Display No Comment In The Text If There Is No Data
Oct 3, 2007
Hi all,
I have a report where I have to display State, Category Name and the text. Below is the sample report
State Category Name Text
TX Unanticipated High NT due to RADD clean up- drive replacement.
NJ Unanticipated SAR efforts (SEM configuration)
But now my question is if there is no comment in any other state I would like to show no comment in the text line. Is there any formula I can use in the report level that will take care of the issue. I know in Business object there is a formula you can create which is =If (IsNull([Text]);"No Comments Reported";[Text]). I need to know in ssrs there is something.
please let me know ASAP and the steps of doing that.
I have a field that contains some text. Each field will have none or atleast one comment in it. A comment can be a string of any length with *** on both sides. Ex: ***comment***
Declare @Test_tbl Table(TextField Text) Insert Into @Test_tbl Select 'Some text ***comment*** some more text' Union all Select 'Other text ***another comment*** more and more text' Union all Select '***Comment*** some text ***More Comments***' Union all Select 'some text with no comment'
I need the output be ...
TextField -------------- Some text some more text Other text more and more text some text some text with no comment
Ok so I got my insert statement to work properly from multiple text boxes and a button control. What I'm looking to do is once the customer hits the button and it creates the new row in the table I want to then display the recently created record. Currently when I hit submit it creates the record, but the screen then goes back to default. I can then go to another page that I created to browse the records and it sees that the record was created properly. I would like for the insert to complete and then for the recently created record to be displayed either with a pop up, on the same page, or on a different page that needs to be created. I've tried tons of different options, but haven't been able to figure it out. So what I'll do is show you the working code and if you could give me a little help on what code I need to add to accomplish the task. Thanks. <asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" Runat="Server"> <b /> <table style="width:100%;"> <tr> <td class="style9"> Enter Bug Title:</td> <td> <asp:textbox id="bug_title" runat="server" Width="420px" EnableViewState="False"/> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="style9"> Bug Tester:</td> <td> <asp:TextBox ID="tester" runat="server" width="420px" EnableViewState="False"/></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="style12"> Description:</td> <td class="style13"> <asp:TextBox ID="description" runat="server" Width="420px" Height="473px" EnableViewState="False" MaxLength="200" TextMode="MultiLine"></asp:TextBox> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="style9"> Severity:</td> <td> <asp:DropDownList ID="severity" runat="server" EnableViewState="False"> <asp:ListItem>Low</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem>Medium</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem>High</asp:ListItem> </asp:DropDownList> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="style9"> Project Group:</td> <td> <asp:DropDownList ID="project_group" runat="server" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource1" DataTextField="GroupName" DataValueField="GroupName" EnableViewState="False"> </asp:DropDownList> <asp:ObjectDataSource ID="ObjectDataSource1" runat="server" OldValuesParameterFormatString="original_{0}" SelectMethod="GetData" TypeName="DataSet1TableAdapters.bug_groupsTableAdapter"> </asp:ObjectDataSource> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="style9"> </td> <td> <asp:button ID="button1" runat="server" text="Submit" OnclientClick="button1_click" /> </td> </tr> </table> And here is the code behind: Imports System.DataImports System.Data.SqlClientPartial Class Default2 Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Dim objcon As ConnectionStringSettings = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("bug_trackerConnectionString") Dim str As String = objcon.ConnectionString Dim con As New SqlConnection(Str) Dim com As New SqlCommand("", con) Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button1.Click con.Open() com.Parameters.AddWithValue("@bug_title", bug_title.Text) com.Parameters.AddWithValue("@tester", tester.Text) com.Parameters.AddWithValue("@description", description.Text) com.Parameters.AddWithValue("@project_group", project_group.Text) com.Parameters.AddWithValue("@severity", severity.Text) com.CommandText = "INSERT INTO bug_tracker (bug_title, tester, description, severity, project_group) VALUES (@bug_title, @tester, @description, @severity, @project_group)" com.ExecuteNonQuery() con.Close() End Sub
How do I display numeric data as text string?? I need the report to spell out the number. 1 would read as One, 2 as Two ect. For example writing the amount on a check. Need to do in SSRS.
I have an HTMP form and for some reason, when I use a regular TextBox to display a field, Via an ASP conneciton to the database, it cuts it off when it gets to a " (A quote)
Example:
Field: Title Data: Where do "rabbits" come from?
If I try to pull that field into a regular html textbox it dispays,
Where do
Then if I change the textbox to a textarea it displays the entire field
Where do "rabbits" come from?
Is this a setting that causes this in SQL Server on the table.
I am new to SQL Server and am trying to learn these little differences.
This is probably an easy one, but its been bugging me.
If I have no rows for a particular table, is there any way that I can simply display some text saying something like 'no data available for report' ?
Similarly, I was thinking I could hider certain controls on the report if there are no rows available by using an expression in the Visible property of the control.
We had come a long way in implementing reports using RDLC and now we are stuck with the requirement to display RTF text using RDLC.
Is there a way to display a RTF Text in RDLC in a purely managed code?
The links mentioned below provides a work around solution to this but a part of its implementation is in un-managed code. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=551939&SiteID=1
hi everyone. i want to build a page that all datas,images will store in sql server. i want to display images,text from database in a page with a template (images left of the page,text near the image and like....,programatically) there will be very much data . about 500-1000 pages data. is this possible with sql server? can SQL server store big datas? if it is possible can you give me an idea.
In SQL SErver 2008, I have a text column. I need to display either 2nd word in the text column or 1st word in the text column based on certain conditions.
How shall i display either 2nd word or 1st word from a text field.
I have reports in text files, with the formatting and alignments all intact, and need not to be changed anymore. But then, if I were to display these reports using IE, the best choice I have would be using SSRS. But then, is there such a feature in SSRS where I can do that? Just to display these reports as they are?
Which suggests that if only one of the two multivalue parameter id is selected display the same (Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0)).
This works fine when i select both the attributes but throws an exception "Index was outside the bounds of the array" when i select only one of the parameters. Can anyone help me with that?
Also i want this report parameter to allow null i.e. if a user does not select anything he should still be able to view the report. In case of regular dropdowns i have added a <Null> value to the existing values and set the default to null. But in case of multi-value, it does not give an option of adding <Null>
(Note when I say "rich" text I don't specifically mean rich text, I'm refering to text with user defined bold, italic, numbered lists, colors, fonts, etc.)
We have a (new) system where we want a user to enter "rich" text notes into a single column using an editor embedded in our application (much like the editor I'm using for this forum) and have the notes displayed correctly in SSRS reports. We were thinking of storing the notes as HTML but I've just tried it and the report displays the whole HTML string, rather than marking up the text.
We are open to marking up the text using any mechanism, rich text, HTML, Word, etc. just as long as we can see it in the reports.
We also need to consider viewing the same notes via Crystal reports.
I have the following problem. My SQL Query that i wrote works but the result that is displayed in Query analyzer cuts most of my long text that I want in my result. The long text string is approx about 400 characters and the type is varchar of the field. Any ideas??

Hey guys, I have a Access adp that backs onto SQL Server 2005, its taken a while but tis nearly done.
Just one last thing to figure out.. and thats how to send a email. I had a look at all the Access ways and they just wont work out for this.
So I decided to use the server to send them, I would insert/update a row into a table which has a trigger on it.
The table has amoung other things a Approved and Declined column. Both at 0 Sends an email to an Approver App 1 Dec 0 Sends on further and App 0 Dec 1 sends back to the original sender.
All I really want to know is could a trigger execute a package or something that will send the email? (Yes thats right someone isnt asking for code for once:D meh must be winter in hell)
If theres any flaws in my idea please feel free to tell me (Saves me denting the desk with my head half a week and 10 pages of code from now)
And where do I create triggers:P (Will probly have found this one in BOL by the time anyone replys)
Sorry about this but I really have no clue about triggers.. seems the site doesnt like me searching for triggers 'This page was generated in 17.03 seconds.' :P
i have a comment column which is varchar(200). when a user types any say for example a couple of small paragraph with commas , colon, hard enter key.
when i run a select statement and save it to csv file and then open with excel, if the comments has comma then i get these info in separate column and if there is hard enter key then it goes into new line.
Is there a way to get these info in one column Thanks,
I've never used SQL for anything but simple copies and queries, and now I need to do something that's probably simple, as well, but I don't know how to start. I need to update values in a text field with new values from another table. I can do it individually with an update statement (Set [field1] = 'newvalue' where [field1] = 'oldvalue'). But I have 400 different values and a bunch of different tables that need to be updated, and can't imagine that's the only solution. I can make up a simple table that will have all the old values in one column, and the new values in the next. I need a statement that look at the old value, then fetch the new value from the table I made, and replace the old value with the new.
I've looked at various help files and tried to search for a solution elsewhere, but I'm not coming up with anything. I guess I just don't know where to look. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
I get this error: The data types text and text are incompatible in the equal to operator. when trying to execute this query SELECT id FROM users WHERE username=@userName
Plesae tell me the MSSQL Server equivalent of the below MySQL query .create table temp2(a varchar(23) comment 'male m');What is the use of specifying a keyword 'comment' in the column definition. Will it make any difference
I want to get the latest comment for each id based on the maximum createdDate and not sure how to do this, tried to do Max but it was still returning all the rows.

I have looked everywhere for an answer for this one, so if it's out there and I've missed it, sorry.
I want to include a list of instructions with a report that I am sending out to a list of subscribers (not Data Driven, each is an individual subscription). It seems no matter how I enter the text in the Comments box, the body of the email comes out as a continuous stream of text with no line breaks, which is difficult for the recipients to read.
Is there a way to embed line breaks as a minimum, but preferrably additional formatting, in a subscription comment?
I have a parameter value as shown below and this is dynamic and can grow
Example : 101-NY, 102-CA, 165-GA 116-NY, 258-NJ, 254-PA, 245-DC, 298-AL How do I get the values in the below format NY,CA,GA --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state NY,NJ,PA,DC,AL --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state
correct query that will fetch only state names and not the numbers.
inserted a record with an identity field I had a '-- comment' right Select @data = @@identity
This select failed - @data was NULL I changed it to SET @data = @@identity This also failed @data was null
I then change to the follow which worked - Why would the different form of a comment make a difference? I was the only one in the database, there were no other changes. I could make the logic block fail or succed by just changing the comment syntax.
inserted a record with an identity field I had a '/** comment**/' right Select @data = @@identity
Hi there gurus, can you please add your 2 cents on this design? We'rehaving trouble relating these tables in a diagram because of the keys.Is it necesary to have the references setup? I would assume yes so theforign keys can be setup.If you look at this link, you'll see our diagram. In Red are therelationships that we would like to make for referential integrity, butcannot because of the keys.http://rullo.ca/linktome/QuestionsDB.jpgOur goal in all of this is to have a facility wherin we can store aquestion, that has multiple names over multiple Languages. Forinstance:-Q1| QNameID = 1 | "Do you have a dog in your appartment?" | LangID =1(eng)-Q1| QNameID = 2 | "Do you have a dog in your house?" | LangID =1(eng)-Q1| QNameID = 1 | "-French - Do you have a chien in your appartment?"| LangID = 2(fr)-Q1| QNameID = 2 | "-French - Do you have a chien in your house?" |LangID = 2(fr)The difficulty is when we try and put this in the group details table.We don't want to outline the Language, we'd just pass the language intoa proc to retreive a specific group with a specific language.

I am setting up a data driven subscription to send out an email which includes a report. The Sql for the data driven subscription outputs the EmailTo, Subject, Comment(Body) and some report parameters. My issue is with the Comment (Body) field which I would like to format with CR/LF to make the email body look neat and readable. I've tried many different permutations of inserting the CR/LF, From concatenating Char(13) + Char(10) in which the email does recognize the Cr/LF to concatenating binary 0x0D + 0x0A which after the first concatenation of binary nothing else can be concatenated. Here is the code I've tried: ---~~~~~~~~ declare @iEndDate datetime set @iEndDate = dbo.fn_today() Declare @Account_group int Set @Account_group = 999 /* DECLARE @mybin1 binary(5), @mybin2 binary(5) SET @mybin1 = 0x0D SET @mybin2 = 0x0A */ Declare @CrLf VarChar(5) set @CrLf = CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) Declare @Str1 VarChar(255) Declare @Str2 VarChar(255) Declare @Str3 VarChar(255) Declare @Str4 VarChar(255) Declare @Str5 VarChar(255) Declare @Str6 VarChar(255) Declare @Str7 VarChar(255) Declare @Str8 VarChar(255) Declare @Str9 VarChar(255) Set @Str1 = 'Good Morning,' Set @Str2 = 'We are exposed by ' Set @Str3 = 'Attached please find the margin call detail.' Set @Str4 = 'Please let us know if you have any questions.' Set @Str5 = 'Thank you.' Set @Str6 = 'Please respond to:' Set @Str7 = '' Set @Str8 = '' Set @Str9 = '' declare @t table ( EmailTo VarChar(255), ReplyTo VarChar(255), Subject VarChar(255), Comment Text, Account_group Int, Trading_Account_Id Int, Broker_Code_Ky VarChar(255), EndDate Datetime ) insert into @t select EmailTo = '', -- isnull(bf.firm_email,''), ReplyTo = '', Subject = 'Margin Call Notice: - ' + Trading_account_name + ' - Exposure: ' + '$' + Convert(varchar(20), convert(Money, Mark_amount),1) , Comment = @Str1 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str2 + '$' + Convert(varchar(20), convert(Money, Mark_amount),1) + '.' + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str3 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str4 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str5 + @CrLf + @CrLf + @Str6 + @CrLf + @Str7+ @CrLf + @Str8 + @CrLf + @Str9, Account_group = @Account_group, Trading_Account_Id = trading_account_Id, Broker_Code_Ky = EGS.Broker_Code_Ky, EndDate = @iEndDate from fni_ExposureGovernmentSummary (@iEndDate) EGS join broker_group bg on EGS.broker_code_ky = bg.broker_code_ky Join broker_firm bf on bg.fbe_firm_id = bf.broker_firm_id Order by Broker_Group_Name, Trading_account_Name select top 2 * from @t

The Email my company is using is Lotus Notes.
The Question is how do I code the the Comment field so that my email will recognize the Cr/LF.
