Is it possible to set up a report so that there's a column where the user can insert data of their own, which then gets saved to the underlying database?
What I'm thinking of is the ability to have a drop-down box at the end of each row of data in the report, whereby the user can select an option to specify the action they have taken in response to the data. Is this possible, and if so, how exactly would I achieve this?
I want to put a textbox on the report such that the end-user can type in that textbox and then the text entered in the textbox could be captured by the report and could be used for further processing. Any pointers to this??
When I export the report in excel format the chart is displayed as picture. I want it to be displayed as editable chart.Does Office Writer work in this situation and did anyone use Office Writer to accomplish same type of problem.Is there any other method or product we can use instead of the office writer.
How can I create a Table whose one field will be 'tableid INT IDENTITY(1,1)' and other fields will be the fields from the table "ashu". can this be possible in SQL Server without explicitly writing the"ashu" table's fields name.
I have been trying to formulate a fully editabe datagrid for a couple of days with no luck. I have used code from 4guys and some other sites and am at the point where I can render the datagrid correctly (as a bouncolumn and template column-textbox) but when I try to update the database it all falls apart. I am getting "input string was not in a correct format" and the error references ...Dim id as Integer = Convert.ToInt32(sls.DataKeys(dgi.ItemIndex))I suspect the problem lies in the area of primary indexes and such. The table I am using is a simple two-column table with usernames, passwords. Username is the primary field. Here is the actual code I am using...<code><%@ Page Explicit="True" Language="VB" Debug="True" %><%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %><%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.OleDb" %><html> <script runat="server">Dim Connect As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnectionDim Adapter As OleDbDataAdapter = New OleDbDataAdapterDim DS As DataSet = New DataSetDim ConnectString, SelectStatement As String Sub Page_Load(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs) If Not IsPostBack Then SelectStatement = "Select * From Table"ConnectString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;UID=;PWD=;" & "Data Source=;Initial Catalog=;" Connect.ConnectionString = ConnectStringAdapter.SelectCommand = New oleDbCommand(SelectStatement, Connect)Adapter.SelectCommand.Connection.OpenAdapter.Fill(DS, "Items")sls.Datasource = DS.Tables("Items")Page.DatabindConnect.Close()End IfEnd Sub Sub Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Dim myConnection as New OleDbConnection(ConnectString)Dim updateSQL as String = "UPDATE Table SET password = @Password WHERE Username = @ID"Dim myCommand as New oleDbCommand(updateSQL, myConnection) Dim dgi as DataGridItemFor Each dgi in sls.Items 'Read in the Primary Key Field Dim id as Integer = Convert.ToInt32(sls.DataKeys(dgi.ItemIndex)) Dim password as String = CType(dgi.FindControl("txtPass"), TextBox).Text 'Issue an UPDATE statement... myCommand.Parameters.Clear() myCommand.Parameters.Add("@ID", id) myCommand.Parameters.Add("@Password", password) myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()Next End Sub </script><body><form runat="Server"> <asp:datagrid id="sls" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" datakeyfield="Username"> <Columns> <asp:BoundColumn HeaderText="UserName" datafield="Username"/> <asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Password"> <ItemTemplate> <asp:TextBox runat="server" id="txtPass" Columns="10" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.Password") %>' /> </ItemTemplate> </asp:TemplateColumn> </Columns> </asp:datagrid><asp:button id="Update" text="Update All" runat="Server" onclick="Click"/></form></body></html></code>Anyone have any idea as to why the id variable (error message above) is causing problems?
I have created a table in sql studio and i need to make cell editable and be able to update them to the server. I have looked around here but all i can find is code for the site side, i need a way to do it in studio if possible. BTW im very new to this so im sorry in advance
I try to find the way to create editable data grid (a view from MySQL database) in a web page. So, user can edit, add, or delete from one page instead of having switch edit, insert pages, one field in the view only. Any script I need to write or any special server behavior I can use?
I have a custom component that takes in unicode stream and converts it to ascii text. However I would like to make my default string length and code page editable in the standard GUI editor. Right now I can set the default to 1000 characters, but when I try to change it, it says "Property value is not valid"
I have several reports for users to view on our Intranet. After installation of SQL 2005 SP2 patch, I cannot delete user or user's authority from Report in Properties Tab. An error message was shown on the status bar. It indicated that JavaScript Error: 'Return' statement outside of function. Seems something wrong with the 'Delete' funciton in SQL 2005 after update. The other functions worked fine. Could you point me out how to fix it or need to install any updates / hotfix. Thanks a lot!
Hello. I am trying to write a report that pulls information in from Active Directory. I have a view created that gets a listing of users and a view that creates a listing of user groups, but I can't seem to figure out how to get all user groups that are associated with the users. This is what I have.
SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT * FROM OPENQUERY(ADSI, 'SELECT cn, groupMembershipSAM FROM ''LDAP://wmdomain.local'' WHERE objectcategory=''group''') Rowset_1

I'm having a real hard time coming up with a solution to this problem. I created a custom gridview control from Dino Esposito's "Extending Gridview" article which autogenerates a checkbox column that allows for multiple record selection. Once a user checks a box, the entire row gets selected. I added a dropdown list on the top of the page that has only two options, "Yes" or "No". What I'm trying to do is update a boolean column called "contract" (I'm using the Pubs sample database) for all selected rows (via checkboxes checked) depending on whether the user selects "Yes" or "No" from the drop down menu. For example,1) the user selects "No" in the dropdown2) The user checks all rows in the checkbox column for which he wants the all the values"contract" field set to "No"3) The user then clicks on a button called "Submit" and all selected records get updated to "No" under the "contracts" column. The idea is to allow the user to change the boolean values from a field for multiple records. Hence, making individual cells editable is pointless. Anybody have an idea how to go about this?
This is driving me crazy! The SQL Statement refenced is shown at the end of this email.
When I try and run the statement, an error is raised saying that Undrawn_GT5MIL_LE365Days is invalid (likewise for Undrawn_LE5MIL_LE365Days). From what I can gather, it is saying that I cannot include a User Defined variable in another argument. This is unlike Access. Any suggestions?

I am writing an inventory / asset tracking application, backed by MSSQL 2005 and need to allow end users to add/remove custom fields to track. What is the best way to go about this?
I thought about modifying the table structure at run time, but quickly decided that was a terrible idea. How does say, Share Point Services track custom columns?
I would like to get some clarification about what these two concepts are.
This is what I think: lets say that you want the user to choose two columns to add together and then that produces a calculated result. This would go in a computed field???
And user-defined functions are functions whereby users have for example to which which two columns they were going to allow to be processed for the calculation.
Is there a syntax to create indexes on user-defined type's fields and methods? Can I index UDT-fields?
I tried but only get syntax error.

According to books online (BOL), section User-defined types requirements says In the SQL Server 2005 RTM version, CLR UDTs with user-defined serialization were allowed to have their fields indexed as part of non-persisted computed columns or views. In such situations, non-deterministic UDT serialization/deserialization could lead to index corruption, and therefore has been removed from SQL Server 2005 SP1. In SQL Server 2005 SP1, UDT fields must use native serialization or be persisted in order to be indexed. Any existing indexes on UDT fields should continue to function as before.
What are BOL trying to say about index on UDT fields?
I have done the following and a domain user would not access report created a login to the SQL server to the user (this SQL Server is where data source DB is)went to site setting in Report Manager and made this use a system userright clicked on report folder and made this user in the browser roleeven checked that in the report in question, the user is already in the browser role Still the user would not access the report! "User .......... does not have required permission" is the error message I am getting.
I have environment that use SSRS 2005 ad hoc reporting.
One of the users (out of 200) is unable to open or save reports in the report builder.
the user succeed to open the report builder, when he try to save report that he build from shema he get error. as well when he try to open an existing report that build in the report builder he also get an error,
On open the error is:
The numeric portion of 2pt cannot be parsed as a unit of the type point.
The Initilizer for 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Design.Constants' threw an exception
On Save the error is:
System.IO.StreamReader: Deserialization failed: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Design.Constants' threw an exception. Line 2, position 2
Please note that I succeed with second user to create ad hoc report on the first user
computer. I also failed to with the first user to create ad hoc on another computer.
I've just written a query that successfully brings back the data from one table based on the information from another. Basically we have been given a table of information and need to update certain fields in our user_group table with the new info.
Here is the SELECT statement SELECT user_group.id, user_group.name, user_group.description, Consultants.description AS Expr10, user_group.btype, user_group.rootmenu, user_group.intra_user, user_group.primary_g_id, user_group.fname, user_group.lname, user_group.ntlogon, user_group.lang_id, user_group.[external], user_group.title, user_group.work_tel, user_group.work_fax, user_group.work_ext, user_group.mobile, user_group.sex, user_group.add2, user_group.add3, user_group.town, user_group.county, user_group.pcode, user_group.private_flag,
[code]....
We want to update the 'description' on the user_group table with the 'description' from the 'consultants' table. To test this, we only want to write the UPDATE so that it changes the description where the name is 'Adam Froth. The UPDATE statement that we've written is
UPDATE user_group SET user_group.description = Consultants.description FROM user_group INNER JOIN Consultants ON user_group.description = consultants.description WHERE name like 'Adam Froth%'
but it keeps erroring and saying that it could 'Not be bound'.
If I am totaling fields by groups of rows and I do so for every group do I need to use a stored procedure or cursor for this? I don't have a lot of experience with these areas but will give it a go based on what I find out.
I am trying to total the "error code" fields for each Branch. Of course, some don't have any, some have multiple errors. If a stored procedure is the only way, it will be a problem as our company's DBA has not given me permissions to run SPROCs. Is there a way to do this in a query?
I have been trying to figure out a subquery for this and it is not working.
I have matrix report to display gender statistics based on hierachical geographic data e.g. Country 1 | region 1 | subregion 1 | No-of-males | no-of-females with drill through enabled
I want to have persentage near the number-of-gender as well as total population for a row, like this Country 1 | region 1 | subregion 1 | No-of-males (%-males) | no-of-females (%-females) | Total in the row
but I cannot find the way to do it.

Hi, I've looked in vain for an answer to this, and it seems like it should be simple. Some new fields have been added to a table, and I need to add them to the Report Model. When I go to the data source view, the new fields do not show up in the table. Is there an easy way to get the new fields to show up, or do I need to delete the table (and of course the relationships), and then add it back. Thanks for any help.
I am designing a report that creates a letter to send to a named individual. To accomodate different address lengths, additional fields have been added to the db. Is there a method by which if an address filed is empty, it does not display in the redered report and the fields below it are moved up to close the gap?
I have placed a textbox in the pageheader section of the report. In the textbox expression, I am trying to use a field . THis is an example of the expression in that textbox.
=First(Fields!ID.Value, "Jobstat") Howver it gives an err "THE Value expression for textbox referes toa field. Fields cannot be used in page headers or page footers"..Is there any other option that I have? I need this expression/field to be a part of page header, but not table header. Also, pl note that I have tried to place the field expression in a text box in the body of the report, and then refer to that text box in the page header or footer.However, when I do that, my expression does not appear on any pages of the report, only appears on the last page of the report.
Time columns go up to Dec 07. But I did not show all the columns.
The values are calculated as follows. Field value for Jan07 = (No of Loans pass due in Jan07 / Total No of loans disbursed in Jan07) Repayment due date is 5th of every month. if smbody does not pay on 5th, its considedred as pass due.
Source data tables look like this.
LoanTable(Disbursed date, userID, Amount, Status)
CreditTier table (Credit Tier, Rate) - Seems like no relationship with Loan table
we can identify pass due loans from status field in loan table. Status appears as 'Deliquency'.
I have a problem.... I have a TSQL procedure that calculates employee overtime based upon days 1-5 of week being "in-week", and days 6-7 oweek being week-end overtime. The resulting data is then mailed to dept managers. My problem: for some reason the calculated colums are being generated at a width of 40 char per column. I somehow need to reduce the width to 8-10 characters per colum (this will eliminate the wraping that I currently get in my e-mails)... Any help would be appreciated... Thanks..Tom
hi friends we are looking at reports which have to be dynamically populated .. the problems faced are that the fields are so many that they dont fit horizontally in the same page ...so i have to make sure that only the fields permitted as per the report layout are shown on that page and the rest must be shown on the succeeding page.. what seems to be the solution ( maybe wrong ) that the somehow the way the report engine's methods can be overwritten but how? any other suggestions that are more straightforward are most welcome
I have a report (rdlc) in my WinForm project that the data are filtered in accordance with two dates: Initial and End. These two dates, the user inform in a Form of the project. Well, what I need I am to inform in the report these two dates. How that I make to pass these two dates of form for the report?
When I add a certain Table into my report model, one of the fields is not automatically converted into an attribute, but I'm not sure what the exact pattern is.
This table has 3 fields as its key, two of them get included and one does not. The one that does not, is also added as a Role as it is used in a relationship within the DSV (Data Source View).
Does anyone know what rules BIS (Business Intelligence Studio) uses in deciding which fields to automatically convert using the wizard and which to skip?
Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, or there is a workaround?
If anyone can shed any light in the issue, I'd greatly appreciate their comment.
When I'm building a report in report designer and get error message that says --error like --field textbox25--whats the easiest way to see all my report fields and quickly access them instead of clicking every field in a report?
I have a "report" that is more like a form with a great many fields on it that are not arranged like columns. The data is displayed in text boxes. My problem is that the "fields" or text boxes do not always form a nice single line where they connect - at least in the displayed format (HTML4.0), but actually do in printed format. It looks like the fields/textboxes may have a varying width, and possibly height.
Is there any way to make sure that the width and height are static?
I am working with a vendor application called Cisco Unified Attendant Console - it operates on a Windows server with a SQL express database. The CUPs function of the application needs to reference a "contact" field with only the user portion of the contact's email address - generally, the contact's User ID will match the user portion of their email address, however, for this customer it does not (they use the employee number as the User ID and firstname.lastname as user portion of the email address.
Writing a script to accomplish the following:
The dbo.Contact_Properties table of the ATTCFG database has the following fields that we can work with:
- First_Name - Last_Name - Email - User_Field_2 - Contact_Unique_Ref (appears to be the field that ties all other contact tables together ?)
Is it possible to create a script that could run daily to either, combine the First_Name and Last_Name fields (with a period between) and populate the User_Field_2 field for each user, or populate the User_Field_2 field with everything before the @ symbol in the Email field for each user?
Also, by default the servers that this application is installed on does not have SQL Server Management Studio installed - is it possible to accomplish with PowerShell script triggered from the Windows Scheduler?
