Hi,
I was wondering if there's a way to connect to a shared datasource in the Code section of a report's properties. I want to connect using my shared datasource as defined in my solution and query it to return a value based on user input for a function I need to put there.
Thanks,
Greg
I have created a few packages which uses shared 2 data sources called source and desitination. When i change the server in the datasource file
manuallyprogramatically, it is not reflecting in all the packages. Ideally all the packages should refer to this shared datasource,but i found out that the server name is hardcoded in each and every package which destroyes the concept of shared data sources in SSIS packages.How ever if i change the server name in the data source from the SSIS environment itself then all packages using the shared datasource are updated.Is there a work around for this apart from changing the server in every package.
Is it possible to create a datasource, which is not at al shared via vs 2005

Ive tried searching but nothing came up specific to my problem.
I currently have all the reports separated into separate folders, such as Finance, HR etc, and the datasources in a datasources folder at the root level. My problem is that when i upload reports into their appropriate folder, the shared datasource information gets deleted, and i need to re-map it everytime.
Is there anyway to have the specific reports point to specific shared datasource folders on the report server when i upload them?
cheers

Hi all,
Could someone tell me if custom code function can capture the event caused by a user? For example, onclick event on the rendered report?
Also, can custom code function alter the parameters of the report, or refresh the report?
Thanks.
Hello All,
I have a situation and no idea what is going wrong.
We have many reports stored and view from the report manager. many of these reports internally use a datasource which is shared among others.
Many a times we have realised that the report stops working with the error.
Reporting Services Error
The current action cannot be completed because the user data source credentials that are required to execute this report are not stored in the report server database. (rsInvalidDataSourceCredentialSetting) Get Online Help
SQL Server Reporting Services
All i have to again do is update the user credentials and it starts working again. but nobody explicitly remove the credentials also. i dont know if it a tools bug or some where i am making a mistake in deploying. i deploy the reports through visual Studio.
Any idea?

In my report, I have a table with a nested group. The inner most group contains a column with values that are dynamically calculated in the report. I would like the outer group to display the sum of the inner group values. However, the outer group does not have access to the inner group scope.
As a solution, I am attempting to use the method detailed at this site:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1129743&SiteID=1
Essentially, the method is to declare a hash table in the embedded code where data can be stored. I slightly modified the code to the following:
Code Block
Public Dim hashTable as new System.Collections.HashTable
function setValue(key As Object, value As Object) As Object
If (Not hashTable.ContainsKey(key)) Then hashTable.Add(key, value)
Return value
end Function
function getValue(key As Object) As Object
If (hashTable.ContainsKey(key)) Then Return hashTable(key) Else Return Nothing
end Function
function sumRunningValue(key As Object, value As Object) As Object
If (Not hashTable.ContainsKey(key)) Then hashTable.Add(key, value) Else hashTable(key) = hashTable(key) + value
Return hashTable(key)
end Function
Inside the inner scope everything works great and I can even get the runnning value. But the reason I did this was to be able to access the value in the outer group. But, it doesn't work! When I call Code.getValue(key) I get Nothing back.
So, it seems this is a scope issue. Is anyone aware of a work around for this problem. Is it possible to declare the hashtable with a global scope, for instance? Is the code redeclared for every new group?
Thanks for any assistance,
Tyler
I have a problem in which I would like to use the value of the togglestate property for textbox in embedded code to drive some other logic.
My first question is, "Can it be done?" and if so, how?
Hi,
I have a problem that seems impossible to resolve in RS but i need to be sure.
I'm creating an Embedded Code in VB of course, and i need to run a query within my code to be able to continue the rest of the code depending on the result of my query.
The problem is there is no adodb.recordset or adodb.connection like in normal VB.
So i created my query like as string:
Dim Sql as String
Sql="Select ..." into "from ........where...."
At this point if it was in normal VB,
i would do
MyConnection.Execute(SQL)
and then i will get the answer in my recordset.
I need to know if there is a way in RS to run my query since I cannot use use adodb ....
If it's not really possible, is there way to go around this problem????
Thanks for the Help

Hi All,
Can I create a code based (vb.net) datasource for a report? I am using VS studio and really do not like the GUI based datasets/tables. They are a big hassle to manipulate. It is much easier to create them in code. But how do I make the dataset "visible" to the report.
The reports in VS studio seem very limited, they do not seem allow much programming?
Thanks,

Hi I am trying to open a database connection to a Northwind database. I can open it with a datasource control and return data to a gridview, but can't programically. I get a sqlexception error. this is ust for learning.

Hi!
I have a report that contains a table with certain columns that have interactive sorting. At the top of the report there is a subreport that contains an embedded image. When I first run the report, the image in the subreport displays. But, when I sort the table interactively, the image turns into a red asterisk inside a white box. When I click the 'refresh' button, the image redisplays correctly. This is occurring in the Visual Studio 2005 Report Designer when you preview the report. I believe I have the most current version of Visual Studio. I'm not sure what to do about this. Any suggestions?

Helo All,
I have report which uses an ssis package as a datasource. when I develop the report on the visual studio seems like it runs fine. But when I deployed the same report on to the server (report server 64 bit machine) it is throwing me an error:
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'DataSource1'.
is not a valid Win32 application. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800700C1)
I have both sql sever and reporting server on the same machine and using windows credentials for both the servers(sql and reporting).Then I believe there is no credential issue.
My connection string looks something like this:
="/FILE C:NTSDWKPIKPI_SSISNTSKPICCA_DATA_RECON_DELIVERY.dtsx /SET Package.Variables[User::V_SSRS_PARAM].Properties[Value];" & """" & Parameters!V_SETT_DATE.Value & """"
Could any please help me out of this?
Note: SSIS is parameterized here!

Raju
Hi, all experts here,
Is it possible to create shared report parametres passing among different reports on SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services? If it is possible, and how?
Thanks a lot in advance for your advices. And I am looking forward to hearing from you.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
Dear Friends,
I am having 2 Tables.
Table 1: AddressBook
Fields --> User Name, Address, CountryCode
Table 2: Country
Fields --> Country Code, Country Name
Step 1 : I have created a Cube with these two tables using SSAS.
Step 2 : I have created a report in SSRS showing Address list.
The Column in the report are User Name, Address, Country Name
But I have no idea, how to convert this Country Code to Country name.
I am generating the report using the Layout tab. ( Data | Layout | Preview ) Report1.rdl [Design]
Anyone help me to solve this issue. Because, in our project most of the transaction tables have Code and Code description in master table. I need to convert all code into corresponding description in all my reports.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have got a quistion in regards to SQL Server Reporting Services 2005. We're currently using the SSRS in one of our applciations with 20+ reports. We need to deplaoy 2 instances of an applciation: Test and Production. These applcaitions are running off two different databases in SQL Server [DBName]_Test and [DBName]_Live. So far all of our reports have been written to use a shared datasource. This worked fine untill we had to deploy a Live instance of the application, where the shared datasource is overwritten with the live one.
Now we have manually created a new shared datasource called [DataSource]_Live. However, whenever we need to redeploy the reports from visual studio, we then have to go though each report and point it to a correct datasource. This is extremly manual process - and takes up a lot of time...
Surely there must be an easier way around this (without duplicating the reporting project in VS.NET / or having to modify the datasource fr each report manually each time)?
Thanks in advance,
Nick Goloborodko
Hello :
Can we make to cross the name of the DataSource in URL of the report ?
Thank you very mutch.
hi everyone,
I created a report model and deployed it. When I open the rpt builder on web I get the following error.
'The selected data source does not have and content available'
Seemed like it would be a easy issue, but I cannot retrieve any data in the rpt model. The datasource I'm using does work for rpts not associated with the rpt model. Any suggestions? It seems like I've missed a step. Thanks, Lisa

Is there a way to create a Report Model with XML / WebService as datasource?
I am able to generate reports that connect to a WebService through Report Designer, but unable to find similar functionality in Model Designer.
I've got a strange problem with ReportBuilder. I've created a DataSource name Config and a Model name Customers. We been using this model for month and everything was working fine. Now when we try to create a new report we cannot run it. When Report Builder is running i select the "Customer" model. Then i put some fields on the report. When i try to run it i've got an error saying that it cannot create the command for datasource1. What i don't understand is why the error occured in Datasource1 and not in my datasource config ?
When i open the Report Manger and click on the model "Customer" the datasource use by this model is Config. So the problem is not because they're is a mistake in the configuration. I've tried to rebuild my model and datasource then deployed them but i still have the same problem.
Any idea of what the problem is ? I can't figure out

We have an application using the winforms report viewer, and it displays all our reports perfectly untill I need to redeploy a report.
As soon as a report is re-deployed a refresh of the report in the viewer shows the following error message:
An error has occured during report processing. The data souce 'mydatasource' cannot be found.
This error occurs irrespective of electing to re-deploy ot not re-deploy the datasource, and the only solution seems to be to close the report viewer down and restart it.
I can reproduce the same problem hosting the reports in a web browser as well, with a slightly different error message
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted). The data source 'mydatasource' cannot be found. (rsDataSourceNotFound)
Under RS2000 any changes that were made to a report, would automatically be shown to the user if the report was refreshed, without having to close the browser/application down and restart it.
Can I configure RS2005 to prevent this error occuring ? I have read that RS2005 seems to work a lot more within the IIS session for the user and cache things it thinks are usefull, so can I turn this behaviour off, or make it run like RS 2000 did, which provided me with a stable reporting platform?
If I cannot do this from the RS end of the system, is there any advice on using the winforms control to get around this issue - i've only just started using the control so I am not familiar with all its aspects !
Thanks

Hi All,
Is there a way in SSIS to specify SSRS report as a datasource? I don't see any options in the data flow sources..
Thanks a lot!!
Hello.
I am trying to render a report that I set up with SSRS 2005 from an existing .Net web application. The report takes in a multi-valued parameter (sequenceNums) and displays data accordingly.
This is the url I am passing from the web application:
Code Blockhttp://myservername/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fProjectDBReports%2fCriticality&rs:Command=Render&rc:parameters=false&sequenceNums=4299,4312
Upon redirect, I receive the following error "one or more data sources is missing credentials"
I currently have the following connection settings checked for the DataSource used in the report:
- connect using credentials supplied by the user running the report
- use as windows credentials when connecting to the DataSource
When I attempt to view the report with no parameters being passed in, the report renders properly and I receive a prompt asking me for my credentials.
Do I have to connect to my DataSource using credentials stored securely on the report server?
Thanks in advance.
Sam
ps - i included the url within a code block so no smiley faces would show
Hi,
I have a data table called STOCKPE which holds stock valuation information at the close of business each day. I wish to use reporting services to extract the data in this table on a daily basis and keep a daily history on the report server. I know I can do this - this isn't my problem.
When I have the history of this table on the report server, can the data that the reports on the report server hold be used as a datasource for another report?
I'm no expert in reporting services, so if this is possible, or if there's a better way of doing it, please use small words and short sentences. No offence intended to all the very well educated SQLRS wizards out there, it's just that I'm not one of them and your answer will be lost on me if you use a lot of abreviations and acronyms.
Thanks,
Chris
Hi all,
I'm just getting started with Reporting Services and have a question.
I'm trying to set up a report model based on a UDB data source. However when I use the report model wizard, I get presented with:
[DB2/SUN] SQL0104N An unexpected token "SET TRANSACTION" was found following "BEGIN-OF-STATEMENT" ... SQLSTATE 42601.
I think that this is trying to set transaction isolation levels however this is not valid SQL for a UDB database.
Is there something that I'm missing with my configuration to make RS know that this is a non-SQLServer database?
Many thanks,
JK
