SQL Report Generation
Jul 20, 2005
Hello
For my client, I need to generate reports from the information stored
in the database. The client has fixed format forms (on paper e.g. US
Customs forms etc).
Will I need to redesign the forms in the application and then show the
information?
Another approach is to scan the forms as image and print the
information on top of that image, so when it is printed , the
information will be displayed at the right places.
Is there any other way? How is the reporting done if the forms are
pre-defined and the information is stored in a database
Thanks for your input

Hello all,
Say I have a report that is running for a long time and I want to cancel it.
Is there a way to cancel the report generation once we submit the Report Generation Button? If I close my Browser, Am I closing my session in the server side? If server is still churning out the old report and I open another browser to request the same report, I might easily crash the server if the requests for the same report keep growing?
How do I handle or how does SSRs handle this?
Thanks in advance to you all experts..

Is there any way to change the image "Report is being generated" to something else or at least change the location of it. I have a report that is very long and our users have to scroll down to see that. They think the report is frozen when in all reality it is still generating. It is postioning in the center of the page and I want it to position at the top.

I have developed several reports with selectable parameters. When the report is first requested three stored procedures are triggered and return the parameters (+2 min), following parameters being returned the default report is returned (+3 min), this time is unacceptable. Is there anything I can do to speed up the report generation? Any help here is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
We need to generate the reports in a file share location and notify the Users about the location. Since the subscriptions support either File share or Email notification, we have configured file share mode in our subscriptions.
We tried writing a custom C# component to send emails to the Users but getting the status of reports generation is difficult.
Is there a way to notify the users after generating the reports in a file share?

Just by using SQL Server 2000, what's the best way to run a stored procedure outputing the results to an excel sheet? I don't have Crystal Reports or any other 3rd party reporting tool to help me, a restriction of our client.
Found this http://searchsqlserver.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid87_gci1057989,00.html sp_write2Excel. Would this be the best way? Any other methods? The SQL server does not have MS Office so I think I need to ouput to a csv file.

I'm attempting to generate a model for our manufacturing database in Report Server. I can create the Data Source, but when I attempt to generate the model, I get several errors in the following format ...
More than one item in the Entity 'CUST ADDRESS' has the name 'COUNTRY'. Item names must be unique among immediate siblings. (DuplicateItemName) Get Online Help
More than one Field in the Entity 'CUST ADDRESS' has the name 'COUNTRY'. Field names must be unique within an Entity. (DuplicateFieldName) Get Online Help
There are several pairs of similar error messages (DuplicateItemName and DuplicateFieldName) listed.
The tables (i.e. CUST_ADDRESS) do contain the column name (i.e. COUNTRY) but are otherwise unremarkable.
Clicking the "Get Online Help" link leads to a page with an apology and no useful information.
The database is at Compatibility Level 80, but I am able to generate models for other databases at that level.
I've run DBCC CHECKDB against the database and it returns without errors.
This is on SQL Server 2005, Standard Edition x64 with SP2.
I'm at a loss for what to do next, there doesn't seem to be any documentation for this error available.
Thanks for any insight into this matter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After some additional research, I've discovered that in the problem entities, i.e. "CUST ADDRESS", there is a column named "COUNTRY" and a separate column named "COUNTRY_ID". I tried renaming the COUNTRY_ID column in a test copy of the database and was then able to generate the data model in Reporting Services. The problem appears to be that the model generator is unable to differentiate between a column name "COUNTRY" with one named "COUNTRY_ID".
However, I cannot do this to my production database. Is there any fixes or workarounds in Reporting Services to handle this type of situation?

Hello,
I'm trying to do something simple that has turned out to be a frustrating problem. I have a field in my report that needs to be populated by user input. Based on this user input, I will use the field in a calculation. The simple solution to me, was to create a custom assembly that has a function that uses Console.Write("Input Data") and Console.readline() to assign the input to a string, and then return that string to the report. This works fine in a test console application, but when I copy and paste the code to my custom assembly, it returns #Error to the report. I've debugged, and found that when I hit F10 on Console.Write("test"); it skips right over it, and nothing happens. It also skips over Console.readline(); with nothing happening. This makes me unable to take the user input and set the textbox equal to that value.
Am I doing this completely wrong? Is there something I'm missing, or just not understanding correcly? It seems like reporting services has to have this option. I'd really appreciate some advice. Thanks!

Because of the way in which a specific piece of code is written, I'm bound into using a WHERE clause for a report generation.Each Inspection generates a unique Inspection Number. Any re-inspection created from that inspection is assigned that Inspection Number and appended with ".A", ".B", ".C" and so on.
The problem is this: Each row's Primary Key is the "InspectionId" in "dbo.v_InspectionDetailsReports". I need to return not only the data related to that particular InspectionId, but also the data related to any previous related inspection. For example, if I have a main number of CCS-2012 and three re-inspections, CCS-2012.A, CCS-2012.B and CCS-2012.C, and I report on CCS-2012.B, I need all the data for CCS-2012, CCS-2012.A and CCS-2012.B but NOT CCS-2012.C.
I would prefer to not have to do everything in a WHERE statement, but my hands are a bit tied.
The "SELECT * FROM dbo.v_InspectionDetailsReports WHERE . . ." is already hardcoded (don't ask).
SELECT *
FROM dbo.v_InspectionDetailsReports
WHERE ( RefOnly = 0
OR RefOnly IS NULL
[code]...

Hi,
I have a problem while rendering a report which returns around 5000 rows. At first the server is busy to process the request, when the server is done the rendering client side takes 100% of CPU and never displays the result ("IE is not responding"). It seems that the ReportViewer has trouble to handle the server response.
Do you have any idea why ?
Sébastien.

Lets say for example I have a table named Drier_Lot_Recipients with columns grower_id int, crop_year int, and email_address varchar(100). This table contains users that would like to receive an SSRS report I created on daily basis.
I created the SSRS report and it is deployed on a reporting services server. The name of the report is Drier_Lot_Report.rdl.
I am not sure what would be the best way to go about this. Should I do it all in SSIS or a stored procedure in SQL Server?OR maybe a combination of both.
Do I need to have calls made to the RS.EXE utility? Do I need to setup database mail in SQL Server?We have two SMTP servers.
So the end solution must call the Drier_Lot_Report and pass in two parameters (Grower_id and Crop_Year). The output must be PDF and either have the grower_id included in the output filename OR generic filename

Hi,
I have an issue in generating the report in sql reporting services. I need to display a report in a table format. The datas of the table should be from two different sql tables. I have tried to write a stored procedure that returns two result sets from two different tables. As reporting services takes datas only from the first result set, i tried to write two different stored procedures each displays one result set. Then i have created two datasets with that two different stored procedure. Even then i cannot proceed as i was not able to use two different dataset in a single table because i was setting the datasetname to one dataset, when i try to retrieve the fields from another dataset i was able to retrieve only first and count values. Then i tried using sub reports. As sub reports for a dataregion(table) repeats for every row of the main report i was not able to fetch the correct datas. Atlast i have tried combining the query using join and wrote a single stored procedure. This stored procedure returns a single result set retrieves data from two tables satisfying the conditions. The issue i am facing with this is, the first table has only one row satisfying the condition and the second table has three rows satisfying the same condition, as i am using join query for the three rows returned by the second table the first table datas are getting duplicated for the rest of the rows in the second table. As I found using join query is the only resolution for the output which I need, and also I have to avoid the duplication of the records. Hence let me know for any solutions.
I have shown the sample datas that is duplicating which is indicated as bold. Phonenumber, Attemptdate and calloutcome are from first table and start time and endtime is from second table. As there are three different datas for the second table, first table datas are duplicated
Phone Number
Attempt Date
Call OutCome
Start Time
End Time

Hi,
I have found that in the autogenerated model attributes are missing for those fields that have relations to other tables. At first, it may look reasonable since a user can still get down to the field's value through the relation/related table. However, if the relation's key fields is the only thing the user wants to display, then going down to the related table is an overkill.
I can add an attribute manually and bind it to the key field(s). Is there an option in the autogeneration process to do it automatically? The only post I've found so far suggests to do everything manually (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1152575&SiteID=1). Is this the only way?
Thank you,
Leonid

I have a quick question regarding SQL Server Enterprise Manager. I'm looking at setting up a job to automatically create DDL for a user database. This will be done along with our normal nightly backup routine.
I'm very familiar with using EM to create SQL scripts, but is there anyway to schedule this task? I've considered DTS and some type of scheduled package, but can't seem to find anything similar. I'm thinking I may need a custom task.
Could someone please shed some light on the subject? If not from within EM, how about any third party tools? FYI - I already own the Embarcadero suite and am trying it out wwith that.
Thank You.

Server:
SQL 2005 SP2 on Win 2003 Ent. SP1
A 3rd part app is requiring that I create a credential, whick in turn requires an SMK be set. When I try to create the credential, I get an error message indicating a decryption error. When I run the alter command to regenerate the key (without force) it throws an error indicating the key cannot be decrypted. According to a KB article I found, this may indicate that a key has never been generated.
My question is, I have a number of production databases in this instance, including SQL Reporting Services. Except for the SRS DB's, all other user db's are simple db's that don't use encryption. If I run the Force command to generate the key, am I going to break anything? I'm really concerned about report servioces.
Thanks.

The information in the database for the report is as follows
FileName : Test1
FileExtn : True
Path = \ram\C$Reports
Render_Format = PDF
Username = Administrator
Password = password
Writemode = Overwrite
All the fields are varchar(50) in size.

Hi guys,Apologies Simon for not making it clearer last time. What i am doing isreading a table from the SQL Server 2000 database and using:SQLDataSet.WriteXml(strFileName, XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema);to write to the DataSet. But I realised that when I do that the XML isgenerated correctly, the only error being that<xs:element name="Table"> comes in as the tablename instead of theactual table name.Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Hi, I'm trying to use the SK script from Donald Farmers book but the code isn't accepted
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper
Public Class ScriptMain
Inherits UserComponent
Dim CurrentKey As Integer
Public Overrides Sub PreExecute()
CurrentKey = CInt(Me.Variables.FILCodesSK)
End Sub
Public Overrides Sub Input_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
CurrentKey += 1
Row.SurrogateKey = CurrentKey
End Sub
End Class
There is a problem with the use of the overrides on the Input_ProcessInputRow sub should this be renamed?

Hi,
I am working with SQL Server 2005 Reporting Service from few days, though I am
not expert, for some reason I have to run on field without having sound
knowledge of RDL, but need your help, gys. I am using SQL Server Business
Intelligence Development Studio to design report.
Here is the procedure of my work to populate a RDL report
I used a stored procedure for the DataSet of my RDL
Then I drag and drop necessary field to my report layout.
Put required parameters to preview tab and then run report.
This is quite simple, I didn't face any problem with this process, even though
the process may not correct, but working perfect. My problem is
when the stored procedure returns multiple result set. The data tab only
shows the first result set though the SP returns multiple result set, I have
run the SP in the Query Analyzer. I don't want change my stored procedure.
And please give me some suggestions about the best procedure
to develop RDL report in real life.
Please reply me ASAP, it€™s very urgent.
Thank youTareqe

Does anyone know an efficient method for generating a sequence number in the following form?
Starting with 2 columns
1 2
----
A X
A Y
B X
B Y
B Z
C X
I want to then generate a third column as follows:
1 2 3
-------
A X 1
A Y 2
B X 1
B Y 2
B Z 3
C X 1
The purpose being so that I can easily identify the previous row within a Column1 group. So given column1=A and column2=Y I know that the previous row is Column3 - 1 where column1 = A. Therefore I will be able to join to the previous result of any row within any group quickly for future calculations.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi,
I have an error table that is to be updated by more than one package.
There is a sequence number generated in the error table. It is generated by using the max value of the previous data present in the table.
When more than one package runs parallely, conflict occurs in generating the sequence number.
How can this be handled?

Hi.I have a database I need to supply something (I'm assuming a t-sql script..maybe something else is better) to update customer tables with.The operations include mostly changing varchar lengths, though a couple ofcolumns were renamed.I'd like to maybe figure out how to get Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzerto generate the scripts.I can't just send alter table scripts because I'm involving all sorts ofconstraints that have to be disabled/or dropped, the alter made, then havethem enabled/ or re-created.Basically I'm hoping to get the tools to do the rather large amount of workfor me. I'm targetting sql server 2000.Can someone make a knowledgeable suggestion?RegardsJeff Kish
