Is there any way I can set the background colour for an image in a table cell (or even for a non-embedded image for that matter)? I always seem to get a white background.
I am currently trying to figure out how to change the background colour of a cell when that row happens to be a subtotal
I have included a screen shot of my report design below:
(The link to the image is http://diagnostic.iipuk.co.uk/images/RS_Questions.JPG should the image not be displayed)
When the cell that is circled is on a subtotal row (i.e. is the subtotal of either the first subtotal (which I have called RegionTot) or the second subtotal (which I have called QCTotal) I want the background colour to change to black). This is so the user cannot see the subtotal for that column on the screen.
I have tried using the following expression in the background colour property for that cell (without success!):
The error that comes up states that report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope.
I have searched help and haven€™t managed to find anything!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

I have a background image I'm using as a form within my report. the problem is that I needed to reduce the resolution of the image to 96 dpi in order to work with it and line things up within the ssrs/vs2005 report editor. However because the image is only 96 dpi, it looks awful when I go to print. Is there a way I can make it use a different higher resolution version of this image for printing.. or what would someone suggest I do in order to get around this problem..
This one is driving me crazy. I have followed several steps given in examples both online and in the four SRS books I own to no avail. I have created a new report.rdl template and have all the required features for our company needs, except placing the company logo as a background image in watermark style (similar to the Company Sales report that comes with the SRS report samples). I right-click on the body and in properties set the image name (URHCSlogo), it defaults to external, but I can not get it to be embedded and it will not let me set the mimetype. Could someone please give me a step-by-step method to do this? Thanks!
I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 to design reports. Is there any way to use one single image as background for a whole report-page? I only managed to set seperate background images for page header, body and footer, so the only 2 possibilities to solve this problem would be to either
* divide the image into 3 parts so that they fit exactly to the page parts or * not use any page header and footer.
Is there another possibility that I've missed?
Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks in advance,
I'm using the SSRS report designer within VS2005 and I have a .rdl report that I have placed a background form as an image background. I then have text placed on top of the form, the problem is that everything is aligned within the report designer layout view but when I go to view the report in report preview the text no longer remains vertically aligned within the background form.
This is very frustrating, and almost makes it impossible to marry up a form with report data. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi, I'm working with MRS and I've got a table with a lot of entries. For each value in the table I'm trying to get the text colour to be set to 'red' when the value of the cell is less than 0. Otherwise remain black.
I can do this by setting the colour property cell by cell. But I have a lot of cells in the table. Is there a way to set the statement to apply to ALL cells in the table?
Basically I'm asking if there is a way to set the property in bulk instead of going through tediously cell by cell.
I have a column defined as smalldatetime. Default length (4), and "allow NULLS" is checked.In the Enterprise Manager UI, when i enter data into that table row, if i just tab past that column, all is well, and the value is represented in the UI as <NULL>.The problem comes once i ever enter a date into that column. Say i have entered a date (all is well), and now i want to remove that entry and go back to NULL (after the date value has been committed, different entry session, say).How is that done?It seems to me, once a date has ever been entered into that column, now, if i try to remove it, i get the error "The value you entered is not consistant with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit". I have tried deleting the value, entering spaces, entering the string NULL or the string <NULL>; maybe some other tries as well, but none works, i always get that error message and am not allowed to proceed past that cell until i restore a date value to it. I want to get back to <NULL>.Anybody know?Thank you.Tom
I have a report where in I want to show each record on a separate page.
So, to achieve that I took a single cell from table control, expanded it and used all the controls in that single cell. This looks nice so far.
Now, I also have to show a sub grid on each record. So I took a table control and added on the same single cell and tried to add a parent group to the table row.
When I preview, it throws this error.
"The tablix has a detail member with inner members. Detail members can only contain static inner members."
What am I doing wrong? How can I achieve table grouping inside a table cell?
Hi All, I have a table containing 21 columns. I want to alternate the color on the rows, to make it more radable and nocer to the eye. As such I set the BackgroundColor property on the entire TableRow (so it is applied to every textbox) to the following:
In theory it should work. I checked a few of the texboxes to make sure everything was okay and indeed the BackgroundColor property on each one of them was properly set to the above expression.
When I tried to build the report, I was prompted by 21 errors (one per textbox) stating the following:
[rsCompilerErrorInExpression] The BackgroundColor expression for the textbox 'FIELDNAME' contains an error: [BC30455] Argument not specified for parameter 'TruePart' of 'Public Function IIf(Expression As Boolean, TruePart As Object, FalsePart As Object) As Object'.
Obviously the TruePart parameter has been specified ("LightGray" in my expression), so what could be wrong??

I'm looking at a system where formulas have been added into fields in a table and I need to look at the field to see what formula to use when selecting eg: eg this + this, this / this etc.Here's a basic table I have knocked up to try different things...

A few months back i saw a sample rds file where there was a kind of line graph in a table cell that indicated how much percent a sales person had to the complete sale figure.
But i cannot find the link anymore.
I would like to have such a linge graph next to all my agents that indicates a value againts a total value.
Does anybody has any pointers where i could find that info ?
The result could be a password like "0l$IE" and I the save this password to an SQL server. The problem is however that with the generated password five blanks are also added. Instead of "0l$IE" I get "0l$IE ". I hope you understand what I mean? Is there an easy way to correct this?
This is embarasing.I'm creating a 500 line query from XML, CSV's, etc. and I can't fingure this out. I'm building a very complex "SELECT" query and then shoving it into the [Select] column in a SQL 2005 table. I want to call a stored procedure that just "executes" that query and returns the results....Any help would rock.
I am converting a site from asp to .net and the previus writer did something I never saw.(I am somewhat new to programming all together). He put multiple values in a single cell of the database. I have always learned to use a seperate column for each value. Is this a classic asp thing and there are better ways now? Or is this something I should do myself? The columns type is text and the contents look like this:<Details Expertise="bla bla" Description="We are a three-divisional company ...," WebSite="www.blabla.com" AccountLevel="Free" AccountStatus="Active" WorkHomeZIP="22222" ContractStartDate="01/01/2003" ContractEndDate="12/31/2003"><Address Location="Work" State="Oh" ZIP="22222"/><Email Location="Work" Value=""/><Phone Location="Fax" Code="9801" Ext=""/></Details>
I'm trying to use DTS to import data from an XLS into a SQL table.It works fine in that it INSERT's the data. However, I need it toUPDATE the table, based upon a ProjectID. Can this be done?Can a DTS package be fired from a SP using parameters?Eg UPDATE tProjects SET MyField1=XLS.Sheet1.CellA1,MyField2=XLS.Sheet2.CellA1 WHERE ProjectID = @ProjectID.Also, it must handle dynamic XLS file names, eg 981-Budget.xls,513-Budget.xls, xyz-Budget.xlsIs this the best way to go? Other suggestions most welcome?Thanks everyone in advance!
Is it possible to stack two images on top of each other in a table ?
Let me clarify where i'm going to. I have a report where in one table i would like to display (in a graphical way) how much a sales person has sold towards the whole sales amount. To do so i would like to set my background of my cell to yellow and then use an image (just a green rectangle) where i adjust the padding according to the percentage. When i set my background to yellow and i insert my image in the cell, the textbox cell properties disapear and are replaced with the image properties. So also my background that was defined in my textbox is gone. Now i was thinking if i could set two images on top of each other (a yellow rectangle and a green rectangle). But when i do that, one image is replaced with another.
Am i doing something wrong or is there another way to achieve what i want to do?
