SQL Express With Advanced Services - What Reporting Features Does It Have?
Mar 14, 2006
I work for an ISV, and some of our customers use SQL Server, others use SQL Server Express. I need to develop some reports, so I was happy to read that SQL Express with Advanced Services would have some (limited?) Reporting Services available. Unfortunately, the sign-up period to beta test appears to be over, and so I am left wondering exactly what functions will be available. Is there anyone out there who has played around with the beta version reporting functions?

I am looking to find more information regarding advanced filtering/report parameters available in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. From what I can see, the user can set values for each report parameter and the query defaults to "where x = (param 1) and y = (param 2)" etc. Is there a way that a user can pick parameters that structure a more complex where clause? For example, say I want to filter by all clients enrolled in all of these 3 service programs and have a dog or clients not enrolled in one of the following 3 care programs or clients who live in one of the following cities? So it would be like this:
where (((sp = 1 and sp = 2 and sp = 3) and animal = dog) or ((cp not in (1, 2, 3)) or city in (a, b, c, d)))
In addition, I am looking for more information regarding programmatic capabilities in Reporting Services. Can anyone point me to a good place for this information? I would like to know whether we could structure part of a query in VB.NET code and then pass this query to Reporting Services to join with the basic report query. Also, I would like to know Reporting Services' capability to interact with stored procedures.
In addition, is Reporting Services more for internal business reporting, or do companies add it onto their existing software package to sell to external customers? Does Reporting Services allow one report to be created, and then users (our customers) on different servers who use different databases to run the report by giving Reporting Services their credentials (database, SQL Server login, etc)?
Basically, I have just been following the tutorials on Microsoft's site, but they are all pretty basic so I haven't gotten a good feel for whether this product is good for advanced reporting needs.
Thanks!

Hi, all experts here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
As we know the limited features on SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services, but we can build advanced features for it with coding on it. Would please any experts shed me any light on it in a summary like what advanced features could be added with coding on SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services?
Thanks a lot in advance for your kind help and advices. And I am looking forward to hearing from you.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,

My machine environment is as follows:
- Windows Server 2003 Standard with SP1
- IIS 6.0 with some "classic ASP" applications running under it (not ASP.NET)
- SQL Server 2000 Client (Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer etc)
- .NET Framework Runtime 1.1 & 2.0
- Visual Studio.NET 2003 & 2005
I've never installed (or even trusted) any beta/CTP version of either Visual Studio or SQL 2005 (or any other MS trial products for that matter) on my machine.
Initially I installed SQL 2005 Express, and then the RTM version of SQL Management Studio Express.
Later i found this "SQL 2005 Express with Advanced Features" download, and figured that this must be a roll-up of all those features (and then some), so i removed all the old SQL 2005 components and installed this SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE.
I did this twice: the first time with Reporting Services; then removed the whole thing due to errors to be described below; the second time without RS.
The installation process itself is relatively painless, but after it's completed, whenever I open an ASP page from the local IIS server, dozens of warning messages like this would show up in the eventlog:
1.

I can use the Management Studio Express to create a database and tables, but having tons of errors flooding my eventlog is still a serious problem.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
By the way, I think the total experience with SQL 2005 installation is far worse than SQL 2000, which is a very mature product. It seems that SQL 2005 was rushed out of the door to meet some deadlines so quality was seriously comprised as a result. Sending out a service pack less than 6 months after the RTM release is a testament to this conclusion, right?

Hi,
I'm trying to install SQL Express 2005 with Reporting Services using Install Shield 11.5. The command line parameters which i am using is:
/qn ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,RS_Server,RS_Web_Interface,Client_Components SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=<password> DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 RSCONFIGURATION=Default RSSQLLOCAL=1 AUTOSTART=1
It installs the SQL Server and Reporting Services. It configures (creates Virtual Directories for report server and database) but it is not initializing the Report Server.
Having done the installation when i check the Report Server Status it was running and everything seems to be OK except it wasn't initialized.
Any idea??
Thanks,
Moby.

I'm on Windows XP and recently downloaded Sql Server Express Advanced edition from http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/
I also downloaded the Toolkit but it won't install--says the services are already installed. However, I can't find the Business Intelligence link and don't see any Reporting buttons or menu items in Sql Server Express. I'm trying to learn T-SQL and Reporting Services but am frustrated. I've uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled and still nothing. I'm even listening to the MS videos on SQL Server Express--Reporting Services but what they tell to download and install is what I've done--but no luck. Help!!!

When the dialog box appeared indicating file couldn't found, there was no option to look elsewhere for it the only option was retry or cancel which after 5 or 6 retries I cancelled. Everything else appears to have installed correctly for this instance.
Also earlier attempts to install have left services for named instances that I cannot install to such as SQLEXPRESS , SQLEXPRESS1 and CURRIEREXPRESS, I long ago had a beta version installed and have attempted numerous methods to completely wipe these out using the uninstallbetas tool from Microsoft as well as a number of suggestions from some posts.
Please help - The most significant reason I'm installing this is to practice creating SQL Reporting Service reports

Hi,
Since I am new to DTSs therefore currently I am making my DTSs in a manner where there probably is a room for improvement e.g. When I have to Import data from one server to another I use the Import feature and then I go through all the steps of the wizard (at the end of which I get the option to save my DTS)....
In the DTS "design window" there are many options under the TASK menu option and is there a url from where I can learn how to use these options (under TASK i.e. File Transfer Protocaol task, ActiveX Script Task, Transform Data Task, etc. etc.).
Maybe if I know how to use these options, I might be able to write my DTS in better and flexible manner...
Hope my posts is making some sense????
Thanks

Hi. I'm trying to get full-text search working on my SQL 2005 Express with Advanced Services and am having problems. I thought that I installed it correctly, and when I look in the services running, I see it SQL Server Fulltext Search(MSSQLSERVER). Also note that I have SQL Server 2005 Standard installed on this same laptop. I don't know if that Full text Search applies to the Standard, Express or both.
What I do see is that if I connect to the database engine named <mylaptop>, I can see the version is 9.0.1399 and I can see the check box to enable full-text indexing in a particular databases properties. When I run SELECT FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY('IsFullTextInstalled'), I get a 1.
However, when I connect to the engine name <mylaptop>SQLExpress, I se the version is 9.0.3042, and I don't see the same check-box to enable full-text indexing. When I run SELECT FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY('IsFullTextInstalled'), I get a 0.
I've never tried this before so I know I'm probably missing something basic. But, I have searched quite a bit and not found my answer. So, I'm looking to you for help.
Thanks in advance.
John.

Hello,
I know the basics of DTSs and have been using them for a while. Now I REALLY want to learn the advanced concepts related to DTS's e.g.
How to make use of the "Inner Package Global Variables" Tab (which is visible in the DTS Designer "window")
How to make use of the "Outer Package Global Variables" Tab (which is visible in the DTS Designer "window")
How to make use of the "Outer Package Global Variables" Tab (which is visible in the menu bar option #4 Designer "window")

Hi
I've recently upgraded from MSDE (SBS 2003 SP1 with .NET 2.0) to SQL Express SP1.
I am trying to enable full text sarching on the Sharepoint instance but whenever I go to Sharepoint central administaton and text sarching it reports that the SQL server installed does not suport this.
I can't find any documentation on this anywhere.
Admidatley the machine is a domain controller and I know this isn't recommended but surely this shouldn't stop this from working?
All components where selected when installing SQLExpress and I recieved no errors.
Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many kind thanks

Hi Guys,
Need some advice on the free SQL Express with Advanced Services provided.
I plan to develop a small departmental multi-user applications with 5 to 6 simultaneous users using the free SQL Express with Advanced Services with VB.net and stored procedures on a local area network.
Is it a good choice to use this free SQL Express with Advanced Services or is it more advisable to purchase a standard version ?
Appreciate if someone could help me to address this issue?
One more thing, can i install the free SQL Express with Advanced Services on a normal desktop with Windows XP SP 2 and utilize it as a server or do i need a proper server with Windows 2003?
Thanks and Regards,
Jansen

Folks, Today I saw that an upgraded(?) version of SQL Server express was available. Since it is supposed to have the ability to generate a script to put a database on a hosted server I decided to get it. Bad decision. I uninstalled my previous version of SSE. and attempted to install the SP2 version with Advanced Services. After three installs I finally got the server to start. Now I can not log onto it using Management Studio Express. I know the server is running because I can see it in the task manager and I can open one database used with an ASP.NET web site through Visual Studio. Can you provide any suggestions on how to find my server or server instances through Management Studio? Do I need to remove all sql server related items and do a complete reinstall? I can see the server in the Configuration Manager and in the Surface configuration manager. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I have spent way too much time on this.Thanks

Our new version of a VB.net 2005 program uses
Install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
While upgrading a client over PCAnywhere in another state, I inadvertantly installed
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services
I have had an absolute nightmare with SQL 2005 uninstalling it from a laptop on my desk, so you can understand why I don't want to try uninstalling the Advanced Services version on a computer over PCAnywhere.
However, the remote computer does not have IIS on it, which prompts a warning form Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services.
So, the simple question is, if the program works Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition then I assume it will work with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services, since it doesn't use any advance services.
Please advise.

I'm just running the install directly from the executable thats downloaded from the microsoft site and get the following warning which then causes the install to exit (gracefully).
Is this something that needs to be set before installing? I can't find any documentation on it.

Hello, I am having a difficult time with a complicated task. I have developed numerous SSRS reports for my application and want to deploy these reports with my application. The application uses SQL Express Edition with Advanced Services. I have written an installer to automate this process, but my problem is getting the SSRS reports that I developed on my server incorporated into the ReportServer database created during the install of SQL Express Edition with Advanced Services. I have read numerous good posts and articles regarding the rsconfig.exe and rskeymgmt.exe utilities, but I am having problems. The main problem seems to be dealing with the encryption key. I have done a restore of the ReportServer database using a backup of the ReportServer database I used to develop my SSRS reports. This worked well with the exception that I can't seem to get past an error message stating that reportiong services has not been initialized. Keep in mind, I need an automated way to do this. Anyway, I have tried using rskeymgmt to restore a backed up copy of the encryption file that I took from the server where I developed the reports. I get an error message that scale-out deployment is not supported in this version or something like that. I can't delete the encrypted data because then the connection information for my shared data source is deleted also. Again, please keep in mind I need all of this to occur behind the scenes during an install without end-user intervention.
Anyways, sorry for such a long post. I would appreciate any help anyone may be able to provide.

I've been using SQL Server 2005 Std. for my development work on a laptop w/ 2 GHz Celeron and 768 Mb RAM. Now that Express Edition has Reporting Services and Full-Text Search, would I be wise to just use it instead? I actually have both on my machine since Express Edition installed with VS 2005 Standard. Also, if I uninstall SQL Server 2005 Std. what will I lose? Thanks in advance.

I recently downloaded and attempted to install this express edition. I currently have the SQL Server Standard 2005 installed on my cpu but is dedicated to the Business Manger for my Outlook 2007. Normally I suppose this is not an issue but the edition does not have the reporting feature, hence the reason for downloading this new edition. My system meets all required specs but when I get to the last step of configuration, I get an error message. The error message occurs while configuring the OWC11 and Reporting. After the rest is configured it then tells me that the program failed to install.I am running Microsoft Office 2007 with exception of Access, which is ver. 2000. I have all programs running in compatibiltiy mode since others in the office are still running Office 2000. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Error 1706. Setup cannot find the required files. Check your connection to the network or CD-Rom drive. For other potential solutions to this problem, see C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice 111033SETUP.CHM.
