I'm attempting to query the MS Index Server. I allow the users to supply the search text and when doing that it is best to pass the text into the query via a parameter to protect against SQL Injection attacks. However, for some reason I cannot get the FREETEXT predicate to work with a parameter. The FREETEXT predicate works fine when the query is concatenated together. I'd like an example of the FREETEXT predicate working with MS Index Server (Windows 2003).
The following line works just fine: cmd.CommandText = "select doctitle, filename, vpath, rank, characterization from scope() where FREETEXT(Contents, '" + searchText + "') order by rank desc "
I'd like the following lines to work:cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@SearchText", searchText)
cmd.CommandText = "select doctitle, filename, vpath, rank, characterization from scope() where FREETEXT(Contents, @SearchText) order by rank desc "
So now I'm wondering if the MS Index Server doesn't support the use of a parameter in this way or if I somehow managed to get the syntax wrong.
I don't know whether this is the right place to ask this question. I didn't get the answer from sql forums may be someone here can help. I need to use freetext on two columnssomething likefreetext(column1+column2,@Search) this will give error "Incorrect syntax near '+'."Any One know the correct syntax. Thanks
I have a vb page, which is a simple front end so I can edit text from anywhere.
The person who is going to use it knows no html, and so I am trying to get freetextbox to work.

Hello all. I'm new to this forum and of course I found it because I have a problem I can't find the answer to.
I have full-text indexing on a couple of tables in my database. Periodically, maybe once every couple of weeks, I get an error on a webpage that runs a stored procedure searching these tables. The error is as follows:
"Cannot use a CONTAINS or FREETEXT predicate on table or indexed view 'Products' because it is not full-text indexed."
I'm running Classic ASP, and the stored procedures run thousands of times a day. As soon as I get the error email from the website containing the url that created the error, I immediately click on it, but by that time, the error has stopped and everything is running properly.
The timing of the error does not coorespond to any other processes. My transactionals run on the hour and the index is re-built at 12:45am, yet I just received the error again at 12:45pm (no, I checked the clocks and they are right).
I do not have replication running and I don't know where to look next.
I tried the following select: select * from patientprofile where contains (BillingNotes, '572576-02')
And got the errormessage: Server: Msg 7601, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot use a CONTAINS or FREETEXT predicate on table 'patientprofile' because it is not full-text indexed.
It shows BillingNotes as a text column
Is there a differnet way I can search this note field for records that contain that text value (572576-02)
Is there a way I could achieve something like this. freetext(FirstName+LastName,@Name) FirstName and LastName are two columns in my database table. What I am trying here is allowing the user to type their first name , last name or both. and write a search which can find there record for all the three cases. Please Advice.
Hi, I realised that I am not able to do a FREETEXT search on multiple table, example:SELECT * FROM [tStaffDir], [tStaffDir_ClientExp], [tStaffDir_CoreSpecs], [tStaffDir_GlobalExp], [tStaffDir_Lang], [tStaffDir_PrevEmp], [tStaffDir_TerEdu] WHERE FREETEXT(*, @Name) ORDER BY [Name] Can I use FREETEXTTABLE instead? How do I go about doing it?
I installed SQL server 7.0 beta 3 and I have been experimenting with the full text search capabilities. The catalogs appear to build correctly, but when I issue a query against the full text database, isql/w always returns with `contains` is not a recognized function name. I am confident of my query syntax, since I can execute an identical query against a database without full text search enabled and I get an error stating that the target database does not have full text searching enabled. Has anybody else encountered this? I am hoping that I am missing something obvious/simple.
Hi,I am using MS SQL server 2005 and wondering how to sort my results by rank using FREETEXT on multiple columns. Is there a way to do this? My two colums are:title and description
I am trying to do a freetext filter with mutiple columns using a column list, but I can't get the syntax down for multiple column list. First, am I am going about this the right way...Do I need to be doing both? Second why doesn't mutiple columns work. I can't find any good samples online. What I am trying to accomplish is a refined search stored procedure that uses the freetext to do the search refinement. Any help would be appreciated.

Please have a look at the following two queries, the purpose of which is to find which ten users (represented by 'Username') have created the most records which contain the term 'foo':
SELECT TOP 10 Username, COUNT(*) AS [Count] FROM Options
WHERE FREETEXT(*, 'foo')
GROUP BY Username
ORDER BY [Count] DESC
SELECT TOP 10 Username, COUNT(*) AS [Count] FROM Options
JOIN FREETEXTTABLE (Options, *, 'foo', 500) ct
ON OptionID = ct.[KEY]
GROUP BY Username
ORDER BY [Count] DESC
They both produce the same result set. However, I am wondering which is more performant. At first glance, it would seem the first one would be. It doesn't involve a JOIN and should, therefore, be more efficient.
But this depends on how the FREETEXT expression is evaluated. My concern is that internally, SQL Server would generate an entire recordset based on 'WHERE FREETEXT(*, 'foo')', which could be thousands of records, and only then restrict this to the TOP 10 by COUNT.
If this does happen, then it would be better to join to a FREETEXTTABLE, where I can at least restrict the result set using the 'top_n_by_rank' parameter (which is set as '500' in this case, as this seems a good balance of performance against the likely number of duplicates I will get in my FREETEXTTABLE results).
So... I am worrying about this unnecessarily? Should I just use the simpler first version?
Hello, since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.
I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest] @Name nvarchar(20)= ''
AS BEGIN
declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);
SET NOCOUNT ON set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table' if (@Name <> '') begin set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + '''' end EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery end
Inside my business Intelligence Project I created: -the shared data source with the connection String - a data set : CommandType = Stored Procedure Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.
Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter... So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name allow blank value is checked and is non-queried
the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!
I have two report , first is main report which is matrix and have one parameter User_ids which is multi value selection and my second report is basic chart of user_wise performance.
Now, my main report (matrix ) works fine for Multiple selection of users and i have putted one textbox on main report chart which has action properties set for chart report, when user click on chart button it must goes to chart with user selected in main report. Now , i have used expression for parameter to send it like ..
=join(parameter!user_id!value,",") which pass selected value to chart
And when I am selecting single user it passing that value to chart parameter list but , when it is more than one user it errors with conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value '121,128' to data type int. But my chart also works when passing 121,128 in user parameter in preview of report .
I need "conditional" cascading parameters: In Report Manager when one changes parameter 1, parameter 2 get changed based on parameter 1. Optionally, one can also enter values to parameter 2 directly.
I was able to achieve this in SSRS 2000 (SP2) with the following setups. SSRS 2005 and SP1 no longer works - Parameter 2 always shows its default value regardless whether one select a value in Parameter 1 or not.
Parameter 1 available values: from query default values: non query (specify a value "<None>") Parameter 2 available values: Non query (no value specified) default values: from query (based on Parameter 1)
It seems to me that the default value in SSRS 2000 is considered as cascading parameter. But it is no longer the case in SSRS 2005.
Is this a SSRS 2005 bug? is there any other work arounds or suggestions?
I have parameters in my report. The user can choose the year, month and date (3 parameters). Now I want to set default vaules for the parameters , so that the user sees the report for example for the current day without selecting the parameters. I tried to set the type of the parameters to DateTime and the default value for example for the year to "=Today().Year" . But when I execute the report an error occures . Something like : no validValue for this parameter.
My Attributes for the year month and date are from an Analyis Services Cube from a Server Time dimension . Does somebody know how to make it possible to set default values for this parameters?
Other question :
Does somebody know how I can reduce the values for a parameter. For Example I have a parameter "year" from a server time dimension from a cube. The values which are available are "Year 2004", "Year 2005", "Year 2006", "Year 2007". But I want that the user only can choose "Year 2006" or "Year 2007" ant not every Year or "All". Or Other Example: The User should only choose a Date that is int the past or Today but not a Date in the future.
my dataset from sharepoint list. and this dataset value assign to parameter. i want when no any parameter is selected than it should filter like "ALL". when i select alow null value it give me prompt error you can not select null in multivalue parameter.How can i do it. i am using share point list.
Does anyone know if this is possible right out of the box in SSRS 2005 against an OLAP data source?
I have several parameters. My second parameter is to be filtered based on the first parameter (kinda like cascading), but how do I do this against an OLAP data source? Lets say I have param1 and param2 in a dataset. I want Param2 to show the locations only based on what I select in Param1. Same but a little different: I have Parameter1 and then my second parameter (Param2) is a boolean (True/False). I want to show Parameter 3/Paramater 4 based on selection of Param2 (So, if true, show Param3, if false, show Param 4) and remember we are doing this in a sequence. Can you do this thru SSRS? Any help would be great. Thanks for your time in advance. Kent
Is it possible to fill a parameter list with values based on another parameter value? Here's what I have so far (which hasn't worked)... I'd like to generate a report listing information for a student. The report viewer would first select a school from the first drop-down menu, and then the second drop-down menu would populate with the list of students at that school. I have a dataset that calls a sp which returns a list of schools (SchoolID and SchoolName fields from the database table). I have another dataset that calls a sp (with SchoolID as the parameter) which returns a list of students for that school. Both datasets return the appropriate data when tested individually, but when I set up the Report Parameters and build the report, these errors come up... The value expression for the query parameter '@SchoolID' refers to a non-existing report parameter 'SchoolID'. The report parameter 'Student' has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter "SchoolID". Forward dependencies are not valid. ...Is it possible for the reoprt to generate a list of available parameter values based on the value selected for another parameter? Any help you can give me would be great!! Thank you
I am using reporting services 2012, Can we make visibility of report parameter dynamic, ie can we make parameter visible or hide on certain condition or its visibility depends on other parameters Is this feature available in any other updated version of ssrs?
I had thought that this was possible but I can't seem to figure out the syntax. Essentially I have a report where one of the parameters is populated by a stored procedure.
Right now this is easily accomplished by using "exec <storedprocname>" as the query string for the report parameter. However I am not clear if it is possible to now incorporate User!UserID as parameter to the stored procedure. Is it? Thanks
I would like to be able to adjust the multi-value property of a parameter based on the value of another parameter in my report. The controlling paramter would be binary with two options for Single or Multiple selection. I would like my parameter to default to multi-value, which I can do on the screen selection. I have tried to add an IIF statement to the XML code, with no success. Any ideas would be helpful.
I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.
So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices. if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.
Using SQL Server 2008R2 and Report Builder 3.0..I have an action set in a text box of a table. My intent is to pass the value of that text box (which is variable) to a sub-report in a popup window. Here's my code: URL....The parameter of the report I'm trying to open is @SONum.I'm guessing my error is involved in the formatting of how the value of the parameter is being passed. I've also seen examples where the report server and report values were parameterized, but I don't know where to define
Parameters!ServerAddress.Value anywhere.Do I need to have something set up a certain way within the report I'm opening? Here's the report Parameter settings on the report I'm trying to open.
I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?
I want to set the default parameters for a function. I;d like to set the date start date to current date and end date for the last 90 days. how to make this work?

After running my ssis pkg for some time with no problems I saw the following error come up, probably during execution of a stored procedure ...
An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "The formal parameter "@ReportingId" was not declared as an OUTPUT parameter, but the actual parameter passed in requested output.".
I see some references to this on the web (even this one) but so far they seem like deadends. Doe anybody know what this means? Below is a summary of how the variable is used in the stored proc.
The sp is declared with 21 input params only, none of them is @ReportingId. It declares @ReportingId as a bigint variable and uses it in the beginning of the proc as follows...
Code Snippet select @ReportingId = max(ReportingId) from [dbo].[GuidToReportingid] where Guid = @UniqueIdentifier and EffectiveEndDate is null
if @ReportingId is null BEGIN insert into [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] select @UniqueIdentifier,getdate(),null,getdate() set @ReportingId = scope_identity() END ELSE BEGIN select @rowcount = count(*) from [dbo].[someTable] where ReportingId = @ReportingId and...lots of other conditions
...later as part of an else it does the following...
Code Snippet if @rowcount > 0 and @joinsMatch = 1 begin set @insertFlag = 0 end else begin update [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] set EffectiveEndDate = getdate() where ReportingId = @ReportingId insert into [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] select @UniqueIdentifier,getdate(),null,getdate() set @ReportingId = scope_identity() end
...and before the return it's value is inserted to different tables.
I have created a menu report listing available reports and am setting the Jump to settings of each text box in the list to take the user to the relevent report. But I am having a problem setting up drill down to reports with multivalued parameters.
What I want to happen when the user drills down is for the report to open up with no parameter values selected. This works for single value parameters where I have set Null as the default value. But I have not been able to figure out how to do this with MVPs. Does anybody know if this is possible?
As a workaround I have been using Jump to URL (rather than Jump to report), which has no problem opening the report without having to pass any values for the MPV. But I do not like using this as I use different DEV/UAT and PROD environments so would have to amend the URL for each environment.
Seems like this should be possible... Any idea?
Cheers, Mike
PS: I should add I can Jump to reports with MVP without specifying a parameter in development studio but not when the report is published.
