Saving A Reporting Services Report From A Command Line Call
Oct 15, 2007
I've created some reports in Reporting Services 2003 and would like to call them up from a .Net 2003 windows based application. I'm passing one parameter to the report and would like to be able to automatically call the Save As... command and provide a path and name to save the file. I wnat to render the report as a PDf file and save it in that format as well. I can generate the name of the file on the fly using the input parameter value.
What I need is a sample of how to instantiate a reporting services object in .Net 2003 and the commands to execute the Save As function after the report has been rendered.
I am trying to push the install for ReportBuilder 3.0 and am having an issue with the REPORTSERVERURL option for installing via command line.I have a batch file that works fine, however when I launch the app it does not have a report server configured. I have verified I can connect to my report server if I enter it manually.
I want to repeat line on each page of report on PDF while using 2 columns on report. The problem is that if i use table border it will also repeat after second table. i want a line between two tables.
In one of my SSIS package (which connect to DB2) i save the DB2 username and password in SSIS packge itself by using option "EncryptAllWithPassword". When I try to run the packge using dtexecui.exe it works perfectly fine. It prompts me for package password and then run fine.
Now I am trying to run it using command line dtxece.exe and i get fooolwoing error. Please suggest and help!!! DTExec.exe /FILE C:pkgDB2Load.dtsx /CONFIGFILE C:ConfigpkgConfigMaster.dtsConfig /Decrypt mypassword /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EWCDI

I typically use Report Designer, but I have a new project requiring Report Builder 3.0. In Report Designer (BIDS), I can take more complex expressions (ie SWITCH with 5 or 6 options), and put each pairing on a new line to be able to better read the code.
In the Expression Editor in Report Builder, pressing the ENTER key on my keyboard closes the Expression dialog box and saves the changes.
Is there any way to add line returns in the code to make it more readable? The expression editor wraps when it runs out of room, but this doesn't make it more readable, in some cases, it wraps in the middle of a field name, making it even less readable.
I am displaying the red line in the beginning of the current week column in the matrix table. But for few resources the red line is missing. For Example in below screenshot, refer the 'Adrian Larkin' resource. Here is the SSRS report border expression which is comparing the [TimeByDay] with the current Week First Monday Date to display the red bar -
Here is the dataset result set. If you refer the column [TimeByDay], it has no record for the date 11/05/2015 for the Adrian resource as he has no assignment for the date 11-05-2015.display the red missing line red bar using the expression or any other solution.
I have created web based ssrs report with Report viewer and I am trying to add Command button to print result of report reside in ReportViewer and I have worked with code to generate. Is there any other way to work around without writing function or java script on Extra print button to print ssrs report.

we are running 2014 enterprise. A couple of column headings (even with smaller font) are a little tall, as much as 6 "lines". All headings in the respective matrices are aligned vertically as "bottom". When I save the report to excel, these taller headings get chopped off visually in their excel cell. The cell contains the entire heading. It appears that the second "line" of the heading is the one that is most visible in excel.
How do I get these to be saved so user will see entire heading when opening excel doc? In the first matrix there is a text box directly above the matrix and only one row of column headings. In the second there is a higher column group heading containing month name above the problem headings.
I need the Trend line for the following data in Line chart they are the following data. The following are the graph are my output and i need the trend line for these Key_gap value.
This is the link [URL] ....
I need the same trend line for the Bar-Chart in SSRS 2005.
I am trying to redo an app that I built to gen reoprts from the command line in a specified format using RS 2000 to use RS 2005. However, I am having a problem using rs.exe to render a report. It looks like the rs.Render method no longer exists. It also looks like you can no longer get to these methods from the rs.exe environment.
Is it still possible to render reports using rs.exe? If so, can somebody please provide an example?
Hi there, I am trying to get a report to export to a pdf or xls file at a specific location using a command line action. I got the example for Publishing sample reports to work at the following site: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms160854.aspx. I am trying to modify this example to get it to put a file out to a directory.
The code I am using in my .rss file is:
CODE Public Sub Main()
'setting the credentials to the machine that this application is running on rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
Dim ResultStream() As Byte Dim filename As String = "Test.pdf"
'rendering the report as a pdf ResultStream = ReportExecutionService.Render("http://MyServer/reportserver?/AdventureWorks+Sample+Reports/Company+Sales", "PDF", Nothing, "<DeviceInfo><StreamRoot>/RSWebServiceXS/</StreamRoot></DeviceInfo>", Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, Nothing)
'creating a file to hold the stream Dim stream As FileStream = File.Create("C:whatever" + filename)
'writing the stream to the file stream.Write(ResultStream, 0, ResultStream.Length) stream.Close()
End Sub The command line is:
CODE C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SamplesReporting ServicesScript Sampl es>rs -i ExportRenderTest.rss -s http://dbasql01/reportserver I am getting the error: C:Documents and Settingsdan.evansLocal SettingsTempc6xhwdrx.1.vb(24) : error BC30456: 'Render' is not a member of 'Microsoft.SqlServer.ReportingServices2005.ReportingService2005'.
Has anyone had any experience doing this sort of thing?
My holy grail is to create an ssis package that accepts some arguments (source rs report path, destination path, report parms, destination file format, etc...) that I can use over and over again to manage some automated report distribution.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!!! Thanks, Dan

Hi everyone, I'm very new to SQL and SQL Reporting Services. However I've been given a task.
How do I save multiple reporting services reports onto a predetermined location on a users local pc? Are there tools/applications that can be used to push files onto the users local pc?
The application uses .NET but they've created reports using SQL Reporting Services. The user will select which report they want (out of 2). My task is to figure out how can we save those reports that they have selected onto their pc?
I'm trying to execute a simple VBS file from the Executable command line in the Execute Process Task Editor.
My line is this : cscript.exe "c:convertcsvssisXlsToCsv.vbs"
SSIS keeps saying there are illegal characters here. I've Googled and looked about 20 articles and I can't resolve it.
I have a ForEach that loops through Excel files and changes them to CSV files using code i found. This script takes an original Excel file and transfers it to a new CSV file in a new directory.
So in DOS at the CMD line I would type : XlsTocsv.vbs originalfile.xls newfile.csv
I have the original file and new file in the Arguments line so I'm assuming that after the script executes it will look at the filepaths in the loop and loop through them so I want it do to this when it runs:
XlsTocsv.vbs [User::@ExcelFile] [User::@CSVFile]
I just can't get it to execute and I keep getting illegal characters.
during period of troubles connecting to Local Servers and Sites location i.e., to [URL], the place where all Reports are saved by default, I have continued to work on some Reports that have been saved to file system of my localhost/developing machine. But, upon recovery of http location, I can not see/open those files?
how to approach those files in order to open them in Report Builder 3.0 and thus, to "save as" them to the http location? Seems that Report Builder has chosen that location, by default, somehow.....
We are running 2014 enterprise. Our users love to see related report sections saved in separate tabs of the same spreadsheet. Is there a way to control how ssrs will save a report to excel when it comes to tabs?
Are subreports a/the way (and only way) to do this?
By sections I mean they might have a grid, then another grid, then a graph then another graph and so on.
What property controls the tab name? What if they want to combine 2 or more sections into one tab?
In ssrs text box data is coming from database in single line .But actually it is of two different paragraph.so how to break the paragraph data in two different line .
I have a stacked bar with Line marker. that shows the trend contribution. My concerned is the line marker was behind the stacked bar which it should be at the front or before the stacked bar. how to fixed this in SSRS and Report builder. The line marker is the finished good qty while the 3 other legend WIP, FG and Scrap is the Percentage.
Is there something I can do in layout mode to cause line breaks to only occur when data changes? I am creating a list of students and their degrees, but some students have multiple degrees and some only have one. If I place the information in a table with a blank row for a break, it breaks after every degree, but without the break there are no breaks at all.
Here's what I want:
Student degree degree
Student degree
Student degree degree degree
But what I have is:
Student degree
degree
Student degree
Student degree
degree
degree
Is there any way to fix this, perhaps with an expression of some kind?
I have 10 records seperated by ID. I m using List in SSRS to show data on report. I need to add horizontal line after first record, then after second record till 10 th record. How do we add this line?
Is there a possibility in SSRS to have One stacked bar of cumulative sum of different ID's and and Line Chart at left hand of the Bar which will show the Progress as soon as the ID turn to Competed status.
I have been trying to do this , however there is huge problem of scaling:
The line should be finished at all the completed ID's SUM which is the lowest stack of the Bar.
However , the bar gets stretched to all of the space.
I have tried to place it into Tab lix, But it doesn't work.
How to call a table valued functions from SSRS reports ?
Is there a way to call by selecting Dataset properties> Query >Stored Procedure radio button, If not then why our object type function is visible under this list.
We had finished converting a lot of our reports from Crystal Reports to SSRS. Upon doing so, one report, the customer's invoice has comments in the report that contain (s) at then end of a word to indicate singular or plural. Crystal reports handled the wrap correctly and kept the word together including the (s), but in SSRS, the (s) is being wrapped to the next line, which doesn't look good at all.
In this, I need to add line charts for the three years specifying the running total. I already have bar charts for the respective years. This is the query that I used to get the dataset.
SELECT [Parent Name], [ID], [Year], [Month], SUM([Value]) AS 'Running Total' FROM Regulus_Data_Backup GROUP BY [Parent Name], [ID], [Year], [Month] order by [Parent Name],[ID], [Year], DATEPART(mm,CAST([Month]+ Convert(varchar(4),[Year]) AS DATETIME))
Then I added a series with a expression that had the chart type as line as shown below.
My Expression was =RunningValue(Fields!Running_Total.Value,SUM,"MonthWiseData")
My 3 parameter was "MonthWiseData" which is my dataset name. Is this correct? I use the same dataset to get the bar charts too. I get a error message now when loading the report saying "the scope parameter must be set to a string constant.
My goal is to get bar values for 3 years for the 12 months and in the same chart get the cumulative numbers for the 3 years for the 12 months. How can I do this?
I am working on SSRS. Based on parameter value I needs to call the related view. Below are my current expression query. but it has some error.
=IIF(Parameters!RacServiceOfferingsOnly.Value=0, SELECT * FROM VW_FLIGHT_SHEET_SUMM_RAC_N WHERE "TransferDate" BETWEEN DECODE(:StartDate,NULL, "TransferDate",:StartDate) AND DECODE(:EndDate,NULL, "TransferDate",:EndDate) AND (:TransferType IS NULL OR :TransferType = "Direction"),SELECT * FROM VW_FLIGHT_SHEET_SUMM_RAC_Y WHERE "TransferDate" BETWEEN DECODE(:StartDate,NULL, "TransferDate",:StartDate) AND DECODE(:EndDate,NULL, "TransferDate",:EndDate))
SELECT dbo.incident.incident_ref, Customer.cust_n,incident.date_logged FROM incident INNER JOIN Customer ON incident.incident_id = Customer.cust_id WHERE incident.date_logged BETWEEN @date_from AND DATEADD(day, 1, @date_to)
I need to use a condition here to display customer based on my selection in dropdown list (Include ABC )
