Reporting Services :: Obtaining Column Names From Data?
May 16, 2015
Got a table like:
Reporting_DateCustomerSales...
In such a case need a view with custom headers with a prefix of Latest date found in the first field of Reporting_Date.
In other words if Reporting_Date consists data like following six entries:
1-JAN-201031-DEC-2013NULL14-AUG-2014NULL31-MAR-2015
Then, could there be anyway to achieve a View with the headers (i.e. complete data without any filtration) in the following form:
Mar312015_Reporting_DateMar312015_CustomerMar312015_Sales...

I'm hoping someone can shed some light on a reliable way to get Reporting Services if you don't have an MSDN subscription.
I have registered copies of SQL Server 2000 Developer and SQL Server 2000 Standard that I bought late last year.
I've had a backorder with MS Parts since January to get updated CDs with Reporting Services on them. Each month, the back order is pushed up another month. The disks are now due sometime in late May. I called the fulfillment center and the operator end didn't seem too enthusiastic about it coming in stock anytime soon.
All 3 versions (Developer, Standard, and Enterprise) are on a long back-order.
I thought I could get by temporarily by using the 90-day trial copy of Reporting Services, but I'm now concerned it might run out before I get my own non-trial version.
Isn't there a way for legit users to get a hold of this product? I'd be happy to download it, but it's not available unless I want to pay add'l money for an MSDN subscription.
_ANY_ suggestions or help appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi
I am creating a report on a database where some of the table names start
with the @ sign - ie @table1.
Reporting services picks this up as a parameter, instead of a table name in
my query, even though I am encapsulating the table name in square brackets
eg. [@table1]
I have several data sets in the report that i am using to populate valid
parameters. These datasets are all variations of queries from tables that
have @ as the first character.
When i then try to run the report i get an error message as follows:
"The report parameter pool has a default value or a valid value that depends
on the report parameter SD_POOLCONTRACTS. Forward dependencies are not valid"
This is frustrating as SD_POOLCONTRACTS is not a report parameter but one of
the database tables that has @ for it's first character.
here is the query that i use to obtain the valid values for the pool report
parameter that i am trying to set up.
SELECT distinct u_poolcode as Pool
FROM OCRD INNER JOIN
OCRG ON OCRD.GroupCode = OCRG.GroupCode INNER JOIN
CRD1 ON OCRD.CardCode = CRD1.CardCode inner JOIN
[@SD_POOLCONTRACT] INNER JOIN
[@SD_POOLCONTRCT_LINE] ON [@SD_POOLCONTRACT].DocEntry
= [@SD_POOLCONTRCT_LINE].DocEntry INNER JOIN
[@SD_CONTRACTS] ON [@SD_POOLCONTRCT_LINE].U_DocNo =
[@SD_CONTRACTS].DocNum ON
case when len(ocrd.fathercard) = 0 then ocrd.cardcode
else ISNULL(OCRD.FatherCard, OCRD.CardCode) end = [@SD_CONTRACTS].U_CardCode
WHERE (OCRD.CardType = 'c') AND (OCRG.GroupName LIKE N'producer%') AND
(CRD1.AdresType = 'b')
ORDER BY OCRG.GroupName, FatherCard, OCRD.CardCode
Any help would be appreciated.

We run std 2008 r2. I'm looking at the files this transform is complaining about. They seem to be named appropriately. The customerid folders don't exist when this runs. I'm going to put one in place to see if that is the problem.
The errors i'm getting are...
[Export Column [22]] Error: The file name "c:usersmyuserid heprojectnamecustomeridafilename.doc" is not valid. The file name is a device or contains invalid characters.
[Export Column [22]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR. The "component "Export Column" (22)" failed because error code 0xC020207F occurred,
and the error row disposition on "input column "FILENAME" (29)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.

I'm in the process of converting a rather huge VSAM database into a set of SQL tables.
I am using the same data names from the mainframe (like XDB-NAME to RDB-NAME).
I load the files using Import Export Data and it makes the tables with such column names as col001, col002, col003, etc... and always sets the data types to varchr(255).
And I have to cut and paste the data names from the manframe side to the server side (and the data types to.)
So, is there an easier way to do this? Or am I doomed to cut-n-paste my days away...
Thanks for any help.

Ok, i am finally giving in on this one and asking for some help! I am trying to set up a T-SQL Statement that will extract data from all the tables in the current database to a csv file including Column names!
I know that bcp can not handle the column names, so i tried to get around this with an append of the column names from a select, but unfortunatly the select gives me the names in Alpha order and not the order of the fields.
I have tried putting in an order by on the select, but this does not seem to have any effect. I have included the snippet of my script that is causing the problem here :
-- set up the echo command
select @colcommand= 'exec master..xp_cmdshell'
+ ' '''
+ 'echo ' + @names + ' >> c:cp' + TABLE_CATALOG + '.' + TABLE_SCHEMA + '.' + TABLE_NAME + '.txt'
+ ''''
from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES where TABLE_NAME=@TABLE
and just in case you are interested in the rest of the script, the full monster is included at the bottom of the post. Also if you can see any more efficient ways of doing what i am trying to do, please let me know!
Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi all,
I'm working on my first data warehouse and I'm not sure how I should name the columns in the database.
The first phase of the data warehouse is to store a bunch of data from one third party source. The source contains over 100 pieces of data and the business user doesn't even know what some of the fields are but he wants to store everything. The third party refers to the each field with a somewhat cryptic short name and a longer description. The short name isn't always cryptic.
My question is am I better off naming my columns the same as the source system's short name so that I can easily debug problems later? Should I instead try to shorten their definition into something meaningful? On a side note, I'm 100% positive that we'll never populate the tables in questions with data from an additional source.
Thanks!

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. I have 5 dates showing at any one time across the top. 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.
- 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. So the difference between the date the user selected (@date parameter) and the day before that.

How do I get the values of a column from a table separated by a comma.
For example
Suppose I have a table with column Levels (below), I want the values of the corresponding column separated by a comma, so that I can use this in a different query to pull these values from a different table
Levels
Level1Name
Level1Value
Level2Name
Level2Value
Result should look like
Level1Name, Level1Value, Level2Name, Level2Value
Thanks

As part if a recent requirement I have to export Chinese/Singaporean names in a CSV file. The data in the tables is a NVARCHAR(256).
I am using a FlatFile Connection manager where all the present columns from the table are exported as NVARCHARs. My understanding was that the Chinese/Singaporean names would blend seamlessly with NVARCHARs in place. But, they get garbled when pushed to the CSV.
Here is the connection manager setup
There are a lot of suggestions of fixing this by copying/pasting to a notepad file and changing the formatting... But I cant do that since the file is generated using a schedules SSIS package. How can I tweak the process to fix the issue?

Hello guys,
here is my issue.
I created a ssis package which exports the data from oledb source to flat file (csv format). For this i have OLEDB source and Flat File as destination. I generate the file and filename dynamically with the column names in the first row. So if the dynamically generated file name already exists , then i want to append the data in the same existing file. But I dont want to append the column names again. I just want to append the rows to the existing rows.
so lets say first time i generate a file called File1_3132008.csv.
Col1, Col2
1,2
3,4
After some days if my ssis package generates the same file name i.e. File1_3132008.csv, this time i just want to append the rows to the existing file. So the file should look like this-
Col1, Col21,23,45,67,8
But instead my file looks like this if i set Overwrite propery to false
Col1,Col2
1,2
3,4
Col1,Col2
5,6
7,8
Can anyone help me to get the file as shown in the highlighed
Any help would be appreciated .
Thanks

I work in a big project and we will begin in using reporting services as the base technique for reports and I will be responsible for this part. but I have a problem I will discuss in the following:
Currently: We use currently devexpress reports and we have 2 languages(Arabic and English). the data in tables saved in two ways (Arabic and English). when the end user change the language of the web site the report data language changed when run it.
Example:
we have table with (ID, NAME_AR, NAME_EN, JobTitle_AR, JobTitle_EN). designed report will display(ID, NAME_EN, JobTitle_EN) . but the end user change the language of the system the report will
dispaly(ID, NAME_AR, JobTitle_AR)
Hint:this done pragmatically
how to do this in reporting services.

I have an excel file which contains lots of sheets. Some of them are named as DW-<day>-<month> (for e.g; DW-1-July). Like this I have sheets for the whole month. I have other sheets too with a different name. I would like to import data from these sheets only (DW ones). Upon my research I have found that this can be achieved via For Each Loop Container (I guess!).
Post data import, I have a set of T-SQL query that I plan to execute via Execute SQL Task.

I have a data flow that consists of
OLE DB source which calls a stored proc that returns a result set
data conversion
Excel destination
I am in design mode in Business Intelligence studio. My excel destination (with an Excel Connection) shows no sheet name though I have an execute SQL task before the data flow to create the excel table called SHEET1. Needless to say, there are no output columns visible to do any mappings. I did go to the ExcelConnection to set the OpenRowset Property to SHEET1 but it seems to have no effect.
I can do the export in SQL Server Management studio and that works fine, but it is basic and does not meet my requirements. I have to customize the package to allow dynamic Excel filenames based on account names and have to split my result set into multiple excel sheets because excel 2003 has a max of 65536 rows per sheet. Also when I use the export wizard, I have the source as a table and eventually the source has to be a stored proc with input parms.
What am I missing or doing wrong? Thanks in advance

Hi all,
Till now all the reports for our application was created in Reporting Services 2005 with SQL Server Database(OLTP) stored procedures.
Most of the reports take 10 to 15 report Parameters and all are multi valued.
Now because of the slow response time,we have decided to use OLAP cubes data source. We have created the OLAP cube in Microsoft Analysis Services.
Can someone tell me how to use the report parameters to query the Cube.
Any links,books for reference would be of great help..
Thanks,
