I'm trying to output all the values selected through a multivalue parameter, but I am having difficulties. In the text box, the parameter contains only four member functions (value, label, count, ismultivalue). However, to output a value or label for the parameter you need to specify an index in the form of:
Parameters!Names.Value(0)
Ideally, I would like to be able to obtain all these values with a function call, but it doesn't look like there is one. Any ideas of how to get all the values?
Hi. I am fairly new to reporting. I have a report that currently displays queried data in both a table and a matrix. I'd like for the data that is displayed to be based off of my report parameters. I have three, all of which are multivalue. Currently, I am able to display the report, based on the only the first value of TWO of the three parameters. I tried using the dataset parameters, but was not successful with linking them to my report parameters. Please help! In addition, is there a way to set multivalue parameters to only display distinct values? Thanks, in advance, for any help.
I need to set a label in my report when all the values in a certain multivalue parameter are selected. In other words, i would need to check whether this parameter has the value "Select All" selected or not. How do i accomplish this?
i am trying to build a report that uses multivalue parameters - the report is a simple listing report that lists out a list of cases as a table - the data is obtained from a view which just returns all details for all cases
there is no user input for the selection details - am going to be calling the report and passing over the parameter values directly to it.
there are several parameters for the report - they all default to "All"
for each of these parameters, i need to be able to either use the default value of "ALL" or to enter a list (comma separated ?)
q1) could i just enter the list as a string comma separated list (rather than as multivalued parameters) and then use this list to filter the data using the FILTERS tab on the dataset
q2) if q1 is not possible, if i use multivalue parameters, how do i get my list of parameters into the report as the application calling the report just has a list of values
I have a report (Say Report 1)which is asking for a multivalue parameter Period. The user selects three period from the dropdown list available for the Parameter. Lets say that the user select 0407,0507,0607. Now is this report 1 there is a particular field which is linked to another sub report. So if the top level Report 1 supplies the revenue for 3 regions say for the periods selected then clicking on any of the regions would open a second detailed report, say Report 2 for the three periods as selected.
Till this everything is fine.
Now the problem is that in this detailed Report 2 there would be a particular text box as "Click here to naviagate back to parent report". So that when the user clicks on this cell he is taken back to the parent report, Report 1 which was originally generated for the 3 periods.
Can anyone please advise as to how the Multivalue Parameter which was passed from Report 1 to Report 2 can again be looped back to Report 1 from Report 2.
Greetings all trying to get a multivalue parameter to accept either typed in data ex: 111111111,111111112 or if I want to return all id numbers type in %. Problem is when I test it by typing in 111111111,111111112 it throws an error saying " Incorrect syntax near ','.
I can enter 111111111 or % and get results, the error comes when I try to type in two or more id numbers. the parameter in the dataset looks like
where a.id_number LIKE (@id_number+ '%')
any suggesstions? Im sure there are threads out there but Im pressed to meet a deadline and wanted to see if there were any quick solutions
Is there any way to restrict the user from selecting the parameters. For example: I have a list of 100 values in a multi-value parameter. I want to to restrict the user to select at the most N number of values.
If possible, process only the N number of values will also do.
I've created a line chart in my report which lists number of transactions by month. I've also created a report to list transactions by day. My goal is for the user to select a month and link the report to the graph with the selected month divided up into days (in other words, the user wants to see the number of transactions for each day in the selected month).
Anyway, everything is working perfectly except for one thing. In the list of parameters that I am passing to the report for each day, I want to pass a multivalue parameter which contains all the transaction IDs the user selected in creating the report (these are supplied by a multivalue parameter). However, in the parameter dialog box where it asks for a value to send to the awaiting parameter, I do not know how to supply more than one value. If I need to pass one value, it will work fine. However, I would like to do something like:
JOIN(Parameters!TransactionID.value, ",")
for the value of TransactionID, but when I generate the report it is not accepting the values. I'm pretty sure its just a format issue, and I just need to know how exactly I should pass these values.
I already understand that when passing multivalue parameters in a URL you need something like:
TransactionID=1&TransactionID=2
...in order to select multiple values. However, this is a slightly different situation. I'm really running out of ideas, so any help would be much appreciated.
I am using a 2005 SSAS cube as a datasource for 2005 SSRS report with multivalue parameters. I use the design mode query builder to generate my MDX. I then add my parameter to my parameter field in the filters section. The name and value of the parameter in the dataset editor is as follows:
I then proceed to layout mode and then open up report parameters. I then check the multivalue box and select non-queried available values. I choose non-queried radio button because I want my asp page to be passing in the parameters, not a dropdown list.
The problem is that when I try and preview the report and I type in just one parameter I get the following: "Query (1, 437) The restrictions imposed by the CONTRAINED flag in the STROSET function were violoated"
After looking through a couple of forums I found that adding the following Parameter value in the data tab and dataset editor would help me out a bit: "[Facility].[Facility Number].&["+Parameters!FacilityFacilityNumber.Value+"]"
Ok so now (in layout mode) I type in one parameter and I get a report back, BUT when I try to type in a second or more parameter I get the same error as before: "Query (1, 437) The restrictions imposed by the CONTRAINED flag in the STROSET function were violoated"
Here is the MDX query that I am using for this report:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Claim Count], [Measures].[Item Reasons Count], [Measures].[Charged Amount] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Facility].[Facility Number].[Facility Number].ALLMEMBERS * [Claim Status Codes].[CLaim Status Code].[CLaim Status Code].ALLMEMBERS * [Claim Status Codes].[Claim Status Description].[Claim Status Description].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@FacilityFacilityNumber, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Claims Remittance]) CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS
Please, if anybody know's what I am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate it.......I have to have my report accept non-queried multivalued parameters. Thanks
We have many reports with cascading multivalue parameters. The reports and the parameters work as expected within the BI development and when deployed to the RS server. The issue we are having is that when we go to the Report Manager webpage for one of these reports and create a New Subscription the report parameters in the subscription field fail to populate. The first one or two parameters may properly populate but the 3rd, 4th, and 5th fail to populate. As a result we can not select the parameters to submit the subscription.
We have two example reports where one report uses only sql (text) and the other report uses only stored procedures. Both reports have 2 or more cascading parameters.
Any known issues with cascading multivalue parameters in the Report Manager subscription view?
Inside some TSQL programmable object (a SP/or a query in Management Studio)I have a parameter containing the name of a StoreProcedure+The required Argument for these SP. (for example it's between the brackets [])
I can't change thoses SP, (and i don't have a nice output param to cach, as i would need to change the SP Definition)All these SP 'return' a 'select' of 1 record the same datatype ie: NVARCHAR. Unfortunately there is no output param (it would have been so easy otherwise. So I am working on something like this but I 'can't find anything working

Hi everyone, can anyone help me please I have a stored procedure that works quite well and returns one of the following codes, 1 2 3 or 4 which is dependant on business criteria. This sp works well and satsisfies all the criteria etc. I am calling this SP in asp.net (c#) like this using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["blah"].ConnectionString)) { int? intSQLCheck = null; con.Open(); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("check_values", con); cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@param_clothing_id", this.DropDownList2.SelectedValue.ToString())); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@empNo", this.DropDownList1.SelectedValue.ToString())); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@createdBy", this.txtEmpNo.Text.ToString())); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@price", this.txtPrice.Text)); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@qty", this.txtQty.Text)); //cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@returnValue", 0)); cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@returnVal", 99)); cmd.Parameters["@returnVal"].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
What I would like to do know is use a variable intSqlCheck to hold the return value from the SP (and then do some processing of business logic using the variable) Any ideas anyone please
Hi, I have a form with a detailsview and a sqldatasource. The sqldatasource uses a stored procedure as the select command. This stored procedure requires 2 input parameters and returns 3 output parameters. A button on the form is enabled or disabled depending on the value of the output parameters. When the page loads, I get a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" message, caused by the null value of an output parameter. SQL Profiler shows that the input parameters are correct, and if I run the stored procedure directly, it's okay. Can anybody tell me why I wouldn't get the output parameters? Thanks,Neil
I am new to SQL and trying to work out how to do this
i have a table called projectAllocationLog with 4 fields, there can be many users of any particular project, ie ID,projectID, User, Date 4 5000, 6, 10/02/2007 3 5000, 12, 08/07/2005 2 5004, 13, 08/05/2003 1 5000, 14, 04/05/2001
I want to write a stored proceedure that I can pass in the projectID, and return the most current user, this will always be the user with the highest ID for the project
ie for project 5000 it will be user 6
I was thinking along the lines of for each project select the top 1 from the table. where I can pass in the projectID, and pass out the ID field of the table. i am just not sure how to start this.
I am trying to select multiple values from the row with the max id,and output them within my stored procedure. How would I combine thefollowing two rows so that I only need to use "from mytable whereIDnum = (select (max(IDnum)) from mytable))" once. I have at least 8other outputs I will be setting and would like this to work moreefficiently than setting each individually... if possible.set @outmtd = (select outmtd from mytable where IDnum = (select(max(IDnum)) from mytable))set @outytd = (select outytd from mytable where IDnum = (select(max(IDnum)) from mytable))Thanks for any help you can giveMatt
Hello, i got this working using vb.net but becuase I'm learning asp.net I thought it would be a ggood idea to replicate the same function using C# as well1
The problem is I receive an output parameter through a stored procedure which is the users id.
I want to add this to a cookie as I know I'll be using it again and again, but the error I keep getting is cannot cxonvert type 'string' to type 'int'.
I've tried using conversion functions to make the value returned into an int value but I had no success!
I did this -
int id = (int)mycommand.Parameters["@id"].Value;
and then try to save that to the cookie but the error keeps appearing, I've also tried using the parse and ToInt32 function but the same/similar problems - any ideas?
Hi all,Is there a data transfer difference between returning a datareader that only has one row or using output parameters? For instance, I have a login page that shows the last login, member since, display level, number of file views, etc. Currently I am returning a datareader that reads one row and assigns this data to labels. But would it be quicker to use OUTPUT parameters instead of using a dataread and just get the values from the command object?ThanksJosh
When I call a proc with one input parameter and two output parameters, (all the three parameters having defaults in the proc), I was expecting to see these values defaulted to in the proc. But apparently, this not the case. Could someone tell me what am I doing wrong here? Appreciate your time.
USE Pubs GO

Hi can any one explain why when I specify an outparameter as a string I only get back the first letter of the string when I call the procedure from .net?

I call this proc via a vb.net program using a command.executenonquery and then look at the parameter.
For some reason I only get the first letter of the string back! i.e. if the string is LSDNET/nik I get 'L'.
If I run the proc from visual studio step in to procecure it works fine!
the vb I'm using is... (the createaddparameter simply creates a bunch of parameters to add to a command -with the specified names and dbtypes).
I'm obviously missing a trick but what it is I can't see. I seem to be able to pass all other data types back easily!
Dim LoadUserCommand As New SqlCommand
'create add command Dim CreateAddParameter() As String = {"@UserGUID", _ "@UserPACSName", "@PASName", "@UserPACSPassword", _ "@UserPACSPasswordIV", "@UserFriendlyName", "@Message", "@MessageNumber"} Dim UpdateDBTypes() As DbType = {DbType.Guid, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, _ DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.StringFixedLength, DbType.Int32}

Dim tmpDomainName As String tmpDomainName = LoadUserCommand.Parameters(6).Value.ToString 'read the name back
Dim tmpMsgNumber = LoadUserCommand.Parameters(7).Value 'read the message number back
Select Case tmpMsgNumber 'not written yet as I haven't got this far!!! Case 1 'pacs username already exists Case 2 'pas username already exists Case 3 'execute fine and all names updated
can somebody let me understand how this Output parameters works in sp_executesql / Dynamic TSQL
I want to store a integer value resulting from executing a dynamic query. I was trying to follow the syntax but to be honest I didn't get it, and resulted in err. So can somebody help me in understanding how it works and how and where to declare the variables to be output and what command does that Output etc.
i built a stored procedure with inserting in to customers table. i have one column with identity. so want to take that identity column value in the same stored procedure. so how can i write that procedure with insert in to statements in that stored procedures.
can any one tell me. also how to get that value in ado.net 2.0. friends please tell me.
I am able to perform my Stored Procedure, but I can't figure out how to get access to the OUTPUT parameters!Here is my code: Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Dim mySqlDataSource As SqlDataSource = New SqlDataSource
' Add Some Parameter Dim someParameter As Parameter = New Parameter("someParameterName", TypeCode.String) someParameter.DefaultValue = New String("Some Value") someParameter.Direction = Data.ParameterDirection.Output
Here is my problem: I have a strored procedure that inserts some records
into one table and then selects some records from another table at the end.
The stored procedure takes several parameters, first one of them is marked as
OUTPUT. I'm using it to return an id of the inserted record. The procedure is called from asp.net code with first parameter set as ParameterDirection.InputOutput (tried with just Output as well). Now for the problem: if the the select statement at the end returns 0 records everything works and i my first parameter contains the @@IDENTITY value from the insert statement like it is supposed to.
If the select statement at the end returns 1 or more records my output parameter is not updated at all and contains the same value as before the procedure was run. All the records are inserted correctly.
if i try to return the @@identity as a plain select statement instead of through the parameter i get System.DBNull.
I hope you can shed some light on this for me. Here is my stored procedure:
INSERT INTO INQUIRY (LibraryName, ContactName, Address, City, State, Zip, Phone, Email, Comment) VALUES(@libraryName, @contactName, @address, @city, @state, @zip, @phone, @email,@comment)
--i tried including this statement at the end as well but that did not do the
--trick either
select @inquiryId=@@IDENTITY FROM INQUIRY
set nocount on declare @separator_position int -- This is used to locate each separator character declare @objectId varchar(200) -- this holds each array value as it is returned
if(@productIds is not null) begin while patindex('%,%' , @productIds) <> 0 begin select @separator_position = patindex('%,%' , @productIds) select @objectId= left(@productIds, @separator_position - 1) INSERT INTO PRODUCT_INQUIRY_LOOKUP (ProductId,InquiryId) VALUES(@objectId, @inquiryId) select @productIds = stuff(@productIds, 1, @separator_position, '') end end set nocount off
Select Distinct Email from vPRODUCT_CONTACT WHERE ProductId in (Select ProductId From Product_Inquiry_Lookup Where InquiryId=@inquiryId)
I've an existing SQL 2000 Stored Procedure that return data in many (~20) output parameters.
I'm starting to use it in a .Net c# application and it seems to insist that I setup all the output parameters: SqlParameter param = cmd.Parameters.Add("@BackgroundColour",SqlDbType.TinyInt); param.Direction=ParameterDirection.Output; even if I only need the value of a single one. Is this right? Is there a way to avoid coding every one every time?
EXEC('SELECT COUNT(docid) AS Total FROM docs WHERE ' + @QueryFilter)I want to get the cound as an output parameter.I can get output parameters to work only when I dont use EXEC. I need to use EXEC for this case since @QueryFilter gets generated in the stored procedure based on some some other data.How can I get that count using ouput parameter?
I am using SqlDataSource programmatically in my data access layer - mainly for convenience but it does generally work fine with no obvious performance issues. The problem I have is with getting back an output parameter. I have an insert-type stored procedure (in Sql Server 2005) operating on a table with an identity column as the primary key: ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[InsertAlbum](@ArtistID int, @Title nvarchar(70), @NewID int OUTPUT)ASDECLARE @err intINSERT INTO dbo.ALBUMS (ARTISTID, TITLE)VALUES (@ArtistID, @Title)SELECT @err = @@error IF @err <> 0 RETURN @errSET @NewID = SCOPE_IDENTITY() This works fine when run from Sql Server Management Studio and @NewID has the correct value. My data access code is roughly as follows: dsrc = New SqlDataSource()dsrc.ConnectionString = ConnectionStringdsrc.InsertCommand = "InsertAlbum"dsrc.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.StoredProcedureDim parms As ParameterCollection = dsrc.InsertParametersDim newid As IntegerAddParameter(parms, "ArtistID", TypeCode.Int32, ParameterDirection.Input, 0, album.ArtistID)AddParameter(parms, "Title", TypeCode.String, ParameterDirection.Input, 0, album.Title)Dim p As New Parameter("NewID", TypeCode.Int32)p.Direction = ParameterDirection.Outputparms.Add(p)Try Dim rv As Integer = dsrc.Insert() newid = parms("NewID") Return newidCatch ex As Exception Return -1End Try The row is inserted into the database, but however I try to define and add the NewID parameter it never has a value. Has anyone tried to do this and can tell me what I am doing wrong? Jon
