Hi,
May I know is there a way to control the size of the parameter drop down box? In my current box, the width increase according to the option with label of the longest length, in which causes my report's width to increase out of my control.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Has the inability to change the width of the multi-select drop down for parameters been fixed yet? Even if I could at least make it default to be wider would be great.
Thanks.
Good afternoon,
I've designed a Reporting Services report that has a multi-value parameter. The report works just great. The only issue I'm running into is that the users are complaining that when they want to select the values, within the multi-value parameter box, they have to scroll it to the sides way too much. This also makes them select values by mistake.
Is there away to inscrease the width of the multi-value parameter box?
Best regards.

May be a kind of dumb question, but I have a multi-value parameter that I would like to give users the ability to select from in a SSRS 2005 Report and I was wondering if there was a way to adjust the width of the drop down so the user wouldn't have to scroll horizontally to see a full parameter item. It looks like it cuts off after about 30 characters.
Any help here would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Does anyone know how to control the width of the parameter dropdownlist? If you select "Multi-value" for the parameter (non-sp1 version) the parameter list is in a dropdownlist that is manageable in size. If you do not use the multi-value parameter, it looks like the width of the dropdownlist is determined by the width of the longest text of the returned parameters.
Is there any way to control the width of the dropdown?
Thanks
Rob
My value is approx 50 characters wide, the parameter drop down is only displaying about 10 characters, although I have plenty of room on the screen.
Also, in a multi-parameter environment, are there any controls on where the parameters are being displayed?
thanks
Hello,
I have a report where I'm showing a list of users to select.
When previewing the report, the width of the field is automatically set to the largest label in the dropdown list.
But when I change the parameter to have "Multi-Values", then the width is set to a fixed value and a horizontal scrollbar appears.
Does anyone know how to have a "Multi-Values" parameter, but keeping the lasgest width of the labels in the dropdown list ?
Thanks in advance
I have like 100 columns and most of them work fine, but some will not work. I need to select the columns with correct width for fixed width flat file.
Here is typical SQL statment that works for most of them.
left(RTRIM(A.City) + Replicate(' ', 25) ,25) as [City]
The above one is not working, but many other works fine like the address. Why would it work for some, but not others?
It works fine if I use any char, but not space. i.e.
left(RTRIM(A.City) + Replicate('*', 25) ,25) as [City]
I have a subreport on my main report, and the subreport contains a matrix. When I run the report, the subreport seems to expand beyond the width of the main report. The matrix itself does not expand beyond the width of the body of the main report, but for some reason it seems that the subreport does. The subreport does not contain any headers that might be messing up the width. If I cut and paste the matrix from the subreport directly onto the main report, and remove the subreport, it prints fine. But as soon as I include the subreport on the main report it prints with blank pages because the subreport expands beyond the width of the body of the main report. I have checked the width and margins on the subreport and compared to the width of the main report and all looks good. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Is there a maximum width for fixed width column?
I'm trying to read in a flat file (which, admittedly, has one very wide column), and it keeps breaking because of truncation when it tries to read in the file.
Any ideas?

Hi,
I've a report projects where each report has a number of columns and the spec is to have all the columns print-out on the same page. Is there a setting that will auto-scale these columns to fit to the page or will I have to edit the font size and widths manually on each report to fit to the page?
Thanks for any comments.

Hi,
I am trying to create a program that transfers tables to flat files.
At this point in time, I have suceeded in created one that creates delimited files.
However, I am now trying to create fixed-width files as you can do with the SSIS designer, but programatically.
Is there a way to programatically determine the width of a column from the source table? I can not seem to find any kind of function or member that stores this information or allows me to retrieve it.
I know what I need to change in order to set a width for a column, but I just don't know how to find the width without just asking the user to provide one.
I created a report with a school parameter for all our schools in SQL report. The school parameter gets it's value from a query. The report is generated based on the selection made by the user. If user choose school "A", report is generated for school "A" and if user choose school "B" report is generated for school "B".
I am using a centralized user id and password for all users. A report URL (report link) is sent to user to access the report.
Currently, from the school parameter (school drop-down list) users from any school may/can choose report for other schools other than theirs schoos. The content of the report is sensitive and we do not want anyone to see anyone else report.
I want to create a user based security, so based on the user id for school "A", he/she will only be able to see school "A" report but nothing else.
I was trying to accomplish this by creating linked report but it does not look realistic to create a folder for each school on the report server (which means about 180 or more folder for all our schools ). Does anyone else have better suggestions what can/should I do?
I have a requirement for the following SSRS expression ( I am using Report Builder 3.0). The end user will input a selection via a mutli select parameter (financial month/s), if all month are inputted then sum(Field1.Month1.value...Field12.Month12.value )/12 * 100 else if parameter.value =1 then sum(field/s.values for selected month)/1 *100 else if month.values = 1 AND 2 then sum(field/s.values for selected month)/2 *100 and so on for any combination of the selected inputs.
Put in simpler terms I would like to calculate a percentage from a field/s containing relevent values, based on month/s the user inputs.
I have a requirement to show Day of week in parameter drop down list in different order, actual order is Monday to Sunday (Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday,Sunday) in DayOfWeek dimension in cube.
But my requirement is to show Friday to Thursday(Friday,Saturday,Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday) in DayOf Week parameter drop down list and report table. How I can get this requirement done.
Hi, everyone
There is a table t1 with two fields, such as,
ID NAME
１ Ｔｏｋｙｏ
2 Xian
3 America
For there are full-width and half-width strings in the values of the two fields, I can not select and get the right records. So I want to transform the two fields ID and NAME, I fail to find the function in the SQL Server 2005. Please give me some advice.
Thank you very much!
Date parameter. I created a report that allows a drop down for a date range to be selected. However, whenever I preview the report, I get an error. I know my error stems from my date fields being in this format "201301" , and the "date/ time" in SSRS being mm/dd/yyyy on the drop down calendar in SSRS.
I know the direction I want to go in, but just a little confused on where would I use the convert or cast function. Would it be in the data parameter itself, or a part of the query before the @start date and @End date?

Hello,
How can I change the width of my comboboxes etc in SQL Enterprise Manager ?
I can't see which table I'm supposed to be updating and it's causing me huge problems.
(basically my fields are called things like Staging_EmployeeDetails etc)
I'm on a 17" monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 so this shouldn't be an issue, and all screens are maximized.
I've tried dragging the corners of the window, but it doesn't seem to let me.
As an example, I'm in the export wizard and I can't tell which rowto use when I query the data (See screenshot)
I'm not very familiar with sql server 2005, and am trying to create some reports for the first time. I created 4 fairly basic reports. Three of them work just fine. The fourth one is giving me fits. When I look at it in Visual Studio, it previews just fine - generates the correct data and everything. When I deploy it to report services, however, it gets squashed sideways, so that it is about three times too narrow. I've looked at both the body properties and the report properties, and they all appear ok when compared to the other three reports. The body width is set to 8.9 inches, and the report page size and interactive size properties are set to 8.6 inches.
Can anyone point me in the right direction, or am I going to have to start from scratch?
Thanks in advance...

Is there a way to change the width of the bars in a bar chart?
I know that there is an option to 'Plot the data as line', but for some reason this is greyed out.
Any ideas on both?
I have been looking over the forums looking for answers to the question that nails us all: how do you dynamically resize column widths? MS says: you don't. However, I have heard many people say they have found ways around it. I wonder if anyone might share those with me (and everyone else). Share the wisdom you have gained with those less experienced!

Folks,
We have some reports that have optional columns. We have them working very nicely, with the column showing or hiding based on values in the report -- works great.
Except -- when the columns are present, the report spans onto two pages, when exported to PDF, in width. That's understandable, as there's a lot of extra data, and exactly what we want. However, when the columns are not present, we get empty pages instead, because the report doesn't automatically contract back onto the size that fits on one page.
Changing the report to a Matrix won't work, as the hidden columns on some of these come as sets of three, where each column in the three has different formatting (different widths, format codes, etc).
Thanks!

Hi
I want to read out the max width of a nvarchar field of a resultset. Is this possible?
Hi,
I have a matrix object in a report that sometimes runs off the side of the page based on the underlying data. Essentially if there are more than 11 columns it stretches out my page.
How can I fix this? Ideally, I would like to show only the Top 11 results but cannot seem to figure out how (or where, or on what data element) to properly set a filter.
Thanks.

Hi everybody,
I created a multivalue parameter in SSRS 2005 SP2, but the problem is that the width of the dropdown list is too small to fit my data (I'd like to avoid scrolling horizontally).
Is there any way to configure this?
Thanks in advance for your help.
