Reporting Services :: Expression To Change All Caps To First Letter Uppercase And Rest Lowercase
Aug 1, 2015
The states in this report are all in caps TEXAS, CALIFORNIA, etc.. Is there a way to use expressions to only have the first letter in uppercase and rest in lowercase?
I know you are able to display data all uppercase or all lowercase, but how do you display it First letter capital rest lower. Like a First or Last name?
I would like SQL Server 2000 to distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters, but only within a single stored procedure. Also, at the end of the sp, I want the original collation to be restored. How will I implement this in my sp?
Is there a way of taking a result from a query and pulling out a certain account number and displaying those account numbers - as fred? Eg. I have a drop down of account number (s) however they pull from a table that only displays them as account numbers. I would like to give more a description to certain account numbers that are pulled. Eg. account number 234 will be fred and account number 555 will be sam etc. Trying to add it to the query on the dataset is complicated, so I was wondering if I created an additional blank field with an expression to be able to do this?Â
Hi all!This is the problem:User enters student name, in the database, only the 1st letter is uppercase and the rest is in Lower case.So, I want to fix this so as it is not case sensitive, i.e. the user can enter a name and it will return the recordwhether they enter it in upper or lower case.My Code:CvtUpperCase.Text = UCase(Content.Text) //stores user's input Select Case OptionChoice Case "Student_FirstName" MyCommand = New SqlDataAdapter("select * from [qryStudentDetails] where [qryStudentDetails].[Student_FirstName] like '" & CvtUpperCase.Text & "'" , myConnection) ....Any ideas??
Hi everybody, I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?
I have created 1 report with 2 datasets. This report is attached to the 1st dataset.For example,1st one is "Smallappliances", 2nd is "Largeappliances".
I created a tablix and, the 1st column extracts Total sales per Sales person between 2 dates from 1st dataset (Small appliances). I used running values expression and it works fine.
Now, I would like to add another column that extracts Total sales per sales person between 2 dates from 2nd dataset (Large appliances). I am aware that I need to use Lookup expression and it is giving me the single sales value rather than the total sales values. So, I wanted to use RunningValue expression within lookup table to get total sales for large appliances.
This is the lookup expression that I added for the 2nd column.
I get this error when I preview the report.An error occurred during local report processing.The definition of the report is invalid.An unexpected error occurred in report processing.
I have found a stored proceedure that will convert a string from any format to initial caps followed by lower case letters. However, I'm such a newbie to SQL Server that I have no idea how to run the SP on a table.
Here is the stored proceedure: http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=581&lngWId=5
How would I get this to run within a query to update a field?
For example, I have a field called 'name' with records like: 3M <- should remain '3M' 123 INTERIORS <--- should be '123 Interiors' ALLIED SIGNAL <-- should be 'Allied Signal'
I instance where customers want to migrate SQl dB to a new server. I want to change part of the path to lowercase.
The part to be change is always a computer name i.e. ComputernameDatareportA24440 testUser.doc I want to define the computername and the script changes only the computername to lowercase
Using Update Table set Path =LOWER(Path) -- etc. Go
Changes all the path to lowercase,
Note the Computername will always be different depending on the customer. The reason for changing the PCname to lowercase each client can type the PC name in various ways
Hi all,I wrote the following expression in one cell in my table if there is no value for fields i am getting the following out put in that particular cell. I am calculating percentage. I have more than one datasets in my report.
Below is my query, it output's a percentage based on some calculations that i've had to make to fit in with requirements.The trouble is that it is also coming with NaN values which i need set to 0%,modify the below query to accomplish this?
I have a ssrs report R1 having a button B1 and a another report R2. On the click of B1 i want to download R2 in excel format.I have used action->Go to url property on B1 and have used the below expression to fetch the url for downloading R2 in excel format.  =Globals!ReportServerUrl &"?" & Globals!ReportFolder & "/" & "ReportName" & "¶m1=" & Parameters!param1.Value & "¶m2=" & join(Parameters!param2.Value,",") & "&rs:Format=excel"
The above expression is working.But if the parameter values contain "&" then i need to handle it in the url so i used the below expression.
but it is not working and giving the below error.The path of the item ' ' 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).
@StartDate is a report parameter and CustomerNo is the field I want to render on the report,I want to combine the sql ,but it display the error message below when I preview the report.If I query in the design form and input the value of the parameter ,it run correctly . --------------------------------------------- Data sql: declare @sql nvarchar(4000) declare @sqlWhere nvarchar(4000) set @sql='select CustomerNo from table1 ' set @sqlWhere=''
if @StartDate<>'' begin set @sqlWhere =@sqlWhere + ' StartDate=''' +@StartDate + '''' end if ltrim(rtrim(@sqlWhere))<>'' begin set @sqlWhere =' where ' + @sqlWhere end set @sql=@sql+@sqlWhere
exec sp_executeSQL @sql ------------------------------------------ Error message: [rsFieldReference] The Value expression for the textbox €˜CustomerNo€™ refers to the field €˜CustomerNo€™. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope.
I have a report with an expression to give a calculated field value (VoidDays) as follows:=DateDiff("d",Fields!Void_Start.Value, IIf(Fields!Void_End.Value is nothing, today, Fields!Void_End.Value))I have a number of different codes in the output such as VLOSS, VMAINT, VHOUS etc.When I run my report my days total for VLOSS is always correct but all other values are one day short. In the example shown in image below VMAINT should be 6 days and VHOUS should be 20 days which would then both add up to the VLOSS of 26 days  I cant currently fix these days at source for a number of reasons hence I need to fix these on the report output.How can I add one day onto each of my Void Days Total for every code except VLOSS which is always correct.
Which works except when there is no actual discharge date. it will not see the current date that the first expression adds but still shows a huge negative value.
Is there any way to default to the first day of the month in a SSRS expression. I'm looking to do the reverse of the EOMONTH() function.The date value is coming from a parameter @BegDate and formatted YYYY-MM-DD. So if the parameter is set to 2015-08-31 it would show 2015-08-01
Is it possible to use a IIF IsNothing expression and check another condition? For all the values that are blank, I want it to check another column if  "Disposition" = 2 then I want to show "Inactive"
I have a stacked column with 2 series("phones", "no phones") on the categories, What I am trying to do is to show only one of the series in each category,I used the visibility option in the series properties, and chose show or hide based on an expression using the expression below if(Fields!PENETRATIONSERIES. Value="no phone",FALSE,TRUE) i get no graph , But when I switch the true and false value, the graph show with the two series there.
Report 1:Â This report has a tablix and a pie chart which displays member counts for genders.Dataset is written such that the gender names are always displayed in the tablix even when the count is Zero for Female and Male
Report 2:Â This report has a tablix and a pie chart which displays member counts for category Age.Dataset is written such that the age category names are always displayed in the tablix even when the count is Zero for age categories
Both Report 1 and Report 2 are place in separate rectangles and then these 2 rectangles are place in one single rectangle.Now I want to hide this main rectangle with an expression.
This is making the heatmap look at the whole dataset instead of just what I am grouping by. Within the Dataset there are Regions and Credit Unions. Since the Dataset is looking at an entire region, the heatmap is coloring based on all data for the region. I need to heatmap to color based on the Credit Unions in that region. The Credit Unions are a group. I need the group to be the value it is referencing in the heat map and not "DataSet1". I have been told to use scope or a variable but cannot get it to work correctly.
I have a data field in a SSRS Report that contains the requestor's User Id. Their ID is prefixed with "PRIV"...And I'm assuming that is the direct result of the network domain. I need to create a SSRS expression to determine if the User ID is prefixed with "PRIV" and then parse that out and use what's behind the "" as their true User Id.
example...."PRIVID123456" should appear as "ID123456" in the report data line.
I am using the following expression to place the month in the heading of a column.
=MonthName(Month(DateAdd("M",-1,Now)))
The expression above gives me the previous month, but I need to have it as "Jan", not "January".
expression that will give me the three character month name instead of the full month. Â I've tried substituting the "M" with "MMM", but get an error. Â I've also tried "Mon", but again, I get an error.
I tried enclosing the query in Abs( ), which I have done in the past, although in the past I wasn't using Lookup functions so I don't know if that is the reason it won't work.
