I have several reports that are set to landscape but then lose this layout when a linked report is created from the original report. I found the link below describing Brian Welcker's workaround and my question is where do you place the vb.net code he provided?

I created a linked report and I see that the original height and width settings which were set for landscape have changed into portrait:
View 7 Replies View RelatedSince SP2 was installed on our SSRS server a couple of days ago, reports viewed in the client Report Viewer control (with or without VS SP1) show a black background when in Print Layout Mode. All other rendering options work fine. Anyone else seen this? Any clues how to fix?

Is there a way to save print settings with the report so that settings such as the size of paper (A4, legal...) and layout (landscape, portrait) do not have to be specified by user everytime she wishes to print the report?
Hi
Iam able to print only the first page in the local reports!!!

We are using SQL 2005 and Reporting Services 2005. When we print reports they take so long to print that it is faster to export to PDF and then open and print the PDF. The cause appears to be the print job file size. In our old reporting tool one report had a file size of 1.22MB. The reporting services version of the same report is 2.82 GB. This takes 20 minutes for the printer to spool and process. Our users are understandably upset that a highly touted new technology requires a work around to print reports efficiently.
Is this file size normal? What can we do to make printing from SSRS feasible?
Any help would be greatly appreaciated.
hi,
I am using vb.net 2005 and sql server 2005 express edition.
I have used reports (*.rdlc) to print invoice. The invoice format is as follows:
'**********************************************************************************
Company Name
Party Name Invoice No.
Date
Item No. Description Qty Rate Amount
1
2
3
Taxes and Duties applicable
Amount In Words
For Company Name
'**********************************************************************************
All the data is placed in body section of report using different DataTable dataregions.
This is done as Taxes and Duties have multiple Rows and columns
but the location of printing of Taxes & duties Table on paper always changes depending on the no. of items in the invoice
this does not match with the pre printed stationery used for invoice printing.
How do i print the taxes & duties and all details below the ItemDetails Table always at the same location independent of
the no. of items in the invoice?
Hello,
When print reports in Reporting Services 2005, the default paper is "A4", but our reports have letter size, or even "A3" or "legal". Could we set a default paper for printing for each report?

I've created a data flow where I have linked to an OLE DB Source then created a Flat File Destination. My file is now on my c: drive. I'd like to use that data to create a report, then print to a PDF. How would I do that?
Currently I was doing this in Access, but I am moving my processes to SSIS.
Hi....We are generating reports in Excel and PDF and the reports are accessed from a web app interface..
the problem is that when the users print a report generated in Excel from the web app it prints in a veritcal split on paper...This is because the width exceeds the paper width....We do not want to redesign reports ...Is there any method to squeeze Excel data into the availiable page width ( This happens automatically in PDF so issues with it).....Can it be done in code ?
Hello guys/girls:
I am new at reporting services, and would like to know I it is possible to print a reporting service report via code. I have done this with Crystal reports and would like to do it here. I even considered creating a ReportViewer object and setup the report, but not actually bind it to a control on a form. They will not see this report and I really dont want to put it in a report viewer. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Dear ppl,
I have designed a report in Visual Studio 2005. The report have a couple of data regions (table and list) + some free text boxes.. The problem is when i print or export the report to pdf etc, it prints/exports a blank page after every page. e.g. if a report is of 2 pages, it will be printed/exported as Page 1 + Blank Page + Page 2 + Blank Page...
Can any one please tell me what am i missing here?
Awaiting,
I believe this is an extension of the problem described here:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=115351
The service pack for Visual Studio has fixed the problem when I print my report from VS, however when I deploy and print my reports from the SSRS website they are still incorrect.
My SSRS server is running SQL 2005 with service pack 2 installed and the 9.00.3152 9333097 Cumulative hotfix package (build 3152) for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 also applied.
I find it hard to believe the problem was fixed in the developer tool but NOT in the client tool?
How can I develop reports when the output from the developer tool is different to the output from the client tool?
For example I specify a box to be 5cm wide, and when printed from visual studio it is 5cm wide, but when printed from the SSRS website it is not 5cm wide!
Thanks.
Hi,
I had developed my reports using SQL 2005 reporting service. While crerating the report i set the page size to 8.27in Width x 11.69in Height.
I am calling this report in my aspx pages using report viewer.
But the problem is I can't able to set the size of the page to A4 size. When i set the size of the page to A4 while printing the page is divided into two pages.
Is there any way to override the print option in reportviewer where we can set the page size to A4 ?
Thanks and Regards,

Hello all,
When I print the reports ( or export to PDF) in Report Manager, my every alternate page is blank? If the report is just one page report, I get second page as blank when I print or export. The report prints in Landscape format( which should be fine given 8.5 inch height and 11 inch width).
I have played with the interactive Height and other height parameters but with no luck.
My current settings in the rdl file is:
<BottomMargin>0.5in</BottomMargin>
<RightMargin>0.5in</RightMargin>
<PageWidth>11in</PageWidth>
...
<Width>11in</Width>
<InteractiveHeight>1.5in</InteractiveHeight>
<Language>en-US</Language>
<TopMargin>0.5in</TopMargin>
<PageHeight>8.5in</PageHeight>
I would highly appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks

I must confess it has been a long time since I have done any SSRS reporting. I have the following SQL Statement (I will change it to a stored Procedure with parameters once I get the design done):
SELECT
rc.wo_id,
rc.process_id,
rc.item_id,
rc.lot_no AS full_lot_no,
rc.oper_id, rc.seq_no,
CAST(la.attr_value AS DECIMAL(12, 2)) AS weight,
[Code] ....
This gives me the data I want which looks like this:
Rework ID Ingot Oper ID Piece Rework
28 xxxxxx14 5 M88 Route 1
55 xxxxxxx15 5 B106 Route 2
79 xxxxxxx19 5 M68 Route 3
164 xxxxxx234 5 T16 Route 4
xxxxxx234 5 B82 Route 4
The grouping is on the Rework ID. Any of the pieces can be put on any rework route. As you can see, there are 4 routes, but 5 pieces. What I need is for each rework ID to be printed on its own paper even if there is only 1 record for the route. So I would expect 4 pieces of paper, 3 with 1 record, the 4th with two pieces. Is there a setting in the Tablix or report that I can set, or is there an expression I can use?

We have a report that prints correctly (in landscape) in the folder that is deployed to but the linked report in a different folder prints in portrait?
can anyone shed some light on this.
I designed a report in reporting services 2005. When i look at the view layout for the report everything is aligned correctly but if i go to print preview one matrix is shifted up or down. I have tried to put the matrix inside a rectangle but the issue is still present. Does anyone know why this is happening or any suggestions on what to do to fix it.

So I have been asked by our sustainability person to create report from our printing data that actually shows the number of pieces of paper used. This is easy enough for single-sided printing, but when printing in duplex the software does not take into account that 3 printing pages actually equates to 2 pieces of paper. I know this sounds simple, but say I have a print job record that looks like this:
Submitted printed total_pages duplex
8/10/2015 8/10/2015 42 1
This is a print jobs that if done correctly is actually 21 pages( duplex printing). If the job is say total_pages =5 I cant just divide by 2 because its actually using 3 pieces of paper ( yes they are wanting this data don't ask why). How can I adjust some sql to accurately depict 5 pages, front and back, as 3 pieces of paper?
I have deployed a report that is configured for landscape printing. It does print in landscape, however, only the first seven columns appear on the first page and the other five columns appear on the next page. Is there a method, like in print preview setup in MS Excel, where we can scale down the print (like to 80%) so all columns appear on each page?
Thanks!
Perhaps i'm missing something but when i update the master report and then go and run the linked report, it's not updating? Is this a known issue?
If i update the master and re-link the linked report, then all is well? Shouldn't the linked report reflect the master report in real-time and i shouldn't have to re-link the report?
Am i the only one having this problem? Thanks!
Hi,
I created a base report that covers most of my reporting requirements. I created linked reports using different parameters. Is there a way to transfer linked reports from my development report server to the production report server?
I would have used report models but my system architecture uses a different database for every customer. I use a custom connection expression to determine the database by User ID.
Thanks,
Darren
Hi,
I have a report in one folder in Report Manager. Let's call that the 'base' report. I've created a linked report with that 'base' report to another folder. When I go into Visual Studio BIDS, change the report and deploy it to Report Manager, only the base report changes. The linked report does not change.
Is this by design? I thought linking reports gave you the ability to have a base report and numerous other linked reports, all of which would also change if you changed and redeployed the base report. Is that not the case?
Thanks.
Is it possible to tie a linked report to a different data source that the base report?
I have a set of base reports that point to Data Source A.
I have a set of linked reports that I want to point to Data Source B. These linked reports live in a different folder altogether.
Is there a simple way to accomplish this?
Thanks In Advance...
Having just discovered that linked reports do not retain any print formating applied to the original report I thought I'd check out the forum and see if it was just me having a senile moment or if Microsoft had in fact dropped a clanger of massive proportion.
After reading one or two questions from other RS users it does seem as if Microsoft have stuck again and completely diminished a useful feature by stripping it of anything, well....... useful. Well done MS, you once again have my applause for mind-boggling ineptitude of what should be impossible magnitude. Ah, you've got to laugh.
Maybe this and other bugs with RS2005 will be ironed out in Microsoft Reporting Services 2008 - The Search for More Money.
Hi,
we have a problem with linked reports. We are using the same reports that are run on about 70 different Oracle schemas. The credential information is passed when calling the report. This works fine for reports and reports with subreports. But when linking to another reports, the credential information is lost.
Is the a possibuility to pass the datasource credential information to a linked report?
Thanks in advance for your help

Dear all,
I'm using SQL Server 2005 as my backend application. I had strange experience on it, sometime some of my records suddenly disappear without any deletion action.I've check the log files and I've already set a trigger on deletion to copy the deleted record to a history table, but I found nothing. Are there anybody that have same experience like me ?
We are running SQL 7 with a front end that links to the tables through ODBC.In our main table, the user has no way to delete a record through theinterface, though it is possible to delete it by opening the ODBC link.Users would have no reason to delete a record, but one of our records turnedup missing.Now, it's possible that a user may have accidentally deleted the record.But, since users don't have any reason to delete records, and since theydon't access the ODBC links, it seems unlikely (though possible).I was wondering if anyone had every heard of SQL Server ever "losing" arecord that had previously been saved. I checked the nightly backup from thenight after it was added, and the record was there. So either a user deletedit, or somehow it got lost in SQL Server. I have no code that deletesrecords in this table in any way, shape or form, so it couldn't have beenmalfunctioning code.So, while I have a hard time believing that SQL Server would just "lose" arecord, I also know that anything's possible, so I thought I'd ask if anyonehad ever heard of such a thing.Thanks!Neil

Hi,
i've a store procedure has a strange behavior, As soon as created has a good performance , but after some times (indeterminated) it takes more time to be execute.... (up to 70s!!!)
The thing that i've not understood was if i take the query inside to the store i execute it separtely I get result immediately... :eek:
Dropping and re-creating procedure,it become newly fast... I've just scheduled a maintenance plan with index optimization and integrity check, but this seems doesn't work ...
Any idea?
Thanks .
