Reporting Services :: Setting Up A Visual Studio
Jun 29, 2015
Windows 7.We are preparing to introduce some of our folks to designing reports in SQL Server Reporting Service (SSrS). I want to do some preliminary testing on my laptop. I believe we should use Visual Studio (free version), the Business Intelligence tools for VS, and a local instance of SQL Server. I want to be able to install a sample database in the local instance of SQL Server and be able to look at the sample database's table structure.
To set up a local test environment, should I use VS, Business Intelligence tools for VS, and a local instance of SQL Server? Or is there some other set of tools I should use?What version of VS should I use (I saw VS Community 2015 RC is available)?Where might I get a robust sample database from which I can create SSrS Reports to test?What tool can I use to look at a local instance of SQL Server? These "express" versions don't seem to come with SQL Server Management Studio.

Do I need to load Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2005.NET to work with the .rdl reports. I have VS 2005 loaded and I can't access my reports I created before my hard drive died...

microsoft.reportviewer.design for Version 12 (2014) The redistributable package is just that, and does not include this dll So Visual Studio cannot create a V12 object.
The workaround is to use V11 and patch the inserted code.
Where can we download the design dll?

I'm trying to deploy a report to Reporting Services, but I've found that there's a behaviour difference Visual Studio and Reporting Services with the Matrix control for the subtotals.
For the background color for the "textbox" on the cells, I've used the folowing expression:
=Iif(Fields!ID__vs_YAGO.Value < 1, "Red"
,Iif(Fields!ID__vs_YAGO.Value < 1.02, "Yellow"
,"GreenYellow"))
The individual cells alternate colors, based on the value in the cell. In Visual Studio, the Subtotal cells also alternate colors (which is correct). But when the report is deployed to Reporting Services, The Subtotal cells have a transparent background. (Incorrect).
If I set the same expression into the background setting for the Subtotal cells, the expression is evaluated once for the entire row and the entire row has the same color (different Subtotal lines will alternate). This is the same in both Visual Studio and Reporting Services.
I'm using SP2, 2005 (32 bit for Reporting Services). To ensure full compatibility, I've editted / deployed the report all on the same machine.
Does anyone know of this problem and how to resolve it?
Additional: In testing the various output formats, it seems to be a bug in the HTML rendering engine. PDF amd TIFF work fine. I believe Excel export uses either part of the HTML rendering engine or pieces of the same code base.
P.S. I'm detecting other reporting differences between Visual Studio and Reporting Services, such as how "null key records" (from Analysis Services) are handled in groups. Is there a compatibility list published somewhere?

Hello.
I am having problems with a couple of queries in the Development Studio (Reporting Services 205). I am working on a report that runs a lot of functions so I expect it to be slow. But it times out in 30 seconds.
Error Message: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
The report finishes when clicking on the preview tab but not when on the data tab. If finishes fine when deployed as well. Is there a way to increase the amount of time the query designer in Visual Studio takes to time out on a query?
I have tried setting the Connect Timeout=60 on the Data Source but it seems to be overridden by a setting in Visual Studio 2005.
Thanks much for any help.

I have an assignment where I am asked to create a test report with Cascaded parameters in a report for use on an Intranet. Found a good guide on a site named slqtips. The only problem is, that when I have created my data source, my data sets and my queries, I should go to the window "Report parameter properties", for specifing the data which should be included in the choices in the report, and I cannot find it! As a matter of fact the milieu I work in, Report designer in Visual Basic Studio Shell 2013, on a MS SQL 2012 Server, looks different in many way compared to the guide. It actually also differs from the Pictures in the book "Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services" I also try to use for the purpose.Am I perhaps working in the wrong place, or what can the problem be? Is this Visual basic 2013 Window some kind of upgrade which is different from the original version where you used to work with Report designer?

When creating a report using reporting Services with a cube as a datasource, visual studio 2005 hangs. I have applied SP1 to visual studio.net 2005 .
This is the query generated by query designer in reporting services. When I try to drag and drop another dimension to slice it by , visual studio hangs.
The fact table has just 10,000 records. Are the number of dimensions used to slice the cube too many? How do I optimize this query?

Hello,
I've seen this question floating around, but I have not been able to find a definitive answer.
Can this be done, and if so, what do I need to install into Visual Studio 2003?
Thank you.

Hi,
I'm still quite a beginner with the Report Designer and now I have faced a problem. My goal is to make a reports refresh each time it is loaded. I know that this can be done by using rs:clearsession = true-method but in order this to work, it should be added to each link. There are a lots of links in the reports we are using and therefore it would be more practical to find another way to refresh the report on page load. Is there any way to do this with some kind of code attached to each report? I'm using Visual Studio 2003 and my Reporting services 2000.

I have written a report visual studio. The report has 10 multi-value parameters that pull data from their individual data sets within the reports. When running the report from within Visual Studio it renders fine. There are no errors reported, only a warning related to a pathname I have use to retrieve image data and display on the report.Deployment of the report is error free.When I view the report I briefly get the "Loading" splash window, but then nothing. None of the headers or static text is displayed. The results window is blank.
The report defaults all the parameter values. In trying to debug the issue I have found by reducing the number of parameter values the report will render. Once I have all the values added, the report does nothing.Below is the query being used for the report. The where clause in the query shows the parameters being used and the syntax.We are running on Windows Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2008 R2.

I am trying to import Access reports using Visual Studio 2005 and Access 2007. SQL Server 2005 with Reporting Services is also installed. I select Reports in the Solution Explorer and then Import Reports... Microsoft Access and browse to my Access database. After I select the database I see it open briefly as if it is trying to import the reports but then Access quickly closes and a error pops up: "You already have the database open." I have checked and double checked and the database is not open. I have even tried several different databases and the same errror occurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?

I have implemented SQL Server 2005 Developer Version at Windows XP Home. I'm working on localhost.
I want to do an assoziation analysis and creating data source and data source view is successful. But when the data mining wizard comes to the point where to choose the data mining algorithm, the visual studio crashes- the application is not responding. No error code is given, so I don't know where to start.
Analysis Server is running and the connection to the data source is made.
Hope someone can give me a hint.

Hi all
I have some performance issues when developing Integration Service Package ...
It is very very slow for example when I try to add new connection in

On another pc in the same environment it works ok.
In the past I have doing a lot of SSIS Packages ... Is there any cache to empty ??

Greetings,
I am using Visual Studio 2005 SP1, SQL Server Developers Edition, Both installed recently and updated completely on an XP SP2 workstation (again all updates installed, the necessary ones at least) The issue I am having is when I try to load a solution for Integration services an error message box appears with the following:
An error prevented the view from loading. (Microsoft Visual Studio)
===================================
The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) (System.Windows.Forms)
This issue was of course occurring before the reinstall of both Visual Studio and SQL Server DE. The issue also extends to creating new projects, in which I am not able to...so the frustration is a little high at the moment, any help would be great...

I am not sure if this is possible or not, but I have to at least ask.
I have a SQL Reporting Services project that has a QA server version and then a Production server version. So when requested changes are made to the reports, I make the changes in Visual Studio and then push to QA. After the changes have been tested and approved, I then push the changes to the Production server.
I have come across an issue, where requested changes were made in Visual Studio (a lot of changes), and pushed to QA. The users now have changed their minds and they want instead to stay with what is in production. So, I am looking for a way to recover the report file on the production web server, bring it back into my visual studio project to replace the report that I had changed.
Is this possible, or will I have to start over and step one and reverse the changes in Visual Studio.
Let me know.
Thank you,
T.J.

I have all this gray space at the top of my tasks. When I <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Left-click> to select all of my tasks and then try sliding it up, it creates even more gray space and actually moves it down. If instead when I <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Left-click> and then <Ctrl>+<Arrow-up> it doesn't move it. Is there any easy way to eliminate all this gray space at the top?

I have a general question regarding setup. We have a small to medium size company and our reports will need to be accessed over the web/remotely. It seems to me that it would not be a good idea to have reporting services, the database, etc., all on the same server. Correct?
Is it more secure to have a web server running IIS installed with reporting services and then a separate box with the database? If so, is web server in the DMZ and the database server on the local domain or standalone? Also, does having the reporting services server separated in this way from the database create any access issues in terms of problems with performing certain types of reporting functions, etc? It seems like I read something about that a short time ago.
Would anyone care to comment on this setup issue/considerations?
Thanks for your thoughts.

I've used the Balanced Data Distributor with Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2012 successfully. I've now installed BIDS 2013 and I'm trying to get the Balanced Data Distributor to appear again in the SSIS Toolbox.
I've installed the x86 and x64 version and it won't appear. I've tried the new version which is supposed to have a fix for some SQL Server 2008 issues but I get the message:
The installation is not successful. Check the following prerequisites: 1. Either Integration Services or BIDS has to be installed. 2. The version of these components has to be either SQL Server 2008 SP2 (or future SPs) or SQL Server 2008 R2 (or future SPs).
That seems this version only works for SQL Server 2008.

I've built an SSIS package in SSDT 2014. The package was running successfully
When I close and open the package it hangs on validation of single task out of all.
OLEDB DESTINATION Task
I have tried several times to close the SSDT and open but facing same issue.
These seems like bugs in SSIS/SSDT. What would cause the relocation of some script code to hang the validation process like this?
