Programmatically Creating Reports In VB.NET
Feb 15, 2007
Hi!
I am trying to write a script in VB.NET that will run a report that already exists in the system and export the results to my local machine. We are using MS Reporting Services to manage and manipulate the reports. So here's my question:
Is it possible to programmatically create a report in VB.NET based on an existing report? I noticed that crystal reports has a nice export method, but I have not been able to find anything similar for my situation. Basically I believe I would need some sort of reporting services object in .NET that would allow me to run the report and export the results. Does anyone know of such a structure, or if this is even possible? Thanks!!
Best regards,
Josh

I've seen several post asking for that possibility, but all 've read, didn't help me.Some sing SQLDMO, other suggest to use SQLSMO, others only explaining to connect to a server and then do "CREATE DATABASE".I will do this within .Net. Connecting to a SQL Server 2005 and execute "CREATE DATABASE" I could realize.But how doing this with SQLExpress? Trying to do SqlConnection.Open with a non existing DB does not work., says "file not exists".Or do I only have the wrong connection string? Can someone post here an excample connection string, which works with a non existing database?Some hints I've read make me considering to use SQLSMO. But I don't have it on my computer. Where do I get it from? Any links would be nice.

Hello. Im trying to create an SQLDataSource control programmatically. I need to do this because I want to do some stuff on my MasterPage's 'Page_Init' event.
heres my code (Master.master.vb): Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
lblUser.Text = Page.User.Identity.Name
Dim PUser As New ControlParameter
PUser.ControlID = "lblUser"
PUser.Name = "LoginName"
PUser.PropertyName = "Text"
PUser.Type = TypeCode.String
PUser.DefaultValue = Page.User.Identity.Name
Dim SQLDS_Login As New SqlDataSource
SQLDS_Login.ID = "SQLDS_Login"
SQLDS_Login.ConnectionString = "I put conection string here. How do I use the one on my web.config?"
SQLDS_Login.SelectCommand = "SELECT [LoginID], [LoginName], [Role], [Status] FROM [myLogin] WHERE ([LoginName] = @LoginName)"
SQLDS_Login.SelectParameters.Add(PUser)
SQLDS_Login.SelectCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text
GridView1.DataSource = SQLDS_Login
GridView1.DataBind()
End Sub
When i run, i get this error message:
The SqlDataSource control 'SQLDS_Login' does not have a naming container. Ensure that the control is added to the page before calling DataBind.
I never had any problem with Inserts, Updates and Deleting, but I have never made it work for Select when doing it programmatically.
Can you help me with this?

Hi there,
I got a user who is requesting a weekly report to be exported in csv (comma delimited) format. But this process will run weekly using schedule job and he wants the file to save to a certain directory on the network. Two part questions...
1. Is there a way to create a .csv file programmatically after runing the query?
2. How would I save the .csv file to a specified directory on the network?
TIA

Hi guys,
I was intended to write a program that will create a SSIS package which will import data from a CSV file to the SQL server 2005. But I did not find any good example for this into the internet. I found some example which exports data from SQL server 2005 to CSV files. And following those examples I have tried to write my own. But I am facing some problem with that. What I am doing here is creating two connection manager objects, one for Flat file and another for OLEDB. And create a data flow task that has two data flow component, one for reading source and another for writing to destination. While debugging I can see that after invoking the ReinitializedMetaData() for the flat file source data flow component, there is not output column found. Why it is not fetching the output columns from the CSV file? And after that when it invokes the ReinitializedMetaData() for the destination data flow component it simply throws exception.
Can any body help me to get around this problem? Even can anyone give me any link where I can find some useful article to accomplish this goal?
I am giving my code here too.
I will appreciate any kind of suggestion on this.
Code snippet:
public void CreatePackage()
{
string executeSqlTask = typeof(ExecuteSQLTask).AssemblyQualifiedName;
Package pkg = new Package();
pkg.PackageType = DTSPackageType.DTSDesigner90;
ConnectionManager oledbConnectionManager = CreateOLEDBConnection(pkg);
ConnectionManager flatfileConnectionManager =
CreateFileConnection(pkg);
// creating the SQL Task for table creation
Executable sqlTaskExecutable = pkg.Executables.Add(executeSqlTask);
ExecuteSQLTask execSqlTask = (sqlTaskExecutable as Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.TaskHost).InnerObject as ExecuteSQLTask;
execSqlTask.Connection = oledbConnectionManager.Name;
execSqlTask.SqlStatementSource =
"CREATE TABLE [MYDATABASE].[dbo].[MYTABLE] ([NAME] NVARCHAR(50),[AGE] NVARCHAR(50),[GENDER] NVARCHAR(50)) GO";
// creating the Data flow task
Executable dataFlowExecutable = pkg.Executables.Add("DTS.Pipeline.1");
TaskHost pipeLineTaskHost = (TaskHost)dataFlowExecutable;
MainPipe dataFlowTask = (MainPipe)pipeLineTaskHost.InnerObject;
// Put a precedence constraint between the tasks.
PrecedenceConstraint pcTasks = pkg.PrecedenceConstraints.Add(sqlTaskExecutable, dataFlowExecutable);
pcTasks.Value = DTSExecResult.Success;
pcTasks.EvalOp = DTSPrecedenceEvalOp.Constraint;
// Now adding the data flow components
IDTSComponentMetaData90 sourceDataFlowComponent = dataFlowTask.ComponentMetaDataCollection.New();
sourceDataFlowComponent.Name = "Source Data from Flat file";

}
And my CSV files is as follows
NAME, AGE, GENDER
Jon,52,MALE
Linda, 26, FEMALE
Thats all. Thanks.

I am creating a page that creates a report based on a dynamically created SQL statement which is created by user input.
Everything is good except for the WHERE section, which is created from values in a list box.
For Example:
lstCriteria.items(1).value = "COMPANY = 'foo'"
lstCriteria.items(2).value = "DAY= 2"
I build my SQL statement with these values like so:
SELECT * FROM POO WHERE COMPANY = 'foo' AND DAY = 2
The problem I am having is when there are multiple values of the same type in the list box. Say:
lstCriteria.items(1).value = "COMPANY = 'foo'"
lstCriteria.items(2).value = "DAY= 2"
lstCriteria.items(1).value = "COMPANY = 'moo'"
My employer wants this to be valid, but I am having a tough time coming up with a solution.
I know that my SQL statement needs to now read:
SELECT * FROM POO WHERE COMPANY = 'foo' AND DAY = 2 OR COMPANY = 'poo' AND DAY = 2
I have code set up to read the values of each list box item up to the "=". And I know that I need to compair this value with the others in the list box...but I am not running into any good solutions.
Any HELP?

Does anyone have any examples of programmatically creating a Transformation Script Component (or Source/Destination) in the dataflow? I have been able to create other Transforms for the dataflow like Derived Column, Sort, etc. but for some reason the Script Component doesn't seem to work the same way.
I have done it as below trying many ways to get the componentClassId including the AssemblyQualifiedname & the GUID as well. No matter, what I do, when it hits the ProvideComponentProperties, it get Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0048021
IDTSComponentMetaData90 scriptPropType = dataFlow.ComponentMetaDataCollection.New();
scriptPropType.Name = "Transform Property Type";
scriptPropType.ComponentClassID = "DTSTransform.ScriptComponent";
// have also tried scriptPropType.ComponentClassID =typeof(Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponent).AssemblyQualifiedName;
scriptPropType.Description = "Transform Property Type";
CManagedComponentWrapper instance2 = scriptPropType.Instantiate();
instance2.ProvideComponentProperties();
Any help or examples would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Does anyone know how to create a Source Script Component programmatically. I can only seem to create a Transformation Script Component. I have this:
PipeLineWrapper.IDTSComponentMetaData90 sourceComponent =
((dataflowTask as TaskHost).InnerObject as PipeLineWrapper.MainPipe).ComponentMetaDataCollection.New();
sourceComponent.ComponentClassID = app.PipelineComponentInfos["Script Component"].CreationName;
Is there anything I have to do extra to make it a source script component, seeing how it defaults to a transformation.

Below is C# code used to create a FuzzyLookup SSIS package programmatically. It does 95% of what I need it to. The only thing missing that I cannot figure out is how to take a Fuzzy Lookup Input column (OLE DB Output Column) and make it "pass through" the fuzzy lookup component to the OLE DB Destination. In the example below, that means I need the QuarantinedEmployeeId to make it into the destination.
Look in the "Test Dependencies" region below to get instructions and scripts used to set assembly references, create the sample tables used for this example, and insert test data.
Can anyone help me get past this last hurdle? You will see at the end of my Fuzzy Lookup region a bunch of commented out code that I've used to try to accomplish this last problem.

Hi All,
I have been stuck with this problem since few days, need help regarding the same. I am enclosing the problem description and possible solutions that I have found.
Can anyone please help me out here?
Thanks and regards,
Virat
Problem Description:
I have a requirement for which I have created a data driven subscription in
SQL Server 2005, the whole thing works like this:
I have a report on Report Server which executes a stored procedure to get
its parameters; then it calls another stored procedure to get data for the
report; then it creates the report and copies it to a file share. This is
done using data driven subscription and the time set for repeating this
process is 5 minutes.
You can assume that following are working fine:
1. I have deployed the report on the Report Manager (Uploaded the report,
created a data source, linked the report to data source) - manually, the
report works fine.
2. Created a data driven subscription.
3. The data driven subscription calls a stored procedure, say
GetReportParameters which returns all the parameters required for the report
to execute.
4. The Report Manager executes the report by calling a stored procedure, say
GetReportData with the parameters provided by GetReportParameters stored
procedure; after it has generated the report file (PDF) is copied to a file
share.
For each row that GetReportParameters stored procedure returns a report (PDF
file) will be created and copied to file share.
Now, my question is
1. How to I get a notification that this file was successfully created
or an error occurred?
2. The only message that reporting service shows on 'Report Manager >
My Subscriptions' is something like "Done: 5 processed of 10 total; 2
errors."
How do I find out which record was processed successfully and which ones
resulted in an error?
Based on above results (success or failure), I have to perform further
operations.
Solutions or Work around that I have found:
1. Create a windows service which will monitor the file share folder
and look for the file name (each record has a unique file name) for the
reports that were picked up for PDF creation. If the file is not found, this
service will report an error. Now, there's a glitch there; if a report takes
very long time to execute it will also be reported as error (i.e. when this
service checks for the PDF file, the report was currently being generated).
So, I can't go with this solution.
2. I have also looked at following tables on ReportServer database:
a. Catalog - information regarding all the reports, folders, data
source information, etc.
b. Subscriptions - all the subscriptions information.
c. ExecutionLog - information regarding execution of the subscriptions
and the also manual execution of reports.
d. Notifications - information regarding the errors that occurred
during subscription execution.
For this solution, I was thinking of doing a windows service which will
monitor these tables and do further operations as required.
This looks like most feasible solution so far.
3. Third option is to look at DeliveryExtensions but in that case I
will have to manually call SSRS APIs and will have to manage report
invocation and subscription information. What is your opinion on this?
My environment details:
Windows XP SP2
SQL Server 2005
Reporting Services 2005
Please let me know if I am missing something somewhere...

I need to create RDF files dynamically. As one example, I need to output a report that contains an OLAP table from an MDX query and will need to generate the RDL that represents the table on the fly. (Binding to a data source with any built-in control will not even come close to solving the problem. The actual requirements are extremely complex.)
In short... Rather than outputting the RDL XML the hard way is there an object model I can use to construct an RDL document with? Even if it's a bindhind-the-scenese, not-supported library?
Thanks,
Terry

Hi all,
I am having a HUGE issue with SSRS, I am running SQL 2005 on Win 2003 server, the SQL uses SQL and windows permissions.
I have a datasource which stores it credentials securely on the server but for some reason when i try to subscribe to the report it errors saying
"Subscriptions cannot be created because the credentials used to run the report are not stored, or if a linked server the link is no longer valid."
Beats me but the credentials are stored, I am connecting using a user account which can run the report fine (This is proven).
I have SP1 installed, and have literally tried every last option in the book.
N.B i have read all the existing post about this and i seem to have a different issue, I am not using any paraeters in the report i am trying to test and i dont use anything like USR!USERID
Please help!
Andy

I am having a problem with the disk usage reports after creating a centralised MDW on SQL Server 2008, this is the report displayed when you drill down onto a specific database.
When I drill down on a database on the local server to the MDW database the disk usage report is shown correctly.
However, when I drill down onto another servers database I receive the following error: A data source instance has not been supplied for the data source 'DS_TraceEvents'.

Hi,We have XML files (and its XSD) that are dump of our tree-like datastructure in memory. These XML files may potentially have unlimitedlevels of nesting because some elements can contain themselves(recursively defined).We want to build some reports using some third party reporting tool(Crystal Report, for example).The first question is - is there any way for Crystal Reports toprocess such complicated (some elements have recursive definitions)XML file directly? If not, anyone knows any other reporting tool thatcan do that job?The second question is - if we have to develop a small applicationthat converts the XML to dataset, anyone who has done similar thingbefore can give us some recommendations as to which approach is theeasiest to take (Java, .NET, etc.)? I'd appreciate it if someone canpoint me to some resources to get me started.Another approach is to convert the hierarchical XML into relationaltable set and store the data into relational database. In that case,the reporting tool can simply read from the database. I'd appreciateit if someone can let me know if there is any softeware/program thatcan do the conversion. (I heard that some database server can do theconversion from XML to relational tables, but didn't find anythingconcrete.)Any comment/recommendation is appreciated!Thank you for your help in advance!!

Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,
Patrick Conway

Is there a way to copy reports from other users "My reports" folder? I am logging onto the management studio reporting services using an administrative account and I am able to view the reports from all users' "My Reports" folder. But I am not able to export them as an rdl file. I am able to export reports from other common folders, but not from the "My Reports" folder.
The reason I need to do this is some of the users have created some reports in one environment and the reports are available in their respective "My Reports" folder. I need to move these reports to their corresponding "My Reports" folder in another environment.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for your help.

I need to programmatically backup a database in SQL Server Express. I actually also need to programmatically restore it from a backup file. How can I do this programmatically? I know how to do simple ADO commands for simple db operations, but backup and restore sound like "meta" commands to me, and I don't know where to begin from.

I'm building SSIS packages through code and I would like to set the properties of some custom tasks (not data flow tasks) to expressions. I've done some searches but turned up nothing. This is the only thing I'm hitting a brick wall on at the moment; Books Online has been excellent in detailing how to create packages via code up to this point.
For the sake of argument, let's say I want to set the SqlStatementSource property of an Execute SQL task to this value:
"INSERT INTO [SomeTable] VALUES (NEWID(), '" + @[User:omeStringVariable] + "')"
What would the code look like?

Ok. So I have this ASP.NET page and I've programmatically taken a report from the report server and rendered it in PDF. Now I would like to take this a step further and save the report as a pdf document on the local machine.
So at this point I have a byte array representing the document, now how would I save this as a pdf on the local machine? I'm unaware of an ASP Response method to allow this and I'm unaware of a SSRS ReportingService method, but as I said I'm unaware...
Any ideas, thoughts, resources are all welcome.
