I can't figure out how to get my line chart to break when there isn't a value. For example, I have a trend line over 4 time periods. The 3rd time period is missing a value. Instead of the line ending at the 2nd period and picking up again at the 4th time period, it's connecting the line 2nd to the 4th period. I'd like it to break and for there to be no line appearing in the 3rd period. I bet that's as clear as mud, but let me know if you have any questions.
I am fairly new to SQL Server. I work for an Internet sofware company building web sites for our customers.
I am trying to insert JavaScript ad tags into a text field in my db. It seems that when the calling web page is rendered the line breaks are removed from the js code and it does not function properly. I've doubled up all of the single quotes and the line breaks appear in the insert statement but do not make it to the front side of my web site.
I have a report I'm writing and have got a problem that has stumped me.
The data the report is based in is in this format:
Date Type
1/1/08 A
1/3/08 B
3/1/08 C
3/5/08 B
3/10/08 A
3/12/08 C
3/20/08 A
Management wants a report showing a line chart that summarizes the data by Month and by Type. So, there are 2 series depending on the Type and data values are based on the count of each Type. So, in the example above the x-axis group would be month, the values would be count(Type) and there would be 2 series €“ Series 1. A, B and Series 2. C
I€™ve defined the x-axis to be Month(Fields!DateOccured.Value). However, they want the x-axis to show every month for the entire year not just what is in the database. So, I defined the x-axis to have a scale of 1 to 12 and the major interval is set to 1. This displays 1 through 12 on the x-axis.
The problem is when there is no data (null) for a particular month. Instead of showing 0, the line chart does not plot anything and the line is drawn to the next displayed point. So, for example on the data above the line chart would plot:
January
Series 1 €“ Qty. 2 Series 2 €“ Qty. 0
February
Null
March
Series 1 €“ Qty. 3 Series 2 €“ Qty. 2
The line chart would draw a line from January to March skipping February. I need to display the null values as 0 and not null indicating no occurrences for the month rather than no data present.
Hello, I need to know what means are available to change the Minimum and Maximum Y-Axis scale values rather than leave them simply as they are in the properties. Right now whatever min/max values I enter into the scale for the Y-Axis are unchangeable. I need to be able to change the min/max scale values based on the value of the data at run time.
I hope I'm posting this in the correct forum (forgive me if I'm not) since I'm not sure if this is an issue with inserting an item into a db or the processing of what I get out of it. I wrote a basic commenting system in which someone my post a comment about something written on the site. I wanted to keep it very simple, but I at least want the ability for a user to have newlines in their comment without having to hardcode a <br /> or something like that. Is there a way for me to detect a newline if someone, for example, is going to their next paragraph? Let me know if you need a better explanation. Thanks in advance!
I need to create a chart with the following features
1) Bar chart that has data for 3 years (3 series) 2) Line chart that has the same data as per the above points on the bar chart but this is a running total. (3 series) 3) These data points are for the 12 months 4) there should be a secondary axis for the cumulative one
I need the Trend line for the following data in Line chart they are the following data. The following are the graph are my output and i need the trend line for these Key_gap value.
This is the link [URL] ....
I need the same trend line for the Bar-Chart in SSRS 2005.
We have a line graph which plots the actual data points (x,y), everything is working fine with this graph. Now we need to add a trend line to this existing graph after going thro. the articles we came to know that there is no direct option in SSRS to draw a trend line. So we need to calculate the trend values ourselves which we need to plot as atrend line. This trend line is similar to the trend line which comes in Excel chart, do anyone know how to calculate the trend values from the actual data points. We got through several formulas, but were not clear, have anyone tried out exactly the same, if so please help us out by providing an example to calculate the trend values.
I wanted to know how to insert line breaks while updating the database. Even if I have a number of paragraphs......everything is displayed as one single paragraph. How do i display text in paragraphs ?
I have a field in a db table which is like a chat history.I need to update the field with a user's input (put into a multiline text box) and append that to the beginning of the field.The problem is that I want to maintain line breaks when I retrieve the field into a multiline textbox (aka textarea) and can't figure it out.I've searched around and have seen lots of solutions for converting line breaks into <br> tags, but those people are trying to output to a label.I'm using an update command in my SqlDataSource like this: UpdateCommand="UPDATE [account] SET [history] = @history + history WHERE [id] = 1"With a parameter declaration like this: <UpdateParameters> <asp:ControlParameter Name="history" ControlID="TextBox1" PropertyName="Text" /> </UpdateParameters>If I try to concatenate in a or CHR(10), the characters are literally inserted. Like this for example (this is the last variation I tried).... UpdateCommand="UPDATE [account] SET [history] = @history + CHR(10) + history WHERE [id] = 1"How do I store a CrLf programatically?
I have e-mails saved in a SQL database with all HTML formatting information. To remove all HTML formatting I craeted a function on the RS report:
Public Shared Function removeHtmlChar(ss) try Dim l as integer Dim i as integer Dim ch as string Dim x as integer Dim t as string t = "" l=len(ss) for i=1 to l ch=mid(ss,i,1) x=i if(ch="<") then x=i do while(mid(ss,x,1)<>">") x=x+1 loop else t=t & ch end if i=x next t = t.Replace("nbsp;"," ") removeHtmlChar = t catch removeHtmlChar = "" end try End Function
When I look at the report on the screen the report is showed correct. If I print or export the report it add a lot of line breaks in the e-mail text. Why does it not print it as it looks at the screen?
I have a series of fixed width files, all with the same schema. I need to import the data into a SQL Server table. Each record in the flat file begins with 'D1'. The length of each record (string) is 380. There are cases where the record ends after position 193, and a new record appears in the current string beginning at position 194. So at position 194 'D' appears, and '1' appears at position 195.
In the flat file, I need to insert a line break after position 193 if position 194 = 'D' and if position 195 = '1'. I'm guessing I would do this with a Script Component Transformation. Once the file is edited, then I can bring the data into the table.
What might the script look like? If you have any suggestions, samples, or know of examples on the web you can point me to, please share.
Is there something I can do in layout mode to cause line breaks to only occur when data changes? I am creating a list of students and their degrees, but some students have multiple degrees and some only have one. If I place the information in a table with a blank row for a break, it breaks after every degree, but without the break there are no breaks at all.
Here's what I want:
Student degree degree
Student degree
Student degree degree degree
But what I have is:
Student degree
degree
Student degree
Student degree
degree
degree
Is there any way to fix this, perhaps with an expression of some kind?
Since SQL 2005 Express doesn't appear to let you paste multiple lines of data into a cell -- a task as "basic" as the Commodore 64 -- I'm forced to enter the data for 2 records directly. I'm trying to insert line breaks, which SQL 2000 allowed you to do by simply pressing the Enter key. However, 2005 just moves you to another record. How do I do this extremely simple task?
I am storing formatted data (including spaces and line breaks) in a single field in a table. When I run a report on that field, the preview of the report is automatically removing all the extra spaces and line breaks, making the report unreadable. When exporting the report to PDF or printing it, it shows the line breaks and spaces as expected.
Does anyone know how to make the report preview show the spaces and line breaks?
I have a simple SSIS package that runs a query on the db and outputs a fixed width flat file. I have all my column widths defined and in the connection manager i can preview the output. Everything looks great. All the fields fall where they should and each record is on it's own line.
When i run the SSIS program and then go open my text file with a text editor the ouput is all on the same line. I have tried changing my file format from fixed width to ragging right and adding a row delimiter but that doesn't work either. I feel like i'm missing something small here. It could even be an issue w/ my text editor (although i've tried to open the text file in multiple editors). In the flat file connection manager I have my file defined to be 187 characters long, So figure every 187 characters it should output a new line (it should add the carraige return right?).
My line chart displays all lines in a single color (the series color). I'd like a single color per item in the series just like the bar chart. Is there a way to change this? Or is the only differentiation the markers?
I have an average that changes based on the date ranges that the user selects, for some reason it always shows up at 0 value even though i tied the value directly to the textbox, ive tried just about every trick i know. Here is what it looks like.
I want the top level AHT the first chart should be 13.66 the second one should be 8.01.
I can enter a hard value but i need it to change based on what the user enters.
Is there anyway that I can have a multi-line chart title? I have even tried placing a text box over the title part of the chart that is multi-line, although this appears to work once the report is deplyed and viewed in a web browser the text box appears below the chart and the chart then has no title.
I create a rdlc file that contains a line chart with 3 lines that will plot in it. I put the proper data field in "series" and everything plots fine, except I get a spurious line that goes from the end of one line to the start of another line (or possibly back to itself, I can't tell). In another line chart I have 3 lines but get 2 spurious lines.
Anyone know how this happens or how I can fix it? The data is ordered and I don't see anything that would cause this..
Two questions both on Line charts: Is it possible to give the marker of a line chart a different colour from that given to the line? Is it possible to make only the line in the line chart invisible? My requirement is to keep only the markers.
So I have created a chart in my report that counts the number of transactions by day. Each day in a month is a series. Now when I view the report, the series line is different color as expected until I hit the 17th, then the color associated with the line repeats. I.e. the 1st and the 17th are the same color line, the 2nd and the 18th are the same color...etc.
Does anyone know how to break the color limitation quandry?
I want to create a line chart showing the bases, split by 6 month periods, on the X axis and a count on the Y. I have tried but am well and trult stuck!
series group : city (DimGeography.City) filtered by (DimGeography.StateProvinceName = "London")
I am getting different lines for different cities of London. That's working fine. But the requirement is i need to display one more line in the same line chart depicting/showing the sales for the "London" state as well.
I am creating a simple line chart using SSRS 2005. The chart will display date vs. cumulative enrollment. In the line chart I want to display two lines. One line represents expected enrollment data and the other represents actual enrollment data. I would like the expected data line to be a dashed line and the actual line to be a solid line. I have a single dataset that contains data for both lines. I have added a column to the dataset that acts as a flag to indicate whether the data point is expected or actual. I have dropped the enrollment field from my dataset into "Drop data fields here". I have dropped the date field from my dataset into "Drop category fields here". I have dropped the flag field from my dataset into "Drop series fields here".
When I change the style of the series it changes the styles of both lines. How can assign a different line style to each line? Is this even possible with the way I have set up the chart? Is there another way to set up the chart to accomplish what I am trying to do?
