Help With Generating Reports And Saving To File.
Jun 27, 2007
Hi, I'm a first time user at reporting services and in dire need of some help, I'm having a real hard time finding the information I need.
I have made two reports in Business Intelligence Development Studio that access a sql database and I can deploy them and see them at http://localhost/reports etc.
What I wan't to do is be able to "trigger" the reports to be built from a schedule (e.g. every 8 hour on weekdays, every 12 hours on weekends but should be able to be changed) and after built to be saved to a html file.
I also need to set the sql query for the dataset before generating the report (select * from table where DateTimeType between This and That).
Anyway, I'm completely lost on how to achive this and would greatly appreciate and tips or pointers to where the information can be found.
Kindest Regards

during period of troubles connecting to Local Servers and Sites location i.e., to [URL], the place where all Reports are saved by default, I have continued to work on some Reports that have been saved to file system of my localhost/developing machine. But, upon recovery of http location, I can not see/open those files?
how to approach those files in order to open them in Report Builder 3.0 and thus, to "save as" them to the http location? Seems that Report Builder has chosen that location, by default, somehow.....

Hello,
SRS 2005 provides functionality for loading and rendering reports on fly using LoadReportDefinition and Render methods defined in ReportExecutionService webservice.
I was wondering if the same/similar behaviour can be accomplished in Reporting Services 2000.
Thanks in advance,
Kobi

Hi,
I am very new to RS and I have a scenario that I am not sure how to enact in the application I am building.
I have a report that generates remittances for an EFT payment file. The Remittances in this file are either printed or emailed to the company they are form. The output type and recipients email address are stored in the Db.
I would like the user to be able to click my Generate Remittance button, and instead of the report being rendered on screen, I would like it to automatically send all remittances marked for printing to the printer, and all marked email to be sent to the email address that is in the Db for that report.
I am thinking that my application will need to run the report twice, the first time reporting on only the ones needing printing (but then how do I automatically send the report to the users default printer without the report being rendered on screen), and then a second time reporting on the emailed ones and then automatically emailing them off to the individual recipients.
If anyone can shed some light on what I am needing to do, or maybe even suggest a better way to go about it, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Jason

I have a report that I pass parameters of a clientID. I run the report and export it to a .pdf file. I would like to be able to do this for multiple clients without manually having to enter the ID each time and exporting it.
I have thought about creating a report that calls this report so that I can pass in the clientID one at a time. The problem is trying to export each one.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

I've created a data flow where I have linked to an OLE DB Source then created a Flat File Destination. My file is now on my c: drive. I'd like to use that data to create a report, then print to a PDF. How would I do that?
Currently I was doing this in Access, but I am moving my processes to SSIS.

Hello,
I have a long running report (using a couple of sub-reports) that generates errors when trying to render the report during replication of the source data.
Specifically, I have a detailed product report displaying detailed sales information for a particular product and date. I then wrapped this report in a parent report so the business users can see multiple products for multiple days (i.e. all sales by department). The reports use a replicated database for their source (to off-load the traffic from the production POS database). If the users try and generate the report during the window when the database is being replicated, some of the €śsub-reports€? fail. If the users simply re-run the report, all of the data is there. Therefore, I know it€™s not a problem with the report, but rather with the data.
Since the report takes so long to render, simply re-running the report is not a very good solution. Another problem I have is that reporting services returns the generic €śError: sub-report could not be generated€? error, which causes the users to think there is something wrong with the report.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Or notify the users when the data is being updated?
Thoughts?
Thanks!
David.

Hi everyone, I'm very new to SQL and SQL Reporting Services.
However I've been given a task.
How do I save multiple reporting services reports onto a predetermined location on a users local pc? Are there tools/applications that can be used to push files onto the users local pc?
The application uses .NET but they've created reports using SQL Reporting Services. The user will select which report they want (out of 2). My task is to figure out how can we save those reports that they have selected onto their pc?
Thanks in advance

Hi
I am generating a Report by using SSRS. I am making using use of SSRS Report Viewer control for displaying the report. Which has an option to export the generated report in PDF format. Instead of displaying the report in by using report viewer I want to generate it directly in PDF format whenever that report is selected from the list of reports. So is there is any way to generate the report directly in PDF format which prompt a pop up for opening or saving the PDF?
Thanks,
Shailesh

Hi ya,
I'm generating a flat file from SSIS package and i'm having some problems.
My package contains this Data Flow which is connecting to a Database and importing the records. I did design a script component since the file I generate has some padding.
Here is the code for the component so that you really understand what i'm trying to achieve over here.
Dim toPadTo As Int32
Dim myDate As String
Dim MultVal As Int64
Dim myMonth As Int16, myMonth2 As String
myMonth = CShort(Row.TransDate.Month)
If myMonth <= 9 Then
myMonth2 = myMonth.ToString.PadLeft(2, CChar("0"))
Else
myMonth2 = myMonth.ToString
End If
myDate = CStr(Row.TransDate.Date.Day) + myMonth2 + CStr(Row.TransDate.Year)
MultVal = CInt(Row.TransAmount * 100)
Dim myChkLength As Int16 = CShort(MultVal.ToString.Length)
Dim myCombine As String = CStr(MultVal) & CStr(myDate)
Dim myCombine2 As String = CStr(MultVal) & CStr(myDate)
Select Case myChkLength
Case 4
toPadTo = 30 - (myCombine.ToString.Length)
Case 5
toPadTo = 30 - (myCombine.ToString.Length - 1)
Case 6
toPadTo = 30 - (myCombine.ToString.Length - 2)
Case 7
toPadTo = 30 - (myCombine.ToString.Length - 3)
End Select
' + myDate.ToString.Length - 1))
Row.myConvert = myCombine2.PadLeft(toPadTo, CChar("0"))
Dim MyNewRow As String = myCombine2.PadLeft(toPadTo, CChar("0"))
Dim ChkSign As Int16
ChkSign = CShort(Math.Sign(CDec(MyNewRow)))
If ChkSign = 1 Then
Row.myConvert = MyNewRow.PadLeft(2, CChar("+"))
ElseIf ChkSign = -1 Then
Row.myConvert = MyNewRow.PadLeft(2, CChar("-"))
Else
Row.myConvert = MyNewRow.PadLeft(2, CChar("+"))
End If
End Sub
Obviously i don't think this is the best approach hence i'm asking? not to mention the sort of problem i'm getting with the + and - insertion part of the code.
To give you an example of how the value would be:
Actual value: 159.23
After transformation it should be like this : +00000000000015923
Depending on the amount x no zeros should be inserted.
Any other way to achieve it? Apart from this I also need to generate a sequence no with some string at the end of the ragged file. How would i go for it ?
Cheers

I'm trying to generate a DTS Package with VB.Net using the Microsoft DTSPackage Object Library and
and the Microsoft DTSDataPump Scripting Object Library
I have to load csv files into SQL tables.
I could generate both a SQL connection and a FlatFile connection and the transformationtask.
When I look at the transformationtask and click on the transformation tab I get this error
"Incomple file format information"
The problem is I don't find where I could set the FlatFile connection properties like "Text Qualifier" and
"row delimiter"
I tried this but it still shows CRLF as row delimiter when I look at the generated DTS Package
Dim oConnection As DTS.Connection2
Dim package As DTS.Package2
Dim filename As String
filename = "myfilename.csv"
oConnection = package.Connections.New("DTSFlatFile")
oConnection.Name = filename
oConnection.ConnectionProperties.Item("Row Delimiter").Value = vbTab

I am storing my Compact Database .sdf file in Team Foundation Server while we develop on it. It is really frustrating that it is stored as a binary file. (This means that only one developer at a time can effectively work on it.)
I have yet to find a way to script objects from the .sdf file. Is there a way? I would like to find a way to store this file as SQL so that my team can work on it simultaneously and scripting it and storing it seems the best way.
If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them.

Hi All,
I need to know how to create a AScii 7 bit flat file using Integration services. I do have basic charecters in the flat files - only other charecters required are a pipe (|), which is used as delimeter and additionally it will have line feed (LF) which is used as row delimeter.
Please let me know if this is possible.

Hi All,
I am using MS SQL 2005 and using Integration Services I have created FTP task to create a txt file with the required information on to a FTP location. But I need the encoding of the file to be set to AScii 7 bit mode rather than unicode or Ansi-Latin I - which are 16 bit. I tried creating the file first in unicode first & then converting it Ascii, but this made me to loose some data from the generated file. Looks like this doesnt work out and my attempts generating AScii 7 bit flat file is failing. I need solution to URGENTLY otherwise I will have think of some alternative other than Integration services. Egarly waiting for any responses!!

hello,I am building a web page in asp.net 2.0 and i'm looking for a way to save various files uploaded by users (such as doc, pdf, cs, txt .... whatever). Obviously the normal way would be to store it on the filesystem of the web server (or any other middleware server).But I am asking if there is a way to store these files in the database, and not affect too much of the performance of the web page?I know a picture can be stored easily, but what about all the other file types? I would appreciate if someone can spead light of the subject.Thanks,Tranquil.

so i wrote this script and its pretty sweet (tara helped me before on this one) but now, for some STRANGE reason and its been reported by users the following:
the script for example dumps "first name, last name"
when we save the results as a CSV it looks good in notepad...
"first name, last name"
but we kept getting some kind of stange issues when we tried to dump that CSV data into another program to use... so i opened the CSV file in command prompt to see what it really looks like and it is actually "f i r s t n a m e , l a s t n a m e" with all these unnecessary spaces! why is it saving the CSV with spaces in it when my script is nothing of the sort? it was working fine last week, no changes were made to the script but now the CSV's are rendering those weird spaces.

I am brand new to SQL. Have limited coding experience w/ Visual Basic and database ops w/ Access.
I have come into possession of a SQL 2005 database. The problem is that the designer tried to re-invent the wheel and code a very very poor LMS back end for tracking and reporting. I would like, if possible, to save the database and as far as I am aware - should be able to import into Access and generate statistics and reports to my hearts content.
I have tried w/out success to save the database going through SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Any help or information that could be provided would be appreciated. Any additional information that I can provide, please let me know.
Thanks - Will
