Hi All,
Don't think this can be done, but a user request, so thought I should ask anyway...
I have report with 11 filters (yes, I know thats overkill, but we aren't using analysis services) and the user has asked, if he wants to run it with the same selection criteria every month, can he do that without having to re-select them all?
Using RS 2000
thanx,

I am designing a report which will be used under the subreport control of a master report, now i am using a stored procedure for the subreport which has two parameters.
In the subreports dataset parameters tab, how can i mention the master reports columns, since i do not see the master reports columns here. since it is a different report.
If i use a hardcoded select query then i can just say
select address, city, state, zipcode from customer where (customerid = @customerID)
but i am using a stored proc. how to define the parameters under datasets parameter tab.
Thank you very much for the information.
When saving a report in Report Builder the default users folder is displayed when save is first clicked. However the user can navigate to any folder from the root on down.
Is there anyway to only allow the user to access their "My Report" folder and not navigate to other folders?
Users are currently placed in a Windows Group. The windoes group is given System User and My Reports roles.
Hello,
I want to have my report in SSRS run automatically (I believe with the subscription mode) so it generates a PDF file every night. The problem is when it saves the PDF file, it is named the same as the report name. I need a unique report name with each night. It can be part of the date or whatever. Does anyone know how to set this?
Thanks,
Warren
I used Report Builder to create a report then I saved it. The report does NOT appear in my Shared Reports folder in Report Manager. However, if I go back into Report Builder and hit "open" the report defintion is saved and I can open and run it in Report Builder.
Why can't I run it from Report Manager?
Thanks.
Is there a property or a format type that I can use on a field to enter an excel formula and have it actually be a formula once it is saved to excel out of reporting services.
This is a 'what if' report. That the users want to fiddle with after it is generated.
I have item number, cost, sell price, and discount from the database. I calculate the gross profit and the percent from those fields. They want to take this report, save it to excel and then have the gross profit change when they enter a new discount amount.
I have tried to just enter the fields like they would look in excel but the report just shows A3 - A2. If I use the = before it will not run and says A3 is not defined. I have tried quotes, parenthesis, square brackets any thing that looked remotely possible in properties menu to have the values save as a formula.
I don't think it is possible but would like a second opinion.

Hi
Report created in VS has some data in the page header, but when report is saved to pdf file that data disappears in page header. The data in page header that disappear are the ReportItems taken from detail line of a table in the report body. This problem started as a result of converting existing report from sql server/VS 2003 to qsl server/VS 2005.
Before conversion, report saved to Adobe pdf file showed all data. What could be the problem?
Thank you
Appreciate your help
I'm trying to do something which I hope can be accomplished relatively simply.
I have a report similar to bank statements let's say. When run, it currently prints out each person's statement into one file, with page breaks sepearating each person's statement. What I need to do, is when the report is run, save each person's report into a seperate file for the purpose of emailing to them later.
I could easily modify my report to just output for one particular person, but I'm not sure if there's a way to "bulk render" all the reports and have them saved to sepearate files.
I should also add that I'm using an MS Access Data Project (ADP) as the front end to my app - connected to a SQL Server 2005 DB. I currently display the reports by embedding a web browser object into an Access form and rendering the report via HTML.
Thanks in advance,

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.
Thanks

Hi
I am generating a Report by using SSRS. I am making using use of SSRS Report Viewer control for displaying the report. Which has an option to export the generated report in PDF format. Instead of displaying the report in by using report viewer I want to generate it directly in PDF format whenever that report is selected from the list of reports. So is there is any way to generate the report directly in PDF format which prompt a pop up for opening or saving the PDF?
Thanks,

Hi Guys,
I am trying to automate a basic task using SQL Server 2005 Express.
Currently I have a query script that I run and then save the results as a CSV file. I need to do this on a daily basis and so I am looking to find out how best to go about this. There are a multitude of third party tools that claim to be able to do this - can anyone recommend this or enlighten me of the best way to set up this automation.
All ideas gratefully received!
here is my question
the way our companies are setup are as follows
company A is DatabaseA
Company B is DatabaseB
this was done to ensure company specific data.
now i need to create a proc that runs through DatabaseA gets all the tables, creates DatabaseC and insert all the Tables,Procedures, and data when the user creates a new company in our software interface.
if you could just help me cycle through the objects i can manage the rest.
thanks.
Hi,
ok, i'm building a page to display a list of courses, a user rating and 'last visited' date.
I have 3 tables -
course (a list of all courses)
review (a list of all ratings)
visit (user visits to each course)
I've put together an SQL statment that returns everything i need, however its not quite right.
SELECT course.courseID, course.courseName, course.courseURL, avg(review.fldRating) AS fldAverage, visit.visitDate
FROM course
LEFT OUTER
JOIN review
ON course.courseId = review.fldcourseId
LEFT OUTER
JOIN visit
ON course.courseId = visit.courseId and visit.userId = 2
GROUP BY course.courseId, course.courseName, course.courseURL, visit.visitDate
ORDER BY course.courseId, visit.visitDate DESC
The problem lies with the fact that each time a user enters a course a new record is inserted into the visit table - so the visit table will show how many times a user has entered a course and on which dates.
this SQL statment returns something like this:
------------------------------------------------
course1 | 5 stars | 10/02/05
------------------------------------------------
course1 | 5 stars | 03/02/05
------------------------------------------------
course2 | 4 stars | 01/01/05
because the user has entered course 1 twice, the list is now showing 2 course1's - how can I change the statemtent to only select the most recent user visit, but still keep the complete list of courses?
I'm a bit of an SQL novice, so appologies if I've not explained this very well,
Thanks in advance,

Hi I am trying to figure out how to use the DISCTINCT function in s SELECT Query for one particular column, but output more that the disctinct column
for example:
table 1
Alan Andrews 1 main st 07465
John Andrews 1 main st 07465
Erick Andrews 1 main st 07465
I want to select by disctinct last name, but on my results I want to see all the other fields as well, and not just the last name. In this case the first name address and zip code.
So is there a way of doing this in SQL?
It does not have to be with the DISCTINCT function, but I need to net down to 1 per last name in a select query.
Thanks in advance!

I have a webform that lists all items (codes) on the left and selected items (codes) on the right. A user selects an item on the left and clicks a button to move it to the right side. An update changes the bit from 0 to 1. This uses the bit column in the table to determine what is listed on the left (0) or right (1) sides.
Then I can filter in my stored procedure on the bit column WHERE (dbo.tblCodes.CodeSelect = 1)
My problem with this is that if two or more users are doing this process on different sessions, they can trip over each others selections.
I'm hoping someone has a suggestion on how I might avoid the users having this problem.
I am quite new in sql. I am writing a report which takes data of one same column and summing them according to the type as described in another column("TR_1"."TTYPE"). So far I have succeeded to get the sum of only one type at a time (by putting WHERE "TR_1"."TTYPE" = or not equal the desired type). For example: I want to create two columns, one showing the sum of the budget and the other the some of the actuals: here is my SQL instruction (the column "TR_1"."TTYPE" give the record type):
******************************************************************
SELECT SUM("TR_1"."AmountLCU")*-1 "Budget",rtrim("TR_1"."COSTCENTER") "Cost Centre",rtrim("TR_1"."ACCOUNT") "Account Num",rtrim("TR_1"."DONOR") "Donor Num", "TR_1"."AmountLCU"*-1 "Amount","TR_1"."TTYPE", rtrim("TR_1"."ACTIVITY") "Activity Code" FROM "scalaDB"."dbo"."A_GL0601_PREVIOUS" "TR_1"
WHERE NOT ("TR_1"."TTYPE"='' OR "TR_1"."TTYPE"='a' OR "TR_1"."TTYPE"='c') AND NOT ("TR_1"."COSTCENTER"=N'' OR "TR_1"."COSTCENTER"=N'0000') AND (("TR_1"."ACCOUNT">=N'26' AND "TR_1"."ACCOUNT"<N'7100') OR ("TR_1"."ACCOUNT">N'7100' AND "TR_1"."ACCOUNT"<=N'7999'))
GROUP BY "TR_1"."COSTCENTER","TR_1"."ACCOUNT","TR_1"."DONOR","TR_1"."ACTIVITY","TR_1"."AmountLCU","TR_1"."TTYPE"
**********************************************************************
Note: the report is written in Crystal reports and the database is SQL Server (not sure of the version)
Thanks in advance

I am using SQL 7 with an MS Access 2000 MDB front end, using bound formswith ODBC linked tables. In one form, the user needs to be able to check abox to select one or more records. This is accomplished with a local tablecontaining two fields: the primary key value of the SQL table and a booleanfield used for the check box.Since the local table used to contain the boolean field is local to the MDBfile, the result is a heterogeneous join in the underlying form query, whichdegrades performance. I would like to have the entire query be based on backend SQL data. However, each user needs to be able to make a unique set ofselections, without other users' selections affecting theirs.An idea I have is to port the selections table to the back end with anadditional field for machine name; create a view of the main table joined tothe selections table; link the view to the front end; and base the form onthe SQL: "Select * From MyView Where MachineName='MyMachine'".However, I wonder if there's a better approach. Any ideas would beappreciated.Thanks,Neil

I created a package using the import/export wizard in SSIS, that loads data from one database to the other. I am trying to find out how I can add and remove the tables that were originally selected when the package was created. I opened the package in BIDS, and I could not find that particular option. I know you can do this in 2000/DTS...
Any help would be appreciated...

Hello All,I'm not really sure where to post this as I'm not quite sure how to approach the problem; either whether it's an SQL problem or shoudl be addressed on the form.Anyway, on an .aspx page (using VB.NET) I have a drop down box and two text boxes. The user first selects a centre from the drop down and then enters a start and end date in the two text boxes. The user then clicks on a button which lists the results of a SQL server stored procedure using the specified parameters in a datagrid. All this is fine and works.Users however have requested an 'All centers' option in the drop down, which if selected, essentially means that instead of listing the results for a single centre, all centres are listed for the start and end dates specified.This is where I'm having problems. How do I feed this into my stored procedure? Is it a change in the procedure or something I need to do on the form?Any help appreciated.MoP.S. stored procedure look like this:------------------- @centreid int, @startdate varchar(20), @enddate varchar(20) ASSELECT centreid, datecreated, centrenameFROM tblcentresWHERE (DataLength(@startdate) = 0 OR CentreID = @CentreID)AND (DataLength(@startdate) = 0 OR datecreated >= @startdate)AND (DataLength(@enddate) = 0 OR datecreated <= @enddate)

Anyone know if it is possible to limit the number of selections in a multi value parameter? Eg: There are 50 values in the drop down combo, but I want the user to be able to select a maximum of 10?

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.
Hi,
I am currently in the process of building a stored procedure that needs the ability to be passed one, multiple or all fields selected from a list box to each of the parameters of the stored procedure. I am currently using code similar to this below to accomplish this for each parameter:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.SplitOrderIDs
(
@OrderList varchar(500)
)
RETURNS
@ParsedList table
(
OrderID int
)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @OrderID varchar(10), @Pos int
SET @OrderList = LTRIM(RTRIM(@OrderList))+ ','
SET @Pos = CHARINDEX(',', @OrderList, 1)
IF REPLACE(@OrderList, ',', '') <> ''
BEGIN
WHILE @Pos > 0
BEGIN
SET @OrderID = LTRIM(RTRIM(LEFT(@OrderList, @Pos - 1)))
IF @OrderID <> ''
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @ParsedList (OrderID)
VALUES (CAST(@OrderID AS int)) --Use Appropriate conversion
END
SET @OrderList = RIGHT(@OrderList, LEN(@OrderList) - @Pos)
SET @Pos = CHARINDEX(',', @OrderList, 1)
END
END
RETURN
END
GO
I have it working fine for the single or multiple selection, the trouble is that an 'All' selection needs to be in the list box as well, but I can't seem to get it working for this.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
My plan is to have the same ability as under the 'Optional' section of this page:

I have a report that includes two multi-valued parameters.
In the Default Values section, I choose 'from query' and select dataset and value field.
In the Available Values section, I choose 'from query' select the same dataset and value field, and in the label field I select the relevant label field.
When I run the report my multi-valued parameters look like I selected the option 'select all' (all options are selected).
How can I keep the multi-valued parameters cleared from selections until the user select his choice? Thanks in advance.

I am currently migrating my application from Access to SQL. It looks like it's working good but one thing I cannot understand is why when I have created a varchar(40) field and after I insert a field that is less then 40 characters long, the rest of the string is filled with the leading spaces. I have also create an nchar(40) that did not solve it ether. For example: the text is "Hello World". The text is 11 characters long but the data saved to the table is: "Hello Wolrd" + 29 spaces. Am I doing something wrong?Thanks for your help in advance.

Using vb 2005 express I have my grid veiw on the form and a icon to click to save my work.
But is there a passage of code I can write to pop up a message box to remind me to save my work when I close my form. Similar to ms office forms when you close they ask you if you want to save any changes.
