How To Go From A Database To A Calendar Format?
Jul 23, 2005
Hello
My department has a SQL server database that is used to all facets of
production within our department. This includes key production job
steps, project names, numbers and descriptions.
The calendar is currently done manually as an Excel document. The user
recieves hard copies of the required information, then keys it into the
appropriate place on the Excel document.
We would like to pull information out of that database, and put it in a
monthly calendar format. For example, take a project name and the date
associated with that project, and put it on a calendar in the
appropriate date "square".
If you have information or experience with software that can be used to
accomplish this task, I would appreciate hearing your advice.
Thanks in advance.

I have a DateTime parameter called End Date set up with a default value eg =DateAdd("s",-1,Today). When I preview, the default value appears as 19/09/2006 23:59:59, which is fine.
However, when the report is deployed, it is displayed as 19/09/2006 11:59:59 PM. This would also be fine, except when the user changes the date using the calendar, it converts the time back to 24 hour time - eg 19/09/2006 23:59:59. Then when the report is run, it converts the time format back to AM/PM again.
Also, I have a Start Date Parameter, with a default value of 12:00AM today. I would like this to be displayed as 19/09/2006 12:00AM in the Start Date parameter text box, however reporting services will not display the 12:00AM part. Using FormatDateTime in the Default value will return a string and cause an error. I don't want to change the parameter to a string and lose the date picker.
Any ideas,
Thanks
PS Getting the Date/Time settings changed on the reporting server would be extremely difficult!

Hi,
I'm running SSRS reports on my local server - having deployed them locally. The calendar control is rendering dates in US format, i.e. 03/31/2008 and I need the British format of 31/03/2008.
The weird thing is that when I access the reports using the link:
http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fLON-SQL-S03%2fOpsSupportLee%2fFailed+Form+Reasons
then everything is fine. However a direct call (skipping Report Manager) such as:
http://cbada00272/reportserver?%2fLON-SQL-S03%2fOpsSupportLee%2fFailed+Form+Reasons
produces the US format. My Regional setting is using English UK and the server is British English. What on earth is going on here? By the way cbada00272 is synonymous with localhost.
Regards,
Lee

Hello!
I have a table in an SQL database, in which I have a field in datetime format.
In my aspx page I would like to get the date the user chooses from an asp: calendar I have and submit it to the DB.
I already have all the code ready, the datasource, the gridview, all other fields to submit, and I just added a template field with the asp:calendar so that the user could choose a date.
I´m getting this error when I run the page: "Conversion from type 'Date' to type 'Boolean' is not valid."
It seems to be a problem about the date that is given by the Calendar object (?) and the one I should submit to my DB.
Here´s the part of the code where I have my standard Calendar binded to the correspondant field: <asp:Calendar ID="Calendar1" runat="server" SelectedDate='<%# Bind("data") %>' Visible='<%# Eval("data") %>'> </asp:Calendar>
I´m gessing I should probably change the format of the date somehow before submit it to the DB, but how?
Thank you all,
RR

Hi,I m trying to implement a calendar, where you can select certain dates and view list of events for that day. The list is generated from database. I found a script on the web that is quite similar to what i want to achieve. I tried to run this script, however I get an exeption saying:An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. .... error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)This is the code:SqlConnection mycn; SqlDataAdapter myda; DataSet ds = new DataSet(); DataSet dsSelDate; String strConn; private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { // Put user code to initialize the page here strConn = "Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=pubs"; mycn = new SqlConnection(strConn); myda = new SqlDataAdapter("Select * FROM EventsTable", mycn); myda.Fill(ds, "Table"); //This where I get the exeption } protected void CalendarDRender(object sender, System.Web.UI.WebControls.DayRenderEventArgs e) { // If the month is CurrentMonth if (!e.Day.IsOtherMonth) { foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows) { if ((dr["EventDate"].ToString() != DBNull.Value.ToString())) { DateTime dtEvent = (DateTime)dr["EventDate"]; if (dtEvent.Equals(e.Day.Date)) { e.Cell.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.PaleVioletRed; } } } } //If the month is not CurrentMonth then hide the Dates else { e.Cell.Text = ""; } } private void Calendar1_SelectionChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { myda = new SqlDataAdapter("Select * from EventsTable where EventDate='" + Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToString() + "'", mycn); dsSelDate = new DataSet(); myda.Fill(dsSelDate, "AllTables"); if (dsSelDate.Tables[0].Rows.Count == 0) { DataGrid1.Visible = false; } else { DataGrid1.Visible = true; DataGrid1.DataSource = dsSelDate; DataGrid1.DataBind(); } }
Can some one tell me what is wrong with the code.Thank You

Hi,
I'm neck-deep in trying to normalize all the info I need into separate tables, but I seem to have hit a wall running.
I was curious as to what the "best" way is to develop a database of concert events would be? What I think I've figured so far would be if I created a table called events...that would be 1 row of data per concert event. Each row could then have a 'event_id' as PK, 'date', and a column with the associated 'band_id' from the bands table. Then anytime the date was accessed (assuming a populated row for that date), a list of concerts for that date would show.
I would also like to use the 'event_id' as an access point for my reviews table...where, quite obviously, I would like to be able to have reviews associated with each event from the calendar as well. Does all this seem right? Or is there a better way (i.e. more efficient, smaller database, and/or use less memory)? How, for example (in short, obviously), does a website like Pollstar.com database their events?
I guess my question with regards to this database is also...within my bands table, should I include their tour dates? Or should I put the band_id in my events table?
I was hoping to get a just a little bit of direction so I don't turn some baby missteps into a long-term project down the wrong road. Any help or response is greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

Hi,
I'm developing a site in asp.net and one of the main parts is to manage a timesheet.
Now the problem i'm facing is; how do I save this timesheet in a database in a way that it's easy to save and easy to query from.
I'm thinking about problems as i.e. 1st of a month is middle of the week, so I can't save it like this:
Month Week Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun
1 5 .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
2 1 .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
Anyway, I got stuck to find the best method, maybe someone has made something like this?
Thanks in advance!

I have thought about this, and I cannot in my head come up with a way to create this. Maybe I am thinking about it too much, or maybe it is this difficult and I will need a 3rd party tool.
My users have requested a SQL Reporting Services report that looks like a calendar. Each page will be one month on the calendar. And then the data will fall on the calendar according to a date field in the database. It should not be all that difficult, but I cannot think of a way to acheive this.
Has anyone tried to build a report that is basically just a calendar, and each page is a month of the calendar? If so, did you build it using the standard SQL reporting services tools, or did you purchase a 3rd party vendor?
Let me know what route I should look to follow.
Thank you!

Hello there
I'm having a little issue with Updating a SQL Table. *Deep Breath* OK, lets begin from the start...
I Have a Table Called Job. I've an ASP Page setup to insert a new record into the Job table via a DetailsView Control with an SQLDataSource bound to it. This table has many columns in it, 4 of which are DateTime columns. I use a calendar Control from the toolbox for the DateTime selection and bound all the Calender control's SelectedDate to: SelectedDate='<%# Bind('EnteredDate') %>' using the EnteredDate field as my example.
I only insert DateTime Values into 2 of the 4 DateTime columns in the original INSERT, so the remaining 2 columns are NULL. I have an UPDATE setup on a different page to edit the previously inserted rows in job using another SQLDataSource again using the bind method for calendars: '<%# Bind('RevisedDate') %>'
My Problem is (according to this post I found online http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread529052.html ) the page crashes with "Specified cast is not valid". The reason being I'm trying to bind to the remaining 2 NULL DateTime columns in an attempt to update them with a value my user will not be able to insert in the original INSERT. The solution Code I found on the link above is in VisualBasic and I have had little luck in trying to convert it into C# to even see if it solves my problem:
VB Code:
Function FixDBNull(ByVal inVal As Object) As DateTime If inVal Is DBNull.Value Then Return DateTime.Now Else Return inVal End IfEnd Function
ASP Code:
<asp:calendar id="calEditRevisedDate" runat="server"selecteddaystyle-backcolor="red"selecteddate='<%#FixDBNull(eval("RevisedDate")) %>'visibledate='<%# FixDBNull( eval("RevisedDate")) %>'selectorstyle-backcolor="Green"></asp:calendar>
Any suggestions or work arounds would be greatly appreciated
Thank You

I have 2 dropdownlist and a gridview. The dropdownlists filter the
gridview, but now I have added two calendars and two textboxes. After
user makes selections from the calendar the text boxes are populated
with the dates. How do I add this to the following select parameter so
that the filtering/querying works properly? (what I have here does not
work in terms for the dates, but dropdownlists filter when I remove the
dates section):<asp:SqlDataSource ID="DATA" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DATA_Connection %>"

adate, 101)>=@param3 AND CONVERT(char(10), bdate, 101)<=@param4))" UpdateCommand="Update atable set afield=@afield, bfield=@bfield where id=@ID" > <selectParameters> <asp:controlparameter name="param1" controlid="DropDownList1" PropertyName="SelectedValue" type="String" /> <asp:controlparameter name="param2" controlid="DropDownList2" PropertyName="SelectedValue" type="String" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="param3" ControlID="Textbox1" PropertyName="Text" Type="string" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="param4" ControlID="Textbox2" PropertyName="Text" Type="string" /> </selectParameters>

We have developed several reports using VS 2005 and deployed them to our SQL 2005 reporting server. As most of our reports use date parameters we would like to incorporate a calendar control to allow users to select their date range as opposed to typing them in. I have done some reseach online but can only find vague references on how to do this. Has anyone out there been able to successfully deploy a calendar control onto an SQL report? Thanks!

I'm looking for a function that will return an INTEGER that computes the number of days between two dates based on a 360-calendar year instead of using just the datediff function which is actual days.
If anybody knows where I could find something like this, I would be greatly appreciated.
Does this site have a library of user-defined sql functions? Or, does somebody have a site that you know of where there are a bunch?
Thanks,

Hello all,
I would like to populate a calendar table similar to the one used in the foodmart2005 sample database. In this table the day of the week, month, and year are recorded as well as additional data which I do not require.
If possible I would like to populate the table with 10 years of data starting with 2007.
Secondly would 10 years of data make the table to large?
Thank you for any thoughts you may have.

Hello,
Please, help with following issues.
I have 3 parameters in the report. When user selects 1st one from dataset, one of the fields gives me object creation date. Calendar control is supposed to be filtered to allow users select the dates greater than selected one.
How can I filter (disable dates in) calendar control?

I've been scratching my head on this for quite awhile and it has me stumped.I hope to define a query which I can use to fill a "day planner" type ofcalendar. Although I've see a lot of these, only one has had what I thinkis a really nice feature - it collected into groups all events thatoverlapped into contiguous blocks of time. The net result of this is thatit becomes possible to output a calendar (html table) that is much lesscluttered. So I want to use this same idea for my own little project.The trick is that events may (or may not) start and end such that theyoverlap (completely or only at one end). I only am concerned with events ona given day.My "events" table contains eventtitle, date,starthour and endhour. Hoursare numbered from "0" to "23". I also have a lookup table of the "hours ofthe day" with which I did a JOIN to include the "missing" hours (where therewere no events - making a query that returned events for each hour and nullsfor each hour that had no event scheduled for it. But this makes too many"blank" rows, which is part of the clutter to which I referred.I've been able to construct queries that work in some cases, but not all.I've reread my copy of Celko's SQL For Smarties and came close, but nocigar. Where he discusses hotels and room-nights is part of the solution Ineeded, but my need goes beyond that quite a bit.Basically, I need to calculate one or more "spans" that contain contiguousgroups of start/end times. By knowing the number of hours spanned, I canthen use that for a <TD rowspan='n'> to collect my data like I want.I seem to keep hitting all around the solution. Maybe there isn't one (thatis purely a SQL solution). Or maybe I'm just looking at the problem thewrong way.So I thought I'd see if anyone here might point me in the right (or at least"new") direction. I've been looking at this for so long, I'm probablyoverlooking some simple and obvious trick to do this. Or maybe I'll getlucky and someone has seen or done exactly this already and can provide asolution?Incidentally, I've avoided utilizing a stored procedure or making a numberof temp tables to collect intermediate results, as I might need to port thisto a "dumb" database that does not provide such facilities. Maybe that'simpractical?thanks in advance,--

Hi,
I am trying to find the best way to use a date parameter on a OLAP report and get the calendar pop to be used instead of a dropdown.
Whenever I change from string to datetime for the parameter I (of course) get an error about different data types, since OLAP is returning the fields as strings and formatted.
Any easy (or best) approach to use to get a calendar pop to work with an OLAP report? I am mainly doing this for date range searches and do not want people to pick from huge dropdowns for dates.
Thanks.

I have an item table that tracks changes to the item's value:
item_ID, cal_ID, item_value
The cal_ID is sequential in calendar period order.
Every item has at least one record with a cal ID of 0 and the starting value. When the value changes, a new record is written to the table with the item's ID, the cal_ID of the period in which the change occurred, and the new item value
I need to be able to join this to the calendar so I can get the item value for every item for every calendar period. I'm trying to come up with the join syntax that will give me one record for each cal_ID and item_ID with the item_value that was in effect for that cal_ID
If the item table had a begin and end cal_ID on the record, it'd be a straightforward BETWEEN subquery. But all I have is the begin period.
I've been wracking my brain for five hours. Any suggestions?
