Local Reports
Nov 11, 2005Thanks for the info but I am interested in designing and running local reports in a windows form. I have not been able to find correct documentation on how you define a schema that can be used to create an rdlc file for design of a report that uses a datasource that is set at runtime. Specifically, I would like to use business objects that return a data table in a get method.

Using Local Reports That Hit A Database
Jan 7, 2008I have a bunch of reports that I need to display. I've designed the reports using the Report Designer. Basically what I want to happen is to view the reports in local mode with the report viewer, but have them hit the database to get the values. I've designed them all with the database, I just don't want to go through all the hassle of setting up a report server. Plus, I've got a demo later this week so time is kind of a factor. Is what I'm trying to do possible? I really need help as the demo is this week
View 4 Replies View RelatedLocal Reports Issue
Apr 29, 2008I'm having a nightmare issue with an application we sell.
The system is a three tier system.
We have world wide about 40 installations.
The system uses MS reporting services to produce reports.
All bar one of the reports are server based reports.
While the remaining one is kept local for performance reasons, as it prints a small label in high quantities.
Now this local report is working fine except in one sistuation.
One of our customers has 8 of our systems.
All 8 are clones. The client machines were ghosted to ensure everyone got the same. The databases all started off identical. The Server software is all identical.
However.. one of these systems is about once a week throwing an exception when it goes
to print this local report.
"An error occured during local report processing."
99% of the time it prints fine. Once the exception is thrown, the only way to make it work again is to quit
out of the application and reopen it, where upon it will start to work again.
All other information returned is soley stack traced from our program, pointing out the button that caused the report to attempt to render and fail.
Here in lies my problem.
I have had the client machine rebuilt from ground up.
The server software has been checked and is definitely identical to everyone else's.
I've taken a copy of their database and spent days trying to reproduce the exception with no success on our machines.
I've logged in remotely and spent hours working on their system to force the issue with no success.
I've also tried cutting the label down so that no fields are displayed, but the exception still remains...
The developers of the system have not been very useful.
The store staff are very fed up of ringing me and saying that big red error message is up again!
Any ideas would be highly appreciated. This has been going round in circles since december.
Do local reports show any more detailed logs anywhere, like the Server based ones?
Cheers
Chris

Whenever I access reports from MS CRM with internal IP i.e http://192.168.100.55:5555 within my network every default as well custom reports are working fine.
But the same when I access with Public IP i.e. http://209.199.X.X:5555 I am able to see the application in public i.p but the reports are not working.
Is there any way so that I can access my all reports from MS CRM in public IP.

Web Tests Of Reports Working For Anyone?
Feb 11, 2007Has anyone been successfull in creating a Web Test with Team System to test a Reporting Services report? I can record the test just fine but I can't run the test without errors being reported. I suspect that the session state has to be parameterized but I have no clue how to do this.
Why is this so hard? Why aren't there samples for this kind of thing? I've been all over the SSRS and Team Test forums and the MSDN site and can't find anything about Reporting Services reports being tested with Team System Web Tests.
Interactive Sort Not Working On Snapshot Reports
Jan 17, 2006Interactive sorting works just fine on my report until I set the
execution property to render from snapshot. When viewing a snapshot,
clicking on the column sort arrows will not sort the data I'm viewing. If I turn the snapshot feature off, then I get the interactive sort functionality back.
Is this by design or am I missing something fundamental here?

Reports Containing Drill Through Interactive Bar Charts Not Working Properly When Deployed
Feb 9, 2006Hi all,
Drill through bar charts work great in the report designer preview, but as soon as I deploy the report, and view the report in a webpage, drill through does not work smoothly.
I have to move the mouse around to be able to find a place on the bar to click through to the next report. Sometimes, I am able to click on the bar to go to next report, but then sometimes I have to click on the label, and other times somewhere in the vicinity of the label.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Unable To Deploy Reports From VStudio When Working In SharePoint Integration Mode
Mar 4, 2007Hello, I have a configuration where my SharePoint services are running on a web machine and the SQL server reporting services are running on a different machine.
I installed SQL SP2 and the SQL Server Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint by following all the instructions listed in €śConfiguring Reporting Services for SharePoint 3.0 Integration€? (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb326356.aspx).
My issue is that when I Deploy a report from a VS Report Server project by running Visual Studio on the machine where reporting servicers is running, everything works fine.
But if I try the same thing on any other machine on the network, I get a €śThe file you are attempting to save or retrieve has been blocked from this Web site by the server administrators.€? message.
I€™m sure I€™m missing something on the configuration but I can€™t tell what.
Thanks a lot

Local SQL Server Instances Not Showing Up On Local Servers Tab Of Management Studio Logon Screen
Oct 2, 2007We have a 64-bit VM server running SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server on this particular VM server has 6 local instances installed. On the Management Studio logon screen I can type the full name of the local instance and connect to it, however if I press the drop down in the Server name field, choose Browse and select the Local Servers tab there is nothing listed under Database Engines.
Any idea why the 6 local instances don't show up under Database Engines? This is preventing me from installing a vendor application because their installer looks for local SQL Server instances on this server, but if SQL Server won't even show the local instances then the installer doesn't see them either.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Craig

Comparison Of SQL Server Reporting Services To Access Reports, Crystal Reports, Cognos Or Other Options
Nov 5, 2007Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

Moving A SQL Server 2000 Database From A Local Drive To Another Local Drive
Jan 31, 2008Being a very novice SQL Server administrator, I need to ask the experts a question.
How do I go about moving a database from 1 drive to another? The source drive (C is local to the server, but the target drive (E is on a Storage Area Network (SAN), although it is still a local drive for the server. I want to move the database from C: to E:. Can someone provide me with instructions?
Thanks,

Converting Crystal Reports To SSRS Reports
Mar 27, 2008
My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,
Patrick Conway
Copy Reports From Other Users My Reports Folder
Aug 7, 2007Is there a way to copy reports from other users "My reports" folder? I am logging onto the management studio reporting services using an administrative account and I am able to view the reports from all users' "My Reports" folder. But I am not able to export them as an rdl file. I am able to export reports from other common folders, but not from the "My Reports" folder.
The reason I need to do this is some of the users have created some reports in one environment and the reports are available in their respective "My Reports" folder. I need to move these reports to their corresponding "My Reports" folder in another environment.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for your help.
Some Things Not Working In 2005 And Working In 2000
Mar 3, 2006hi
I had a view in which I did something like this
isnull(fld,val) as 'alias'
when I assign a value to this in the client (vb 6.0) it works ok in sql2000 but fails in 2005.
When I change the query to fld as 'alias' then it works ok in sql 2005 .
why ?? I still have sql 2000 (8.0) compatability.
Also some queries which are pretty badly written run on sql 2000 but dont run at all in sql 2005 ???
any clues or answers ?? it is some configuration issue ?
Thanks in advance.

ExecuteNonQuery - Add Working/Update Not Working
Jan 7, 2004I am writing a pgm that attaches to a SQL Server database. I have an Add stored procedure and an Update stored procedure. The two are almost identical, except for a couple parameters. However, the Add function works and the Update does not. Can anyone see why? I can't seem to find what the problem is...
This was my test:
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Update", cn)
'Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Add", cn)
Try
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserId", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = UserId
cmd.Parameters.Add("@FirstName", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = TextBox1.Text
[...etc more parameters...]
cmd.Parameters.Add("@Id", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ContactId
cn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
Label1.Text = "done"
cn.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
Label1.Text = ex.Message
End Try
When I use the Add procedure, a record is added correctly and I receive the "done" message. When I use the Update procedure, the record is not updated, but I still receive the "done" message.
I have looked at the stored procedures and the syntax is correct according to SQL Server.
Please I would appreciate any advice...

Error On (local)
Aug 8, 2006An error occurred in the system, and last operation may not have completed: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
The above error I get when I like to connect to a db for a wiki. It's on localhost and everything I found on the internet I tried. Remote connections are not relevant because it's local. Have I something forgotten?? SQL Server 2005, Asp.net 2.0
