Hi all,
Is there any way in Reporting Services (2005) to set the Top and Left properties of the TextBox control with an expression? What I would like to do is use two integer report parameters, and alter these properties based on the parameters.
Any help very much appreciated.

I currently have a text box that say "Company", I have the a visibility expression set on that text box as follows:
=iif(Sum(Fields!ID.Value,"Footnote") <> 0, False, True)
Basically if a number is greater than 0 show it, if not don't
I want to modify it to say always show Company, if its greater than 0 show Company *
Is it possible to move lines based on the values from dataset(trying to draw graph kinda thing by joining points using lines) ?Let me know if I am not clear here.
Thanks
I'm calculating the format string for currency values based upon what's selected as a report currency parameter value. Just to mention, it's a call to a .net dll. Because this call is in every textbox in the details section of the report,I believe it's getting called for every textbox that is displayed on the report - but I really don't need to calculate it at this level. The format string will only be one way per report execution.
Is it possible to only call this function once, stuff the format expression in a textbox (or some method that's similar) and then reference that ReportItems!textbox3.Value for the format string of other textboxes? I threw the calculation in a textbox in the report header and also body, but I get an issue either way:
Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope
I understand that it doesn't seem possible, but can anyone help me think out of the box? I see that a database call and another dataset holding the FormatString might work... I'll try this out, but in the meantime, is there a solution to not do this?
In SQL Reporting Services - How can you configure a textbox (in a table row/cell) to display (and more importantly print to hard copy) an underline area that is "appended" to the end of variable length text. The objective is to be able to print out a form with an identified area for handwritten text entry. I need the underlined area for the textbox to be "right aligned". For example,
Customer Satisfaction
Were you satisfied with the service(s) received? _________________________________________
How long did the service call take? ____________________________________________________
Would you recommend us to your friends? _____________________________________________
Is this possible? How can I do this?
Thx!

Hi all,
I've recently started using reporting services after about a 2 year break and have been refreshing my knowledge. I've got a very simple report linked into MS CRM, the report is designed to display cases that are overdue, displaying green colums for cases less that 2 hours old, orange for 2 - 4 hours and red for over 4 hours.
In the backgroundColor field for the details colums I have this code-
Code Snippet
=iif(Fields!Hours_Neglected.Value < 2, "Green", iif(Fields!Hours_Neglected.Value > 4, "Red", "Goldenrod"))
this works fine in the preview window in VS2005 but when I try to deploy I get this error:-
"Warning 1 [rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The BackgroundColor expression for the textbox €˜ticketnumber€™ contains an error: Input string was not in a correct format. G:AppsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsCRM ReportsCRM ReportsNo Responce.rdl 0 0"
Can anyone shed any light on what this problem is as I'm struggling to find anything online......
Thanks in advance
Hi!
On a Reporting Services 2005 report, I have a table with a single group row and a single detail row (and about 5 columns). The details are set up to toggle visibility based on a textbox in the group header called "txt_Order_Number". The order line item details are set with their initial visibility set as hidden. So, when you click on the Plus sign next to the Order Number, the detail rows display below.
However, what I'd like to do is change the background color of the toggled group header row when it is toggled and the details are displayed. Here's what's going on . . .
The row with the Order header information has every textbox set in bold. That's good. It makes a subtle distinction between the order detail rows and the order header row, so when you're looking at the dollar amounts on each line item and trying to add them up in your head to see whether they correctly add up to the dollar amount in the order header row, you can at least more easily see the total amount. However, it makes the whole overall report look funny because all of the order header information is in bold. What I really want to do is change the background color of the order header row to light gray or some other subtle color and change the font to Bold when the details are toggled to visible in order to distinguish that row as the header row.
In order to do this, I think I somehow need to get to a certain element of the Reporting Services object model called "Textbox.ToggleState". If I can get to that piece of the puzzle in an expression or even in code within the report, that should tell me the state of the textbox's toggle switch and I should be able to use that information to conditionally set the color of the textbox.(or every textbox in the row probably.) Here's all I could find out about this on TechNet
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.reportingservices.reportrendering.textbox.togglestate.aspx
I just can't figure out how to get to that piece of information in a Reporting Services expression or in the report's code block.
Any suggestions? I'd appreciate a response even if it's "You can't do that." Actually, the best response someone might be able to provide might be a link to a sample showing how to get to any of the textbox properties like that.
Thanks!

I am using the "XML Source Adapter" in an SSIS package.
I notice that although you can specify the XML filename as an expression, the XSD appears to have to be a fixed file path.
This is a problem for me since the path for the XSD is different in my development than it will be in production (in production it's on drive E:, which I don't have).
I'd like to have the file location specified in the config file, but since I can't make it an expression how can I do that?
Also, since they don't have Connection Managers I can't switch DelayValidation on.
Thanks.
I want to add up the values in a couple of text boxes in another textbox. How do I refer to the textboxes?
fields!textbox1.value doesn't work..what does?
Hi!
I dont know if i will explain this correctly, but my problem is with reporting service.
I'm supposed to Sum value in one textbox and than that sum use it in sum in other textbox.
Something like this:
Sum(Fields!Abc.Value/(Fields!dfg.Value+Sum(Fields!abc.Value)),"matrix1_RowGroup1")*100
I get error msg 'The Value expression for the textbox 'textbox49' contains an aggregate function (or RunningValue or RowNumber functions) in the argument to another aggregate function (or RunningValue). Aggregate functions cannot be nested inside other aggregate functions.'
Something like this wont work either Sum(Fields!abc.Value/ReportItems("textbox56").Value)*100
Error The Value expression for the textbox 'textbox55' uses an aggregate function on a report item. Aggregate functions can be used only on report items contained in page headers and footers.
So, pls help if you know how to reference textbox in other in body of report.
Thx.

I have created 1 report with 2 datasets. This report is attached to the 1st dataset.For example,1st one is "Smallappliances", 2nd is "Largeappliances".
I created a tablix and, the 1st column extracts Total sales per Sales person between 2 dates from 1st dataset (Small appliances). I used running values expression and it works fine.
Now, I would like to add another column that extracts Total sales per sales person between 2 dates from 2nd dataset (Large appliances). I am aware that I need to use Lookup expression and it is giving me the single sales value rather than the total sales values. So, I wanted to use RunningValue expression within lookup table to get total sales for large appliances.
This is the lookup expression that I added for the 2nd column.
=Lookup(Fields!salesperson.Value,Fields!sales_person.Value,RunningValue(Fields!sales_amount.Value,
sum, " sales_person"),
"Largeappliances").
I get this error when I preview the report.An error occurred during local report processing.The definition of the report is invalid.An unexpected error occurred in report processing.

Does anybody knows how to accomplish this in Reporting Services.
Foxpro uses "Remove line if blank" and 'Print only when expression is true'

Hey
I got a SQL DB with three tables, where two of the collums of the main table gets its data from two other tables, ok? Now, on one page, called "search" the user should be able to search in the DB, and on another page the user should be able to register some keywords, my question is how can the user register several keywords in the same textbox, using perhaps a ; as a separator between the words? I hope you understand what I mean..
Thx!
Hello
How do u update the datafield of a row using buttonClick in vb? I have a details view whereby it will display the username and timeleft once log in. currently the datafield, timeleft on one user in the database is null. I'm using sqldatasource.
Once log in, it will direct to this page where the user enters a code on the textbox and click the enter button. This will cause an update on the user's timeleft. But the code must not be entered to the database.
For eg. If code = 1111 then 'update timeleft = 60 The timeleft is in minutes. 60 will be stored as double in the user's row in the database. How do i do this?
Please help asap. Thanks! :)

Hey guys, I am trying to create a report which features a lot of textboxes side by side, but I have the problem that even though they are the same size when the textboxes are placed side by side or above or below another textbox and then the preview tab is selected they often look different for example they may not be aligned correctly or the borders look thicker in different textboxes.
Is there a solution for this issue?
Many thanks.
Hi Folks,
I'm trying to assign multiple values to a textbox and I'm receiving an error. The error says, "The value expression for the textbox AcctName contains an error." The first value is account number and the second value is account name. An example follows:

My expression for the textbox contains the following:

Please help.

First time poster, I am using MS Access and I have used the following code to get some data. It is as follows:
Code Snippet
Private Sub FillGUI()

Dim myRS2 As New ADODB.Recordset
myRS2.ActiveConnection = CurrentProject.Connection
myRS2.CursorType = adOpenDynamic
myRS2.LockType = adLockOptimisticd
myRS2.Open "SELECT E.SSN, E.LNAME, SUM(W.HOURS) FROM EMPLOYEE E, WORKS_ON W WHERE (E.SSN = W.ESSN)GROUP BY E.SSN, E.LNAME HAVING(SUM(HOURS)) < 40"
MsgBox (myRS2.GetString)
myRS2.MoveFirst
End Sub
and I have the following output:

Hi,
A report that looks perfect in the report designer has a minor problem when rendered. The textboxs widen if data is in them. If they are empty they are the proper length.
Is this a property that needs to be set?
Thanks,
Do anyone know how I can replace or Substitute the current value of a form textbox with another value.For example, the string "YES" appears on the textbox but hit the SAVE button I would like "TRUE" to be entered in the SQL Server database table. Thanks.

I'm having an issue where the Textbox in a RS Report (1 page) is not showing up. I have 4 reports all of which are basically the same except 1 or 2 different wordings however on all of them they are not showing up using http://localhost/reports . If i'm in Visual Studio and click on preview report I see everything just fine. But when I view online (pdf, html, excel) it does not show. The footer however shows up fine on all of them. Does anyone have a fix?
PS: The wierd thing is that on Production they are working but on the Test server they are not and nothing has changed. Both servers are running the same version of SQL 2005. I need to re-deploy the reports coming soon with changes but I am afraid that Production will stop working then.

We want to use our styles say "mystyle" on a report. I am surprised that we do not have cssstylename as a property for a textbox?
Ideally, i should be able to add that style in the styles.css file and reference the style name on the textbox. All that would be needed is that it would add an attribute to the rendered html. I wonder if it already exists and i am missing some information?
what is the syntax to write:
a Textbox.Value = data from a cell in the table????
