Issues On Setting The Table Visibility Using An Expression
May 21, 2007
Hi team,
I'm working on Reporting service 2005. When I give an expression for visibility of a table in a report based on a parameter, the contents are coming in a single page and it is not based on the interactive size of the report. I want the data to be coming on different pages based on the interactive size of the page. If the visibility is set directly it works. Could you please help me to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Minu

I'm trying to show a column only if a certain parameter contains a certain string of characters. So far I've got it working if the parameter is equal to the string of characters by doing
=IIF (Parameters!Param1.Value = "String1", False, True)
but I would like it to work if the Param1.Value contains "String1" ... I tried
=IIF (Parameters!Param1.Value like "%String1%", False, True)
but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
TIA

I currently have a text box that say "Company", I have the a visibility expression set on that text box as follows:
=iif(Sum(Fields!ID.Value,"Footnote") <> 0, False, True)
Basically if a number is greater than 0 show it, if not don't
I want to modify it to say always show Company, if its greater than 0 show Company *

I have the following Visibility expression set on a SQL 2000 RS report set on the hidden value:
=iif(Parameters!state.Value= "Institutional Agency",true, false)
Problem is that when I choose Insititutional Agency from the drop down list it evaluates the expression and shows the textbox, when another state is choosen it still shows the textbox and I dont want it to? I have ran a test to show the expression (Parameters!state.Value) in a text box, and its showing the right values each time i run the report?

I have a report that gets exported to Excel. In the report there is an expression in the visibility field on one of the detail lines to hide it if it meets certain criteria. When run directly and exported to PDF, it displays correctly (hiding the lines as requested). When exporting to Excel, the lines are not hidden.
Can anyone help on this?
Thank you.

Hi All,
I have the following requirement:
I have an output like this:
Country
State
Measure
USA
WA
1000
OR
2000
Canada
BC
300
India
TN
200
AP
400
I am using a matrix where country and state are on rows.
I want to set the visibility of the textbox containing the value of the state column based on the number of states a country has.
I would like the output to be like this: If the country has only one state, then the state name should be blank.
Country
State
Measure
USA
WA
1000
OR
2000
Canada
300
India
TN
200
AP
400
Something like iif(count(state) for a country)==1,false,true)
Please let me know how to achieve this in SSRS.
Thanks in advance
Arun

Hi all,
I have a problem with a report I have created. It has around 52 columns and each column is shown or hidden based on a boolean parameter. Simple huh? I though so.
Each column has an expression similar to =IIF(Parameters!showfirstname.Value,False,True) for the Hidden field. This is not the hidden field for the 'cell' or 'header' but for the entire column.
The problem is, the report is correctly displayed as a pdf, tiff, excel file (possibly others), but all columns with an expression as the hidden value are not displayed in the xml or csv output regardless of the parameter value. This also applies if the expression is =IIF(True,False,True) or =IIF(1=1,False,True).
As soon as I change this field back to a simple 'True' or 'False' it displays correctly. I've tried playing around with setting the output options to values other than the default Auto setting to no avail.
There are numerous comments about this on newsgroups online going back to the first release of reporting services but none of them have solutions.
Regards
John Burns

I would like to suppress the entire row in tablix if no data despite multiple expresions used in a text box.
If data the it will show per the DB data else it should not show anythig or leave it as blank row
The issue is where I have appended ";" and "'" in the expressions but still comes in the report output because it is appended even if no data.

Product version : SQL Reporting Service 2005 with SQL SP2
It's a report with 3 sub-reports in it, i want to display only one of the 3 sub-reports at a time depending on 1 or 2 parameters received by the parent report. These parameters are verified by an expression into the visibility tab of each sub-report. The two parameters are 2 lists with possibles values between 1 and 2 (not query based). I have verified these values and they are correctly received by report depending on the selection of each list.
Ex.: SubReport1.expression = IIf(Parameters!Regroupement.Value = 1, True, False)
SubReport2.expression =IIf(Parameters!Regroupement.Value = 2 AND Parameters!SautPage.Value = 1, True, False)
SubReport3.expression =IIf(Parameters!Regroupement.Value = 2 AND Parameters!SautPage.Value = 2, True, False)
So here are the posibilities :
when Regroupement.Value = 1 --> SubReport1 will be shown
when Regroupement.Value = 2 AND SautPage.Value = 1 --> SubReport2 will be shown
when Regroupement.Value = 2 AND SautPage.Value = 2 --> SubReport3 will be shown
Now why that doesn't work ? I always see the same report and it's not the right one displayed even i change the selection of my 2 lists for the parameters value.

I have two textboxes. Based on the value in one textbox I want to show the value in other one or not. So
If Textbox1 has null value (from db) then Textbox2 shoululd be blank.
So I go to the properties of Textbox2 and write this code in the visibility tab for the expression radio button.
Suppose Textbox2 holds Fields!NewValAmt.Value from db
=IIf(Fields!NewValAmt.Value is nothing , False, True).
But this code never sets the visibility to true even if there is non null value for that field.
Any help will be appreciated.

does anyone know why my initial visibility expression (=Level()>1) stays in effect after generating my report? The idea was to display only a couple of levels in the hierarchy at first, so that the user could more easily decide what he wants to expand. But expand doesnt do anything after initial rendering.
The only way I could get this kind of report to work (show hierarchy and expand/collapse) was to live with initial visibility = "visible", but unfortunately, that setting shows all levels right away, not a very user friendly thing.

So if my Parameter value is...
MCCL, MCMA, MCPL, MCPR, MCRE, MCSE, MCSN, MCVA, MCCL, MCEP, MCMA, MCREÂ out of 43 possible choices,
What is the expression syntax to hide my tablix column based on my parameter value?
=iif(instr(Join(Parameters!ColumnVisibility.Value,","),"MCCL","MCMA","MCPL"...)>0,false,true)
Just not sure of the syntax...or do I have to qualify each one???
= IIf(Parameter!PF1.Value = "MCCL" OR Parameter!PF1.Value = "MCMA"..., TRUE, FALSE)

I am trying to create a report which uses a table. I have typed manually each cell.
In the subtotal lines, on rows, I have used ReportItems expression. On rows it is working. However, on column, the similar ReportItems expression, instead of adding the values, it is concatenating.
Could you please help?

Hello,
I'm using SSRS 2005
I'm trying to write an expression for the "Hidden" property of a column in a table. The column is only populated with data if the group on my table is open. If the group is collapsed, then the column is empty. I'd like to make the column hidden if the group is collapsed. So I'm thinking it would be something like this:
=Iif(Table_1_Group.Hidden = "True", "True", "False")
But I can't find anyone who has written this anywhere.
I'm basically trying to make this report do the same thing a matrix does, but the matrix doesn't let me label the columns. I put textboxes above the matrix in line with the columns, but when I deploy the report to ReportManager, the textboxes get thrown all over the place and don't line up with the columns anymore.
So I guess if you can't answer the first question, an alternate question I have is how are you supposed to label the columns (row groups) in your matrix? They don't have headers, if I try to line textboxes up with them they get all messed up during deployment. They have that textbox up there in the top left corner that runs across the top of all of the row group columns, but if I put labels separated spaces in that textbox, the spaces get removed in rendering so the text is pushed all to the left and doesn't line up anymore.
Thanks,
Andy

I'm trying to set the value of the SelectedDatabases collection property of an Update Statistics Task using an expression for the task, basing it on a user variable. Ultimately, I'll set that variable's value from a configuration file at run time and thereby specify the database whose statistics I want to update.
When I set this up in the designer, I get an error at the time I try to save the package:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Nonfatal errors occurred while saving the package:
Error at Update Statistics Task: The result of the expression "@[User::SelectedDatabase]" on property "SelectedDatabases" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property.
Error at Update Statistics Task: The result of the expression "@[User::SelectedDatabase]" on property "SelectedDatabases" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property.
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
I used the expression editor's expression builder to select the user variable, so I assume the syntax is correct. However, I'm suspecting that there's some additional syntax required to store that value in the collection's array. I cannot find any references to any special formats and am wondering if anyone know's how to do this correctly. On the other hand, maybe it is telling me setting this property from an expression is not even allowed. If it's not allowed, why is it in the list of properties to set? In any case, none of this is clear.
Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks,
Joe

Hi there,
I'm creating an SSIS package that will execute legacy dts packages. The package to be executed is decided at runtime using a sql query task.
Executing a dts package statically works fine, but when I try to set the details of the dts to be run via expressions, I get the error below.
To make it dynamic, I created a variable of type string, and put the package name in here. I also have a string variable for the packageid. Then I set up an expression on the Execute DTS 2000 Package Task that sets the PackageName & PackageID property to this variable.
The PackageId is a string variable I've retrieved using:
select top 1 name,
cast(id AS varchar(50)) id,
cast(versionid AS varchar(50)) versionid
from sysdtspackages
where name = @PackageName
order by createdate desc
When I use the task to set the package id it works find (by selecting a dts, then changing the name), but when I try to provide the package id I get this message:
Error: 0x0 at Execute DTS 2000 Package Task: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8004040E): Invalid GUID specified.
at DTS.PackageClass.LoadFromSQLServer(String ServerName, String ServerUserName, String ServerPassword, DTSSQLServerStorageFlags Flags, String PackagePassword, String PackageGuid, String PackageVersionGuid, String PackageName, Object& pVarPersistStgOfHost)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.Exec80PackageTask.PackageUtils.LoadDTS8Package(String pkgSrc, String sourceUser, String sourcePwd, Int32 srcType, Boolean bUseTrustedConnection, String packageName, String packagePassword, String packageID, String packageVersionGUID)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.Exec80PackageTask.Exec80PackageTask.LoadPackage()
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.Exec80PackageTask.Exec80PackageTask.ExecuteThread()
Task failed: Execute DTS 2000 Package Task
but the method signature specifies String PackageGuid, and it is a string..
any ideas??
i tried casting the variable like so:
(DT_GUID) @[User:TSPkgId], as the versionid is a uniqueidentifier on sysdtspackages.. It didn't like that at all (can't cast from type DT_WSTR to DT_GUID error code 0xC00470C2)

When empty, and hidden property set to false only one line apears blank in my report, but if i set the hidden property to true it results in an empty space with the same height as the table i´m trying to hide.
My goal is to have no blank spaces at all when a table is empty.
Anyone can help??

Hi. I am having a problem with a 2005 report that has two tables and is designed thru visual studio. The second table is set to page break before printing and also to repeater headers on new pages. It works fine just like that. However, if I place a condition on the visibilty of the table based on an input report parameter it does not page break before rendering the table. In fact it does not page break at all leaving me with an extremely long last page. The visiblity parameter does properly toggle. This is all occurring when rendering the report to the screen using the windows reportviewer. When I export to PDF it looks fine.
Any help would be great.

i have a report that contains a sub-report that is embeded in one of the textboxes of the table. what i am trying to do
is have the main table toggle visilibity based on the value of the sub-report...in my case the toggle is very simple - if the sub-report returns any value at all, then i need the row in the parent table to be 'visible'
any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a report problem. I'm using a parameter to dynamically control visibility for two tables. If the parameter is set to one value, I want to switch one of the tables to invisible, if the parameter is set to another, I want the other table to be invisible instead.
This all works fine in Visual Studio. When I publish it to my report server, the visibility controls no longer function and both tables always display. Any ideas here?
I'm running 2005, SP2 CTP.

Hi all,
My report has a number of tables.
These table design is as [Total(numeric),Year(numeric),Month(varchar(15)].
Each table on report is populated based on individual tables in Mngt Studio.
My problem is.If table is empty,the table on report does not get populated/displayed.It is hidden.How do I return a message,Example {"No Value for table A"} instead and show the table in report only when the table has some value.
I have written an expression like this.But it just hides the table if its empty,and im not able to return a value "No Value"instead.
=IIF(Fields!Month.Value IS Nothing,"No Value for table A",False)

I have inserted a table in the layout. I want to create in the header of this table a field that sums up a set of values from a iif statement. So My expression is =sum(iif(Fields!aloc.value=2, Fields!balc.Value, 0)).
What I'm trying to do is sum all the values where aloc=2.
I Get an error saying The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox134€™ uses an aggregate function on data of varying data types. Aggregate functions other than First, Last, Previous, Count, and CountDistinct can only aggregate data of a single data type.
That data type of balc is Float.
What am I doing wrong or what do I need to do to fix this?
I have no schooling on Reporting Services or SQL. I've been learning as I go for the past 6 months.

Hello all,
I had editted this post to ask a better question.
I had noticed that certain expressions won't work in details. Is this true ?
when I tried using an IIF expression, I always get a blank or an empty field even if it was a text.
could someone clarify this ? I don't know whether it is just me or is it a limitation.
Sincerely,

I have created 1 report with 2 datasets. This report is attached to the 1st dataset.For example,1st one is "Smallappliances", 2nd is "Largeappliances".
I created a tablix and, the 1st column extracts Total sales per Sales person between 2 dates from 1st dataset (Small appliances). I used running values expression and it works fine.
Now, I would like to add another column that extracts Total sales per sales person between 2 dates from 2nd dataset (Large appliances). I am aware that I need to use Lookup expression and it is giving me the single sales value rather than the total sales values. So, I wanted to use RunningValue expression within lookup table to get total sales for large appliances.
This is the lookup expression that I added for the 2nd column.
=Lookup(Fields!salesperson.Value,Fields!sales_person.Value,RunningValue(Fields!sales_amount.Value,
sum, " sales_person"),
"Largeappliances").
I get this error when I preview the report.An error occurred during local report processing.The definition of the report is invalid.An unexpected error occurred in report processing.
(processing): (SortExpression ++ m_context.ExpressionType)
