Hide/Show Table Based On Parameter Selection!!!???
Apr 28, 2008
I'd like to hide/show a table based on selected parameters. In the current setup I have a matrix and two tables underneath that need to be displayed from time to time. First of I use a multi-value parameter called "Lieferart". Depending on the parameter I have set the visibility of the two tables with the following expression:
=iif(Parameters!lieferart.Value(0) like "Nagel%", False, True)
This expression doesn't work though, any ideas??? I am also unsure about what I have to do If multiple values from the parameter list are selected as Parameters!lieferart.value(0) doesn't necessarily need to have a label like "Nagel" included...
I have requirement where first I need to show only one report parameter. Based on user selection I need to prompt or show the user another report parameter.
Say suppose I have 3 parameters. User selects first value in first parameter I should not show the other 2 parameters. If user selects second value in first parameter I should show second parameter and hide third parameter. There is no relationship between these 2 parameters except user selection. Similarly if user third value in first parameter then I should show third parameter and hide second parameter.
Is this possible? I can not see any Visible property for report parameters.
I have some sensitive and non-sensitive info/fields in one of my reports. Is there a way to hide/show the info based on the logged in user? or do I have to create separte reports for each type of info like one for sensitive and another one for non-sensitive info.
I am using reporting services 2012, Can we make visibility of report parameter dynamic, ie can we make parameter visible or hide on certain condition or its visibility depends on other parameters Is this feature available in any other updated version of ssrs?
Im trying to create a drop down parameter whereby if i select a certain field, a different dropdown will be filtered off only the relevant selections, is this possible.
I created a report with a school parameter for all our schools in SQL report. The school parameter gets it's value from a query. The report is generated based on the selection made by the user. If user choose school "A", report is generated for school "A" and if user choose school "B" report is generated for school "B".
I am using a centralized user id and password for all users. A report URL (report link) is sent to user to access the report. Currently, from the school parameter (school drop-down list) users from any school may/can choose report for other schools other than theirs schoos. The content of the report is sensitive and we do not want anyone to see anyone else report.
I want to create a user based security, so based on the user id for school "A", he/she will only be able to see school "A" report but nothing else.
I was trying to accomplish this by creating linked report but it does not look realistic to create a folder for each school on the report server (which means about 180 or more folder for all our schools ). Does anyone else have better suggestions what can/should I do?
I have 2 tables in my report, a multi value parameter (tp_title) is passed to the report. I am trying to hide the first tablix with this expression in the visiblity option of the tablix properties.
=IIF(Parameters!tp_Title.value = "Financial Years" or Parameters!tp_Title.value="ALL", False,True )
I get the error: The Hidden expression for the tablix ‘Tablix1’ contains an error: Overload resolution failed because no Public '=' can be called with these arguments: 'Public Shared Operator =(a As String, b As String) As Boolean': Argument matching parameter 'a' cannot convert from 'Object()' to 'String'.
When I render the report. How the tablix can be made invisible based on the parameter?
Now i have master Table for a device Utility. There is a attribute called "Device Type " in the table. Every Device Type has specific Device Attributes associate with it .

So how can I do this ??? How to form a realtion between the tables,... ????
I am using Reporting Services 2000. If you find out that Reporting Services 2005 would resolve this issue, please lemme know also. But I want to mention that I would prefer a way to fix this without changing Reporting Services versions.
I have a table that has a group on ProductTypes. This group is set to PageBreak at end. What I need to do is to conditionally hide an entire column based on the current group's ProductType.
Can you help me figure this one out ? I've tried everything I found on the net, especially everything on this page : http://blogs.msdn.com/chrishays/rss.xml

I am doing report development against OLAP. I have Parameter1 and then my second parameter is a boolean (True/False). I want to show Parameter 3/Paramater 4 based on selection of Param2 (So, if true, show Param3, if false, show Param 4) and please remember we are doing this in a sequence.
Is this even possible in SSRS 2005? If yes, how the hell do I achieve it.
PS: Sorry for cursing, but I am about to lose my mind. Any help is much much appreciated.
We were having a standards meeting today at my company and we talked about the show/hide details button in the UI. We hide reports all the time because they are sub-reports and aren't meant to be run on their own. If we can't hide the "Show Details" button and we can't ban the user with security from running the sub-report because they need to run the Main report which runs the sub-report, then what do we do?
I'd think we have the have the ability to to hide things, or least a creative way to hide them; but I don't want to deploy sub-reports to wierd places just to get around this.
The following posts reference this topic, but didn't address it; yet raise this question.
p.s. Just my own two cents, it would seem like a nice feature to be able to hide the "show details" button because there are advantages to hiding things.
I'm currently investigating whether SQL Reporting Services might be the right solution to some reporting requirements I have been given (web reports).
There is a requirement that some of the columns are hidden to begin with and can be shown by clicking on the header of one of the other columns. E.g. There is a list of clients and a "Total Revenue" column, clicking on the "Total Revenue" column header would show an additional 5 or so columns which show a breakdown of different figures that make up the total revenue.
So my question is this: Is it possible to show/hide columns by clicking on the headers of other columns in the report?
i have a requirement that user only sees drop down list and a button. when he selects an item from drop down and click button then i need to load rdl dynamically depending on the selection from the DDL.
i have created 3 rdl files, each one contains different content. I need to show the user, the selected rdl from the drop down.
Is it possible to show or hide columns in a report on the fly, i.e. without having to run the report again?
I have a report in with a parameter to let the user choose between the data to show. However the customer doesn't like it that he has to rerun the report. Any help would be appreciated!
The first six months will be displayed in each case.
But when i choose 6 months i just want to display first six months only.when i choose 12 months i want to be displayed first 12 months columns only and for 18 months all the columns,.
I have a report that has three levels of grouping including headers (containing titles) and footers (containing summary values). I would like to programatically show/hide these header/footer sections based on a Show/Hide paramter. Is that possible? Currently I work around the problem by just having two physical reports (one with the header/footers, one without)
I am getting runtime error for the below simple execution of sp even I tried casting the @dt to varchar still getting the same error. I want to delete the table based on the 2 parameter ...
1. Table Name first parameter 2. InCondition is the column name which of type datetime
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.[DeleteTable](@InTblName NVARCHAR(250),@InCondition NVARCHAR(250)) AS BEGIN DECLARE @DeleteSQL NVARCHAR(250) DECLARE @Dt DATETIME SET @Dt = GETDATE() SELECT @DeleteSQL = N'DELETE FROM ' + @InTblName +' WHERE '+@InCondition+ '=''' + @Dt+ '''' SELECT(@DeleteSQL) EXECUTE sp_executesql @DeleteSQL END
I have corrected the code now, I am not getting the output it is throwing error at run time.
EXEC [DeleteTable] 'TABLE_NAME','COLUMN_NAME'
Where column_name is of datatype datetime
Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Procedure spDeleteTable, Line 8 Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.
I'd like the state of the function bars to stay at whatever it was as the user moves from one report to the next rather than opening to full each time a new report is opened. Can this be done through a setting or programatically at teh report level? Is there a <default_toolbars_OpenState> tag or something?
I have a textbox, combo box, and a button on a form. I would like to perform a different query depending on the combo box selection. I thought I could do something such as: if (cboSearch.Text == "Selection1") { scCmd = "SELECT * FROM tblTable WHERE txtSearch = @Selection1"; } else if (cboSearch.Text == "Selection2") { scCmd = "SELECT * FROM tblTable WHERE txtSearch = @Selection2"; } else { scCmd = "SELECT * FROM tblTable WHERE txtSearch = @Selection3"; } However, this obviously does not operate as I would need it to. What is the proper method for conditional SqlCommand statements like this?
I have a SSRS report with 6 columns each column containing count of total# of applicants meeting certain criteria. User want to click on each column and see the basic information and also want to get the ability to export the data into excel.
I know that I can create 6 drillthrough reports with basic information of applicants and link it to the count from each column respectively but I was wondering if it is possible to write a Stored procedure with all 6 select queries and execute only 1 select query based on the column that user clicks on main report ?
I have two parameters on report both will be populated in dropdownlist boxes.

If I wanted to make a report that shows different fields, one being cost, but I only wanted certain people to see cost based on their AD groups, is there a way to hide this information?
Basically, domain/user1 belongs to AD purchasing group purchasing, he can see item, description and cost, where domain/user2 belongs to sales so he can only see item and description?
My current report has around 40 subreports corresponding to tests executed by the user. There is a different sub report for each of the tests executed. I first developed the report by just putting the subreports directly on the main report. The problem is if some of my tests are not executed by the user I would like the subreports to not appear in the report.
I have tried doing this two different ways. First I tried creating a table and attaching that table to a dataset that I created that returns all the tests that were executed by the user. I then set up a filter that specified that the name for a specific subreport had to equal the test name. I then dropped the sub report for that particular test into the table. The idea is there would only be one row when data is available and no rows when no data is available so the subreport would not appear. When the data is available the subreport appears great. When it is not available and there is no item in the dataset for that test I get an error from SQL that states there was an internal reporting error and to check the SQL server log for more information. I know my table is set up correctly because when I replace the subreport with text the text will appear only if data is available for that test and the text does not appear if no data is available. I get no errors until I add the subreport and remove the data from the database so the filter does not return any items. Is there a reason why I would be getting this error? I am still pretty green using reporting services so I do not even understand how to get the log from the server to determine why this error is occuring.
Secondly I have tried to use an expression to hide the subreport using the visibility tab for the report. I was able to get this to work by creating a dataset that returns 1 if a specific test has been executed and no rows if not. I then created an expression that would return true if the dataset returned 1. This worked okay in hiding my subreport but I would then have to create 40 datasets, one for each test. Is there anyway to write an expression that would return true if a dataset contained a row with a specific test name? I have not been able to figure this out.
Can someone either help me fix the problem I am having with the table approach or write an expression that would work in the visibility setting for each sub report that did not require 40 datasets? Or is there another approach that I am not even thinking of that might work?

I am using this function for my datasource; "="data source=" & Parameters!Server.Value & ";initial catalog=" & Parameters!Database.Value"
When I set my database parameter to be a multivalued, it does not work, it will only let me select one db at a time. I would like to grab a table named pm00200 from many databases.
