How do you make a live link in SQL 7 to another database? I currently do such
things in Access 97 but how do you do it in SQL? I just want to keep a permanent live link to a table in another database.
Thank you in advance.
Please consider enhancing SQL 2005 Reporting Services to provide the ability to disable Clickthrough Reports (Live Links) at the Report and Export Function level. Today you can only enable or disable Clickthrough Reports at the View/Model Level for all Report Builder reports.

Is there a way of searching tables and linking to the relationship used.
I need to find a list of tutors and the session they teach (both available in a session table)
i then need to find the list of members that are enrolled onto each session.
In the session table the relationship allows me to view what members are on each session but i cannot find a code that allows me to see what tutors teach what session and what members attend these lessons.
I spoke to my tutor who did not offer too much help but did say it may be possible to use the "AND" function

Not sure where to place this question...
We have a bunch of SQL databases that are used for a similar number of IIS sites (we are talking of close to 500 sites), dealing with a .NET e-learning application
While we manage to create a virtual folder for the e-learning content, we do have one database for each site. So, when it comes to update the whole platform, we are talking about running one script per site, which may take about 5 seconds per user per site. With a total of 300.000 users and sites, it may come to more than 17 days running the update script.
Is there a way similar to that on IIS to create a symbolic link from one table in one database to another table in a diferent database in a diferent or same server?
Thanks,

I have a Summary page on a report and then a detail page. FOr eg on the summary pg, I have a field called 'Name'. eg summary will be on name ie 'A', B, C ETC.. When the user clicks on the summary name ie A, he should be able to directly go to that details for that particular name ie details of 'A'.
How can I achieve this, will be probably thr parameters, but not sure how.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been informed that all my keyword search solutions are susceptible to SQL injection attacks. Does anyone have links discussing basic ' multiple ' keyword search solutions? I would think this is a very common routine (perhaps so much so than only newbies like myself do not know it). I have read the posts about escaping ', doing replace " ' ", " '' ", using parameters and yet every multiple keyword solution I come up with is said to be injection prone.
Example: visitor enters: Tom's antiquesinto a TextBox control and the C# code behind securely generates the below call to the database.
SELECT L_Name, L_City, L_State, L_Display FROM tblCompanies WHERE L_Kwords LIKE '%' + 'Tom's' + '%' AND L_Kwords LIKE '%' + 'antiques' + '%' AND L_Display = 1 RETURN
I understand that concantenting string parts using an array and then passing the sewn together string to a stored procedure exposes it to injection. I hope that my single keyword routine below is secure, if it is not then I am not understanding how parameterized SP are supposed to be constructed to protect against injection.string CompanyName;CompanyName = TextBox1.Text;PROCEDURE CoNameSearch @CompanyName varchar(100)AS SELECT DISTINCT L_Name, L_Phone, L_City, L_State, L_Zip, L_Enabled, L_Display FROM tblLinksWHERE (L_Name LIKE @CompanyName + '%') AND L_Enabled = 1 AND L_Display = 1 ORDER BY L_NameRETURN

Typical Date Query
How to query a table with a selection on a datetime column, for example, find all items for the date 2006-01-14. This isn’t really a script, but it is one of the most common questions about datetime.
Select
*
from
NyTable
Where
MyDateColumn >= '20060114' and
MyDateColumn < '20060115'
Notice that you are asking for greater than or equal to the beginning of the date, and less than the following date. You can apply the same general query for any range of days. This is almost always the best way to write a query of this type, because it allows SQL Server to use any index that exists on the datetime column, and it uses less resources than a query that applies a function to the datetime column.
Notice that the query dates are in format YYYYMMDD; you should always use this format for date strings. This is SQL Servers "universal" date format that works the same with all settings of DATEFIRST. Any other format may produce an error if the setting of DATEFIRST is not exactly what you expect.
For datetime strings use universal format
YYYYMMDD HH:MM:SS.MIL (20061231 23:59:59.997).
Uses of the DATETIME data type
The DATETIME data type can be used to hold four different types of date/time values:
1. Date and time – a date and time together
Example: 2006-07-15 12:06:15.333
2. Date – a date only stored as the time at midnight:
Example: 2006-07-15 00:00:00.000
3. Time – a time only stored as time on the DATETIME zero date, 1900-01-01.
Example: 1900-01-01 12:06:15.333
4. Elapsed time – a difference between two DATETIME values, stored as the time since the DATETIME zero point, 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000.
Example: 1900-01-03 14:12:34.443
The actual usage of the value is only defined in the context of the application. There is no way to specify that a DATETIME is to be used for a date and time, date only, time only, or elapsed time. It is possible to insure that a column in a table contains date only or time only by adding a constraint to a column, but is is necessary that the application format the DATETIME value properly.
The following script briefly demonstrates the four different ways to use DATETIME, and several conversions from one type to another: date and time to date only, date and time to time only, date only plus time only to date and time, two date and time values to elapsed time, and elapsed time to individual days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds.

Finding the Start of Time Periods
One of the most common questions is how to remove the time from a datetime so that you end up with just a date. In other words, change 2006/12/13 02:33:48.347 to 2006/12/13 00:00:00.000. The following links have functions that will find the start of Century, Decade, Year, Quarter, Month, Week, Day, Hour, 30 Minutes, 20 Minutes, 15 Minutes, 10 Minutes , 5 Minutes , x number of Minutes ,Minute , or Second.

Hi all,
Heres the setup...
We have an asp application that runs the reportserver URL for the selected report, passing it through parameters. This opens the report viewer and the report runs.
The problem im having is that one report is not working as expected. When the report is run from report manager, everything works fine. The links do what they're meant to (they link to other reports passing through parameters). When the report is run from our asp application with the report viewer, the links fail.... they dont pass through the correct values or sometimes dont pass through a value at all.
Were the report viewer and report manager applications developed seperately?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

We moved to reporting services about a year ago and have been migrating reportings from our old platform webfocus which when we exported to PDF would retain the links.

Dear Sirs,
We use NLB + ISA , Win2003/SP1 + Reporting Services 2005
We use host name URL to access Reporting Serives reports, like http://www.hostname.com/Reportserver?rc%3aParameters=false&%2MyReports%2f....
When reports have grouping , the drill down images(+/-) and links failed to be displayed. We checked the HTML source code and found, instead of the reative path, the image/link URLs are using FULL path and using IP address, like http://10.102.40.55/Reportserver/.....
Because the company policy do not allow use IP to access reports , those drill down images and links failed to be displayed.
How can I configure Reporting Service to use host name or relative path for the drill down images and links.
PS:
We have changed the <UrlRoot> in rsreportserver.config and <ReportServerUrl> in rsWebApplication.config to use host name, but no worked.
Best regards,

Hi, guys,
Thanks for your kind attention.
Just wonder is there any way to get the link value on dependency network? Yes, I know we can move along the slider to get the link strength between different attributes. However, it will be more convinced that if we can get the value of the links and say we have a standard for it to judge if the link is truly strong enough?
Thanks in advance for your advices.
And I am very much looking forward to hearing from you.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
