Hi,
Is there a way to change the size of the fields (in this case a drop down list) on the filter page of ReportBuilder? I have an attribute I want to filter by, but the contents are too wide so the full thing can't be read if I set up an 'equals to' filter in ReportBuilder.
Thanks.....
I have like 100 columns and most of them work fine, but some will not work. I need to select the columns with correct width for fixed width flat file.
Here is typical SQL statment that works for most of them.
left(RTRIM(A.City) + Replicate(' ', 25) ,25) as [City]
The above one is not working, but many other works fine like the address. Why would it work for some, but not others?
It works fine if I use any char, but not space. i.e.
left(RTRIM(A.City) + Replicate('*', 25) ,25) as [City]
I have a subreport on my main report, and the subreport contains a matrix. When I run the report, the subreport seems to expand beyond the width of the main report. The matrix itself does not expand beyond the width of the body of the main report, but for some reason it seems that the subreport does. The subreport does not contain any headers that might be messing up the width. If I cut and paste the matrix from the subreport directly onto the main report, and remove the subreport, it prints fine. But as soon as I include the subreport on the main report it prints with blank pages because the subreport expands beyond the width of the body of the main report. I have checked the width and margins on the subreport and compared to the width of the main report and all looks good. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Is there a maximum width for fixed width column?
I'm trying to read in a flat file (which, admittedly, has one very wide column), and it keeps breaking because of truncation when it tries to read in the file.
Any ideas?

Hi,
I've a report projects where each report has a number of columns and the spec is to have all the columns print-out on the same page. Is there a setting that will auto-scale these columns to fit to the page or will I have to edit the font size and widths manually on each report to fit to the page?
Thanks for any comments.
Hi,
I am trying to create a program that transfers tables to flat files.
At this point in time, I have suceeded in created one that creates delimited files.
However, I am now trying to create fixed-width files as you can do with the SSIS designer, but programatically.
Is there a way to programatically determine the width of a column from the source table? I can not seem to find any kind of function or member that stores this information or allows me to retrieve it.
I know what I need to change in order to set a width for a column, but I just don't know how to find the width without just asking the user to provide one.
Hi, everyone
There is a table t1 with two fields, such as,
ID NAME
１ Ｔｏｋｙｏ
2 Xian
3 America
For there are full-width and half-width strings in the values of the two fields, I can not select and get the right records. So I want to transform the two fields ID and NAME, I fail to find the function in the SQL Server 2005. Please give me some advice.
Thank you very much!
I was the happy admin of some reportservers (build 3175) until someone asked me to get the ReportBuilder to work. I've read through the documentation and configured the SSRS site security so that the icon is visible. However when I click on it nothing happens. If I try to launch it by right clicking and then save as -- open I receive the following error:

Here are the things I have checked/tried:
Ensured the .NET Framework Reliant components are enabled in the browser
Running the browser with a user account that is local admin on the workstation
MIME settings on IIS server look ok
I am not seeing any access denieds on my workstation (checked with file and regmon)
I am not seeing any failures in the security event log
For the test that I am doing, both the user account, workstation and server are in the same domain
Don't see any errors in the SSRS logs
Can anyone think of anything else that would lead me to resolving this problem?

How to integrate reportbuilder with a .Net web application?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe created a custom security extension for RS using Forms Authentication. The issue I am having is in ReportBuilder when the forms authentication ticket expires. Forms auth will attempt to redirect (send a HTTP 302) and the report builder will show the error message "Object moved to here" instead of prompt for credentials. I have been watching the IIS logs and I see the first time report builder start it attempt to connect using default windows credentials and after the FormsAuthenticationRequired exception it will prompt for credentials and invoke LogonUser method, but this only happens the first time or if change the server in the url. I was expecting ReportBuilder to consider the Forms Authentication expiration at any time.
Do you have any idea how to work around this?
Any help is really appreciated.

I have a question about table layout report. I want to do that:
I have a table report and on that report i have a Total field of money. And i want to do that if condition on that field, so if the prize is less then 150, the color of the text it should be red otherwise it should be other color. So how can i achieve that. I know that this is possible in Reporting services in Report Designer is like =IIF(field.???.Value<150;"red";"gree")
But if i make that same in report builder, the what it does, it displays not the value in color, but it displays the text "red" od "green".
I will be very happy and gratefull if somebody can help me.
thank you in advance.

Hi !
I'm trying to figure out how can i get a list of the reports made with reportbuilder. I have create a folder in ReportManger and all my report are in this folder.
When i create report with ReportDesigner i get a .RDL file, but when i create a report using reportBuilder i can't file the file created. What i want to do is to create in our web application a Web page with a list of report that our client has create using ReportBuilder. I was thinking about doing a loop on the folder for each report File but i can't find those files.
Any idea ?
Thanks!

Hi !
We have made a lot of reports using Visual Studio. Now some of our client would like to customize those reports. We have install ReportBuilder on their server to allow them to create their own reports. Everything is working fine when they are trying to create new reports. The problem is when they are trying to customize reports that we have made using Visual Studio.
When they are trying to open those reports in ReportBuilder they get this Error:
One or more unexpected Report Definition Language (RDL) elements of the following type have been removed: DataSetMicrosoft.ReportingServices.ReportBuilder.ReportModel.Report: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The operation you are attempting on item "/Data Sources/DataSource1" is not allowed for this item type. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.WrongItemTypeException: The operation you are attempting on item "/Data Sources/DataSource1" is not allowed for this item type. at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.ModelCatalogItem.ModelStorage.GetModelItemIDAndItemSecurity(ModelCatalogItem model) at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.ModelCatalogItem.ModelStorage.LoadModel(ModelCatalogItem model, Boolean getModelDefinition) at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.ModelCatalogItem.LoadModel(CatalogItemContext modelContext, Nullable`1 requiredOperation, Boolean getModelDefinition) at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.ModelCatalogItem.LoadUserModel(CatalogItemContext modelContext, Nullable`1 requiredOperation, String perspectiveID) at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.GetUserModelAction.PerformActionNow() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.RSSoapAction.Execute() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WebServer.ReportingService2005.GetUserModel(String Model, String Perspective, Byte[]& Definition) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WebServer.ReportingService2005.GetUserModel(String Model, String Perspective, Byte[]& Definition)
We get this error for each report that we have create under Visual Studio (All those report use parameters). Is there a way to allow our client to customize those reports ?
Thanks !!

Does anyone know how that I can get the reportbuilder.application to run on a client on the network. It seems that if I have to remote into the actual server to get the report builder to work would be pointless for users on the network. I get the 401 Unauthorized all the time. Any comments would help.

(I wish I was able to attach pictures....anyhow I'll try my best without them)
The customer's goal is to via ReportBuilder to select fields from multiple
many-to-many relationships. They are able to see the fields that exists
within the various many-to-many relationships but IS ONLY able to select
fields from ONE many-to-many relationship. Example using AdventureWorks:
DataSourceView (relationships automatically generated by wizard)
Contact ---< VendorContact >--- Vendor
Contact ---< StoreContact >--- Store
Contact ---< ContactCreditCard >--- CreditCard
So the goal in the ReportBuilder is to be able select fields from
Contact/Vendor/Store/ and CreditCard.
PROBLEM is that the ReportBuilder ONLY allows user to select fields from
Contact/Vendor OR Contact/Store OR Contact/CreditCard (exclusively)
The only workaround I've found is to reverse the relationships in the
DataSourceView to the following
Contact >--- VendorContact ---< Vendor
Contact >--- StoreContact ---< Store
Contact >--- ContactCreditCard ---< CreditCard
This works however we need an explanation as to why it only works this way?
Thanks in advance

On the local machine and local network we can start and use reportbuilder perfectly.

Can someone help?
Hello,
Here is my problem:
I use SQL Server 2005. I have approx. 50 tables in my database and 30 of them have a filed named "CompanyID". Example:
create table A (ID int identity, NAME varchar(100), COMPANYID int)create table A (ID int identity, REF_ID int, FIELD1 varchar(100), FIELD2 varchar(100), COMPANYID int)
Also there are nearly 200 stored procedures that read data from these tables. Example:
create procedure ABCasbegin /* some checks and expressions here ... */ select ... from A inner join B on (A.ID = B.REF_ID) where ... /* ... */end;
All my queries in the Stored procedure does not filter the tables by CompanyID, so they process the entire data.
However, now we have a requirement to separate the data for each company. That means that we have to put a filter by CompanyID to each of those 20 tables in each query where the tables appear.
Firstly, I put the CompanyID in the context so now its value is accessible through the context_info() function. Thus I do not need now to pass it as a parameter to the stored procedures.
However, I don't know what is the easiest and fastest way to filter the tables. Example:
I modified the above mentioned procedure in the following way:
create procedure ABCasbegin /* some checks and expressions here ... */
-- gets the CompanyID from the context: DECLARE @CompanyID int; SELECT @CompanyID = CONVERT(float, CONVERT(varchar(128), context_info()))
select ... from A inner join B on (A.ID = B.REF_ID) where ...
and A.COMPANYID = @CompanyID and B.COMPANYID = @CompanyID /* ... */end;
Now I have the desired filter by CompanyID. However, modifying over 200 stored procedures is rather tedious work and I don't think that this is the best approach. Is there any functionality in SQL Server that can provide the possibility to put an automatic filter to the tables.
For example: when I wrote "SELECT * FROM A", the actual statements to be executed would be "SELECT * FROM A WHERE CompanyID = CONVERT(float, CONVERT(varchar(128), context_info()))".
I was looking for something like "INSTEAD OF SELECT" triggers but I didn't manage to find any answer.
I would very grateful is someone suggests a solution for something like "global table filter" (that will help me make an easy refactoring)?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Beroetz
Howdy,
I have a table that has a group. In this group, I want to filter by 2 different expressions, concatenated with an OR. BUT I can't change the "And/Or" column value for the first entry because it is grayed out. The column will automatically change to an OR value if both my expression column fields are the same (which I don€™t want) but if I put any other value in to the expression field of the second row, the "And/Or" field of the first row automatically changes to an AND.
PLEASE! How do I get the And/Or field "ungrayed" so I can change it to what I want?
The 2 filters I and using check the UserID = to the user, and the other is checking a count to get the Top N 1. (So just showing the current user and the top producer)

Hello,
How can I change the width of my comboboxes etc in SQL Enterprise Manager ?
I can't see which table I'm supposed to be updating and it's causing me huge problems.
(basically my fields are called things like Staging_EmployeeDetails etc)
I'm on a 17" monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 so this shouldn't be an issue, and all screens are maximized.
I've tried dragging the corners of the window, but it doesn't seem to let me.
As an example, I'm in the export wizard and I can't tell which rowto use when I query the data (See screenshot)
I'm not very familiar with sql server 2005, and am trying to create some reports for the first time. I created 4 fairly basic reports. Three of them work just fine. The fourth one is giving me fits. When I look at it in Visual Studio, it previews just fine - generates the correct data and everything. When I deploy it to report services, however, it gets squashed sideways, so that it is about three times too narrow. I've looked at both the body properties and the report properties, and they all appear ok when compared to the other three reports. The body width is set to 8.9 inches, and the report page size and interactive size properties are set to 8.6 inches.
Can anyone point me in the right direction, or am I going to have to start from scratch?
Thanks in advance...

Is there a way to change the width of the bars in a bar chart?
I know that there is an option to 'Plot the data as line', but for some reason this is greyed out.
Any ideas on both?
I have been looking over the forums looking for answers to the question that nails us all: how do you dynamically resize column widths? MS says: you don't. However, I have heard many people say they have found ways around it. I wonder if anyone might share those with me (and everyone else). Share the wisdom you have gained with those less experienced!

Folks,
We have some reports that have optional columns. We have them working very nicely, with the column showing or hiding based on values in the report -- works great.
Except -- when the columns are present, the report spans onto two pages, when exported to PDF, in width. That's understandable, as there's a lot of extra data, and exactly what we want. However, when the columns are not present, we get empty pages instead, because the report doesn't automatically contract back onto the size that fits on one page.
Changing the report to a Matrix won't work, as the hidden columns on some of these come as sets of three, where each column in the three has different formatting (different widths, format codes, etc).
Thanks!

Hi,
May I know is there a way to control the size of the parameter drop down box? In my current box, the width increase according to the option with label of the longest length, in which causes my report's width to increase out of my control.

Hi,
I have a matrix object in a report that sometimes runs off the side of the page based on the underlying data. Essentially if there are more than 11 columns it stretches out my page.
How can I fix this? Ideally, I would like to show only the Top 11 results but cannot seem to figure out how (or where, or on what data element) to properly set a filter.
Thanks.
