Hi All,
I cannot find any way to retrieve the "author" of the report via code in asp .net. The author is in the "report properties" window.
Could somebody please help me with this ?
Thanks
"InteractiveHeight is only supported on RS 2005. Opening a report in BI Development Studio of SQL Server 2005 will automatically add this property. You can find the property on the Report element. In report designer (properties window) it is also on the report element / Layout / Interactive Size / Height."
Why don't I see the Report Properties screen that includes the Interactive Size elements? My Report Properties screen looks the same as it did in VS2003.
I need to modify the InteractiveHeight element. It has been added to the RDL source.

Good day. I am wanting to author a function in the CRM DB. The function does not write to any tables or views in any way, but is a function to convert HTML into plain text - ie. a tag stripper. HTML in and clear text out. Could this cause a problem in the MSCRM DB?
Thank you in advance,
Chris.
Greetings -
Am having problems setting a normal SSN xxx-xx-xxx format for a report textbox using the Textbox Properties / Format tab. The data is stored as text, and am using the "Format Code .... " option. When I choose "Custom" option, and attempt any formatting string containing the "-", the SSN is displayed without the "-". Nothing I have tried works.
What is the correct context string for this format?
Tks.
The above statement will work fine. But what if the user inputs H G Wells, or there is an entry in the DB as H G Wells? How can I make sure all his books are selected in any case.
I can think of a couple of ways of overcoming it, though I'm unsure what the overhead and the pros and cons are.
My question to the forum is: What is the best way of dealing with this situation?
Thanks, in anticipation...

I have installed and am using Reporting Services.
I can create RDL files using Visual Studio.NET, but like to offload this task to a minion who does not have VS.NET.
Is there a stripped down something-or-other to make reports that and end user or business analyst could use and then upload the reports?
Thanks.
This is a very frustrating problem.
Let me break it down for the reader.
I have an agent service account that works fine - the account that jobs run under.
I know it works fine because this is the same account all my SQL Backup jobs run under - without a hitch.
I also have a valid sql server account that I use for connection string logins when building packages -
that account works fine. I know it works fine because I can login to the SQL Server Manager with this account.
So, I build a package with the sql server account and password for the OLE DB connection manager in a package. All the package does is a simple query on a table and outputs to a flat file.
I create a job, with 'sa' as the owner. in step 1 I select SSIS package, run as SQL Agent Service Account, package source is file system and I point to the package. The package itself uses the sql server login account to execute.
If I run the package it works fine. I close the solution, someone else comes along and opens the solution - THEY CHANGE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT THE LOGIN OR SQL AGENT SERVICE ACCOUNT, but apparently just the fact that they opened the solution and looked at the package, breaks the login. If they try to run the package, they get a login failure, whereas I did not. After they close it, it breaks for me as well. If they open the solution, open the connection manager, re-enter the sql login's password, the package works fine for them, until I come along and open the solution, then it is broken again.
This makes no sense to me. Why would an 'author' opening a solution impact the connection manager when ABOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT THE CONNECTION MANAGER WAS CHANGED?!
Seems like a bug to me. Anyone seen something like this?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Is it possible to establish a set of default report and report body properties, perhaps in an ini file of some sort so that upon creating a new project and adding a new report item the developer does not have to go through the process of setting up all the interactive sizes, margins, paper sizes, etc each and every time? We have an established header that we incorporate on all reports and while in transition to the new Reporting Services it was my hope of finding something will create the first set of default conditions to help us automate the process just a bit.
Thank you.
I put a function in the code section of Report Properties. I went to add an expression and can't find the function. I type =code. and did not see the function I created in the list.
Here's my code below:
Code Snippet
Public Function ConvertToStartDate(ByVal StartDate As String) As DateTime
Select Case StartDate
Case "Today"
Return DateTime.Today
Case "Yesterday"
Return DateTime.Today.AddDays(-1)
Case "30DaysOut"
Return DateTime.Today.AddDays(+30)
Case "2DaysPrior"
Return DateTime.Today.AddDays(-2)
' Additional cases
Case Else
Throw New ArgumentException("Unknown argument, " & StartDate, "StartDate")
End Select
End Function
I should be able to put in expression =code.ConvertToStartDate.StartDate("Today"), but that does not work. I get a red squiggly line under StartDate.
Thanks for your help,
Iris
Hi, all experts here,
Thanks a lot for your kind attention.
I have been trying to adjust the report regions fit into the whole report page. I could see the width and height property of the whole report page from the report property dialogue, but where can I find the width and height for the particular report region like the table? Then I could accordingly adjust the layout of both the report page and report region like table?
Hope my question is clear for your help.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
I am modifying a report that sets this variable at the beginning of every dataset:
declare @current_minute int
set @current_minute = DATEPART(N, GETDATE()) % 3
My idea is to set this variable in the Report Properties instead. When I do set this variable it in a Text Box or a Dataset, I get errors such as:
The expression used for the calculated field '=Variables!report_var.Value' includes a variable reference. Variable values cannot be used in calculated field expressions.
The Variable(report_var) expression for the report ‘body’ contains an error: [BC30451] Name 'N' is not declared.
What other strategies can I use to set a variable globally, instead of at the beginning of each dataset?
If you look at the General Properties for a report in Report Manager, there are 4 properties listed at the top:
Modified Date:
2/26/2007 6:37 PM
Modified By:
DOMAINusername1
Creation Date:
2/14/2006 5:19 PM
Created By:
DOMAINusername2
What I'm looking for is if there's a way to retrieve these properties via an expression from a textbox within a report. For instance, there's already an expression that is:
=Globals!ReportName
I know it won't be that easy for the CreatedBy, CreationDate, ModifiedBy, and ModifiedDate properties, but I thought I'd ask if there was a workaround or hack.
We're wanting to put that info into the footer of all our reports. (Actually this is for Report Builder reports, but you can still use expressions in Report Builder reports, so it should apply as it would to normal reports.)
I have an ODBC connection string that is working fine with the following properties:
Database="XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY"; strangely no server is specified in the string, but it is specified in the ODBC Connection file.
I am trying to do a new server registration in SSMS for this database.However, I don't understand where the network spec is placed.
Under Registered server name I've tried:
YYYYYYXXXXX
When I browse the server for the database instance list, I receive "network path was not found".
I even tried:"XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY" for the registered server name.Same error message.
What am I doing wrong ?
is there anyway to retrieve the database properties and display in an asp.net web form as a quick over view rather than logging onto the server to check, items such as size, space available, last backup data etc? Cheers

specifying the default database means what. for instance when I add alog in user and I have to choose a default database. Does it make a difference if the Default database is Master or any other user database name. What is the significant to select Master vs any other database.
Thanks,

Hello!
We are having problems with a single SQL Server where the Server properties will not save, and always revert to the default.
It occurs only on those tabs with "configured" and "running" options at the bottom. Other tabs will keep the settings we custom.
The big problem is with the memory and processor tabs which even when we've made only a single change and stopped and started the service, reverts back to a default.
Any clues - we are logged in as "sa" and have not removed the SA priviledges.
Thanks for any help,
Simon

Plz help me to know whats wrong with following script:
EXEC sp_addextendedproperty
@name = 'col_Programs_ID_Description',
@Value = 'The Unique Identifier for a specific Program',
@level1Type = 'Programs',
@level2Type = 'ID'
I get the following error:
Server: Msg 15600, Level 15, State 1, Procedure sp_addextendedproperty, Line 42
An invalid parameter or option was specified for procedure 'sp_addextendedproperty'.
NOTE: If I dont use the last 2 parameters this procedure runs fine, but it adds the Extended Property to the Database Level while I'm trying to add it to the TABLE-->COLUMN level.
Thanks

Running SQL2000 SP3.
We installed an application named Streamserve. Now, if I go into Enterprise Manager I can expand the databases fine. But when I try to right-click properties Enterprise Manager goes bye bye. No error messages. I tried this on master and same thing. I currently have 2 different machines - a dev and a QA box and both are behaving badly.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
when ever I try to look at the properties of a job, the create new job window appears. what gives?
When I create a new database it asks for information regarding the Data files.
What is it for? Will this file get creted to the location that I write?
How often will it get copied there?

Hello
Im having abit off trouble with my images positioning..
I have 3 images in the header placed side by side with a rectangle around them sent to the back
In layout view the images look correct, however when i deploy the report the rectangle appears on top and then the images appear undernealth each other...when they should be inside the rectangle. is there something like float on top properties similar to objects in Word?
A separate question, I also have a table to the right off the table i have an image and under that image another image...when i preview the report the second image is pushed to the bottom of where the table ends...is there someway to make the image appear side by side to the table instead off getting pushed down to the bottom...something similar to a frame in HTML ?
thanks
Hi.
I am trying to look for ways on how to get all the databse properties under each instance.
say I want to view the size, recovery model, physical location, etc.
The sys.database_files is only applicable per database. Is there a query, or a table in master database to get these or store these values?
thanks...
Hi:
Does anyone know of a good primer on extended properties and why I would want to use them. I have you the on-line books sections but that does a clear "why". I have search for white papers and similar documents.
I understand they are good for documentation, but I was looking for something that explain Microsoft long-term vision. How I might use them in template scripts, VSTS, etc.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi all, Is it possible when creating a stored procedure through visual studio using a sql server 2005 project, to set the sizes of the parameters that are specified. For example:
public partial class test{ [Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure] public static void addRecord(string name, string details) { ................. some code ................. }}
Would it be possible to set the size of the parameter 'details' to nvarchar(max) and 'name' to nvarchar(50) or something along those lines. The problem at the moment is that when this project is deployed both of the parameters are set to 4000 characters and sometimes the details parameter are greater than 4000 characters and it is being truncated.
I am currently running some sql that alters the procedure to set the sizes of the parameters but this isn't really an ideal solution.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

I am trying to find information on Database properties - more specifically, what the 'Space Available' means, because right now when I look at the properties of a database I am setting up, which will grow substantially I am sure, it says the database size is 154 MB and the Space Available is 42 MB. What is the Space Available? What does this refer to and is it going to be restricting the growth of the database? Thanks.

I have a chart that is created in SSRS with the size property set to '15cm, 8.5cm', I want to set the height based on a parameter that is passed to the chart ( so that it fits onto a 1 page report it is fed through to), I have tried putting =Code.SetChartHeight() in the height property but it brings up an error saying it needs to be in a format like '8.5cm'. The SetChartHeight() function just returns the height parameter + 5.
Does anyone know how I can do this?
Many thanks in advance
