Postscript Fonts Installed On Local Machine Do Not Appear In Report Designer Font Dropdown
May 9, 2008
I installed Postscript fonts on my local machine and they show up in the font dropdown for Office applications, but when I open a report in Visual Studio 2005 report designer, the Postscript fonts do not display in the font dropdown. How do I get the new fonts to be accessible in the report designer?
The current way I have my asp.net 2.0 web app running reports is, based on an interface the user selects the criteria for a report. The .RDL file is created dynamically based on the user's selections. I then need to SOAP the dynamically created report to the report server and then the report runs fine. BUT it requires Adminstrative rights to do this. Can this be accomplished without giving the local machine admin rights. I am sorry if this question has been answered before but i have not been up here in a while.
Is there a X64 version of Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components from Feature pack for SQL Server 2005?
I have installed an X86 version on the AMD64 machine. But when I open a sql 2000 dts package, there is always a warning window.
The Message is as follows:
SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer components are required to edit DTS packages. Install the special Web download, "SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components" to use this feature. (Microsoft.SqlServer.DtsObjectExplorerUI)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.ObjectExplorerUI.LegacyActionBase.CreateLegacyDesigner() at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.ObjectExplorerUI.OpenLegacyPackageAction.Act(INodeInformation nodeInfo) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.ObjectExplorerUI.DtsServerMenuItem.Invoke(INodeInformation parent, String mode, String assembly, String type)
There are two same assemblys called 'Microsoft.SqlServer.DtsObjectExplorerUI' in the GAC, and one is GAC cache type, the other is zap cache type.
I have MSDE install on my machine with Office 2000. I have a sql script(db.sql) that create the database(db1) and its objects. I would like to run this script on this machine. Is there a utility like SQL ISQL.exe in the MSDE version?
Hello Everyone, I am trying to install SQL 2005 on my machine. All I want is the functionality that I enjoyed with SQL 2000- Query Analyzer and Enterprise Manager. For some reason, the version of SQL 2005 that I am installing is only giving me an option for the Configuration Manger which does not provide access to the Management Console. It is my understanding that I need the Management Console to create databases, look at tables in my databases, etc., etc. just like I did in Enterprise Manager. Is there anyone who can tell me what I'm doing wrong? Currently, the cd that I have says SQL Developer Edition. Thanks.

Hi, i have sql server 2005 standard installed on my machine. I want to work on express edition and learn about it but on the installation its gets stuck because a higher version is installed. If the express version is free why cant have both versions installed on my machine. Thank you.
I have SQL Server 2005 express installed on my machine, and I was wondering if there is any way to have an asp.net 2.0 web service hosted by a different company be able to send sql commands to the sql server on my machine.
Is there any windows command or any tool which would tell me what all 3rd party s/w's or Filtered drivers on my server (like antivirus, monitoring tools like Diskeeper or any I/O throttling s/w etc..)
I used a textbox with strikethrough font in my report. In preview, the report has that font and also in Print. But exporting to PDF has no strikethrough font. (Export to excel has this font). Can anybody help to resolve this.
After I use the report builder to create a generic report, how do I actually get that report into the report designer so that I can modify it more effectivly?
The issue that I have now is that the file on the report server is not a .rdl file and if I simply save it as one and then bring it into VS to modify it the code file is a html structure rater than a XML file type.
hi there - I'm praying someone here can shed some light on this - after many google and web searches, I have found users with similar issues, but have yet to find a solution. Problem: I have recently upgraded my desktop from Windows XP to Windows Vista Ultimate (clean install) and have migrated my local machine to SQL Server 2005. However I have a number of .Net projects that access databased on another server running SQL Server 2000 - prior to my upgrade to Vista, I was running SQL Server 2000 on my desktop as well. During the install, everything seemed to go well, and I also installed the SQL Server 2005 Service pack as instructed via the MSDN site. However, when attempting to test my .net projects on my desktop pc (ie visit http://localhost), I encounter the error: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) note that the server I am attempting to connect TO is the old SQL 2000 server - NOT 2005. I specify my connection info in the web.config - and it points to an external ip address on the web. Can anyone shed some light on this? I've tried enabling remote access on my local SQL 2005 install, but I'm fairly sure thats for servers that want to connect to my desktop, rather than my desktop attempting to connect to external servers. Any help is greatly appreciated - I'm pulling my hair out over trying to figure this out! :) To summarize my setup (if it helps) Desktop PC:Windows Vista (Ultimate)SQL Server 2005Visual Studio 2005II 7.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application) External Server (co-located at a datacenter)Windows Server 2003SQL Server 2000IIS 6.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application)
Any way to run a package without having VS Data Tools or BIDS installed in the local machine? Scenario: I build a package and I put the package in a folder. I would like that one of my colleague run the package all by himself but I don't want install BIDS or DTT in his machine. Is there any plug in, trick or something else I can do?

So what do i need to do in order to get teh Quick Start samples to work locally???Can i not just use my own instance and use the Grocer and other Databases there???Please Help
Am I correct in assuming that installing a SQL EE application on to a local runtime desktop would require a lot of experienced user intervention to install the SQL to each local cpu? Can a SQL app be installed automatically w/o a user intervening?
Guys, In my report builder when I drag the SKU in the filter area, its doesnt give me the dropdown and show me the distinct values, it just gives me a text box and expects me to type in the SKU. I have other attributes whcih have the same property as SKU but they all work fine when I drag them into Filter area.
Is there a limitation in reporting svcs where if the Field has more than "n" number of distinct records it will not populate the dropdown, instead just present you with a text box?
My DataModel Table has around 110K records and roughly 7K distinct SKU's
I compared the SKU field to other fields in the Report Model Designer and also DataSource View and nothing seems to be out of normal to not show the dropdown with distinct values except for the # of distinct records.
See above. At first I thought it was a problem with SQL server, since I have just installed a new certificate. Now I am not so sure. Any suggestions???? Thanks, kreid
I have SQL Server Express 2005. I have it configured for remote connections, but I cannot even see my local dbase. I have the server setup for windows authentication. In VB 2005 database connection wizard I see the db server but on the database itself.
When I click test connection....without a dbase choosen it says ( i don't have any to choose from).
"An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server. When connection to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server"
This doesn't make sense because i have changed the the surface area configuration to allow remote connections on both TCP/IP and Named pipes. It shouldn't matter though because this is a local database.
I am getting the "Error Locating Server/Instance Specified" message. The part I find most confusing is that I am connecting to my database locally. I have read the recommendations on the blog posted here:
and implemented them to no avail. The confusing part is that I only have this problem on one particular application, which I am not the original author of. When I build my connection to the very same server (different database) using the Data Source configuration wizard, it works just fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am working to develop an application using dotnet framework 2.0 that requires loading tab delimited text file (generated on each user action) in to table of SQL Express database. I am thinking to use SSIS library (Managed DTS) to call my SSIS package from within my application to load this data on each user transaction. This should be noted that I am not hosting my packages in to SQL Express.
Microsoft allows redistribution of SQL Express for free. Do I need any SQL Server or any other type of license for using SSIS library from my application?
Does anyone know how to control the width of the parameter dropdownlist? If you select "Multi-value" for the parameter (non-sp1 version) the parameter list is in a dropdownlist that is manageable in size. If you do not use the multi-value parameter, it looks like the width of the dropdownlist is determined by the width of the longest text of the returned parameters.
Is there any way to control the width of the dropdown?
I have a report with a multi-value parameter. In its' drop drop box, I can select ALL or I can individually select single items, but it doesn't appear that I can select a range of items using the shift key. The problem is; occasionally the user will want to select everything, and them eliminate an item or two. The list it too long to select every one individually. It would be an easy solution if hey could select the entire list, then deselect what they don't want. Is there a way?
Hi SQL folks, I've googled for this the whole yesterday and I couldn't find a complete solution. I'm having a sql2005 database in my development machine and I need to copy all the content "Tables, Diagrams, PK columns and other data" to the remote production machine. Using the Import/Export method didn't copied the relationships between tables, also it turned the PKs into just a standard columns Can anyone help?
I have had a new PC and have installed SQL Server. However, I do not seem to have anywhere to create databases on my PC. I did on my old one. How can i do this ?
Sql server type: database engine server name: authentication: sql server authentication login: sa password: xxxxx
I remember the server name being sqlexpress (I think that was the default name during the install).
OR are they asking for my computer name? because I tried that also and it gave me an error saying "the default installation doesn't allow remote connections"
