SSRS Exporting To A Custom Excel Template
Nov 19, 2007Exporting a report to Excel has a lot of issues with appearance. As a result, I created an Excel template that I would like to use when the user selects to export the report to Excel, using the reportViewer toolbar. I haven't found any documentation thus far on how to accomplish this. Does anyone know whether this is possible with SSRS and if so can you please provide information as to how it is accomplished. I have created a similar post where my application code can be reviewed: http://forums.asp.net/t/1183977.aspx
Any help is appreciated.

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.
Custom Task - Custom Property Expression
Aug 16, 2006I am writing a custom task that has some custom properties. I would like to parameterize these properties i.e. read from a varaible, so I can change these variables from a config file during runtime.
I read the documentation and it says if we set the ExpressionType to CPET_NOTIFY, it should work, but it does not seem to work. Not sure if I am missing anything. Can someone please help me?
This is what I did in the custom task
customProperty.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
In the Editor of my custom task, under custom properties section, I expected a button with 3 dots, to click & pop-up so we can specify the expression or at least so it evaluates the variables if we give @[User::VaraibleName]
Any help on this will be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Boilerplate Activation SQL For High-throughput
Apr 9, 2007
OK, so assume I am recycling dialogs in my client code, and assume I am doing something similar to get a dialog handle in my TSQL. What should the activated stored procedure that is processing my queue look like if I am expecting thousands of messages per second? Assume also that there is a small bit of logic need to process each individual message? I am building for a high-throughput scenario and would like to get as much as possible out of each second-tier service broker server as possible before the aggregated data is moved up the chain to a master. The first tier is Express on a web server and exists primarily only as a forwarding mechanism.
Using Custom Code
May 17, 2007I 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!
Custom Code....
Mar 21, 2007Hey 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.

What Custom Code Can Access
Jun 8, 2007I 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

Custom Code Question
Feb 21, 2008I 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;

Writing A Custom Code Example
Oct 19, 2007
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
Nested Ifs In Custom Code
Sep 19, 2007Is it not possible to have nested ifs in a custom code function? I keep getting an error message when I try it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedCustom Code For A Parameter
Oct 3, 2006I'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?
Grouping And Custom Code
Jun 25, 2007Hello 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
$5,947.20
Customer 1

$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?

Bug With InScope() And Some Custom Code
May 30, 2006Hi 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

Custom Code Spaces Being Cut Off
May 6, 2008I 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,
Adam
How Can I Throw A Custom Error Code?
Jun 26, 2006I'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?

Build Parameter From C#/Custom Code

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?

Reporting Services Custom Code
Jun 6, 2007I 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
Include Custom Code Assembly
Sep 20, 2007
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!
Custom Assemly Code Not Working
Oct 1, 2007Hello 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.

Sql Server Custom Code Issue
Sep 12, 2007I created a report in SQL Server 2005 using SQL Server 2005. I added a custom code to the report as:
function getpiececount_parent(byval qb_prodcode as string,byval s_date as string,byval e_date as string)
dim conn as new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
conn.ConnectionString= "Data Source=xxxx;Initial Catalog=xxxx;User Id=xxxx;Password=xxxxx "
conn.open()
dim sql as string
sql="select query using parameters"
dim cmd as new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
cmd.connection=conn
cmd.commandtext=sql
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@stDate",s_date)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@edDate",e_date)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@qbprodcode",qb_prodcode)
dim retval =cmd.ExecuteScalar()
if retval is system.dbnull.value then
retval=0
end if
cmd.dispose()
conn.close()
return retval
end function
For the above function I added reference to the System.Data . The report works as desired when I execute in the VS 2005 IDE but when I deploy the report on the reporting server and execute it from there the function doesn€™t execute and returns me #Error.
Can any one provide some insight into it to as to how i can resolve this issue.
