total" altogether? Or can you think of another way to structure the data so the "collapsed-totals" gives me the actual value (30)?
I thought about splitting the values into a column for each data-group, so that I'd have a column for the "Detail data n" values, a 2nd column for the "Row 1 group n" values and a 3rd column for the "Total" values - this would yield correct "collapsed-total" values. But is really a plan B - I really do not want to do that unless it is the only way out of my dilemma.
subject says it all -- is it possible to automatically expand the identity specification node in table properties for the Management Studio or VS2005 diagram mode? when creating a DB, it seems ridiculous that for EVERY table I have to add an extra click to get to just one more clickable item that ought to be exposed by default.
Yet another newbie question here in my quest to learn reporting services.
Is there a property I can set to automatically expand all drill-downs when a user goes to print a report? As it is now all the drill-downs remain collapsed when the user goes to print, which is problematic on large reports where there may be many records between groupings (users may expand one group containing 1000's of records, and then decide to simply print everything -- but they'll only get the expanded data -- I'd like to expand everything automatically and have it all print.)
In my report i have more than 10 sub reports each should be displayed when we click on some label but my requirement is to expand all the sub reports at a time or collapse the sub reports.URL.....problem here is it is a genius solution working beautifully in my local machine but in the client server if i click on the Expand/Collapse radio button it is asking for the parameters again.
I need to expand my page width and height. The report designer and report viewer allows me to do that. The expanded page does not export to the PDF Format. I am stuck width 6 1/4 x 8/12 for the PDF format. I am using the windows report viewer.
I have a problem with collapsing of groups. It seems that the reports saves the expand/collapse state of groups between renderings ... bug or feature?
In my report I have a dataset which contains some numerical data over time.
The report is designed to show data from a selected month as well as January to selected month. A parameter is used to select the month.
The presentation looks like the following: Company total Department Employee Employee ... Department Emplyee ... ... The employees have their initial state set to hidden, with their respective department as toggler.
This works perfectly ... within Visual Studio. When I deploy this report to my web server strange things happens.
Fx 1) If I expand one department to see the data for the employees for may and then decide to look at data from another month. 2) I change the month parameter and click 'View report' to render the report again. 3) The report renders as it should. All departments are collapsed. 4) If I then expand some other department than before, both the newly selected department and the old one are expanded ... a behavior that is not that practical
It seems that the report saves the expand/collapse state for the groups between renderings. So when I click expand for the second time it expands the one I just clicked and the department which was expanded before rendering.
I have created a "parent" table with various columns and added an extra detail row to drop a nested subreport into the table passing parameters into the sub in order to obtain the child subreport. The problem is that the the while I can line up the columns in the sub report with the parent report,
I observe something like this:
parent columns:
a b c d e f
child columns
a b c d e f
The problem is in the last column of the parent "f" it appears stretched out for some reason-about an inch even though can grow is set to false.
Its like the child is forcing the parent's last column to expand yet when i observe the border around the table in the child the "f" is clearly more narrow than the parent's f despite my matching the column widths in the layout exactly the same . In preview mode, the parent's last column is extended width-about an inch more was added. Note I tested it with No data in the child's last column and it still expands the parent column by that inch.
Also note when I dropped the subreport into the parent report I'm merging the cells on the detail row that the subreport fits across columns a, b, c, d, e, f.
So even though the subreports data lines up properly under a, b, c, d, and e; the parent's "f" still expands outward.
Any clues or suggests on what I should consider changing. I'm stumped.
Is there a way to expand/collapse all items in the documentmap ?
I know there is an option DocumentMapCollapsed but this is to collapse/expand the documentmap panel. I would like to control the collapse state of the items into the document map ...
I have a 2.8G SQL 7 database with 1.6G used space. I want to shrink it to 1.8G, but after I issued the 'DBCC srhinkfile(datafile, 1800)', it didn't shrink the file, instead it expanded to 2.7G used space? I tried on a test server, the command worked every time although the time to complete the task tended to increase every time.
I did the DBCC DBREINDEX (fill factor 90) and updated usage, the size didn't change. DBCC CHECKDB, CATELOG AND SHOWCONTIG were all performed and there wasn't any error or fragmentation.
Now I'm wondering what's the actual size of my database, 1.6G or 2.7G? If there's a way that I can get back close to my original used sized, then I can try to shink the file again. Any comment is welcome. Thanks advance.
I have a report with some groups which can all be expanded/collapsed by clicking on a textbox with an action attached to it. The example I used can be found here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=600583&SiteId=1
But I want to hide the row containing this textbox (or the textbox itself) on the actual printed report. Is there any report item that can tell me if the report is in preview phase, or can it be solved in any other way?
has anyone out there found a way to get the best of both recursive hierarchy and drill down in the same report, ie without needing to know how many levels there are in your hierarchy, still being able to report them like a tree view with collapse and expand capability at each level?
How do I programmatically check a row group's Visibility or Expand/Collapse flag in a matrix table? For example, I have a matrix table contains the following groups:
Row groups: Facility --> Category Type --> Category Column groups --> year, quarter, month
I want to be able to programmatically update the table content if Category rows are not visible (Category Type row group is collapsed).
create table #test (id int ,color varchar(20) ) insert into #test (id, color) values (1, 'blue'),(2, 'red'),(3,'green'),(4,'red,green')
if I wanted to run a query to select any records that had red in the color field, how would I do that? Not the one with only red, but a query that would give me both record number 2 and record number 4.
Hello, If I have a report that includes a page header, the report viewer will render the report at the full width, but if I hide the page header and show only the body it will use the absolute width of the report.
I have a 7" wide report, with .75" borders set on each side.
Interactive & Print size are set to 8.5x11 Changing these sizes has no effect on the behavior of the viewer, which appears to ignore them.
When I view this report in the local viewer the contents fill the window if there is no page header. If I enable the page header then the report is drawn at 8.5" wide, leaving a _big_ white border on the right side. Any comments or workarounds that anyone knows? I know the local viewer is not a standard configuration (at least it seems) but it is what we need to use.Thanks,//Andrew
I have an interesting problem to report that I'm hoping someone will be able to assist in solving.
I have a report that contains a table inside of a list. When I view this report on my local machine via Visual Studio, everything appears normal, the columns are all the correct size. However, as soon as I publish this report to the report server and attempt to view it via Report Manager, one of the columns expands horizontally!
From all of the documentation I have read, I understand that Reporting Services does not provide the ability for columns to expand horizontally, only vertically. Can anyone help explain why this is happening or a possible solution to turn this automatic expanding off?
In SSMS, I connect Object Explorer to a partially contained database using a contained user login with password. This user has a database role of dbdatareader. When I try to expand the Tables in the database, I get the error:
The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'extended_properties', database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 229)
Is there a way to set permissions for the contained user so that this could be done?
