I am having a problem with date formats in reports.
I have a two servers, one setup as En-US and the other En-UK in Windows. I have various reports that are rendered using the report viewer control in local mode.
In my reports I have not set a language on any text boxes or on the report itself (using Default option in VS 2005). As I understand reporting services should therefore use the locale set in the browser, or else the locale of the report server.
However, when viewing the reports, both servers display date time values in American mm/dd/yyyy format!
I do not understand this as I am using the local machine to view the reports and the so the locale of the browser and the locale of the OS are En-US and En-UK respectively.
Please could somebody provide some information on how to localize reports correctly.
I need to deploy reports to a server in Spain, which I do not have direct access to. Is there any way that I can simply deploy the reports to a server here, that I have access to, and then copy the reports to the server in Spain??? Or is there any other way? I cannot expect the customers in Spain to be able to use Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 themselves to deploy reports (they do not even have access to the tool).

How do I set up reporting services on a clustered server? I have configured reporting services on both clusters, but somehow I cannot initialize both of them. Only on will be initialized at a time. Does anyone have experience with this?
I've tried changing the default zoom setting by editing the RSReportServer.config file to include
<Configuration>
<DeviceInfo>
<Zoom>Page Width</Zoom> </DeviceInfo> </Configuration> under the
<Render>
<Extension Name = "HTML4.0" etc. However, all reports still show up with the zoom setting at 100% on the toolbar. I stop and restart the Report Server Service and it comes up OK so I know my XML syntax is cool. What am I doing wrong?
This is on a 2005 Report Server. Reports are built in VS2005 Report Designer and deployed to the Report Server directly. Reports are accessed via IE7 browser.
You might just be able to save me downloading and installing SQL Server French...
I'm having localization problems with some .NET code - and I might be able to solve the problem if I know how SQL is parsed in different locales. Say my table MyTable contains a float column FloatColumn. In English, I would say SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE FloatColumn = 2.3
If my locale was, say for argument's sake, French, would I have to write SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE FloatColumn = 2,3 ???
"The specified locale is not supported on this operating system." The error is being thrown at line: int returnValue = this.Adapter.Fill(dataTable);
in the autogenerated code of SqlMobileDataSet.Designer.
My machine is Win XP SP2 (Hindi LIP installed). I am running VS 2005 and SQL 2005 (RTM). I am testing using DMA transport on Win Mobile 5.0 PPC Emulator.
Could someone suggest what steps do I need to take to solve this issue?
Is there a way to specify the locale for a report subscription?
I'm using the CreateSubsciption method through the web service and need to address the "User!Language" item within my reports. Currently, it's always en-US. If I manually access the report manager and set up a subscription in there, the locale is correctly taken from my browser settings. I would like to tap into this for subscriptions.
I am working on an application that uses ADO to retrieve data from SQL Server 2005. It may be used against various instances of databases and each instance contains floating point values that may used comma (',') or point ('.') as decimal. This is where the problem occurs. Depending on the database instance the strings containing floating point values also use comma or point as decimal separator.
Is there a way that by which I can force the database to return floating points with decimals separated by point? Doing a prelimimary google search, I found hints of including "Locale Identifier" in the connection string such as
Hi, I'm creating a web application with membership and such. And I have some problem figuring out how to store locale and culture data. My application needs to know the following three things for every user: country (or region), prefered language and their timezone. Now, the country and language can easily be stored as a CultureInfo string (such as "en-US" or "sv-SE"). However, i'm probably going to need two columns in my database if say a person lives in the US (and therefore applies to US registration fees, etc) but want the site displayed in swedish (my app implements global resources). So i guess (if no one objects to the above) my question is how do I store the timezone-data? There is ofcourse a System.Timezone class, but I'm not sure how to implement it. I obviously want my site to display the correct local time (all datetimes are stored as universaltime though). Is there a "universal" timezone-standard? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. /David N.
My company is implementing a multilingual solution for our application, so naturally the reports must follow. Every report I create has 2 datasets. It seems to me that the first dataset translates appropriately based on the browser's language setting, but the second dataset disregards the locale and just displays things in en-US. I've even created a sample report that accesses the exact same columns from the exact same view and dataset1 returns the correct language, but dataset2 returns en-US.
The report's language is set to =iif( User!Language = "fr-CA", "fr-CA", "en-US"), but I've also tried just setting it to = User!Language or leaving it at Default just to see if that would work.
Has anyone come across this before and been able to find a work-around?
My query produces accurate results just produces one instance for each sales region. I am needing it to only give me one instance of each sales region and give me total counts. What should I re-write?
Code: Select salesmanname, case when [state] IN ('GA', 'FL', 'AL', 'SC', 'NC', 'TN') Then 'South' when [state] IN ('CA', 'NV', 'WA', 'OR', 'TX') Then 'West' when [state IN ('NY', 'NJ', 'PA', 'DL', 'CT') Then 'NE' end As [Sales Region]

Is there a way to adjust a date and time depending on the users locale before inserting into the database?
Users login in and their country of residence is stored in the database on signup. My server is in the US and I want to reset part of the users db record when it's the end of the day in their country so I need to enter the date and time into the db plus or minus the time difference, is there a function written to do this already or would i need to write my own?
4 app servers with regional date and time settings of locale A.
1 database server with locale settings B.
What is happening is that timestamps are being generated on the app servers, these are then in a sql command which fails on the database server since the timestamp format is invalid.
It was suggested that we change the regional locale settings of the database server, but will this not have serious implications , for example every current timestamp format in the datbase will become invalid?
In a nutshell is it safe to change a database servers regional date time locale settings ? Or are there serious implications?
I have SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. And my operating system is Windows Vista.

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.

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?
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.
1. I downloaded ChartFXRSTrial and created one chart, and able to deploy it in ReportServer, but the problem is the reports are not showing there, i checked the configuration of .dll files in the help provided by chartFX, but couldn't get anything, so could help me on this.
2. How to give Tooltip for the X- axis or Y- axis values in the ReportServer , i tried using chartproperties of .rdl file, but didnt understand it. can help me on this, and one more i tried with Dundas too, If im giving tooltip as #valy then, it is showing samething in reportserver instead the values of 'Y-axis'.
In my ASP.NET app, I'm executing a stored procedure via a SQLCommand the searches a customer database. I believe the default timeout is 90 seconds. I'm curious of what happens to the SQL Server Stored Procedure after timing out from the ASP.NET application. Does it timeout at the same time or do you have to set up a value in SQL Server?
Hello, I am a SQL rookie. I have followed the tutorial and installed MSDN as it says. However, I am unable to create a database with WebMatrix. I keep getting an error that reads "SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen (Connect())."
When I loaded the SQL, everything seemed to go well. I got all of the results that the tutorial said I should.
Please advise on my next steps. Thank you in advance.
I'm trying to set up a new job to update a field in the table, I've managed to get the select syntax to work, but when I added an IF statement and Update syntax it didn't like it and the following error was shown:-
