Preview Report Tab Is Prompting For An Input Parameter That Does Not Exist For The Dataset
Apr 11, 2008
I created a dataset based on a stored procedure. There are nine input parameters. When I click on the preview tab, it is asking me for ten input parameters.
I double checked my dataset on the data tab, and it only shows the expected nine parameters when I look at the parameters tab. I can also run the query without issue from the data tab.
I have no idea why it is asking for an extra parameter on the preview tab. It is a column name that does exist in my database, but is in no way used in the stored procedure in question.
Is there a way of previewing a report without executing the dataset? Problem is when I make changes to the layout of the report it is taking a while before the report renders.
While I am developing my reports and working on the layout, changing colours, fonts etc it would be good to have an option which uses local data only.
I have a sp with lot of params. I checked my sp. It works fine for every param.
My dataset is using the sp. It seems to pick the field list and params, but it will not return any result. I passed the same param to the ds as I did to sp. But, the report preview seems to alternate between displaying all data irrespective of the rpt criteria or nothing.
I do not have permission to run trace on the server
There is a multi value parameter called  "include" in the report where "Allow Multiple Values" is checked and it has 4 Available values as shown in the attached screen shots and preview of the report is also shown .There is no data set for this parameter and the values  will get displayed on the report based on the visibility condition set in the report.Example : If first value  is selected  then 1 is passed and based on the visibility condition set in the report - the report output is displayed.None is default value and has value 4  and when the report is run with this option i.e. "None" then rest three parameter values are not applicable .
Requirement : -When the end user selects (Select All) Check box then (None) -check box must be disabled or must not appear for selection for the end user -When the end user selects check boxes either of the first three except None then also None check box must be disabled or must not appear for -selection for the end user -when the end user selects a combination of first three then also None check box must be disabled or must not appear for selection for the end user -The None is set as default with a value as 4 and is applicable only when the user does not select either of the first three values and the report will run.
I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.Â
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?Â
I am designing a report which need to take parameter input by user when the report is open. Can anyone please tell me how to do this? Using MS SQL 2005 report. Thanks.
Is it possible to alter the format/layout of the parameter input boxes that the user enters values into. reporting services automatically arranges them. Is it possible for the report writer to set the layout?
I know that when using report viewer in asp.net that the properties of the viewer are confiigurable.
I'm using Cube.My DimDate tables Datekey is integer .But client wants a calendar to set date as you see in picture .how can I change calendar value  which will be input by user.
I have used my parameter value in where clause of my dataset control SQL query. When I choose a single value in my multiple-value parameter then I get output as expected. Hovewer when I choose multuple values I get an arror:
Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS. ---------------------------- Query execution failed for dataset 'DATABASE'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) ---------------------------- An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
I am convinced that it's a syntax problem. Is there a way I can change syntax of data output from query:
select @parameter
I need output to be like: value, value, value ... etc.
The dataset control query looks something like the following:
select ID, a, b, c, d from DATASET.dbo.Table where ID in (select @parameter)
I have been searching through google for weeks to solve this and got this far and got stuck. Is it possible at all to achieve what I am looking for?
After publishing report on server and accessing it from URL its prompting for the USER ID and pAssword of Admin user of the server. Have tried to find the Virtual Directory of the Reporting server on IIS - which is not available. or unable to find the same. Apart from this have saved the Database credential in the report itself.Â
I have developed a custom report item that works fine in design and preview mode while in Visual Studio. I cannot get it to show up on my deployed reports. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Deployed the report using Visual Studio
2. updated the rsreportserver.config file with the following entry:
I've also tried using the StrongNameMembershipCondition with no better results.
4. The dll and its dependencies are copied to the bin directory of the report server.
5. When I load a report with this custom report item on it, the report loads fine with no errors or warnings in the log file (even with verbose tracing). The area where the custom item should be is just white. It's almost like Reporting Services isn't registering the item correctly.
This is particularly frustrating because the report works fine in Visual Studio - apparently I configured that correctly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm stumped.
I've got a report with several cascading parameters. When I preview the report, everything works fine. However, when I deploy the report, the very first (and thus the rest) of the cascading parameters is greyed out. Any idea what's going on?
I am passing one unrelated parameter into this report, and I also have three non-cascading parameters before this one, but none of them are used in the queries for the cascading parameters. They also appear correctly at the top of the report.
This is rather frustrating since the preview works fine -- making it pretty difficult to debug the issue!
I have a DTS program in sql-server 2000 which worked to week 27 but not from week 28. During that time I was on vacation och no one else was working with the server.
The part which is the problem looks like this.
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[lenko7].[aviskydd]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table [lenko7].[aviskydd] GO
CREATE TABLE [lenko7].[aviskydd] ( [Col002] [varchar] (255) NOT NULL, [linecount] [int] NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] GO
I have not changed owner.
I don't understand why this DTS package suddenly cant work because it has been working for a several years with no problems. The only thing a know is that we have updated windows 2000 cause of a critical updates Juli 13.
I'm bothered by an issue of updating a column in input dataset from a update query. It looks like SSIS has a very poor function on this.
Example, I have an input dataset of name, salary, dept_no, and I have another table called departments which has fields of dept_no, Dept_name, basic_salary
now I want to update salary column in input dataset with basic_salary if it's salary is smaller than the basic_salary.
update #tmp set salary = basic_salary where #tmp.salary <departments.basic_salary and #tmp.dept_no = departments.dept_no
how could I impletement this in SSIS package?
I tried with lookup, modify scripts by enabling memory restriction. It doesn't say any error when I save the package, but I never get pass debug.
I have the above output. When I try to input this as a dataset to a pie chart I don't get the data lables for two slices of the pie chart. Only one slice will show the values when showing data label option is enabled.
For the Pie chart, I have added Soft, Hard and Primary as Values. I haven't added a Category group or a Series group. Why isn't this showing the data labels for the other slices?
Do I need to transform the dataset so that it has a category and the value like below?
XYZ,  2, Soft 50 XYZ ,  2, Hard, 10 XYZ,  2, Primary, 40
Will this work since it has a define category that I could insert for the chart.
I have a stored procedure which takes an input parm and is supposed to return an output parameter named NewRetVal. I have tested the proc from Query Analyzer and it works fine, however when I run the ASP code and do a quickwatch I see that the parm is being switched to an input parm instead of the output parm I have it defined as...any ideas why this is happening?

Does anyone know, or direct me to an example of, how to print a SERVER report directly to a printer from a windows application? There are plenty of examples on the internet that shows how to do this with a local report but a SERVER report seems to be a whole other animal.
I'm working on an invoice report, that requires borders around the whole report. I've got header, footer and body in the report. In the body section, i've got a table which shows line items for an invoice. So the table grows as per the no. of lines in the invoice. As said before I've got to have border around the report. I tried put info in ractangles with borders for header/footer and table with borders in body section. The borders appears fine for headers and footer ractangles but as the table grows/shrinks, border from body section is not continuous to the footer section. i.e. For an invoice with 2 line items the borders for table will appear for two lines only but i want it to be scratched up to the footer area regardless of no. of line items in the invoice.
I've also tried to use borders for header, footer and body sections itself rather than using ractangles. But then when i export the report to pdf and print from pdf, it looks fine but when i tried to print from report manger its missing right hand side border for page header, footer and body. I've made sure there is enough margin around report. Report body/header/footer are 19 cm wide that's mean the report still have 2 cm of space for margins. The left/right margin are 0.5 cm.
I've been trying to do various things for last 2 weeks but not getting anywhere. Can i anyone please help into this?

I have to try Report Designer Preview and i have to make a demo for a client.
I have 2 problems.
* We need Report Designer Preview to be the end-user Report Maker Tool. But, it doesn't have the Query Designer and the MDX Query Designer. In future version of MSSQL2008, is it integrated ?
* We work with MOSS 2007 and i just want to know if it's possible to deploy directy from Report Designer Preview to a Sharepoint with Reporting Services in Integrated Mode. If it's not, is it preview to have it ? and when ?
Thanks for your help. (if you know people from Microsoft who can help me for features in future version, thanks to forward me his email).
I have a .rdl file which I opened in visual studio 2005. I answered Yes to the prompt Microsoft Report Designer. . . Do you want to convert this file? [Yes] Then I saved the file.
The issue is when I am in Visual Studio and click on the Preview tab, I get the following error:
[rsErrorLoadingCodeModule] Error while loading code module: €˜x.ReportDefinitionsHelper, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null€™. Details: Could not load file or assembly 'AdvancedMD.Report.ReportDefinitionsHelper, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
There was a <CodeModule> which existed prior to the conversion and the preview worked fine.
I tried to re-add the reference by clicking on the Layout tab then go to the report properties tab. Then, under references I clicked on the collection and browsed to the file which I wanted to reference and clicked ok, but I still get the error above when I click on the Preview tab. I tried to remove the reference save then come back in and add it again, but it still gives the error above.
The file I am trying to add to <CodeModule> (x.ReportDefinitionsHelper) references the following:
System
System.Data
System.Xml
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
(I can load the .rdl to reporting services 2005 and go into Reporting Services Manager and view the report without any issues.)
My report worked fine for a while, but suddenly I started getting the following errors for Preview:
An error occurred during local report processing.
An error has occurred during report processing.
Index was outside the bounds of the array.
I restarted VS, then rebooted my machine and the problem persists. Everything including the report posted to the server works fine. It is just the Preview of this report does not work any more. Preview of other reports work fine.
Any tip to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I wrote a report today containing one grouping. Everything appears all right in the report preview, except that every other page is "blank", i.e., shows only the page header and page footer; all grouping and detail information is missing.Â
The data on the page following the blank page seems to pick up where the previous non-blank page left off, so all information seems to be present within the report.The report width and height properties are typical portrait-style  -- 8.5 x 11 inches. The columns do not "run off the edge" of the report page boundary. I haven't selected any page break for the grouping, as the grouping detail is typically only a few rows long, and would otherwise result in a very large number of pages.Â
I've created an SSRS report in Visual Studio 2005 which runs fine in the preview. I have a list of server names which when clicked on expands to a list of databases on the chosen server. When I click on a database it then queries a table of information and displays information on that database. The query is something like:
SELECT * FROM MyDB.dbo.DB_info WHERE ServerName = @ServerName and DBname = @DBname
This works fine in preview mode. When I run it in SQL Management Studio via the Custom Reports menu it only works when the chosen server is the one that contains MyDB. I've run a trace and can see the query being issued when I use preview mode. However, when I run it from SSMS I don't see any query being issued to the database. This seems strange as it does return data in the instance described above and if I put MyDB into single-user mode it then complains that it can't access it so it is obviously trying to communicate with the database but not showing up on the trace. I've selected all events and only put a filter on the database name.
Seeing as all of the information is in the same table it seems odd that they query only works when the server name is the one where the database is held and that the query is not shown up in a trace. I'm running the report under the same credentials too.
I'm completely baffled by this so I'd be very grateful if someone could explain what might be happening here.
Hi, I've build correctly my report using the most efficient tools. I've made the preview and it worked just fine!However, when I export to PDF, it splits the report heigth into two pages, having the columns of my table and other controls splitted.
I'm already using the font size as 7 or 8 (depends), really small, I've tried hard to reduce their size, however the result remains the same...no resolution!!
Is there anybody who may have or had this situation?Any guests or help?Thanks a lot!
I'm trying to create a report using a SAP BI InfoCube as my datasource. One of the fields in the InfoCube (GL Account) consist of a 3 level hierarchy, which need to be reported on. The query that I built using QueryBuilder executes fine and displays the hierarchies correctly, but when I preview the report, i get the following error:
An error occurred during local report processing An error has occurred during report processing Query execution failed for data set "SAPBWD" The "0GL_ACCOUNT 1000IE" Object was not found.
0GL_ACCOUNT is the GL account field to report on 1000IE is the selected GL Account Hierarchy to be displayed
Here's the query that was generated using query builder:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[D2A3Y7ANS9YOF2FONXMUS9RAI] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY {[0GL_ACCOUNT 1000IE].[LEVEL03].ALLMEMBERS * [ZF_MC].[LEVEL01].ALLMEMBERS } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM [ZFGL_M03/ZREP_BOR001] CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING SAP VARIABLES [ZFV_FY] INCLUDING [0FISCYEAR].[Z12007] [ZFV_PC] INCLUDING [0PROFIT_CTR 1000FS].[10000001000033] [ZFV_RM] INCLUDING [0FISCPER3].[005] [ZFV_PV] INCLUDING [0VERSION].[003]
I'm using the SSRS report designer within VS2005 and I have a .rdl report that I have placed a background form as an image background. I then have text placed on top of the form, the problem is that everything is aligned within the report designer layout view but when I go to view the report in report preview the text no longer remains vertically aligned within the background form.
This is very frustrating, and almost makes it impossible to marry up a form with report data. Any help would be appreciated.
