Stupidest Newbie Question Ever - Headers
May 3, 2006
First off, I wanted to let you guys know that this is simply one of the best SQL resource websites on the planet. I am astonished to see the level of detail, help, teamwork, and such here. Someone needs to point me in the direction of the page that explains how we can help support the site.
At any rate, I really do have the stupidest question ever. If any of you guys and gals get to know me, you'll quickly find that I'm very good at asking the dumbest questions. hehe
Basically, I want to create a template that I can insert into every Query Analyzer file that helps me create / track that query. I haven't gotten very far with it, though.
/*Set query options */
--Do not automatically return the affected row count after each Transact-SQL statement is processed.
SET NOCOUNT ON
GO
/*Set database context */
--Define the default database to use when no database has been explicitly qualified.
USE wcc_as400
GO
I would like to preceed this with some comments, but I am unsure of what to include and what would be a good style to use for it. I'm thinking something along the lines that gives name, version, developer, date created, change tracking, and anything else that would be important to include.
So, can anyone please help me? I am looking for some good ideas on what information to include at the beginning of all queries that would assist in development, and what style is easy to maintain.
Thanks, in advance, for your help!

Hi, this is probably a simple question but I just can't figure it out. I'm using SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 sp1.
I'm trying to design a report that displays a particular embedded image on the first page, and then a different one on every subsequent page. I.e full, fancy company logo on the first page, and a trimmed down version on every other. In Crystal, I would have simply used the Report Header and Page Header sections to achieve this - easy.
However, in SQL Reporting Services, there is only a Page Header section - therefore whatever I place in the Page Header shows on every page. Now, I know how to stop it displaying on the first page, but I don't know how to display the other image instead.
I read in a support forum that it is possible to do this by "placing report items above or below your data regions" but I can't get it to work.
Grateful for any assistance.
Matt

Hi there
I sorry if I have placed this query in the wrong place.
I'm getting to grips with ASP.net 2, slowly but surely!
When i try to access my site which uses a Sql Server 2005 express DB i am receiving the following error:

The database is definitly in the folder that the error message relates to.
What I'm finding confusing is that the connection string seems to be finding "aranga"s database.
Is it something daft?

I'm no dummy when it comes to this stuff but for the life of me I can't figure out how (if it is possible) to get column headers to go when exporting data. Here is the syntax I'm using:
BCP "select ATSCLAIMNUMBER, ALTERNATECLAIMNUMBER, LNAME , FNAME, MNAME, convert(varchar(10),LOSSDATE,101), convert(varchar(10),ERNOTIFIEDDATE,101), convert(varchar(10),CLOSINGDATE,101), STATUSCODE, INDPAID,MEDPAID,REHABPAID,EXPPAID,LEGALPAID,TOTALP AID,INDFUTURERES,MEDFUTURERES,REHABFUTURERES,EXPFU TURERES,LEGALFUTURERES,TOTALFUTURERES,EXCESSRECOVE RY1,EXCESSRECOVERY2,EXCESSRECOVERY3,EXCESSRECOVERY 4,EXCESSRECOVERY5,EXCESSRECOVERY,OTHERRECOVERY1,OT HERRECOVERY2,OTHERRECOVERY3,OTHERRECOVERY4,OTHERRE COVERY5,OTHERRECOVERY FROM ##MMAACTUARY" queryout C:mma03182004.TXT /c /t, /r /U demo /P demo /S ATSDEVATS2K
It spits out the file fine. This is all built with dynamic SQL and needs to email the file which is does perfectly. My only problem is that there are no headers which I can't have. Any suggestions?

Does anyone know how to incorporate header and trailer info in the text output from a DTS task. The SQL I'm using in the task works well when outputting to a text file on the server. However, when trying to incorporate header and trailer info the process fails. I tried doing it using SQL but the DTS transformation process is looking for fields to transform when I'm trying to output a 3 line header and 2 line trailer with the output rows in between. Has anyone done this before? Your help would be greatly asppreciated.
Here is an example of the SQL that fails:
*** Trying to get header info here ***
select 'Header'
select 'filename.txt'
select convert(char(11),getdate(),101)
*** Main SQL runs here ***
select
a.field1,
a.field2,
...
from tblA a JOIN tblB b ON b.someid = a.someid
JOIN tblC c ON c.someid = a.someid
where a.someval >= '2003'
*** Trying to get trailer info here ***
select 'Trailer'
select ''
select count(id) FROM tblA

I wanted to show header titles for each group of accounts. Ho would I be able to do that. The query that I have right now is:
select * from apcopah
where substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1624'
and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01'
or substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1631'
and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01'
or substring(ap_control_acct, 1, 4) = '1632'
and date_vendor_inv >= '2001-08-01'
I would like it to look like this:
Utilities
Ap_control_acct date_vendor_inv
1624 2001-10-01
1624 2001-12-01
Audit Fees
Ap_control_acct date_vendor_inv
1631 2002-09-01
1631 2002-10-01
Is this possible?

How do I put information only at the top of a page and have it change whenever a group occurs.
I want to do something like this. Have this on the top of every page:
Country: current country
State: current state
City: current city
There is a group on country, state and city. Whenever city changes the next page will display a new city. Whenever state changes the next page will display the new state in the header.
I have already put Country, State, and City into their own group headers. However, if either of them change in the middle of the page then the group header repeats. I have group header repeat on so I can see it on each page. If I choose the Page break at start then it breaks but I don't want it to break. I want it to run on the same page if it passes a group and then have the next page display relevant information for the group.
Putting it in the table header works as far as keeping them all on the top of the page but it doesn't change when a grouping ends.
Please assist me in anyway you can.
Thanks,
Sarah

I€™m trying to find a way to export all data from a table in to a csv file with a header. I€™m not concerned at this point with dynamic headers (that would be nice but at this point I€™m not picky). I would just like to find a way to programmatically drop a table to a csv file.
use tempdb
go
create view vw_csvexport
as
select
'"' + convert(varchar(50), Name) + '"',
'"' + convert(varchar(50), ID) + '"'
from TestHeaderTable
union all
SELECT top 100 percent
Name = '"' + name + '"',
ID = '"' + convert(varchar(50), ID) + '"'
FROM TestDataTable
go
DECLARE @bcpCommand varchar(2000)
SET @bcpCommand = 'bcp tempdb..vw_export out
c: est002.txt -c -T -S SERVER'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @bcpCommand
I get this error when I run this query
Create View or Function failed because no column name was specified for column 1.
If I€™m going about this the completely wrong direction let me know so I can get heading the right direction to get this done.

I'm new to Reporting Services, but am familiar with other reporting tools. My question is, is there really no way to reference a field in a page header? If so, I suppose you could repeat some header information on subsequent pages from the detail section of the report using a text box, but how is that done because when I check the property box "Repeat report item with data region on every page" nothing happens. What is the best way to repeat header information on every page that needs to contain field values/information?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

hello,
Just curious if we can supress column headers in SQL Server..
example:
create table Empmaster
(
empid int identity(1,1),
empname varchar(10),
empsalary numeric
)
insert Empmaster(empname,empsalary)values('Imran',5000)
insert Empmaster(empname,empsalary)values('Raja',5000)
insert Empmaster(empname,empsalary)values('Ram',8000)
Sql:
Select empname, empsalary from Empmaster
would have a result set like (this is not an exact result from analyser)
empname empsalary
----------- ------------
Imran 5000
Raja 5000
Ram 8000
But I was wondering if I could somehow make it display
Imran 5000
Raja 5000
Ram 8000
I actually implementation of this is something vast, but I have illustrated a very simple example to explain what I want to achieve. Might seem a very simple 1 line solution, but I haven't been able to find it. .If ther is any documentation that might help please reply and point me to that..
thank you
:)

I have a report looking something like this:
Field 1 Field 3 Field 5
RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1
RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2
Field 2 Field 4 Field 6
RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1 RandomInfo1
RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2 RandomInfo2
It extends along a fair number of pages, and I'm currently using the "# of columns = 3" in the Report properties --> Layout section in order to make it span over 3 columns instead of the usual 1. I'm using a table in which the random info fields are the repeating values, and the Field 1,2,3,4,etc are included in the list control, but not part of the physical table itself.
My question stems from a couple of chunks of data which basically extend over the course of 1.5 pages (yep. There's enough to fill about 4.5 columns worth.)
I currently have
Field 1 RandomInfo50 RandomInfo100
RandomInfo1 RandomInfo51 RandomInfo101
Randominfo2 RandomInfo52 RandomInfo102
etc.... etc.... etc....
-----NewPage----
RandomInfo150 Field 2
Randominfo151 NewRandomInfo1
RandomInfo152 NewRandomInfo2
etc...
What I'm looking to do is have "Field 1" appear at the top of each column whenever a larger chunk of data forces itself into multiple columns, or even multiple columns on multiple pages. I have this nasty feeling it's something silly and blatantly obvious I'm missing...
Any thoughts?

I have the option for repeating table headers for every page turn on as I would like the table headers repeated on every page. In the HTML report view, this works fine, however when the report is exported to pdf (a total of 80 some pages), when there is a table that contains a lot of data, the table headers are not displayed. I know this could be because the table includes a subreport and sometimes the subreport runs more than one page, but shouldn't the table header still be diplayed on the new page?
Is there something else that I need to check or should I move the table/column header information somplace else?
Thanks for any information.

I apparently have corrupted my file header on my database, and then copied it to my backup database.
Is there some way
1. to have the machine recreate the file header automatically? and fix it so that I can use the database
or
2. a back door into the database so that I can get the text files of my database to reconstruct the database from scratch.
The error mesage I receive is:
Database schema could not be retrieved for this connection. Please make sure the connection settings are correct and that the datase is online.
the header for fil c:inetpubwwwrootappapfinalAPP_DataASPNETDB.MDF is not a valide database header. The File Size property is incorrect.

Hi,
I need to implement merge replication for a native C++ SQLCe app. I can't seem to find out what headers include these definitions at all.
My development machine has installed VS2005 sp1, SQLCe 3.1, Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK, as well as the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005, each with their respective Replication Components.
Despite searching SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Books Online, my local disk, and the Internet and newsgroups, there's nothing to say what header these are defined in. All I can see is some code samples utilizing those interfaces. I have seen reference to a header file "ca_mergex.h", which may contain the definitions I want, but I can't find what SDK or tool that puts that on either!
Can anyone point me in the right direction for the interfaces or ca_mergex.h please?

Ok, I'm new to reporting services and I am wondering if this is possible for headers in a table.
I have a stored procedure that returns the text that I want to display as a header in a report. The input parameter is the database field name. I don't want to put the actual field name as the report header, but the text that I derived from passng in the field name.
I figured I could create a dataset with this stored procedure, and put the header text field that the procedure returns in the header column. However, the problem is that I need to use this same field for each header column in my table and pass in the corresponding field name based on the column that I place this field in.
Unfortunately, I don't see a way to reuse this and pass in different parameters per column, it seems like you can only call the procedure once per dataset and not reuse it per column, leaving me with passing in a single field name and getting the same header text for every column in the table.
I may be able to get around this issue by creating a different dataset for each column in the table and passing in the field name for each dataset, but this sounds like a bad way of doing things.
Does anyone have any ideas or knowledge that can help me in my situation? Basically, I need dynamically changing headers based on an input parameter...if there is another way to do this, pleas let me know, thanks.

I am having a problem with headers printing on separate pages. I have a report in RS 2000 that consists of 4 tables. Each table has several tables embedded within the table. The report has a header and each main table has two headers. The report layout is 11in. x 8.5in. with margins of 0.05in. The view space of the report is 10.2125in. Doing the math, I am withing the bounds of the paper; however, when I export to PDF, the report header and a legend table prints on the first page, the first table header prints on the second page, the second table header prints on the third page, the first data row prints on the fourth page and the rest of the table prints on the next page or several pages as needed. This repeats for the subsequent tables because I have the table property set to Insert page break after this table. I also have Repeat header rows on each page checked. I am at a loss as to why this continues to happen.

Hi,
After exporting the report the column headers in the rreport should not scroll, it has to fix with report headers. If i move the column headers to report header the columns are merging in excel, some columns are hiding.
For ex: I have 10 columns, it has to take from A to K but it is taking A to P. one column is occupying two columns. how to avoid this merging and how to place the column headers in the report header.
Thanks
