I would like to create a bar chart and at the same time display some text after each bar.
I guess I could just create some textboxes on the chart, but I have a parameter that the user can change to specify the numbers of bars (therefore the number of textboxes, and the location of the textboxes are variables)
Is there anyway that I could do this in reporting services?
Problem here. Trying to display database column information in a chart. Basically I have a dbase query that pulls different percentiles on transaction. So when I run the query, a number appears in the data for columns called 95th percentile, 97th percentile and 99th percentile.
Now I know how to filter the data in reports by a parameter, however I do not know how to show columns by a parameter. Specicially in a chart situation. So if I choose 95th Percentile in a parameter dropdown box, I want to see the chart for the 95th percentile column in the database, likewise with the other columns.
I am not sure how to show/hide these via a parameter when charting. Anyone have any ideas?
Has anyone heard as to whether Microsoft plans on updating the charting engine for Reporting Services? Right now I find the charting capability rather limited and would like to see richer charting capability. Is this a case where it is better to not wait for this feature as it will be way off into the future before this happens, or better charting features just are not in the scope of Microsoft's plans for Reporting Services. If either case is true then the best solution would be to purchase the full capabilities of Dundas Chart for Reporting Services.
I have a bar chart that displays the detail of a table with locations along the x-axis and number of employees on the y-axis. Is there any way to have the sum of all of the locations show as the final bar in the chart? (which would be the footer in the table)
Can SSRS be configured to use any third party .NET charting components or only ones that have been specifically designed for SSRS? I have seen a couple of third party charting software (Dundas, etc.) and while they are nice, they sell at a real premium and there are not many vendors offering SSRS charting. I was hoping for a bit better value and more of a selection to choose from.
I have a table which contains data regarding calls to the Help Desk, I want to chart this using a simple line chart in SSRS 2005 with the chart displaying the number of cases opened by the help desk each hour for the last 24 hours. Although our Help Desk provides 24/7 support, there are periods of an hour in which no calls are received. The issue I'm having is I want the chart to still display these hour periods of time even though there are no records created in the time span. I want the x-axis to display every hour for the last 24 hours.
Anyone have any suggestion on how I can accomplish this? The only idea I've come up with is creating a new table containing a list of every hour in a day and referencing this to build the x-axis...but it seems as though it should be easier than that?
Does anyone know if you can do polar charting with Reporting Services? I have a need to report the polar coordinates of an element and show the polar chart of the data elements. If I can't do polar charting with Reporting Services, does anyone know of a third party product that I can utilize?
I am creating a custom transformation component, and a custom user interface for that component.
In my custom UI, I want to show the custom properties, and allow users to edit these properties similar to how the advanced editor shows the properties.
I know in my UI I need to create a "Property Grid". In the properties of this grid, I can select the object I want to display data for, however, the only objects that appear are the objects that I have already created within this UI, and not the actual component object with the custom properties.
How do I go about getting the properties for my transformation component listed in this property grid?
What I want to accomplish is that at design time the designer can enter a value for some custom property on my custom task and that this value is accessed at executing time.
I 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?
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]
Hi,I have a sql statement: SELECT [ItemName], [Startprice], [Percentreduction], [Quantityavailable], [PhotoURL], [proID] FROM [items] WHERE ([featured] = @featured) but I would like to add in 2 more where clauses. One is AND (aswell as) the current one, soWHERE ([featured] = @featured) AND ([Quantityavailable > @Quantityavailable) ?(@Quantity available value set to 0)(is that right?)and also I want another AND which is taken from another column. i.e:WHERE ([featured] = @featured) AND ([Quantityavailable > @Quantityavailable) AND ([numberclickedin< *the number from the numtaken column*]) So I guess my 2 questions are:1. is the format right for my custom sql statements.2. how do I get the number from the numtaken column to dynamically enter into the third statement? Thanks,Jon

Not sure where to post this as it may be a form operation but here goes...I want to generate a custom unique identifier for a table similar to the Northwind Customers database (ie ALFKI, ANTON, etc...) which can be used as a descriptive identifier as well. For example, I have a Products table and I want to have my keys look like: CHR-0001-05."CHR" is my abbreviation for Chairs"0001" is the auto-incrementing number (in this case the first record of the table)"05" is the last 2 digits of the year recieved (2005)Can somebody please point me in the right direction? I'm having problems finding resources on the web relating to this topic (prolly not using the correct keywords for my searches)Cheers =)
Would anyone be aware of anyplace I could find some good information on creating DTS custom tasks? I've come across a couple of articles from SQL Server Magazine, but nothing too substantive... Better yet, if anyone has any success (great or small), I'd like to hear from you and hear some of the things you did, what your custom task does, difficulty. I'm just trying to get an idea of how much work I have ahead of me....
I want to create a top 20 product list from a few thousand products. I want the rest of the products to be grouped into 'others'...
I also want the products to be ordered by the facts in the cube. Thus the product dimension would dynamically change depending on the Time dimension thats being selected.
I've created a custom task in VB6 and compiled the DLL. wHen I run the task in DTS designer as a step it runs ok, however when I try to exectue the whole package nothing happens??
I was thinking of creating a custom generated IDs for my table. I would like the ID to be something like "HR001" or "IT001", the two letter prefix would indicate the dept it belongs to. Initially I thought of having a table that will hold all the seed values for the IDs but I realize that this could have some concurrency problems if there will be a multiple number of users are creating a record at the same time. So now I have totally no idea on how to deal with the concurrency problem.
I will not be using this as a primary key because I already have the Identity field to be my primary key, though of course this field would definitely be unique. I will just be using this to display in the UI.
I am showing my report in the web application using Report Viewer control.In the report i have start date and End date parameters.While running the report if i give startdate as '45/66/20007' it is displaying a message which is not user friendly.Is there is any way we can handle this type of errors and display our own custom error messages.
I am trying to design a Component which can be configured by a UI. After Configuration from the Design pane the Data should be passed to the back-end of the Component.
I'm wondering if there is any way in RS to create what Crystal reports calls Custom or Named Groups. This functionality allows you to define groups based on the values found in one of the fields on your report. For example, if I were grouping on a person's last name and I want 3 groups based on the first letter: A-G, H-P, Q-Z. I would want to keep it contained in one table.
First off, congrats and thank you to everyone at Microsoft for all of the hard work they have put into Sql Server 2005 and .NET 2.0 - it is simply amazing technology.
On that note, I was wondering if it was possible to create my own custom exceptions that I can throw in my stored procedures and then catch in my application code?
For example, say I wanted to create a Custom Sql Exception called "DuplicateEmailInSqlDatabaseTableException" and then, within a stored procedure where data is being attempted to be inserted, I could check for a duplicate email record and then throw the exception. At that point, I would like to be able to catch that exception in my C# data layer and work from there.
Is this possible? I feel like it could be but am unsure where to start.
