Using Custom Code To Format Matrix Appearance
Feb 11, 2008
Hello,
I am attempting to modify an existing matrix report into something a bit more diverse and aesthetically appealing to our users. The problem is changing the size of columns, rows, border types, etc.
So far I have not yet been able to locate any custom code samples that refer to ways of changing the overall appearance and properties of the matrix. I am not concerned with the data but in some cases a column's width will need to be larger or smaller based on the size of the data inside it.
The strings can range from 3 characters to 15 or more and the number of columns can be just as dynamic in number. If that happens I need to shrink or expand a column to match.
I am familiar with using custom code just not in using it to access the matrix properties.
Thanks.

Hello,
I am trying to get this to work - but it only returns minutes & seconds:
Function Seconds2mmss(ByVal seconds As Integer) As String
Dim ss As Integer = seconds Mod 60
Dim mm As Integer = (seconds - ss) / 60
Seconds2mmss = String.Format("{0:0}:{1:00}", mm, ss)
End Function
Can anyone help me out? I am not that familiar with VB.
Thanks,
Deb

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.

I have the matrix above that displays the subtotals per customer(group_row), per quarter(group_column). I added a subtotal to the top group_column (year) so I can get grand total. I need to modify grand total formula to display variance instead.
I don't need to modify the subtotal formula per Customer/quarter , only per cutomer/Year. Is it possible?

I am not sure if this is possible or not, we have two datasets and each one has an additional calculated field which breaks the value JobBilledExVAT into three years.
So it reports for example how much we billed in May 2015, 2014 and 2013.
I have got the table to display this when reporting on one dataset by grouping by year
The datasets both look similar to thisÂ
SELECT
 Practice.ibvSalesByJob.JobBilledExVAT
 ,Practice.ibvSalesByJob.[Year]
FROM
 Practice.ibvSalesByJob
 INNER JOIN Practice.idvJobType
[Code] ...
The calculated field isÂ
=Switch(Fields!Year.Value = Parameters!Year.Value ,"15", Fields!Year.Value = Parameters!Pre1Year.Value ,"14", Fields!Year.Value = Parameters!Pre2Year.Value ,"13")
The field I am looking to add together is below
=Sum(Fields!JobBilledExVAT.Value)
If I do the below on the dataset associated with the matrix it displays the sum for each year correctly, I would however like to add the Sum(Fields!JobBilledExVAT.Value) from a different dataset (ABS1M) for the relevant year.
I tried this
=Sum(Fields!JobBilledExVAT.Value) + Sum(Fields!JobBilledExVAT.Value, "ABS1M")
However this adds 2015, 14 and 13 from ABS1M and doesn't add them individually if that makes sense? With the calculated field it only shows Year under the main dataset heading not 15, 14 and 13 separately.
I was think of using LOOKUP however I don't know how this would work as 15, 14 and 13 are not displayed under the dataset.

I am trying to use custom code on a report which is:
Public Function Percentage(decValueOne As Double, decValueTwo As Double) As Object
If (decValueOne = 0 Or decValueTwo = 0) Then
Percentage = 0
Else
Percentage = (decValueOne - decValueTwo)
End If
End Function
In my textbox I have:
=Code.Percentage(SUM(Fields!PreviousYTDExpenseAmount.Value, "Template_OutputData_Sales"), SUM(Fields!PreviousYTDExpenseAmount.Value, "Template_OutputData_CGS"))
When I run the report in design mode, I get the "#Error" on that report field.
Any help with why this is happening would be greatly appreciated!

Hey guys I have a problem I am trying to solve using custom code but I am open to other solutions.
Situation: I have multiple reports that the user can see. Example (Move In Corp. report, Move In Region report,Move In Division report, Mid Year Corp. report, Mid Year Region report,Mid Year Division report etc.) I have a stored procedure that returns all the information needed based upon the UserID being passed from the report to the stored procedure.
Goal: When the user logs in I want to be able to foward the user to a specific report based upon their userid (global in RS). I currently have three textboxes(Move In, Mid Year, Year End) with navigation enabled to jump to another report. The report to which the user is passed to is determined by an expression which is something like this for the Move In text box =IIF(Fields!orgtypeid.Value = 1,"Move In Corp","Move In Region"). The orgtypeid.value is returned by the stored procedure. I want to be able to forward the user a specific Move In report (Move In Corp, Move In Region, etc) without having the user select the textbox.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hi,
It looks like by default the subtotal number inherits the number format from the main column. Is there a way to override it?
In my case I am displaying percents with a decimal point in a column and sometimes the total comes out to 99.9% instead of 100%. I just want to round of the total to alway show 100%.
Is there a way to do it?
Thanks,
Igor

I am trying to find ways around the limitation of not being able to resize columns based on the text input. I am dynamically setting what values a column is getting from my query. I am wondering if I can access the table (and thus, the columns) from within the custom code.
For example:
Public Function Whynot() As Integer
Report.table1.TableColumn1.Width = ....
table1.TableColumn.Width = ....
Return 0
End Function
Neither of these seem to work, anyone else have any ideas?
Thanks

I developed a ConnectionString assembly in custom code a while back. Now it won't work. I've changed boxes since. My question is do I have to have SQL Server and Reporting Services on my development machine to run Custom Code assemblies?
I put my dll in the PublicAssemblies folder. I see that I need to put my dll in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80ToolsReport Designer but I don't have that folder.
When I try and set the ConnectionString to "=ReportingLibrary.ReportingLibraryFunctions.ConnectionString(User!UserID)", I get "Unrecognized Identifier." I checked the reference and it was still there from when the project was working before.
Code Snippet
using System;
using System.Security.Permissions;
using System.Configuration;
namespace ReportingLibrary
{
public class ReportingLibraryFunctions
{
public static string ConnectionString(string userName)
{
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission oPerm = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission(PermissionState.Unrestricted);
oPerm.Assert();
string catalog;
string query;
string connectstring;
string datasrc = String.Format("Data Source={0};", ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["DataSource"]);
string userpwd = String.Format("User ID={0};Password={1};", ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["DBUsr"], ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["DBPwd"]);
query = "SELECT TOP 1 MyAcctKey FROM dbo.MyUserAcct WHERE UserName=@username;";
connectstring = String.Format("{0}Initial Catalog=MyMaster;", datasrc);
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection connection = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(String.Format("{0}{1}", datasrc, userpwd));
connection.Open();
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand command = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand(query, connection);
command.Parameters.Add("@username", System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar);
command.Parameters["@username"].Value = userName;
catalog = String.Format("MyDb_{0};", command.ExecuteScalar());
connectstring = String.Format("{0}Initial Catalog={1}", datasrc, catalog);
connection.Close();
return connectstring;
}

I have been stuck in a problem for a while now. I am trying to count the number of groups. I tried soo many things and nothing worked . Now I want to try to write a function that does the counting for me.
Can somebody write me an example of a cutom code that can be called from expression.
So my custome code should be something like that
Public int CountFun(int counter)
{
Return counter= counter +1;
}
Also how do I call this method from my expression?
i am going to call it from a field inside the groups, so each time the group is implemented i add one to the counter.
thanks

I'm using a GAC-installed assembly as part of a Reporting Services
(2005) report. The code does not need any permissions beyond execution.
All it does it take today's date and calculate last week's start and
end date. It's all just datetime manipulations. All methods are static.
In
the VS2005 report designer, I can do everything fine. The code runs as
expected and defaults the parameters to the right date.
When I
upload the rdl to the Report Server, I get the message "Error during
processing of €˜Start€™ report parameter.
(rsReportParameterProcessingError) ". If I override the "Start"
parameter, it doesn't give me that error anymore. Start should be the
Sunday of the previous week.
I have deployed the signed assembly to the GAC on the report server as well as the bin folder for reporting services. Because it doesn't need anything beyond execution, I shouldn't have to modify any config files, right? I have already restarted IIS & the Reporting Services service.
What am I missing?

Hello everyone,
I've got an issue where I want to sum the group values and not the details, the reason is because I am hiding duplicate records. Here's how my Layout is setup.
TH
GH1 (hidden)
GH2 (hidden)
Det (hidden)
GF2 =Code.AddValue(Fields!Quantity.Value * Fieds!Cost.Value)
GF1 =Code.ShowAndResetSubTotal()
TF =Code.GrandTotal
I have the following in my Code window.
Dim Public SubTotal as Decimal
Dim Public GrandTotal as Decimal
Function ShowAndResetSubTotal() as Decimal
ShowAndResetSubTotal = SubTotal
SubTotal = 0
End Function
Function AddValue(newValue as decimal) as Decimal
SubTotal += newValue
GrandTotal += newValue
AddValue = newValue
End Function
This gives me incorrect results and I can't figure out why. Here's how it shows on my report:
Part Number
Quantity
Cost
Regular Subtotal Method
Using Custom Code
Part 1
4,000
1.49

$5,380.20
Customer 5
$66,891.69
$3,922.59
Grand Total
$141,301.23
$0.00
The issues brought up from the duplicates is shown in the "Regular Subtotal Method" column (there are 2 detail records for Customer 1-Part 1, which is why it is doubled). I can't use a distinct on the SQL query because there are other fields (not shown) on the report that are different.
As you can see, the GF1 (Customer #) shows the subtotal from the previous group, and the Table Footer (Grand Total) shows 0. Why is this?

Hi guys,
i was developing some custom code to do a running total in a matrix, and i have noticed some odd behaviour with the InScope function. I am doing year on year reporting, so i have two row groups on my matrix: the first is on month (matrix2_Calendar_Month), the second on year (matrix2_Calendar_Year).
I needed to total the number of days covered by the months i was reporting on, so i wrote some very standard code to do this, along with an expression in that column of the matrix:
=IIf(
InScope("matrix2_Calendar_Year"),
CStr( Round( Sum(Fields!Sales.Value / (24 * Code.AddDays( CStr(Fields!Calendar_Month.Value), CInt(Fields!Calendar_Year.Value))), 2)) ,
Code.getBounds()
)
Code.AddDays() calculates and returns the number of days in the month of that year on that row. Code.getBounds simply returns the lower and upper bounds of the array, plus its contents (so i can inspect them). This is what is returned in the report:
Month / Year
Sales
Capacity
% Capacity
Avg $/h

If you look at the output in the total row, you will see that Code.AddDays() has been called one extra time at the end, with Feb 2006 as its parameters, thus adding an extra 28 days to the running total. Why is Code.AddDays called on the total row, when i should be out of the scope of both the row groups? (Note: this happens for whichever row group i use in the InScope check in the expression).
Here is the custom code used for all this:
Dim numDays()
Public Function AddDays(ByVal month As String, ByVal year As Integer) As Integer
Dim thisMonth As String
Dim upper As Integer
upper = 0
On Error Resume Next
upper = UBound(numDays) + 1
ReDim Preserve numDays(upper)
thisMonth = CStr(year) & "-" & month & "-01"
numDays(upper) = DateDiff("d", CDate(thisMonth), DateAdd("m", 1, CDate(thisMonth)))
AddDays = numDays(upper)
End Function
Public Function TotalDays() As Integer
Dim lower As Integer
Dim upper As Integer
lower = 0
upper = 0
On Error Resume Next
lower = LBound(numDays)
upper = UBound(numDays)
TotalDays = 0
Dim ii As Integer
For ii = lower To upper
TotalDays = TotalDays + CInt(numDays(ii))
Next
End Function
public function getBounds() as string
getBounds = Cstr(LBound(numDays)) & "-" & CStr(UBound(numDays)) & "*" & Join(numDays, ",")
end function

I have a custom C# assembly that my report is calling with embedded code that is called from fields in a reporting services table. The value comes back fine, but I need some of the values to be indented, so I have tried all of the following and every time the spaces are cut off. Spaces work when not using embedded code.
I tried the following in the table cell
=Space(3)+Code.<<String Function Name>>
and I tried
=" "+Code.<<String Function Name>>
Then I tried the code in the assembly and in the embedded code with the same result. No matter where I put the spaces they get cut off. Any ideas? I tried characters other than spaces and they came back fine.
Thanks,

I am using a matrix control in a report containing 2 subreports. The matrix control is present in one of the subreports. When I export the full report into the PDF,if the matrix are rendered in a single page, the report is fine and there are no blank pages. But when the number of columns exceeds the first page and moves into the second page then there are 3 blank pages in the report for every page with content. The number of blank pages after each page with content is equal to the number of times the matrix would scroll into a new page.
This problem occurs only when I try to generate the whole report in PDF. No blank pages appear when I render subreports into PDFs individually.
Please help!!

I have a matrix that will pull out the current quarters sales figures. I want to change the color of the subtotal font ONLY when we are in the current period. I have a boolean field in the matrix report that is true when it is the current month.
For example, at the end of last month it displays January, February and March figures. I want the sub total to display the totals for January and February in white, whilst the totals for March are Yellow.
Any ideas anyone?

Hi there,
I'm having trouble inserting a conditional format to a specific column.
e.g.: Matrix within the rows the "weeks" (1, 2, 3, ... , 52), and in the column a "lastyear revenu", "thisyear revenue" and a difference between them, "delta %", in percent grouped by the stores.
I added a subtotal to it so I get in the latest column the "total lastyear revenue", the "total thisyear revenue" and a difference between them in percent for all stores, "total delta %", for a specific week.
Problem: I want to colour the "delta %" column green when it is greater then the "total delta %" value.
I thougt this would be quite easy, but it really is a pain in the *** because, in the background expression dialog box, I can't refer to the subtotal cells ...

I'm trying to run a DTS package, and cant find an easy direct way to run it. It seems like the easiest solution would be to throw a custom error- then the server notices the error and runs a custom job, and the custom job runs the DTS. This is a roundabout way, but seems like it would be the simplest solution.Anyways, how do I throw the error in my code? Do I just write a throw 3829 statement? Also maybe this is a very bad way to do this- any suggestions?

Is it possible to add a multivalued parameter to a report from C#? I already have a C# .dll which I reference in the report. If so, could someone give some hints on how to do it?
As I searched the net for an answer to this, I came across ReportExecutionService. It looks like it's what I want, but I cant find the dll to reference in order to used this class. Does anyone know?
If it is not possible to do this from C#, then can someone please give an example on how to do it from Custom Code?

Hello, I am about out of hair from pulling it out. If someone could please show me what I'm doing wrong I would really appreciate it. I have this function for a SSRS 2005 report:
Public Function funAdditions(pFields As Fields) As Double

pFields !FA00902_TRANSACCTTYPE.Value = 3 and
pFields !FA00902_DEPRTODATE.Value > Parameters!BeginDate.Value and
pFields !FA00902_DEPRTODATE.Value <= Parameters!CutOffDate.Value and NOT
instr(pFields !FA00902_SOURCDOC.Value, "FACHG")=1
then return pFields !FA00902_AMOUNT.Value
end
else if pFields !FA00902_TRANSACCTTYPE.Value = 3 and
pFields !FA00902_DEPRTODATE.Value > Parameters!BeginDate.Value and

instr(pFields !FA00902_SOURCDOC.Value, "FACHG")=1
then return pFields !FA00902_AMOUNT.Value
end
End Function
...and after much research cannot figure out the solution to this error:
[rsCompilerErrorInCode] There is an error on line 1 of custom code: [BC30201] Expression expected.
I'm new to SSRS so is there a syntax error I'm missing?

I created a class library which uses a web reference
My SSRS report uses the class through its custom code
I copied the dll & dll.config of the class library to the VS2005 private assembllies and the report works
I copied the dll & dd.config to the reportserver bin and gave the assembly full trust by adding the necessary code group
I even added a code group the give the dll.config file full trust as well
Yet on Repost server, the report does not work
Any ideas
I suspect it is a permission problem

OK. I created a few functions in a Public Class called SSRSFunctions. I built it and deployed it to my desktop. What do I do now? Can it be included as standard functions in the function list within SSRS? Do I add a reference to the Class at the solution level? At the report level? If all I do is add a reference at the report level, I may as well add the functions to each report's code window, which is what I have been doing. I'd at least like to add a single reference to my solution if I can't get it added to the function list.
Thanks!

Hello Everyone,
I have a custom assembly which has a strong name, and I have deployed it in the GAC. I have also raised its trust level to Full Trust.
I have added a reference to this assembly from report properties.
when I try to use it, I get the error
[BC30451] name 'myUtil' is not declared.
Here myUtil is the instance name of the my class. (All methods are instance methods in my class and there are no static methods).
I found many people facing this issue, and the solution involved copying of the assembly in some privateassemblies folder. However that should not be the case with me as I have the assembly in the GAC.
