Show/Hide Extra Column Without Running Report Again
Mar 9, 2007
Hi all,
Is it possible to show or hide columns in a report on the fly, i.e. without having to run the report again?
I have a report in with a parameter to let the user choose between the data to show. However the customer doesn't like it that he has to rerun the report. Any help would be appreciated!
I'm currently investigating whether SQL Reporting Services might be the right solution to some reporting requirements I have been given (web reports).
There is a requirement that some of the columns are hidden to begin with and can be shown by clicking on the header of one of the other columns. E.g. There is a list of clients and a "Total Revenue" column, clicking on the "Total Revenue" column header would show an additional 5 or so columns which show a breakdown of different figures that make up the total revenue.
So my question is this: Is it possible to show/hide columns by clicking on the headers of other columns in the report?
I have requirement where first I need to show only one report parameter. Based on user selection I need to prompt or show the user another report parameter.
Say suppose I have 3 parameters. User selects first value in first parameter I should not show the other 2 parameters. If user selects second value in first parameter I should show second parameter and hide third parameter. There is no relationship between these 2 parameters except user selection. Similarly if user third value in first parameter then I should show third parameter and hide second parameter.
Is this possible? I can not see any Visible property for report parameters.
I am getting extra column while exporting SSRS report into excel but those columns not in my report. How to avoid these columns please find the attached screen shot with red circle.
I want to send a reports to two person. Reports are going to be delivered automatically. I hope to use snapshot option. In my report there is one column which can be seen by only one person. Can I use parameters to hide one column from one person? If its possible, can you explain how to do that please. If its not possible, what are the other option excet creating two different reports. Also If I use parameters , can reports be executed automatically? Thanks
I am doing report development against OLAP. I have Parameter1 and then my second parameter is a boolean (True/False). I want to show Parameter 3/Paramater 4 based on selection of Param2 (So, if true, show Param3, if false, show Param 4) and please remember we are doing this in a sequence.
Is this even possible in SSRS 2005? If yes, how the hell do I achieve it.
PS: Sorry for cursing, but I am about to lose my mind. Any help is much much appreciated.
We were having a standards meeting today at my company and we talked about the show/hide details button in the UI. We hide reports all the time because they are sub-reports and aren't meant to be run on their own. If we can't hide the "Show Details" button and we can't ban the user with security from running the sub-report because they need to run the Main report which runs the sub-report, then what do we do?
I'd think we have the have the ability to to hide things, or least a creative way to hide them; but I don't want to deploy sub-reports to wierd places just to get around this.
The following posts reference this topic, but didn't address it; yet raise this question.
p.s. Just my own two cents, it would seem like a nice feature to be able to hide the "show details" button because there are advantages to hiding things.
I'd like to hide/show a table based on selected parameters. In the current setup I have a matrix and two tables underneath that need to be displayed from time to time. First of I use a multi-value parameter called "Lieferart". Depending on the parameter I have set the visibility of the two tables with the following expression:
=iif(Parameters!lieferart.Value(0) like "Nagel%", False, True)
This expression doesn't work though, any ideas??? I am also unsure about what I have to do If multiple values from the parameter list are selected as Parameters!lieferart.value(0) doesn't necessarily need to have a label like "Nagel" included...
The first six months will be displayed in each case.
But when i choose 6 months i just want to display first six months only.when i choose 12 months  i want to be displayed first 12 months columns only and for 18 months all the columns,.
I have some sensitive and non-sensitive info/fields in one of my reports. Is there a way to hide/show the info based on the logged in user? or do I have to create separte reports for each type of info like one for sensitive and another one for non-sensitive info.
I have a report that has three levels of grouping including headers (containing titles) and footers (containing summary values). I would like to programatically show/hide these header/footer sections based on a Show/Hide paramter. Is that possible? Currently I work around the problem by just having two physical reports (one with the header/footers, one without)
I'd like the state of the function bars to stay at whatever it was as the user moves from one report to the next rather than opening to full each time a new report is opened. Can this be done through a setting or programatically at teh report level? Is there a <default_toolbars_OpenState> tag or something?
I've created a Report Builder Column chart with months as the x-axis (category) and revenue as the y-axis (value). This correctly displays the revenue for each month, but I'd like to display a running total of the revenue for the year.
I'm currently displaying: Jan $2 Feb $1 Mar $4
I want to display: Jan $2 Feb $3 Mar $7
I know this is possibly using the RunningTotal formula in Reporting Services, but I'd like to do this in Report Builder so the users can change and create their own graphs with running totals. Is there a way to do this in Report Builder?
Scenario: (1) Initiator/Target are running on different machines; (2) Target is on SQL Standard Edition with service pack 1; (3) Initiator ends the conversation.
If Initiator is running on SQL Express Edition with service pack 1 or 2, €śSend message€? and €śEnd conversion€? will introduce two messages in initiator€™s sys.transmission_queue. One is empty message with correct message type; the other is empty message with no message type. Both of them are from the Target to the Initiator.
If Initiator is running on SQL Standard Edition with service pack 1, with same stored procedure (attached below), there is no message left in initiator€™s sys.transmission_queue.
We like to find the way to make Initiator on SQL Express Edition acting same as it on SQL Standard Edition, namely not left messages in the initiator€™s sys.transmission_queue
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[CreateMessageForQueue] @message varchar(max) AS BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @handle UNIQUEIDENTIFIER;
BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @handle FROM SERVICE [TCP://Initiator:4321] TO SERVICE N'TCP://Target:4567' ON CONTRACT LogContract WITH ENCRYPTION = OFF;
SEND ON CONVERSATION @handle MESSAGE TYPE LogMessage(@message);
I am desging my report with few text boxes , List , Matrix Tools and binding them with proper fields

I have worked with straight-forward simplistic SSIS up to now, so I apologize if this is a simple question. I have a SQL table destination that accepts daily data from an AS400 table. We now have a need to datestamp the incoming data so I added a new column to the destination table where I want today's date. Is there a data flow transformation that I need to use to default the destination column to today's date? Time is not a consideration and not needed, just the date.
Hi, I am declaring a table with 2 column Id, and Name. Id is a integer column but Name is a Varchar. I am declaring Name as VARCHAR(100) you can say that varchar(100) is more than enougf for a name column. But lets suppose ifn futuer user will enter data only till 100 characters but lets suppose i put or declare it as NAME VARCHAR(4000), That means a column requires only 100 memory space but i am giving 4000 to that column So in case of SQL any drwbacks are there for this approach. Meaning my 3900 space will not be used so will it a wrong thing or we can declare it as ,,, it will put no effect??? or what are the drawback??
I'm trying to make a report with the following layout:
Car Sales 2004 2005 Var % Total 10 20 50% Green 7 14 50% Red 3 6 50%
I'm using a matrix and the data is coming from a cube. One dimension called 'Years' is used to fill the matrix columns and the data corresponding to the car sales is filled by a measure called 'Sales'. I've built part of the example but I can't add the final column ( the VAR% column). If I try to add a static column in the end it apears only one year. The behavior that I would like to have is simillar to the situation when we add the Subtotal column. Although, instead the sum() made by subtotal I would like to calculate the variation percentage between years. Is there any way to add a final column into a matrix avoiding the problem that I'm having or maybe change the behavior of Subtotal column?
I want each item of the list in a new page. So I checked the "Insert page break after this table" of the table properties to make sure that the next table is rendered on the next page.
But printing or exporting the report, a blank page with just the header and the footer is printing.
Is there a way to remove this last extra blank page?
I have text file having three column like 300;Dev Fot;30097 400;Kit Mol;79684

my table structure is Table_name (ID not null,EmpID not null;desc Not null;FinID Null)

select max(PTR_DATE) from MPR_portfolio_transactions group by PTR_SYMBOL
and this is working fine, but if I add an extra column with another field like:
select max(PTR_DATE) , PTR_SHAREBALANCE from MPR_portfolio_transactions group by PTR_SYMBOL
Then I get an error message like:
Column 'MPR_portfolio_transactions.PTR_SHAREBALANCE' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.

Here's a tricky SQL question that has definitely driven me to the end ofmy rope. I'm using Oracle 9i and I need to perform some simplemultiplication on a field and then display it with a percent sign usingthe COLUMN command. Here's the code thus far:COLUMN price format 9,999.99 HEADING 'Charged%'SELECT pricecharged * .231 as priceFROM VT_examdetailThe output from this reads:Charged%---------23.1034.6534.65....The kicker here is that I need to add a percent sign to the right of theoutput, so that it reads:Charged%---------23.10%34.65%34.65%....I thought I could do this by just adding "|| ('%')" into the SELECTstatement, but when I do this the decimal position defined in the COLUMNcommand is lost. Does anyone know another way around this?Thanks,Alex

Hello, I have a report with parameter whice is a multi value parameter.
The problem is that this parameter does not always get a value and when he doest get a value the user gets an error message like: The "all_names" parameter is missing a value.

I have a matrxi report with 6 Columns (Col 1, 2, ...6). Based on the parameters I select I wanted to hide 3 of the columns (Col 2, 4 and 6. But the problem is when I hide the columns, it leaves a gap. That means, the matrix report shows Col 1, 3 and 5 with gap in between the Columns.
There is no Column Visibility property in matrix report.
