Subreport Inside List, Excel Export Formatting Problem
Jan 27, 2008
Hi,
I have got a report which has a table and a list. I used list, as I wanted to use a subreport and be able to export it to excel. The subreprot takes two parameters from the main report.
When I run the report, it looks ok, but when I export it to excel, the formatting is all messed up, the subreport in the list appears after all the rows of the table.
I have aligned the list very close to the last column of the table.
Looks like this in designer. (List is very close to the last column.
Can some one help me if there is any better way of doing this.
Thank you,
Chai.

I have an RDL file with a List Control (I am using for Grouping). At the top of the list I have a rectangle with information inside acting as a group header. Beneith the rectangle, I have a subreport which contains a table with detail lines.
When I preview the report, the table shows up right under the header, but when I render the report to print, the table always prints out on the next page (leaving the header on the first page with nothing but white space underneith).
Is there a way to print the report so that the white space disappears and the table info starts right below the rectangle (header)?
Thanks for any suggestions.

In the Exported Excel File the Format of a Field whose value is always 0 should be 0.00. I used the following code in Sql select Stmt:-
Select convert(numeric(26,2), Convert(Varchar(5),0.00)) as [Column Name]. But still in the Excel sheet Value of this column appears as 0. Can any one suggest as to how do i go abt it??
Thanx in advance.

I need to populate three worksheets within the same workbook with data from SQL 2005. However, I am not sure how to handle the custom formatting. Even if I use a template, my data does not start at Row 2 for any of the worksheets.
Under SQL 2000 DTS, I used to work directly in an ActiveX script task to instantiate an Excel workbook and loop through the data, placing it in the correct cells, handle formatting, etc. I cannot seem to find any way to do this in SQL 2005 but perhaps I am missing an easier option?
Does anybody have a solution?
Kind regards,
Steve

Hi all,
Once again, SSIS is giving me a 'F.U.N.' time (ask for definition of the F.U.N. acronym another time ).
I
have a relatively simple task - create an excel spreadsheet with 3
columns of data - Id, Description and Sales. ID and Description are
text, sales is int.
So my SP aggregates and creates my resultset
in my OLE DB Source in the Data Flow. It proceeds to the Excel
destination, and that all seems fine. My issue is that the data is
being written as text. Looking at the excel destination in Advanced
editor:
the Excel Destination Input, Input columns are formatted as
I expected: DT_WSTR 8 for the ID, DT_WSTR 100 for the Description and
DT_I4 for the Sales.
Excel Destination Input, External columns refuse to fall in line, though. They are all listed as DT_WSTR 255.
The
target excel spreadsheet is being created from a template file. That
template file has header columns. The target column for the Sales has
the entire column formatted to NUMBER (0 decimals). Yet to now avail.
When
I check the spreadsheet, the column has retained the cell formatting,
and I have a 'I' pop-up to inform me that 'someone' has inserted text
data into the number column (even though the data IS number).
Since
the SP spits out INT, it isn't a case of receiving a text value, imho.
While trying to change the external column data type in the advanced
editor, SSIS is quite happy to let me change the value for the Sales
output to DT_I4, apply, and ok. Then, when I open it immedaitely
aftgerwards, it has reverted to the DT_WSTR's! AArrgh. If is can't
handle it, at least tell me when I try and change it. don't let me
change it, and then revert back without telling me! Grumble grumble...
So - anyone know a way around this?

I've created a report that has cells in it that I want to be formatted as percentages. I set the format code in the cell properties to "P1" and everything appears to work fine until I export to Excel. Some cells show up with only one digit after the decimal and some show up with two digits after the decimal.
I looked at the formatting in Excel (right click, Format Cells...) and it is set to "[$-1010409]#,##0.0#%". I don't have the first clue what that is "supposed" to do but what it does is this:
If I enter 100.00 in the cell it shows up as 100.0%. Expected
If I enter 100.10 in the cell it shows up as 100.1%. Expected
If I enter 100.15 in the cell it is displayed as 100.15%. Not expected
I have formatted the report to only show one digit after the decimal, but RS exports to Excel with some funky formatting that sometimes shows one digit and sometimes two digits after the decimal. Why wouldn't it simply format the cell as a percent? How can I get it to only show a single digit after the decimal?
This is Excel 2007 but Excel 2003 has the same behavior.
Thanks

I am trying to make a dropdownlist with a date. Where should I define
that I do want only the date, not the hour. So far it shows something
like "14-02-2006 0:00:00" whereas I just want "14-02=2006". I tried
"CAST(CONVERT (varchar(25); Ma_Fecha; 112) AS datetime)" in the SQL
Statement but it doesnt seem to work.[CODE]Dim sSQL As String = " SELECT "sSQL = sSQL & " Ma_Date,sDate "sSQL = sSQL & " FROM vwMareaMain "Dim comm As New SqlCommand(sSQL, objConn)Dim dataAdapter As New SqlDataAdapter(comm)dataAdapter.Fill(objDS2, "vwDate")Me.cboDate.DataMember = "vwDate"Me.cboDate.DataValueField = "Ma_Date"Me.cboDate.DataSource = objDS2.Tables("vwDate").DefaultView[/CODE]

I am making a book-like report, I am using a report that has a header and calling a sub-report that has it's own header. However the sub-report header is not showing on the parent report. Parent report header is prevailing over the sub-report. Is it possible to have both headers displaying?

Hi,
I have some issues regarding subreports placed in table within body of a report.
I have a report Edit.rdl(functions as an Edit link) which is called in as a subreport in all Open Issues.rdl(Main Report)
When the same subreport is exported to excel then the following error message is displayed
'Subreports within table/matrix cells are ignored'.I tried to resolve this issue by first placing a list item in the table and then placing the subreport on top of List item but then the error mesage states that
'DataRegions within table/matrix cells are ignored'.
Your inputs will be of great help.
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran Kirdat

Hi
I've simplified this so I can test it's not me and so it's easier to explain.
I have one table in SQL server called Table1. Five fields called: One, Two, Three, Four, Five. Values of NULL, 2, 3, 4, NULL.
Reporting services, put a table in a report. Two fields. Header of Field1 and Field2.
Value field data for Field1 ="One: " & vbcrlf & "Two: " & vbcrlf & "Three: " & vbcrlf & "Four: " & vbcrlf & "Five: "
Value field data for Field2 =Fields!One.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Two.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Three.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Four.Value & vbcrlf & Fields!Five.Value
Preview the report, all is well, you get this:
Field1 Field2
One:
Two: 2
Three: 3
Four: 4
Five:
Export it to a PDF, all is not well, I get this:
Field1 Field2
One: 2
Two: 3
Three: 4
Four:
Five:
I can make it work by checking the NULL fields and replacing them with a character. But why does it ignore the vbCRLF when exported to a PDF?
Any ideas...

I need to export some Database data into a text file. My Query looks like this:
SELECT Category1, Category2, Category3
FROM dbo.tbl1
WHERE Category1 = 'JP-4'
AND Category2> 4;
This works fine to get the data, however there is some html formatting in the table entries such as
`<p>,</p>,
,</br>` etc.
So ideally I need to remove those when exporting the data to the text file. I've tried to do it with a simple replace query but that didn't work. I've also got an issue with line splits and would need to remove the ( ).
The Data format is something like this:
Category1: JP-4
Category2: 4
Category3:<p>Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor</p> <p>amet, consectetur, adipisci velit</p>
Category4:<p>Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor</p>
I got it to work like this with the replace function:
SELECT REPLACE(REPLACE("PHOTOGRAPHS",'<p>',''),'</p>','')
FROM dbo.khia_tbl
WHERE Category1= 'JP-4'
AND Category2> 4;
But the issue is that I've got 15 columns in total and that I need to do it for several different tags for each column so
,
</br>,
as well as "" and different spaces so that would be a lot and I thought there must be a better/more efficient way of doing it...

When I open the spreadsheet in Excel 2000, it works fine. When I try to print, it crashes Excel. In testing, I narrowed it down to the Header/Footer, because it also crashes when I go to Page Setup and click on the header/footer tab.
However, I can print the same spreasheet from Excel 2007.
Am I just dealing with a "you need to upgrade all your clients" situation, or is there a known issue with certian formatting that is passed out with reports that is not supported by older versions of Excel?
I am using Reporting Services 2005 SP2 to serve up the report that is exported to Excel.
Any assistance is appreciated.

I am currently developing a report for users who insist on exporting to Excel 2007. When I export to Excel on my PC, the report formatting is fine (I am using Excel 2003), however, font sizing as applied in the report is lost when exported to Excel 2007 (i.e. font size 9 in the report is actually 10 in excel 2007). In Excel 2007, the data which runs onto two lines does not show up correctly - the second line is squashed below the first.
Any ideas on how I could resolve this?

Hi ,
I am executing my query and writing it to an excel sheet by choosing "query" results to an excel sheet. It does not format them well. I have trimmed my fields too. There are about 10 fields in the database and I need to show them in the excel file all the ten fields adjacent to one another. Is there anyway I can format them other than the programming aspect.
Thanks

Ok. I've been messing around with exporting data to excel using an Excel Destination. I keep having formatting problems specifically with dates, numbers and text (if the text looks like a number). I am exporting to a range.
1) If set the FirstRowHasColumnNames to true, format the appropriate cells in the header, and the range is set to the row of column headers only, the formatting does not apply.
2) If set the FirstRowHasColumnNames to true,include a blank row after the header, format the appropriate cells in the that row and set the range to both rows, the formatting does apply but I get a blank row after the header line.
3) If set the FirstRowHasColumnNames to false, format the appropriate cells in the first row, and set the range to that row, the formatting does not apply.
I cannot use VBA or install excel on the server and manipulate it via VBA.
Is there any way to delete the row via a query using OLEDB? I seem to have read you can blank out a line but not delete a row using this method.
Is there any way to format the columns in SSIS?

Hi All
I've been googling this for a while now and can't seem to find any elegant answers.
I'm looking for an automated way to present a FORMATED Excel Spreadsheet to the Customer from a stored procedure output.
Can anyone advise me the best method of doing this - should I / can I assign an Excel Template to the DTS Task output ?
His mind is set on Excel and the formatting is basic and easy to write in a Macro which I've done, but this requires human interaction to finish the task (Automated Run Once on opening etc).
In an ideal world an individual would send an email to the Server with two formated parameters (@FromDate & @ToDate) and would be emailed back a ready formatted S/Sheet. But I believe he would be willing to just select the relevant SpreadSheet for the Daily / Weekly / Monthly periods dumped.
Thanks

Hi All
I have seen several posts on this issue but as yet no answer. So i'm hoping that somewhere out there knows what the issue is.
SSIS package queries database creates MS spreadsheets per customer and then emails each customer their list.
Anyway all works fine apart from the fact that the Excel Destination Editor converts the date from uk to us format. My routine is already using an MS Excel template (correctly formatted) which it copies as part of the package.
Any ideas anyone?

I am trying to create a report with a sub report in Sql Server 2012 using Report Builder Version 3. I can run the subreport without any problems. I read where using a shared connection can cause this error so both the main report and the subreport use a connection that is embedded in my report.
For testing, I created the subreport without a parameter and added it to the main report. When I ran it that way, the report worked and sub report displayed the data. So I know it can read from the database.It seems to only give me this error when I am trying to tie the two reports together using a parameter.

When I try to export my new report to PDF, I get extra blank lines in my list(s). My report has a list, with another list inside of it (among other textboxes). When I generate the report, or print it to a printer, it prints as expected. If I export to PDF, it adds in a bunch of blank lines into some of the inner lists. It doesn't seem to reflect any issue with the data, but it is consistent where it puts the spaces. Anyone know of any settings I might be missing?

I am trying to refresh some excel sheet I get with powerquery. After that I load the data in an sql server table to build a dummy DWH for various testing.
My goal is to automate all task and this include also the excel queries. I have seen that exits on codeplex an excel refresh task but it doesn´t work in my enviorment (SSDT 2013) or at least I have been unable to do it.
I have seen too a pragmaticworks component but I have to pay so I have discarded it.
I have tested a code that I have found in this
thread with minor changes like increase the time to refresh the excel file to 60000 and change the line
[System.AddIn.AddIn("ScriptMain", Version = "1.0", Publisher = "", Description = "")]
and replace for
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.SSISScriptTaskEntryPointAttribute]
I run the script but neither fails nor does anything. It run sucefully without refresh. This is the entire code I run
/*
Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task
Write scripts using Microsoft Visual C# 2008.
The ScriptMain is the entry point class of the script.
*/
using System;
using System.Data;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel;
namespace ST_53932a75e92c44f086535fc017a56e6a.csproj
{
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.SSISScriptTaskEntryPointAttribute]
[code]....
P.S: I have been playing with the time it needs to refresh and I have found that set the time in 80000 works fine.

I have created a report that contained a subreport that was databound inside a table but I was getting errors when I export to excel - "Subreports within table/matrix cells are ignored".
So I changed my report to bind the subreport to a list control instead of a table and it exports to excel fine but I now have new issues:
1) When I export to pdf it seems to ignore width and height properties, creating a blank page every other page (because it thinks the list control is wider than the page), and it also overlaps other elements below the list control.
2) I also seems to have lost the paging in the viewer control that is handled by setting the interactive height property.
Are these known limitations of the list control and pdf or do I have something wrong in the way I have set-up the report. I can provide .rdlc file samples if necessary.
Thank you
