Hi,
I have created a multi column report (2 columns), which is working fine. However, I need to have a chart on the same report, but it needs to be the width of the page, and not just the width of one column.
If I could put the chart in the report footer / header that would be perfect, but obviously I can't!
Has anyone else come across this, and any ideas / suggestions you have would be appreciated!
Cheers
Chris
I have a requirement where i have to display some data in the form of multi column but the main report should be in a standard one.I have tried by using sub report as multi column and used that in my main report but when i preview the report  it is considering it as a normal report.Do we have any feature in SSRS to have both multi & standard report layouts in one report.

I am trying to get a simple list to wrap and print in multiple columns on my report. I have indicated 3 multi-columns in the report properties and see the multiple columns in the layout, but I must need to do something else because the report is still printing in one column to multiple pages. This should all fit on 1 page if the list will wrap or snake as it says it the directions for using multi-column reports.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
I have a multi-column report with a page header that spans the width of the report. Whenever I close the report and reopen it, the header is changed to the width of the column. This isn't a real big deal because I deploy it with the header across the whole page; but once in a blue moon I accidentally hit the F5 key (which I am used to using for refresh in other environments I work in) and the report gets redeployed with the messed up header. Is there anyway to stop RS from automatically adjusting the page header?
And is there anyway to disable the F5 key from deploying the reports. I do use it to build and run windows apps, and don't want to change that, but I don't want to deploy 80+ reports when I accidentially hit it.
Thanks.
When I use the PageBreakAtEnd on the table or on a group in the table, all it does is create a new column of the column report.
I'd want it to start a new page, how can I do this ? Should I work around this issue using code ?
Background: What I need to achieve is a report with 2 columns where the list of products in category 1 are listed in the left column and then snake to the 2nd column on the same page, then to column 1 on page 2, column 2 on page 2, etc...
When it comes to category 2, it should start a fresh new page regardless of whether the previous product was rendered in column 1 or column 2.
I get the snaking to work using the "Columns" property of the report Body. However page breaks do not start a new page, they just start a new column.
Hi out there
It seams that I have run into a know and apparently unsolved problem.
How do I force a page break, not column break, on a multi-column report?
I have 4 columns, my data is grouped and is setup to page break after each group.
But all I get is a column break, due to RS thinking of column's as pages.
Several people have posted about the same problem, but I can't find a solution. See...

Hi,
I have a need to create a report that has a graph at the top and a table at the bottom. The graph at the top can optionally be made hidden because they cause problems when exported to Excel as images. However, when I set the Hidden property of the graph to true, positions of all items on the report remain absolute. Meaning of course that the table that is located half-way down the page remains half-way down the page and there is a lot of nothing on the first half where the graph used to be.
It would be desirable to have the ability to have the table move up when the graph is not visible, however it obviously doesn't do it automatically and also refuses me the ability to change the position with an expression.
Any advice is appreciated, thank you!
Hi
I am using SQL Server 2008 SSRS Feb CTP
I am using a standard graph report where i want to hide some of the series fields.
This is not working at all.
I hid all the series fields but all were still showing.
Is this a bug in SQL 2008 or am i missing something.
All i did was right click on the series -> Series Properties -> Visibility -> Select Hide
Thanks in Advance

I'm making some reports that are made for getting printed. I currently have three groups of reports, each group having four charts (four A4 papers/group). To cut down on the sheer number of papers on the boards I've been asked to merge these charts so that we'll have all three groups in one chart. This works fine for three of the charts (two line charts and one column chart), where the results gets neatly organized in group order. Where I ran into problems was the last chart..
The last chart is a stacked column chart. With one group, it works quite well; the x-axis is by year/week, and for each week there's a bar where the lower part is "done" and the upper part is "failed".
Now when doing this graph with multiple groups (groups as series), it doesn't put the different groups beside each other as I would've wished, instead it piles them on top of each other as if it was a 100% stacked column.
So the question is; is there some way to make a stacked column graph with multiple series that are one stacked bar per group instead of having all of them stacked on top of each other? Am I just missing some small detail here?
I developed a rdlc report. I have a graph chart. Sometimes the value of a label can =0. If the value =0 I want to hide the labelname. However, I also have dummy values =0. This is so that I can have spaces between the bars. The dummy values labels isn't shown in the graph. This works great. I need to add to the expression that if the name of the label isn't dummy but the value =0 to hide the labelname.
The data from sql:

Expression in graph under chart data->category groups->category group properties->label:
=Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.SWITCH(Fields!LabelName.Value = "aTotalForRetire", "Retirement", Fields!LabelName.Value = "cTotalForRelatives", "Relatives", Fields!LabelName.Value = "eTotalForDisability",
"Disability")
The result is below. I want to hide the label relatives as in this example the value=0. It will not always be the case. How can I do that?
I am developing several charts with column type and sub type as stacked. There is a requirement from the users that they want an option to choose the type of chart.
Is it possible to change chart type dynamically from say Column type to Line type based on user option in front-end?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance !!
Hi
I am very new to analysis services and using MDX.
I want to select data from a cube using an MDX statement and show the data on a graph report.
I want to select the daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly descriptions all in one column to make it easy to represent it on the report.
Then set the 'Date' Column to the x-axis and the Value column to the y-axis.
The user also must have the option to not show certain periods (Switch of daily and weekly)
My MDX works when I select from the SQL Management Studio but as soon as I copy the MDX over to the SSRS Report Designer is splits the daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly values into seperate columns which makes it very difficult to report on.
----
Code
SELECT NON EMPTY { ([Measures].[ValueAfterLogic])} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { [KPI Values].[KPI Name].[KPI Name].ALLMEMBERS * ORDER(
CASE 1 WHEN 1 Then [Time].[Hierarchy].[Day Of Month] ELSE NULL END +
CASE 1 WHEN 1 Then [Time].[Hierarchy].[Week Of Year Name] ELSE NULL END +
CASE 1 WHEN 1 Then [Time].[Hierarchy].[Month] ELSE NULL END +
CASE 1 WHEN 1 Then [Time].[Hierarchy].[Quarter Of Year Name] ELSE NULL END +
CASE 1 WHEN 1 Then [Time].[Hierarchy].[YEAR] ELSE NULL END,
[Measures].[ValueAfterLogic],DESC)
}
DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM
(SELECT ( {[KPI Values].[KPI Id].&[{97754C54-AB43-403D-A2C2-21C04BDE93E3}] } ) ON COLUMNS
FROM [Workplace])
WHERE ( [KPI Values].[KPI Id].&[{97754C54-AB43-403D-A2C2-21C04BDE93E3}])
CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS
The case statement will take paramter values when finished
----------------end of code portion
Is this possible or is it suppose to 'split' the columns when moving to SSRS.

Here's tricky one.
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
Essentially, I want to create a for each loop.
Any ideas?
How do I display multiple parameter values on report page from a multi-value report parameter. For example, I have a report parameter where users can select multiple attendance codes and I want them displayed at the top of the report after it's run.
Currently, only the first value is showing on the report.
Thanks.
Hi All,
I have a question, How to user the Multi value in Visual Studio Report Designer.
My dataset contains the following
Select empno,empname,basicpay,deptcd from employee where deptcd in (substring(@gdept,1,4))
Here variable gdept is the report parameter. I am passing the value.
it works fine with single value.
( the source of gdept is a another dataset to list the deparment code+name,
Example
DEP1 - COMPUTER
DEP2 - ADMIN
DEP3 - FINANCE
)
when I preview, i have a combo box to select the department.
If I choose one deparment, it works fine.
If I choose more than one department or select all I have error message
"substring function requires 3 aruguments."
what is wrong is the query
Please advise.
Cheers,

I am trying to exclude records from a table where the ID column is the same but the Mail code Column is multi-valued.For Example: (the table looks like....)
ID Mail_code
111111 XNT
111111 N11
111111 XNC
222222 XNC
222222 XNL
333333 XNC
So, if there is any ID that has a value of XNC, I want to exclude the ID all together from my output regardless of the other values.
I have two tables, one a data table, the other a product table. I want to perform a join on the two tables with values distributed into columns based on the value in the month field.
data_table
product_code month value
350 1 10
350 2 20
350 3 30
product_table
product_code profit_center
350 4520
result_view
product_code profit_center mon1 mon2 mon3
350 4520 10 20 30
My current query gives the following result
result_view
product_code profit_center mon1 mon2 mon3
350 4520 10 0 0
350 4520 0 20 0
350 4520 0 0 30

Hi,Would like to know the performance differenece between Multi-columnIndex vs Single Column Indexes. Let's say I have a table with col1,col2, col3 along with a primary key column and non-indexed columns.In queries, I will use col1, col2, and col3 together and some timesjust one or two of these three columns. My questions is, should Icreate one index contains col1, col2, and col3, or create 3 seperatedcolumns. I.e. each column has its own index. Any performancedifference?Thanks a lot.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHI there.
I have been working on this for quite some time and I can not figure out what I am doing wrong.
I have a report filter called ItemFilter and I have declared as a report parameter where the multi value checkbox is checked. The values from this filter are coming from the item table.
SO the users drilldown on the filter when they run the report an select the Items that they would like to display info for. I had the following code before in the where
where
([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ = @itemfilter). This only worked if they selected on item from the list.
I want them to be able to select multiple Items or all. The code above did not work because there were commas separating one item from the other and I was getting an error.
I changed to
whrere
([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ IN (@itemfilter)).
Now this only returns the first item that I enter on my Itemfilter parameter.
Does anyone have any clue in regards to this ?? I am sure I am using the wrong syntax, but I do not know what to change it too.
Thanks
I currently have two different reports that I print and then combine together, with multiple records printed with both reports. This works ok but I'd like to combine them. I need to still have two pages print. Is there a way to combine these? The db is being used for an event where I need to get the pages printed quickly so if they can be combined it would sure help out.

Hi all
Basically I had 2 paramater which ComputerName and MemberName.
The membername was set as Multi-Value as sets as follow:
Label: Value:
Exclude Domain Admins Domain Admins
Exclude Local Install Local Install
And the query is:
SELECT id,
ComputerName,
GroupName,
MemberName,
ScanDate
FROM GROUPMEMBERS WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE ComputerCN LIKE '%' + @ComputerName + '%'
AND MemberName NOT IN (@MemberName)
ORDER BY ComputerName ASC
The prompt is like this:
Computer Name [ ] Excluded by [ ]
The issue is in the second prompt I have to select
"something" which is I don't want to. I want the user to have this parameter as an optional.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I have a parameterized main report that contains a link to a sub report with parameters. Then from the sub report I have a link that takes you back to main report. If I use multi value parameters or single value parameters the links going back and forth between the two reports works just dandy, when I run it on my PC. However when I deploy the reports to the Web Server, the link going from the sub report back to the main report only works if the parameters are single select. Going from the Main to the Sub it doesn€™t matter.
This is the error I get using multi select parameters going from the sub report back to the main.
The path of the item "(null)" is not valid. The path must be less than 260 characters long and must start with slash. Other restrictions apply. (rsInvalidItemPath)
Any suggestions?
I am trying to use a Multi-Value Report Parameter to determine Visibility, I found this to work great when I only had 2 values (0 or 1), but I have 5 now (0, 1, 2, 3, 4).
I can see what is happening, but I don't know how to write the Visibility Expression to get it to work for all conditions. I can clearly see that when more than one option is selected from the drop down box the Report Parameter goes from Parameters!ReportSelect.Value(0) to
Parameters!ReportSelect.Value(0)
Parameters!ReportSelect.Value(1)
Parameters!ReportSelect.Value(2)
Parameters!ReportSelect.Value(3)
Parameters!ReportSelect.Value(4)
one for each number of variables selected. I need to evaluate for all possible values and if any of them are the one selected I want it to be visable.
Currently I am using this expression on Visability:
=IIf(Parameters!ReportSelect.Value(0)= 1, FALSE, TRUE)
But this only works if the "=1" is the 1st one selected.
I need it to work for all 4 options, so that all selected will be visible.
Does this make sense?
I have 6 columns:
Column1a, Column1, Column2a, Column2, Column3a, Column3
I need a statement that will go through the whole table as follows:
For each row, if column3 is not null then return column3 as columnB and column3a as ColumnA.
If column3 is null then if column2 is not null then return column2 as columnB and column2a as columnA.
If column3 & column2 is null then return column1 as columnB and column1a as columnA.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Hi there,
My 'where' clause contains the following...
startdate <= @Date AND enddate > @Date
Should I put one index on 'startDate' and another on 'endDate' or should I have one index that covers both columns?
I don't know what the difference would be.
