Interesting Custom Functionality In Reports ... Highlighting?
Feb 13, 2007
Hello,
I have a report of processes which either go into a Log table or an Error log table. They also have start / finish datetimes and a timespan value. So I want to report the process elapsed time or the error condition, depending on which table the process finished up in.
I then compare the elapsed time to the timespan and then show either a red flag (errored) green flag(worked within timespan) or yellow flag(worked but ran over allotted time) depending on what happened.
Is this possible?
I think it would be easy for me to get the info I want into a dataset using .net code but how do you link that in with SSRS?
Any help appreciated,
Thanks.

I've been working for the last few days on some custom "configuration-like" functionality that allows me to store configuration information external from the SSIS packages that need it, without relying on the built-in Configuration features of SSIS. (Of course, if someone wants to tell me how to implement Configuration encryption and a few other features while using the built-in tools, I'm more than eager to hear that too. ) I've never had the need to do this before, and although everything is going relatively smoothly, there are a few things that I'm lacking, and the main one is validation.
Currently in order for me to use my new functionality, I need to set DelayValidation = true on my data flow tasks, or else they will fail validation (and thus fail the package) unless the design-time connection information is valid. I would strongly prefer to leave DelayValidation = False so I can more easily have "deployment sanity checks" without needing to actually execute my packages.
So here is my question:
Is there a mechanism by which I can have my own logic (implemented in a Script Task currently) executed before package validation so that I can assign values to variables which are used by connection managers, so that the end product is that the package passes validation without needing to set DelayValidation = true, and fails validation if the information in the external "configuration store" is not valid for the current deployment environment?
Any tips or tricks would be very much appreciated - thanks in advance! Thanks in advance!

We have several reporting services reports that have been formatted specifically for dashboards displays, ie. with charts, kpis, tables, etc.
Currently I am using MOSS 2007 dashboards to display these reports on a large flat-screen display in our area, but only using a Web Page webpart to display. Because these reports contain a lot of information, it is more ideal to show a single report at a time, and after a few seconds display a second report, etc, similar to a powerpoint slide show.
My question is, how can this be accomplished? Can the Reporting Services web parts do this? Can a custom web page be built to flip between different reports on a timed interval dynamically? Can transition effects (fade, wipe, etc) be used between report views?
The important point here is that the dashboard/reports are displayed on a central monitor, so these dashboards are not designed to be interactive (i.e. people viewing, changing, filtering, printing, etc.) - only viewing in a browser.
Thanks!

I am looking for some examples of code for an appliction which will let run RS reports from a custom application. The user will choose the reports from a menu structure
We have an exiting application which we use to run crystal reports which we are going to be migrating to RS. We use custom web controls to capture the required parameter values for the reports, and hope to reuse the same controls (with minimal rework) to capture the parameters values for the RS reports.
What I am after is some code which will
a) let me run the report and display it. I don't want to display the report parameters in the URL etc as we generate some report parameter values based upon the user's ID and do NOT want them displayed back to the users
b) export the report to PDF, CSV etc depending upon the option chosen by the user.
The application will be developed in VS 2005 - VB. Does any one know of some links to some sample code

I am trying to build a report that allows a user to enter partial text that filters the values in a drop down
For examle;
Lets say I am selecting a value from a drop down for States and I want to type in FL to filter the collection down so that only Florida appears in the select list.
I know the above example wont work since I cannot actaully enter text into a drop down, however
I have also tried to seperate this functionality by creating one report parameter for entering the search text and another parameter that will display a filtered data set using the text entered in the first parameter.
Is this something that reporting services can handle ? If it is please provide a brief example.
Thanks

We have a custom assembly that worked fine with SSRS 2000. Now that we have upgraded to SQL 2005 we get an "Access is denied" error when attempting to deploy reports that reference this assembly. I could swear that when we first attempted it it worked. We decided to make a minor change to the assembly code and that's when the problem started, even though I've since reverted back to the original code to make certain that the minor change wasn't the issue. The assembly is in the proper folder - C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2Reporting ServicesReportServerin - and the reports are referencing the current version. I've searched high and low on the web for an answer but have found nothing even remotely helpful. All this code does is return a string...it's not doing anything that should require any additional security; and even then I doubt if there would be a problem when deploying.
The full text of the error is:
Error while loading code module: €˜Reporting, Version=1.0.2778.12272, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null€™. Details: Could not load file or assembly 'Reporting, Version=1.0.2778.12272, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. Access is denied.
Any ideas? Anyone? I'm at my wit's end on this!
Thanks,
Mike

Hi,
We want to hightlight the terms and phrases found with Full-Text search. The problem is that searching with stemming and accentinsentivity enabled, is that you don't know exactly which words were found.
Is there a way to know which words were found when doing a Full-Text search?
Or is possible to know how the search phrase is expanded by Full-Text search?

I have created a custom library(CodeLibrary) which internally references the dlls Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client and Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.
I added this custom Dll codelibrary.dll to my SSRS report. and the expression of one of the field asÂ
=codelibrary.codefunction.GetValue(1000) Â
codefunction is the class and GetValue is the method.
When I preview the report, I get the error "Error while loading code module:
'CodeLibrary,Version=1.0.0.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=null'. Could not load file or assembly 'CodeLibrary,Version1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
I am using VS2013, I have placed the custom library DLL in the path
C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 12.0Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies
I have tested the custom library with a WPF application and it works fine.
I am not able to figure out what is causing this error.

Hi,
I am creating a custom transformation component, and a custom user interface for that component.
In
my custom UI, I want to show the custom properties, and allow users to
edit these properties similar to how the advanced editor shows the
properties.
I know in my UI I need to create a "Property Grid".
In
the properties of this grid, I can select the object I want to display
data for, however, the only objects that appear are the objects that I
have already created within this UI, and not the actual component
object with the custom properties.
How do I go about getting the properties for my transformation component listed in this property grid?
I am writing in C#.

Hi,
I've created a Custom Data Flow Component and added some Custom Properties.
I want the user to set the contents using an expression. I did some research and come up with the folowing:
Code Snippet
IDTSCustomProperty90 SourceTableProperty = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
SourceTableProperty.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
SourceTableProperty.Name = "SourceTable";
But it doesn't work, if I enter @[System:ackageName] in the field. It comes out "@[System:ackageName]" instead of the actual package name.
I'm also unable to find how I can tell the designer to show the Expression editor. I would like to see the elipses (...) next to my field.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you

Hi,
I'm trying to enable Expression for a custom property in my custom data flow component.
Here is the code I wrote to declare the custom property:
public override void ProvideComponentProperties()
{
ComponentMetaData.RuntimeConnectionCollection.RemoveAll();
RemoveAllInputsOutputsAndCustomProperties();
IDTSCustomProperty90 prop = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
prop.Name = "MyProperty";
prop.Description = "My property description";
prop.Value = string.Empty;
prop.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
...
}
In design mode, I can assign an expression to my custom property, but it get evaluated in design mode and not in runtime
Here is my expression (a file name based on a date contained in a user variable):
"DB" + (DT_WSTR, 4)YEAR( @[User::varCurrentDate] ) + RIGHT( "0" + (DT_WSTR, 2)MONTH( @[User::varCurrentDate] ), 2 ) + "\" + (DT_WSTR, 4)YEAR( @[User::varCurrentDate] ) + RIGHT( "0" + (DT_WSTR, 2)MONTH( @[User::varCurrentDate] ), 2 ) + ".VER"
@[User::varCurrentDate] is a DateTime variable and is assign to 0 at design time
So the expression is evaluated as: "DB189912189912.VER".
My package contains 2 data flow.
At runtime,
The first one is responsible to set a valid date in @[User::varCurrentDate] variable. (the date is 2007-01-15)
The second one contains my custom data flow component with my custom property that was set to an expression at design time
When my component get executed, my custom property value is still "DB189912189912.VER" and I expected "DB200701200701.VER"
Any idea ?

Below is the statement given in MicroSoft SQL Server migration documentation :
"When a view is defined with an outer join and is queried with a qualification on a column from the inner table of the outer join, the results from SQL Server and Oracle can differ. In most cases, Oracle views are easily translated into SQL Server views"
Please can anyone explain the above with some examples. I don't find such a 'CREATE VIEW' statement existsing in two DBs, which results in different result set. Am I wrong ?
Thanks,
Sam

Another tech was having the same problem with his sp which he also made into a macro. He was having the same problem as I was, he thought since he made the user the dbo owner that he woud have no problems...but since hes the one who created the db and the stored procedures when the user tried to access it he got that same error message. It went away after he went into the Enterprise manager and in the properties of the stored procedure under permission he gave the user EXEC permissions...And WAAALLLAAA problem solved :):):):)

Anyone else experience this? A developer just finished complaining about the performance of one of our databases. Well, he sent me the query and I couldn't understand why it was such a dog. Anyways I rewrote it. The execution plan is totally different between the two. I had no idea specifying the join made such a difference. First sql executed in 7 minutes that 2nd took 1 second. SELECT dbo.contract_co.producer_num_id, contract_co_statusFROM dbo.contract_co, dbo.v_contract_co_statusWHERE ( dbo.v_contract_co_status.contract_co_id = dbo.contract_co.contract_co_id ) AND contract_co_status = 'Pending' OR ( contract_co_status = 'Active' and effective_date > '1/1/2004' )SELECT dbo.contract_co.producer_num_id, contract_co_statusFROM dbo.contract_co INNER JOIN dbo.v_contract_co_status ON dbo.contract_co.contract_co_id = dbo.v_contract_co_status.contract_co_idWHERE contract_co_status = 'Pending' OR ( contract_co_status = 'Active' and effective_date > '1/1/2004' )

Hi all,
I have a system in place currently that both a local and a live database, currently the sales database is kept in line with a home grown "syncronise" script that controls keeping the two tables (live and local) in sync with the use of Local and Remote ID'sFor example;Table "Sales"ID - IntRemoteID - IntVarious Data fieldsThe 'Live' System writes new records using the RemoteID field, whilst the local inserts new records using the ID field. The Sync script copies the data up/down and assigns the corresponding RemoteID/ID's to the records as they are copied accordingly.Its been decided that this process must change, in favor of Two Way Replication. I have been tasked with finding the solution to the safe handling of ID's as theres a danger that two people can be writing a record (one live, one local) and possibly create the same ID's - i know that replication has its own ID's and could probably manage this well on its own, but these 'Internal' ID's have to be unique due to business rules.So i have been considering two possibilities to address this problem,1. Staggering the ID's - for instance Live ID's begin at 1,000,001 and local ID's begin at 1.2. Having a controlling ID table which provides the next IDBoth options have their advantages and disadvantages, with option 1 we will run into a problem later when the local ID's reach the 1 million mark (a few years away, i admit) and option 2 will need careful locking/transactional code to ensure the same ID isnt given twice.Does anyone have experience with this kind of issue? or could suggest an alternative approach to this problem? Thanks in advance!

We've had an interesting server issue here since about the start of the year, where the dual processor Netfinity server we've been running SQL 7 on has been holding steady at almost exactly 50% CPU utilization, give or take about 5%-10%. Disk utilization in all areas is relatively low. In fact, the server will do this right after a fresh reboot, with no users accessing. The really interesting part is that a graph of the two processors mirror each other. When the utilization of one goes up, the other goes down, almost perfectly. The two processors are the same speed, but their firmware build is different. IBM says it's not a problem. What say ye?

If Query1 gives 1 row output as:
customer_id
1234
-------------------
Query2 gives 1 row output as:
product_id
8970
-------------------
How do we get the above results as a single result set of 2 columns side by side? as follows:
customer_id product_id
1234 8970
Is that possible in a single select statement??
Query1 and Query2 both are select statements on the same table with different where clauses.

Hi ! I am facing an interesting problem for one of my databases. When I double click on a particular table in Enterprise Manager, the Manage Tables window shows me only one or two fields from the table. (it does not show me all the fields). When I run sp_help <tablename> in isql, all the information is displayed. Why is there such inconsistency. It happens only on one particular database. I have run DBCC commands but still no help. Does anyone have any ideas on this. Thankx,

We're having to work with some legacy data. The tables in the so-called database seem to have way more nulls than actual data. One table appears to have around 100 or more columns in it. It has close to 40,000 rows.
This Db has pretty much 0 normalization present.
IOW, your worst nightmare.
Is there a way we could run a query that would return the total number cells inthat contain NULL and another that could return the total number of data-bearing cells so we could come up with a % or a ratio.

Hi Folks,
This is a create table statement in DB2 z/ODS and OS/390 ( mainframe versions ) :
create table test(sno int) IN DATABASE database1 AUDIT NONE DATA CAPTURE NONE
This will create a table in the named database 'database1'.
1) In SQL Server, is there any equivalent for this 'IN DATABASE' syntax in DB2 ?
2) 'Data capture none' will not store any extra info about the data replication in the log files. Is there any eqiuivalent for this in SQL Server ?
Thanks,
Sam

Imagine a table in Microsoft Sql Server 2000 named Pictures with threefields. A primary key ID(int), a Name(nvarchar) and a Picture(image)field.Lets put some records into the table. The first two fields as expectedwould take an int and a string. The third field is of type image.Instead of putting a bitmap in this field lets place an xml documentthat has been streamed into a byte array. The xml document woulddescribe the Picture using say lines. If the picture was that of asquare we would have four lines in the xml document. You could think ofthe xml document as something similar to vector graphics but thedetails are not relevant. The important fact is that the contents ofthe image field is NOT a bitmap but a binary stream of an xml document.Now imagine we have a reporting tool like Crystal Reports that can beused to report on this database table. Imagine we create a report byusing the three fields mentioned above. As far as Crystal is concernedthe first field is an int, the second a string and the third an image.If our table had ten records and we preview the report we like to see10 entries each consisting of an ID, Name and a Picture.This can only happen if the image field contains a Bitmap, but asmentioned above the field contains an xml document.Now my question...Can we write something in SQL Server 2000 (not 2005) to sit between thetable and Crystal Reports so to convert the XML document to a bitmap.The restriction is that we cannot use anything but sql server itself.The client in the above case has been Crystal Reports but it could beanything.I know SQL Server 2005 supports C# with access to the .NET frameworkwithin the database. Unfortunately, I am not using SQL server 2005.Some people have suggested the use of User Defined Functions and TSQL.I like to know from the more experienced SQL Server people if what I amtrying to achieve is possible. Maybe it has not been done but is itpossible?Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...Many Regards

Hi All,
When I wanted to see ONLY today€™s records on the sql server, it took 5 minutes.
When I wanted to see records including today€™s records on the sql server, no problem. (19 Sep. is a past date which is working properly)
It is very interesting it takes 5 minutes to sort the lastday there is nothing wrong with the other days.
I ran DBCC INDEXDEFRAG method but no change anything.
I am wondering about something, everyday at 22:00 pm we are getting backup. Is this process creating a difference between before getting the back up and after got the backups?
It is really interesting issue. I do not know what I can say. It seems there is an issue with today€™s records. May be there are some locks on the today€™s records. I do not know. Why does not cause any issue for old dates but for current day ?
SELECT DISTINCT CallIDChar, ANI, DNIS, CallerName, AgentName, CallQueue, AgentID, CallType, CallStartTimeStamp, CallEndTimeStamp, CallDuration
FROM (SELECT MAINTBL.*, DRTTABLE.CallDuration AS CallDuration
FROM CallInfo AS MAINTBL
JOIN ( SELECT CallID, DateDiff(second, min(CallStartTimeStamp), max(CallEndTimeStamp)) as CallDuration
FROM CallInfo
GROUP BY CallID
) AS DRTTABLE ON MAINTBL.CallID=DRTTABLE.CallID
) as CallInfo
WHERE CallIDChar = CallIDChar
AND (CallStartTimeStamp >= '2007-09-20T00:00:00')
AND (CallStartTimeStamp <= '2007-09-20T23:59:59')
What can be reason for this issue and how can I solve it ?

Having no more experience than reading books online, here is an interesting idea I would like to run by you guys and you can let me know if it is feasible or tell me I need to put the crack pipe down...
We are going to increase the number of disks in our SAN, and I was speaking with the SAN administrator and he mentioned the shuffling of logical drives to match the new space. He said he is going to have to go through quite a few combinations/permutations on figuring out the best configuration for what data goes on the old vs. new to get the optimal space.
Is this something that can be modeled out? I can write something that recursively figures it out, but why not explore fun ideas with tools that may be able to do it?
Thank you in advance,
John Hennesey

Hello,
In the code SqlParameter dtDate = new SqlParameter("@date",SqlDbType.SmallDateTime,4);
dtDate.Value=Convert.ToDateTime(Session["date"].ToString());
cmd.Parameters.Add(dtDate);where the @date parameter is defined as a SMALLDATETIME inside a stored procedure, I cannot use a function such as "Convert.ToSmallDateTime" and it seems a conversion from DateTime to SmallDateTime takes place anywhere within the code. Eventually it works but I wonder if everything's ok with this code. Is there anything wrong about it? Thanks
