I am using Sql Server and excel. I create an excel report using pivot tables and the likes that is connected to a sql database and queries three views. It works fine for me because I have access to the DB. But I want everyone in my office to beable to read this excel report. When another user tries to access it, it doesn;t allow them to connect to the DB through ODBC. I was wondering how to add a group, from active directory called Everyone, to my SQL server so that everyone in my office can read this EXCEL report. I can add a user but not a group.
I was given the task of managing the DB as our IT guy left and I really was left to the wolves as this isn't really my area of expertise...
We are trying to setup security on our Sql Server. We are using Integrated Security.
The problem we are having is that we need to have a user belong to multiple groups within one database. The user would have different rights depending upon which group they belonged to.
So far we have not found anyway to accomplish this setup.
I would appreciate any ideas/thoughts on this matter.
Hope I'm not going to annoy anyone here too much but I'm looking for a place to post a job opening and was hoping that someone out there might know of a good site or two.
The job will be in the north Denver area.
Thanks! (And apologies if this is completely inappropriate behavior.)
I want to map users/groups of a .NET application which uses MS SQL Server to Windows users/groups. Then grant pemission to the Windows users/groups to access the MS SQL Server.
If possible, I want to list Windows Users and Groups regardless of whether Active Directory is used or not.
We have a problem authenticating domain users contained in local machine user groups across multiple web servers in a scale out deployment.
When we originally setup our single SSRS database server we were told the a best practice is to add domain users to local user groups on the SSRS machine.
Now we want to add more web servers and create a scale-out deployment. So, we added the web servers and configured the scale-out deployment. But, only administrators can see the reports since all of our SSRS roles are assigned permissions such as "Machine1User_Group".
We were told that we have to create identical local groups on Machine2 and Machine3 and then add them to the SSRS roles. This is prohibitive since it would mean managing 3 identical user groups containing thousands of domain users.
Is there a better way to do this without using Domain User Groups?
I have a new SQL 2005 (SP2) Reporting Services server to which I've just upgraded and deployed some SSRS 2000 reports.
I have a subreport that contains a matrix with two groups. The report data seems to be inexplicably repeating the data for the first row in the group for all rows in the group. Example:
ID1 ID2 DisplayData
1 1 A
1 2 B
1 3 C
2 1 A
2 2 B
2 3 C
Parent group is on ID1, child group is on ID2, report would show:
1 1 A
2 A
3 A
2 1 A
2 A
3 A
Is this a matrix bug in 2005 SP2, or do I need to do something differently? I can no longer pull a comparison version from an SSRS 2000 server to verify, but I believe it was working as expected before...
We have an existing SSRS server, and have just created a new child domain. We'll be migrating users from the parent to the child, and want to add the users of that new domain with access to SSRS. In the parent domain they are able to access, but after migration with the child domain account, they cannot.
I have added the group CHILDDomain Users with a system user role on SSRS, and PARENTDomain Users was already there.
Is there any additional step I should/could take to get this active?
I have had this issue just pop up. I have local users who can connect fine, but my users that require connection by VPN cannot connect. I get the server not available or access denied error. I did confirm that the VPN'ers are connected to the network correctly and can see that their shares and mappings are correct. Any ideas? Thanking you all in advance!!
I am trying to revert back to Windows 7 after upgrading to Windows 10, however it will not let me and the following message occurs: "Remove new accounts.Before you can go back to a previous version of Windows, you'll need to remove any user accounts you added after the most recent upgrade. The accounts need to be completely removed, including their profiles.You created one account (NT SERVICEMSSQLSERVER) Go to Settings> Accounts> Other users to remove these accounts and then try again".However I did not create any new users and there are no other users listed in the Accounts section.
hi alli've got two tables called "webusers" (id, name, fk_country) and "countries" (id, name) at the meantime, i've a search-page where i can fill a form to search users. in the dropdown to select the country i included an option which is called "all countries". now the problem is: how can i make a stored procedure that makes a restriction to the fk_country depending on the submitted fk_country parameter?it should be something like SELECT * FROM webusers(if @fk_country > 0, which is the value for "all countries"){ WHERE fk_country = @fk_country} who has an idea how to solve this problem?
I expect to get a record below with a count of 0 (and I do), but when I take the comments out (--) of lines 1 & 6 I don't understand why I get no records at all. I need to be able to see all teams in EvalAnswers even if none of the records satisfies the where clause.1 select Count(*) as cnt--, TeamID 2 from EvalAnswers 3 where CoID=@CoID 4 and EvaluatorID=@EvaluatorID 5 and (Scr0=0 and Sugg0 is NULL) 6 --group by TeamID 7
Hi, I would like to create groups in SQLServer2000.Do i need to do this by roles or can i create groups for each database.I read some where that there where no groups for SQLServer7.0. Is this option available for the latest versions. Any help will be appreciated.

I am looking to find out when to use file groups when backing up. When should you use this, what's the benefit over just doing a full db backup? Is it better when you are dealing with large db's?
Also this question has been on my mind for a while. Why shouldn't you shrink the db after every full backup? What is the negative in doing so?
My question is, is this possible using a Matrix? I have used matrix in some of my reports but have always used automatic/generic SUM feature it provides.
Note carefully that there are no values for Employees in Demand Column Group. Basically I would have to SUM Department groupings to get the Project level total and then SUM all Project Groupings to get the grand total. The Allocation column is okay since the Employees have values in that column. Can this be done using InScope( ) or some other function rather than simply doing the Generic SUM of Rows and Columns of the matrix which would probably throw error when trying to sum a blank value in demand column.
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.
I have my first SSRS report going, after years on Crystal and Access. It has several groups, each nested within the next...I think. I'm having a little trouble with the groups...well, grouping the way I thought I had it set up. The groups come out looking like my primary group is second instead of first, although when I look at the groups in "edit groups" it appears I have them set up correctly. In Crystal, on the preview page you could see the groups idendified so if there was a problem in a report you could tell what group it was coming from. You could also select and change objects in preview, which made it nice to see the impact of changes. I cannot see either of these features in SSRS. I'm hoping that there's a setting I need to turn on, and also hoping that this product has these user friendly features. Any ideas on that?
Also, in Crystal, when you set up a group or a formula, it became available in the field list within the formula builder, so you could use them by picking them instead of typing the whole thing in again, and that's not available either. Or I can't find it!
Since I'm new to SSRS maybe there are features and settings I haven't found yet, but would appreciate any comments from more experienced users about the overall usability of this tool.
Is there any way to keep a table group together. MSFT says no but I can't believe this limitation exists. It's a basic reporting function in any reporting software I've used.
I have one group in a table. I don't want the detail rows to be split when it gets to the bottom of the page.
I have a 3rd party app that needs me to add a user to the SQLServer2005SQLAgentUser group for the instance I placed the DB in. This group doesn't exist on my server for any of my instances. Is there a simple way to generate it or a document that can tell me how to manually create it?
I'm wondering if there is any way in RS to create what Crystal reports calls Custom or Named Groups. This functionality allows you to define groups based on the values found in one of the fields on your report. For example, if I were grouping on a person's last name and I want 3 groups based on the first letter: A-G, H-P, Q-Z. I would want to keep it contained in one table.
I have a challenging report to create. I need to create a report where I'll have groups then I need to have a ceiling on the group to print only 10 records (if there are more than 10 records) then go to the next page and print the final records for that group. I can do the grouping and I can do the ceiling, but I am having a hard time doing both. I'm open for any suggestions.
Hi everyone, While creating our database in only one disc(C or D), suppose that we create more than one file group in order to group our data files. However, in this situation; I wonder that whether it brings any benefit or advantage to us.
Also, I wonder that why we always have to put our data file into separate file group if we use separate discs for data files. Is not it allowed to use only one file group even if we use separate dics ?
Hello, in a report in Reporting Services 2005 I want to create a top count 100 for groups. I have a report sheet with a table containing some groups. Under the groupings there are other groupings and so on. Now I want that only the top 100, ordered by a value on group level of the 1st group are contained in the report.
Is it possible that i can create a SQL Server Group in sql 2005. Eg. in 2K when u right click (in Enterprise manager) on Microsoft Sql servers you can see "New Sql server Group". I am talking about this group. I have many servers in NYC and Dallas and in VA. I want to group them in the group names NYC DAL VA. is it possible.
I am thinking of updating my SQL monitoring application to use Service Broker.
Right now I loop through my list of servers performing various checks on each server. Things like 'check last database backup', 'check for new databases', 'check for server restart'. I loop through, one server at a time, doing one check at a time. The more servers I have the longer it is taking.
So, I want to multi-thread the servers, but single-thread the checks on each individual server. This way I can check say, 5 servers at a time, but on each server I will only do one check at a time. This way I won't flood an individual server with multiple checks.
Is this possible? It looks like Conversation groups might be the way to go but I'm not sure.
I'm having some troubles with conversation groups. I need to send two messages on the same conversation group so I have the following in my SP....
BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @providerConversationHandle FROM SERVICE [ProviderDataService] TO SERVICE 'CalculatedDataService' ON CONTRACT [ProviderDataContract] WITH ENCRYPTION = OFF , LIFETIME = 600;
BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @curveConversationHandle FROM SERVICE [ProviderDataService] TO SERVICE 'CalculatedDataService' ON CONTRACT [ProviderDataContract] WITH RELATED_CONVERSATION = @providerConversationHandle , ENCRYPTION = OFF , LIFETIME = 600;
SEND ON CONVERSATION @providerConversationHandle MESSAGE TYPE [ProviderDataMessage] ( @providerMessage );
SEND ON CONVERSATION @curveConversationHandle MESSAGE TYPE [ProviderCurveMessage] ( @curveMessage );
When I query the queue I see two messages, but they don't have the same conversation_group_id.
