I'm new to Reporting Services, but am familiar with other reporting tools. My question is, is there really no way to reference a field in a page header? If so, I suppose you could repeat some header information on subsequent pages from the detail section of the report using a text box, but how is that done because when I check the property box "Repeat report item with data region on every page" nothing happens. What is the best way to repeat header information on every page that needs to contain field values/information?
Hi, this is probably a simple question but I just can't figure it out. I'm using SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 sp1.
I'm trying to design a report that displays a particular embedded image on the first page, and then a different one on every subsequent page. I.e full, fancy company logo on the first page, and a trimmed down version on every other. In Crystal, I would have simply used the Report Header and Page Header sections to achieve this - easy.
However, in SQL Reporting Services, there is only a Page Header section - therefore whatever I place in the Page Header shows on every page. Now, I know how to stop it displaying on the first page, but I don't know how to display the other image instead.
I read in a support forum that it is possible to do this by "placing report items above or below your data regions" but I can't get it to work.
I wanted to show header titles for each group of accounts. Ho would I be able to do that. The query that I have right now is:
select * from apcopah where substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1624' and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01' or substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1631' and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01' or substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1632' and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01'
I have set the option 'Headers should remain Visible while scrolling', in order to freeze the headers. However, on some reports, when I scroll down the report , the headers overlap each other .
I have an image stored in a dataset that I would like to place in the page header and footer. Unfortunately dataset fields can not be placed in headers/footers.
Embedded pics in the project and/or report are NOT an option as the report must pull the image from the database. UNLESS there is a way to embed it FROM the dataset.
Normally I use =ReportItems!FieldName, but this doesn't seem to work when dealing with images.
I put the image in the header row the table holding the report information, but there are some pitfalls. Consider the following: put the Image in the top left cell of the header rows (A1) , put my Report Title in Cell (A2) and finally put =Now() in cell (B2).
When the report renders Cell (A1) has grown to accomodate the size of the image, Cell (A2) is fine, but cell (A3 - the date-) is pushed down...as expected (boooo!)
I used the following function =Fields!ReportTitle.Value & chr(10) & chr(13) & Fields!ReportDate.Value in (A2) a slick solution, but the padding is different and I need different font sizes and weights. (...almost)
I moved the image in (a1) and the rest of the fields following respecfully (B1, C1, D1...) but with parameters the header is now practically half the page (...ok so that was a bit of an stretch)
I tried the RepeatsWith property and couldn't get it to work???? Am I using it correctly? I have a table in the body of a report (table1). Above it, I place the image. In the image properties, I choose RepeatWith and select table1, I expect to see the image repeat on each page, but that is not the case. I'm probably missing a simple explanation.
I even tried to pass the image as a parameter. URRRNT! At least with my experience.
Have I exhausted all possibilities without extensive code?
All I'm trying to do is line up the Image with the report Title/date/parameter values in the HEADER making the report look pretty.
I have designed some reports and kept these reports in the report server.
My question is: I want to change report header and footer values dynamically and save the new values in the report template, when the user enters new velues in ASP.NET GUI.
Next time if the user opens the same file the report should display the recent values.
Please help me in passing the parameters from ASP.NET app to SQL Reports and saving the parameters in the report template.
I have a report which runs for last 12 months data. Since this is going to be last 12 months the column headers change every month. How can we implement this with dynamic column headers in the dataset?
I want to have two lines of column headers.( with 7 columns in parent columns header)
and 7 columns in child column header.
The first column header will show a parent record.
And after the parent record i want to show the next child related horizontal column headers and will show all child record related to the above parent record.
its a one to many: 1 parent record and below all child records for that parent record.
can i use subreports controls to show all child records of the parent.
My problem is specific to the ReportViewer control. The report displays correctly in every other way (ssrs server viewer, visual studio preview, visual studio 'Run', etc)The aspx page hosting the control has two controls, the reportviewer control (assembly 10.0.0.0), and a scriptmanager control asyncrendering = 'true' and processingmode = 'remote'.So the columns are not 'always visible' with the reportviewer but they are with every other renderer that i've tried.
The report i'm testing is just a simple table with a couple groupings (built using the wizard). To enable the fixed headers I went to the groupings view and changed the "FixedData" property of the first Static member to true per instructions.
I have a table which has few columns as Numeric value. I need to export the output into a csv file as a report with column headers. I have used bcp command. Here column name and Column Header name is the same. The BCP query which i have used is Below
I am creating a report in SSRS which has the following criteria:
- Row 1 (parent) is 'Product'
- Row 2 (child) is  'Feed'
- Columns are date. Â I have 5 dates showing at any one time across the top. Â The date field is set up as a parameter so depending on the date the user selects, the report will show that date on the end column and then the 4 days prior to that in the other columns. Â Â
 - Data is the number of records.
I have a sub total on the Product and the report is collapsed on Product as default.
What i'm stuck on is trying to insert a column at the very end that will show the variance between the last two dates. Â So the difference between the date the user selected (@date parameter) and the day before that.Â
we are running 2014 enterprise. A couple of column headings (even with smaller font) are a little tall, as much as 6 "lines".   All headings in the respective matrices are aligned vertically as "bottom". When I save the report to excel, these taller headings get chopped off visually in their excel cell.  The cell contains the entire heading. It appears that the second "line" of the heading is the one that is most visible in excel.Â
How do I get these to be saved so user will see entire heading when opening excel doc? In the first matrix there is a text box directly above the matrix and only one row of column headings. In the second there is a higher column group heading containing month name above the problem headings.Â
I'm no dummy when it comes to this stuff but for the life of me I can't figure out how (if it is possible) to get column headers to go when exporting data. Here is the syntax I'm using:
It spits out the file fine. This is all built with dynamic SQL and needs to email the file which is does perfectly. My only problem is that there are no headers which I can't have. Any suggestions?
Does anyone know how to incorporate header and trailer info in the text output from a DTS task. The SQL I'm using in the task works well when outputting to a text file on the server. However, when trying to incorporate header and trailer info the process fails. I tried doing it using SQL but the DTS transformation process is looking for fields to transform when I'm trying to output a 3 line header and 2 line trailer with the output rows in between. Has anyone done this before? Your help would be greatly asppreciated.
Here is an example of the SQL that fails:
*** Trying to get header info here *** select 'Header' select 'filename.txt' select convert(char(11),getdate(),101)
*** Main SQL runs here *** select a.field1, a.field2, ...
from tblA a JOIN tblB b ON b.someid = a.someid JOIN tblC c ON c.someid = a.someid
where a.someval >= '2003'
*** Trying to get trailer info here *** select 'Trailer' select '' select count(id) FROM tblA
How do I put information only at the top of a page and have it change whenever a group occurs.
I want to do something like this. Have this on the top of every page:
Country: current country
State: current state
City: current city
There is a group on country, state and city. Whenever city changes the next page will display a new city. Whenever state changes the next page will display the new state in the header.
I have already put Country, State, and City into their own group headers. However, if either of them change in the middle of the page then the group header repeats. I have group header repeat on so I can see it on each page. If I choose the Page break at start then it breaks but I don't want it to break. I want it to run on the same page if it passes a group and then have the next page display relevant information for the group.
Putting it in the table header works as far as keeping them all on the top of the page but it doesn't change when a grouping ends.
I€™m trying to find a way to export all data from a table in to a csv file with a header. I€™m not concerned at this point with dynamic headers (that would be nice but at this point I€™m not picky). I would just like to find a way to programmatically drop a table to a csv file. use tempdb go create view vw_csvexport as select '"' + convert(varchar(50), Name) + '"', '"' + convert(varchar(50), ID) + '"' from TestHeaderTable union all SELECT top 100 percent Name = '"' + name + '"', ID = '"' + convert(varchar(50), ID) + '"'
FROM TestDataTable go
DECLARE @bcpCommand varchar(2000)
SET @bcpCommand = 'bcp tempdb..vw_export out c: est002.txt -c -T -S SERVER'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @bcpCommand
I get this error when I run this query Create View or Function failed because no column name was specified for column 1.
If I€™m going about this the completely wrong direction let me know so I can get heading the right direction to get this done.
I am having a matrix element in my report with two row groups and one column group. In column group i have the month names from jan to dec. I want the headers to be sorted on these month names.
Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec
RG1 RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG1 RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG1 RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG1 RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
RG1 RG2 X X X X X X X X X X X X
Here X is the measure. I want if the user click on Jan the measure values should be sorted in the Jan column and similarly for all the months.
would have a result set like (this is not an exact result from analyser)

I actually implementation of this is something vast, but I have illustrated a very simple example to explain what I want to achieve. Might seem a very simple 1 line solution, but I haven't been able to find it. .If ther is any documentation that might help please reply and point me to that..
Could someone describe to me how to have headers remain visible while scrolling in a matrix? I can do this in a table without a problem but can't seem to find this option for a matrix.
I am developing a matrix report in SRS. In columns group there are several values. When report runs they apper in any order based on the first record in row group. I want colums to apeear in specific order all the time. For example the column sequence in one out put is Follwup 1, Initial , Followup 2. I want to column header to be in order of Initial, Folloup 1, Followup 2. Can someone help?
It extends along a fair number of pages, and I'm currently using the "# of columns = 3" in the Report properties --> Layout section in order to make it span over 3 columns instead of the usual 1. I'm using a table in which the random info fields are the repeating values, and the Field 1,2,3,4,etc are included in the list control, but not part of the physical table itself.
My question stems from a couple of chunks of data which basically extend over the course of 1.5 pages (yep. There's enough to fill about 4.5 columns worth.)
I currently have
Field 1 RandomInfo50 RandomInfo100
RandomInfo1 RandomInfo51 RandomInfo101
Randominfo2 RandomInfo52 RandomInfo102
etc.... etc.... etc....
-----NewPage----
RandomInfo150 Field 2
Randominfo151 NewRandomInfo1
RandomInfo152 NewRandomInfo2
etc...
What I'm looking to do is have "Field 1" appear at the top of each column whenever a larger chunk of data forces itself into multiple columns, or even multiple columns on multiple pages. I have this nasty feeling it's something silly and blatantly obvious I'm missing...
I have the option for repeating table headers for every page turn on as I would like the table headers repeated on every page. In the HTML report view, this works fine, however when the report is exported to pdf (a total of 80 some pages), when there is a table that contains a lot of data, the table headers are not displayed. I know this could be because the table includes a subreport and sometimes the subreport runs more than one page, but shouldn't the table header still be diplayed on the new page?
Is there something else that I need to check or should I move the table/column header information somplace else?
