Does anyone have any good examples or tutorials on how to use the C# Reports for the databases. Also what is the difference from a normal Microsoft Report or Crystal Report. I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional if that helps or changes anything. I am trying to use these to view the report to created by a C# application that i ahave created.
Thanks

Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

Hi Friends,
Could I migrate the reports which are developed on SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. If Yes then How ...
Could anyone explain me. How it works.
Thanks

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,

Is there a way to copy reports from other users "My reports" folder? I am logging onto the management studio reporting services using an administrative account and I am able to view the reports from all users' "My Reports" folder. But I am not able to export them as an rdl file. I am able to export reports from other common folders, but not from the "My Reports" folder.
The reason I need to do this is some of the users have created some reports in one environment and the reports are available in their respective "My Reports" folder. I need to move these reports to their corresponding "My Reports" folder in another environment.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
I am generating a report based on certain criterias. Each task may report something. As of now I have created a report table and inserting data from each task into that.
At final stage I order the records and write to a txt file.The table I am using to insert is present in one of the database I'm using.
Is there any way I can store it a common repository [ I have to insert recs from diff dataflow task ]. At final stage group and sort it. Load into a text file?
Any Ideas?
Hi. I am trying to create a report that requires multiple select statements and I wish the results to be returned as one 'table'. The jist of what I am trying to do is as follows.
I am creating a report for a call centre. This report is to display results for the following columns in table format:
COLUMN A) Count of calls raised during this reporting period,
COLUMN B) Count of calls open from the previous reporting period,
COLUMN C) Count of calls worked on during this reporting period,
COLUMN D) Count of calls closed during this reporting period.
These counts are all displayed by the severity of the call e.g. the rows will be titled 1 to 5. Each column is a select statement in itself, pulling data from various tables.
I have managed to get the results I desire when I return results from three queries (in the example below, REPORT 2, this is query A, query B and query D).
REPORT 1
SELECT COALESCE (A.severity, B.severity, D.severity) AS Severity,
ISNULL(A.QUERYA, 0) AS [Calls Raised during this Reporting Period],
ISNULL(B.QUERYB, 0) AS [Calls Open from Previous Reporting Period],
ISNULL(D.QUERYD, 0) AS [Calls Closed During this Reporting Period]
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT severity, COUNT(*) AS [QUERYA]
FROM dbo.opencall
WHERE <WHERE CLAUSE A>
GROUP BY severity) A FULL OUTER JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT severity, COUNT(*) AS [QUERYB]
FROM dbo.opencall
WHERE <WHERE CLAUSE B>
GROUP BY severity) B ON A.severity = B.severity FULL OUTER JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT severity, COUNT(*) AS [QUERYD]
FROM dbo.opencall
WHERE <WHERE CLAUSE D>
GROUP BY severity) D ON A.severity = D.severity
ORDER BY COALESCE (A.severity, B.severity, D.severity)
A
B
D
Severity

Calls Open from Previous Reporting Period
Calls Closed During this Reporting Period

However, when I join a 4th query to the above, query C (as in REPORT 2, below) I get repeated rows.
REPORT 2
SELECT COALESCE (A.severity, B.severity, C.severity, D.severity) AS Severity,
ISNULL(A.QUERYA, 0) AS [Calls Raised during this Reporting Period],
ISNULL(B.QUERYB, 0) AS [Calls Open from Previous Reporting Period],
ISNULL(C.QUERYC, 0) AS [Calls Worked on During this Reporting Period],
ISNULL(D.QUERYD, 0) AS [Calls Closed During this Reporting Period]

FROM dbo.opencall
WHERE <WHERE CLAUSE C>
GROUP BY severity) C ON B.severity = C.severity FULL OUTER JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT severity, COUNT(*) AS [QUERYD]

WHERE <WHERE CLAUSE D>
GROUP BY severity) D ON A.severity = D.severity

Hi,
Does Anyone has any idea that how do we extract the log reports that are generated whenever we run a package onto a text file , i mean the whole report rather than just a single message.
Im trying to create some reports using C# express and SQL Server Express with additional Tools.
I cant seem to find any of the tool in C#. I expected the reportviewer control to be in my toolbox but it isn't.
Can the express version not perform reporting services?
I have some reports whcih contain sub reports
My users when they export these reports in to excel, sub reports never get exported "There is a Sub Report error" in that space.
I did figure out a workaround for this issue. They can always export the report into WebArchive format and open it before they save the report, once opened in web archive format, give a right click to export into in Excel, this works great but as always this is not a permanat fix
Or does anyone have a better workaround to export an report into excel which has subreports ?
I have a number of reports that can be somewhat wide. When viewing some of them in the report manager, using IE6, the right side of the report gets cut off. There are no horizontal scroll bars or anything. If I just refresh the page from the toolbar, my report displays how it should.
Has anyone had this problem, or have a solution so that I don't have to refresh my page every time?
Thanks,
Erik

A long shot but someone may have experienced same problem. We are using Crystal Info to run reports against a SQL 7 database. Reports that usually take 1 or 2 minutes to run are taking up to 15 minutes to run. The database is fine ie you run the query through the query analyser and it runs in 1 or 2 minutes. Any ideas... I've spoken to Seagate but not making much progress.
Thanks in advance..
I am trying to run a report off a crosstab query. The report calls for columns A - F, which are returned from the crosstab query. The only problem is that at times some of the columns are not returned by the query because there is no data associated with them. The report asks for column X, and no such columns exists in the query result; thus, an error is generated. My question is: how do I deal with this problem? I would like to avoid having to build the report from scratch. Is there some way that at runtime I could programatically tell the report to ignore these fields?

I have built an ADP for an internal project. The rpoblem I'm having is that one computer is not displaying reports. No matter who the user is it will not show the reports. I thought it might be a software issue/conflict, so I changed out the hardrive and started with a clean OS with only MS Office installed on it. I have also made sure that the users have access rights to SQL along with all sprocs used in the reports. But I'm still having the same problem. There are four other computers in the office that use the application and all work fine. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions I would be glad to hear them.
