ReportViewer Control Doesnt Show 100% Of Report When Included In .Net Web Form With Other Controls
Apr 17, 2008
I created some controls for filtering the report that will be displayed on the same page, but below these controls. The controls take about 200px of the top of the form, while the report will be displayed in the rest of the page.
I'm using the ReportViewer control in Async mode, so it's being rendered as an Iframe, and this is necessary because some reports will take up to a couple minutes, so I want the loading animation.
As many of you know, this type of scenario will cause two scrollbars to be shown on this Web form: one for the main form, and the other for the Iframe containing the report. To prevent this, I have html,body set to overflow:hidden. This works great at preventing the outer scrollbar from showing, and only the report has a scrollbar.
The problem is that the bottom 200px (see first paragraph above) of the report doesnt show and cant be scrolled to. Has anyone come across a solution for this situation?
I'm basically stuck either having a report with two side by side scrollbars, or a report with 1 scrollbar that cuts off the last portion of each page of a report.
Our customer wants to display the exporting date only in the exported file when exports a report to PDF/Excel (we are using ReportViewer Control in ASP.NET). Can anybody tell me how to achieve this?
I have a report (rdlc) in my WinForm project that the data are filtered in accordance with two dates: Initial and End. These two dates, the user inform in a Form of the project. Well, what I need I am to inform in the report these two dates. How that I make to pass these two dates of form for the report?
I created a report with a parameter. The parameter was created using a dataset in the report designer. This works fine. I deployed the report (webhost4life) and the report runs fine in the report manager. I am able to select my casenumber click on the default view report button and it works.
Problem: I embedd the report into an aspx page frmReports1.aspx. I call this page from another page (form). the frmReports.aspx page comes up and displays the default drop down list box with the casenumbers (fine). I select the casenumber and click on the view report button and NOTHING. I here the postbacks taking place but all that happens is the default value appears in the drop down list box and the toolbar shows. I checked permissions and everything is fine. I searched the forum and thought i found the solution with the inLine HTML and Async (still nothing) I can only think that something is not going right with the parameter. Here is my html, and code behind code. any help would be greatly apprcieated.

Hello everyone, I have a report that has a "Jump to report:" link in it and in the report it jumps to there is another "Jump to report:" link. When I click on this link I get the following error.
The path of the item '(null)' is not valid. The full path must be less than 260 characters long; other restrictions apply. If the report server is in native mode, the path must start with slash. (rsInvalidItemPath)
I have tried moving the link from the header to the body of the report with the same results.
This is only happening in the web reportviewer control as our windows app works flawlessly.
We are running SQL SERVER 2005 SP2.
Does anyone have a fix, workaround or idea how to resolve this issue?
I have a report that displays fine in VS 2005 (in the Preview tab), and if I hit it via a URL in IE as a deployed report. However, when I embed it in a ReportViewer control for display on a web site, I get no data back for the report. I am using an Oracle database for the data source. None of the the logs in reporting services show anything wrong, there are no events in the event viewer to indicate any problems, Oracle logs also show no problems and no errors are returned to the page when the "View Report" button is clicked.
Hi, I would like to know how to call a report from a report viewer control in a web application. The reporting services is forms authenticated. I've done this authentication using the sample solution given by microsoft (adding custom security extension). Now am able to view the reports from Report manager and Report server URL. But i dont know how to authenticate the user from my web application and pass the credentials to the report server to view the report in report viewer control. Can somebody help in this? its bit urgent. Thanks in advance
When a ReportViewer control is used to access a report on a remote SQL Server database, on what ports does the communcation occur? Does the control communicate on on the SQL Server ports of 1433 and 1434 or does it communcate as a web service on port 80 (or 443 for HTPPS)?
I have a report which runs in local mode and while designing the report I have placed a single image control inside the list box as I don't know before hand how many images are there :
What is the way to show all the images using the one image control inside the report viewer control. ? Can be 2 or 3 or 4.....
I need to implement SQL server 2005 reporting services in my current project, we will be having a report server for that, now i am really confused ho should I integrate reporting services with my asp.net 2.0 web application.
My requirement consists of using tables, charts and graphs, need to save reports as excel, xml and csv formats and most important thing is report columns are dynamic, user can select/deselect some columns in a particular report.
Can any one help whether i should go for reportviewer in remote processing mode(then how can i pass column information) or should i go for url access or use SOAP API.
URL access looks easy to implement and really bowled out by SOAP API option, and dont know whether reportviewer can fulfill my requirements or not.
I am doing 350 controls as in a form like in reporting service . Due to so many controls the reporting sql server after deployment the preview and report must be slow. and i will checked the data transmission in stored procedure from sql server it will be faster.I am having doubt in controls in form will be slower.
Is there any suggestions without decrement the controls and to be report will be faster.
in both vs2008 I added a ReportViewer control to my WinForm, intending to render an RS 2005 report remotely. In the design pane (Report Viewer Tasks Popup) I specify <server report>, URL http://server name/reportserver$instance name path /folder/report name
I started getting a msg saying "the source of the report definition has not been specified". If I hit refresh, the report renders. Before I started playing with the designer setting, and only had the c# stuff specified, I wouldnt even get the message, the control would appear with all RS buttons (eg page forward arrow etc) disabled.
Does anybody know why the message is appearing and how to get c#'s settings to work immediately like designer settings?
I'm trying to insert data into a table from two sources (a table and form controls) at the same time. --this data from the tradeitem table and is inserted into the selections table --based on the variable @builderid --no problem it works fine as is INSERT INTO Selections ([TradeItemID], [TradeID], [ProductName], [OrigSalesPrice], [RevSalesPrice]) SELECT [TradeItemID], [TradeID], [TradeItem], [Price], [Price] FROM tradeitems WHERE BuilderID = '1' However, I need these also to pull from the form controls --These variables will pull from form controls and need to be associated --with each record added to the seleciton table INSERT INTO Selections ([UserDataID] = '1', [DefaultQty] = '0') --How do I get these combined into one statement so I get the following result?
When I create a deployment utility I... - set AllowConfigurationChanges to True. - set CreateDeploymentUtility to True - DeploymentOutputPath is set to binDeployment - I click 'Build' and it creates the binDeployment directory and writes all my DTSX files and my dtsConfig file But it doesn't create a manifest file. Why not? Thanks
After moving my deployment folder to the Target Server, I run the Installation Wizard. As I move next, I am missing the window which is supposed to allow me to set package config values as stated in MSDN:
"If the package includes configurations, you can edit updatable configurations by updating values in the Value list on the Configure Packages page."
Does anyone know why I am not seeing it? In my deployment bundle which I have moved over has currently 3 files:
1) SSIS Deployment Manifest
2) SSIS Package
3) SSIS Config File
Again, I double click on SSIS Deployment Manifest, and it starts fine. I go thru the steps for File System Deployment, and then it prompts for installation folder path. After that, it takes me directly to validation. Why is it not showing me the Configure Packages Page as described in the MSDN Documentation. Please advise. Thanks.
I have couple of reports designed and they are on the report server and those reports are driven using some strored procedures.
I am building a asp.net program and want to use the reportviewer control in it, and i was wondering if there is any way that i could reference the reports thats been created usiing BIDS and use them in report viewer, or do i have to build them from scratch.
Hi all, I have a gridview bound with a SQLDataSource. I am using the Update feature of the SQLDataSource to update a SQL Server database with values entered into the gridview. However I am not getting it to work. I believe this is due to the controls that contain the user entries are not the gridview itself, but rather child controls within the gridview. I have been using the names of the actual controls but nothing happens. Upon submit, the screen returns blank, and the database is not updated. Here is some code:
As seen above, controls such as txtPrimarySettlement are referenced but the update is not successful. The text boxes are within the GridEditSettlement gridview. In the .aspx code I cannot use FindControl (at least I don't think it will work). So the questions are: Is it possible to reference the child controls, if so - how? Is there another way to do this, such as in the vb code behind - in the either the gridview's RowUpdating event or the SQLDataSource's Updating event. What is the best approach? Anyone come up against this issue before? Thanks, KB
I am creating printed questionnaires based on data in a table. Portions of the layout must be exact and not be moved on the page.
I have some textboxes and rectangles on the left of a report and a table on the right. The table forces all the controls on the left to appear AFTER the last row and I can find no workaround. Basically, no controls can appear to the left of a table. The texboxes on the left give instructions to the user on how to fill out the items in the table on the right and I need them to remain where I place them. I have many other reports that require fixed positions.
Other report writers have texbox and label options to work around this . For example Visual Foxpro has an "Object Position" property with options for "Float", "Fix position relative to top of band", "Fix position relative to bottom of band". This allows the position to be forced if necessary.
This is very much needed and wanted in the Report Writer and I request it for the next release or service pack.
Hello I have wasted several hours on this simple problem and I'm ready to give up. I simply want SQL Server Management Studio on my laptop so I can connect to our 2005 servers and manage them. I have several different versions of 2005 from our MSDN subscription including but not limited to:
SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition (MSDN Library DVD) SQL 2005 Workgroup Edition SQL 2005 Standard Edition Visual Studio 2005 Team Foundation Server (SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition)
Everytime I tried to install it, the Server Management Studio simply would not install. I looked for the exe files and didn't find them. I verified the path several times and they simply didn't install. I googled and found a few solutoins but none helped. For example on: http://aspadvice.com/blogs/name/archive/2007/09/24/Installing-SQL-Server-Management-Studio-with-SQL-Server.aspx
They stated to go to the 'Tools' folder on the CD and run it from there, I do not have these folders on my SQL 2005 CD/DVDs. I tried to reinstall it a few times with selection only the management tools for the client, but it thinks I have SQL 2005 installed!!! I uninstalled it from add/remove, and it didn't work. I deleted the folders and it didn't work. I ran
msicuu2.exe and that still isn't working.
Are there ANY suggestions on how to get this freaking Server Management Studio installed? MS really blew it on this one. Thanks in advance.
I am invoking RS web services to render reports, using Apache Axis to generate stub classes from Reporting Service WSDL.
Please let me know if I can integrate Report Viewer control in the jsp where I am writing the report output. Else do I have to create my own custom tags simulating ReportViewer functionality.
The client side reportviewer control is used with a typed dataset in vs 2005. But I have noticed something that is really interesting, the turkish characters in the dataset are changed in the runtime enviroment when used with the reportviever control. such as.exec sp_executesql N'SELECT CASES._ID, CASES._OWNERID, CASES._LASTMODIFYDATE, CASES._DELETIONSTATUS, CASES._SECURITYCODE, CASES._NAME, CASES._STATE, CASES._DESCRIPTION, CASES._CATEGORY, CASES._TYPE, CASES.PRIORITY, CASES.REASON, CASES.ORIGIN, CASES.FROMDATE, CASES.TODATE, CASES.COMMENT, CASES.WHATID, CASES.WHATTYPE, VIEW_WHONAME.WHONAME, ORGANIZATION._NAME AS ORGANIZATIONNAME, PERSON.HOMETEL, PERSON.EMAILFROM CASES INNER JOIN VIEW_WHONAME ON CASES.WHOID = VIEW_WHONAME.WHOID INNER JOIN PERSON ON VIEW_WHONAME.WHOID = PERSON._ID INNER JOIN ORGANIZATION ON PERSON.WORKINGORGANIZATIONID = ORGANIZATION._IDWHERE (CASES._OWNERID = @ownerID) AND (CASES._ID = @entityID) AND (VIEW_WHONAME.WHOTYPE = ''KÄ°ÅÄ°'')',N'@ownerID smallint,@entityID int',@ownerID=1,@entityID=30 ------------------------------------>>> the bold area should be 'KİŞİ' which is a turkish string....What sholud I do? Do I need to configure the sql server or do I need to configure asp.net runtime?
We have a problem with our ASP.NET 2.0 app in one aspx page which contains reportviewer control.
The problem is in this: When this page is shown in IE6 the reportviewer control is working OK and the report is shown, but when this page is shown in IE7 reportviewer control starts to act strange. The report isn't shown until F5 or refresh button isn't clicked. Does anybody have problem like this one?
I want to use ReportViewer Control to show the data. Can I render report using Sql Server 2005 Reporting web service call. I didn't get any sample which allow me to host report on reporting server but view them using ReportViewer Control using webservice call rather than using URL.
I need to hide Reporting server URL location. And If you show report using ReportViewer Control using URL mechanism, anybody can see the report server url.
I have an ASP.NET web site with form authentication.
When I use a ReportViewer control in a page (with a masterPage) and my report (ServerReport and Remote processingmode) has DateTime parameters I can't see that calendar gif in order to select a date. Same thing with a DropDownList bound to a dataset for another paramater (I can't see that arrow from the right side of DropDownList so I can't dropdown it).
When I want to see the report with a browser direct from my Reports site it works fine. Only in reportviewer has this simptoms.
IE has some errors in script
1. 'RSClientController' is undefined
2. 'ClientControllerctl00_contentPanel_ReportViewer1' is null or not an object.
I have a Gridview control and a ReportViewer control that use the same datasource (SqlDataSource1). The gridview displays rows and columns of data and the ReportViewer displays a chart of the same data. This works fine when the page is initially loaded.
I also have a couple textboxes where the user can select a start and end date and press a submit button.
When the submit button is selected the SelectCommand of SqlDataSource1 is modified to use the new dates (SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand = SQLString).
The Gridview correctly updates the data based on the user-selected dates but the chart in the ReportViewer control does not change. It is still displaying the data before the user selected a start and end date. Why does this happen when they are using the same SqlDataSource1??

I want the reportviewer to display the report exactly over the entire screen. If I try to use "width=100%", the report viewer control expands beyond the screen area making us to scroll to view the "View Report" button. However, in the report manager, the same report gets displayed exactly occupying the screen size no matter what resolution the screen size is.
We have a project fully developed using framework 1.1 VS2003.
We are currently working on the reports, i see the reportviewer control but, there seems to be lot of problems.
Please does anyone know, is there a report viewer control developed by microsoft or somebody which works with VS2003 and pointing to SQL server RS 2005.
Please help thank you very much for the information.
Is there some way of troubleshooting errors when using the reportviewer control (with no reportserver).? Specifically, I am dynamically loading supreports and their ascociated datasets. I get an "Error: Subreport can not be shown." in the report viewer display panel at run time. In the past when I have gotten them it was a matter of randomly trying things until I hit on the problem. I can trace it to the point where I load the dataset for the subreport and all seems correct. There are no report parameters to be passed so I know its not that. I've double checked the subreportname,datasource and dataset names and they are all okay.
I've been successfully using the WinForm ReportViewer control to view reports from relational databases. I'm starting to investigate viewing reports based on Analysis Services 2005 multi-dimensional sources.
From my reading (including the following thread http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1432935&SiteID=1), it seems that the RDL Aggregate function is key to getting proper results in expressions.
The RDL spec indicates that the Aggregate function behaviour is tightly coupled with the Data Processing Extension (DPE). This is fine for web-based Reporting Services, but with the ReportViewer control, we do all data processing and provide a .NET DataTable object that the viewer consumes and evaluates expressions from.
How does the WinForm ReportViewer handle evaluating the Aggregate function when there is no DPE to talk to?
We have just upgraded from an embedded browser hosted RS2000 system to the Microsoft.ReportViewer.Winforms control for RS2005 in our applications, and have encountered a SOAP / firewall problem again.
We were using an embedded browser to display the reports, as some of our client sites block or strip the SOAP wrapper from SOAP 1.1 commands that the old RS2000 control tried to use when the data passes through their firewall. We have no control over, or visability of their firewall configuration, as this is part of their own site security.
Is RS2005 still using the same older version of SOAP, or has it been moved up to version 1.2, which I believe does not trigger as many alarm bells in some firewall systems.
We have no problems makeing web service calls to our own applications through the firewall, so its only the report viewer control that gives us these problems.
I have not been able to explicitly clarify this down to the SOAP version, but it looks too close the our previous firewall problem to be anything else - comments invited !!!!!
As an aside, is there any way to trace the inbound request through IIS to ReportServer so I can see what hits the report server ? The IIS logs alone show a request has been made, but no qualifying data, and the report server logs only seem to show processing once the request has been accepted. What I want to to is see the inbound request, and then the outbound error message being returned so I can confirm my suspicions.
I have posted a similar thread on google groups for reporting services.
Hi everyone,I followed the steps below to localize the report viewer control accoring to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms251723(VS.80).aspx" Deploying Localized Versions of ReportViewer ControlsThe ReportViewer control includes language packs for eight languages: Chinese-Simplified, Chinese-Traditional, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish. To use a localized version of the control, you must do the following:1. Run ReportViewer.exe.2. Navigate to the folder that contains the language pack you want to use. Language pack folders are located at <drive>:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8SDKv2.0BootStrapperPackagesReportViewer<lang>.3. Run ReportViewerLP.exe." But I could not find the ReportViewerLP.exe in the step 3. Could anyone please tell me why?Thanks a lot.Danny
Hi, Is it possible to create a web user control inheriting from Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportViewer? When I do this it gives me an error during compile saying
Code SnippetMake sure that the class defined in this code file matches the 'inherits' attribute, and that it extends the correct base class (e.g. Page or UserControl).
But the class definition of ReportViewer doesn't say it's sealed or non-inheritable. What is it that I am missing?
