Transact SQL :: Printing Report - Capture Actual Pages In A Duplex Printing Job
Aug 10, 2015So I have been asked by our sustainability person to create report from our printing data that actually shows the number of pieces of paper used. This is easy enough for single-sided printing, but when printing in duplex the software does not take into account that 3 printing pages actually equates to 2 pieces of paper. I know this sounds simple, but say I have a print job record that looks like this:
Submitted printed total_pages duplex
8/10/2015 8/10/2015 42 1
This is a print jobs that if done correctly is actually 21 pages( duplex printing). If the job is say total_pages =5 I cant just divide by 2 because its actually using 3 pieces of paper ( yes they are wanting this data don't ask why). How can I adjust some sql to accurately depict 5 pages, front and back, as 3 pieces of paper?
Landscape Printing From Report Manager Not Printing All Displayed Columns On Each Page
May 3, 2007I have deployed a report that is configured for landscape printing. It does print in landscape, however, only the first seven columns appear on the first page and the other five columns appear on the next page. Is there a method, like in print preview setup in MS Excel, where we can scale down the print (like to 80%) so all columns appear on each page?
Thanks!
Suppressing Printing If No Data...............
Mar 24, 2008 Hi, Please tell me that with SQL Reporting there is some way to suppress printing if no data returned? So if did not want reports to print when an order is cancelled you would just make stored proc return nothing in that scenario and nothing would print?
So if the data set doesnt return ny value , then RDL should not print blank page.
Does anybody faced this, any help willbe highly appreciated.
Thanks

Joining Tables - But Data Not Always In All Tables
Aug 18, 2007I have created 3 views, which I then want to join to produce an overall result. The first view returns customer details, along with payment information. The next two views return values only when the customer has purchased extras outside our standard product i.e. if there is no purchase of an extra, then nothing is written to the extra's table. When I join the views together they only return values where data has been matched in all 3 views i.e. extra's have been purchased. Any data that did not match in all 3 view (i.e. no extra's purchased) is either ignored or dropped from the results. So I need my script to return all values even if no data exists in the two extra views.
My scripts are as follows:

Reporting Services :: Keep Multiple Data Tables Having Fixed Size Data In Same Page On Runtime?
Jul 31, 2015I have a report where in I have a combination of matrix ,table data regions.
The problem what I am facing is that the data tables don't remain fixed in their position and they tend to move down.
E.g. table 1 and table 2 are on the same page in design time side by side (right and left)however during the runtime the table1 is pushed down and table2 is at its position .
Now how can I keep them all fixed in their same position. Most of the tables have fixed size rows and some who have high size of rows have been put at the end . What settings we can set?
Archiving Data From Some Tables - Timestamp Data Type?
Aug 21, 2015I'm working on archiving data from some tables. I've duplicated the data structure, with the exception of not including the IDENTITY specifier on INT columns, so that the archive table will keep the value that was generated in the original table. This is all going well, until I tried to copy the data over where the column is specified as a timestamp data type. I've looked this up and found a couple of things. First, documentation for SQL 2000 says,
Timestamp is a data type that exposes automatically generated binary numbers, which are guaranteed to be unique within a database. Timestamp is used typically as a mechanism for version-stamping table rows. The storage size is 8 bytes.
And then documentation for the soon to be released SQL 2016 on the rowversion data type says,
The timestamp syntax is deprecated. This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
and
Is a data type that exposes automatically generated, unique binary numbers within a database. rowversion is generally used as a mechanism for version-stamping table rows. The storage size is 8 bytes. The rowversion data type is just an incrementing number and does not preserve a date or a time.
OK, I've read the descriptions, but I don't get it. Why have a timestamp/rowversion data type?
Master Data Services :: Clearing MDS Tables Of Data?
Jul 29, 2011Everytime I run the load packages that I have built into the MDS staging the tables, in MDS_Staging, get cleared down and then repopulated. When the MDS database gets new data it appends it and does not clear down the data that is already in the database and is there fore hold duplicate rows.
Is there a way of truncating the tables in the MDS database before populating again with the new data from the MDS_Staging database so as to not hold duplicate rows?
Printing
Jun 5, 2007I looked through a couple of database books I have and I really didn't find anything about printing.
My question is can you print the data directly from a database in C# or do you have to write it all to a textfile then print the textfile?
Be easier just to do it from the database and eliminate the text coding, just not sure you can do that.

Printing To Txt Files
Nov 5, 2005Hey all,
I'm new to SQL and am having some troubles w/ a problem I was given.
I have two tables (OrderTableA & OrderTableB) which are linked by an OrderID. What I need to do is have the two tables printed out to two txt files. Below is the code I have so far.
CREATE TABLE OrderTableA(
OrderIDNUMBER,
OrderDateCHAR(24),
CustomerIDCHAR(8),
TotalDEC);
CREATE TABLE OrderTableB(
OrderIDNUMBER,
QuantityNUMBER,
DiscountNUMBER,
UnitPriceDEC);
SELECT OrderID, "#" + OrderDate AS OrderDate, "&" + CustomerID AS CustomerID, Total
FROM OrderTableA;
SELECT OrderID, Quantity, Discount, UnitPrice
FROM OrderTableB;
The txt file for OrderTableA has to look like this:
!!OrderID OrderDate CustomerID Total
---------- ----------- ----------- ------
123456 #123456 &123456 123456
with the !! before OrderID in the header, the # before OrderID in the table and the & before the CustomerID in the table.
I'm not sure my code above is correct so far, and I've no idea how to print this to two txt files.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

View 4 Replies View RelatedCan I Force Printing?
Sep 1, 2005I have a script or SP that takes a very long time to performmultiple tasks, and after each one there is a PRINT statementthat shows the time and what was just accomplished, to help memonitor what's happening and estimate how long it will take.In a script, I can put a GO after each PRINT to cause the outputto appear immediately, but that's not possible inside an SP.Instead, it seems the output goes to a buffer, and the bufferis only output when a PRINT causes the buffer to become full.Sometimes there is a long delay before the buffer fills. Isthere a way other than GO to cause immediate printing? (Iguess I could just use longer messages, and fill up thebuffer with every one, but that's not very elegant.)Thanks,Jim GCountrywide Home Loans

Printing Problem
Nov 12, 2007Hi All,
We have created reports with page size width : 11in and height : 8.5in so that we get pages printed in the landscape mode. We use HP LaserJet 3500 and reports were printing correctly in landscape format.
Everything was working fine till we introduced a new printer Dell 1110 laser printer to the environment.
When we have our Dell 1110 laser printers set as default, the page setup IS NOT set to landscape and when I manually change it to landscape, it prints in a compressed portrait image rather than landscape.
However when the HP LaserJet 3500 is set as the default, it prints correctly in landscape.
As the client is using Dell 1110 laser printers i need to fix this issue immediately.
Can someone guide me in resolving this issue..
Thanks!

Footer Not Printing
Oct 1, 2007
Hi everyone,
For some odd reason the footer of my report never gets printed. The footer contains the page number and report name and is very important to my report. I made sure the margins are 1 inches for all sides, made sure Footers printing in first and last pages are checked in the properties section, and gave it a large amount of space around the textbox. Is there anything I am doing wrong? Also, the header and body prints correctly.
Thanks

Printing Error
Nov 12, 2007
Hi all,
I have a web interface and using that web Interface I am viewing the report in Report Viewer.
I have tried to print that report using the Print button on the Report Viewer. If its a large report, say around 100 pages, then the report takes a lot of time to print. It keeps on showing the "Printing Now..." dialogue box on the web interface for a long time. When I checked the printer status, it keeps on showing "spooling". Because of this, the printer takes around 12-13 minutes to spool and then print.
My system configuration is 2.0 GHz processor and 1 GB Ram. Also, the report is fairly simple.
Please tell me why this could be happening. What could be wrong.
Thanks a lot in advance for all the help.

Problems Printing
Apr 11, 2008
I have a problem when i print reports.
I have a parameter that change font type.
I select Agfa Rotis Sans Serif and the report change the text with that font. I can see that in my navigator.
If i print the report with ie (File/print) the report is print ok.
If i print the report using the reporting services print button the report is not print with that font.
The font is install in the server and in the client.
That ocurrs only in some machines and i don't know why.
At first, that font was not installed in the server and occurs the same. In some machines the print were ok and in some machines don't.
I don't understand anything. If the problem is in the server configuration i don't understand why there are machines that print correctly the font and if the problem is in the client neither cause all machines have that font installed and in some machines is print ok and in other not.
Any ideas?
Printing A Database Diagram
