We have multiline text box of datatype ntext, and users will use tabs to format the data for better readability.
How can we keep this formatting in SSRS 2000? Right now, it simply goes away and resembles nothing like the application.
Thanks!
Hi,
I need to add carriage returns into a text box of 3 lines.
The data is pulled from the BD so the "cariage return" symbol need to be in the database field.
I know that some reporting software give the option to add HTML code into textbox but I did'nt find out about ms reporting 2000.
Thanks,
Marco

I have a multiline textbox where users enter comments, then the comments are put into a SQL table, then a datagrid retrieves the comments from the table and displays them. The problem is when a user has blank lines between paragraphs, the datagrid simply puts the paragraphs together. I know I can use the <br> command to display the text properly in the grid, but how do I get the <br> command to store in the SQL table where the paragraph breaks would be. The paragraph breaks go into the SQL table as nothing more than several spaces. How do I get this to work?
Thanks,

Installed SQL Server 2008 with Reporting Services to a Windows Server 2008 box. Tried to open the Report Manager and had no tabs and no Site Settings link - just a blank home page. I am logged onto the server with local administrator rights, so it shouldn't be a permissions issue.
Thinking the installation was bad (IIS was not installed before installing SSRS), I uninstalled and re-installed SSRS after setting up IIS 7 on the server. Still the same issue - just a blank home page in report manager with no ability to add users or assign roles or see anything except the links for "Home", "My Subscriptions", and "Help".
I have a report parameter textbox in my SSRS report which has the parameter properties as "allow null value" and "allow blank value" checked.
How I can ensure that when the value is entered in textbox, it should accept any character ie. The SQL code I should write so that all the characters inputted via the report parameter are accepted.
Hello,
I want to put a textbox on the report such that the end-user can type in that textbox and then the text entered in the textbox could be captured by the report and could be used for further processing. Any pointers to this??

Greetings -
Am having problems setting a normal SSN xxx-xx-xxx format for a report textbox using the Textbox Properties / Format tab. The data is stored as text, and am using the "Format Code .... " option. When I choose "Custom" option, and attempt any formatting string containing the "-", the SSN is displayed without the "-". Nothing I have tried works.
What is the correct context string for this format?
Tks.

Hi!!!
I want to add a multiline textbox input to a SQL database. But whenever I am trying to do so, it's only taking the first line of the textbox. The datatype of that column in the SQL server i have given is 'nvarchar'. In the programming part I am taking the input in a datagrid and temporarily storing them in a dataset. After the user clicks the 'submit' button then only I am updating the record in the database. I am using SqlAdapter. Please HELP me out. Thanks in advance.
I am working in SSRS 2000, and I have a report using a table. In the footer of the table I want to do a calcuation. I have a textbox in the table called "SumAmtCurrent", which is a sum value for a field in my dataset. I have another field in my dataset, "TotalRevCurrent", and I would like to take this second field, subtract the value in the textbox "SumAmtCurrent", and have the result in the footer of the table. I tried to reference the textbox using ReportItems!SumAmtCurrent.Value - but that gives me the following error
"...The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox7€™ refers to the report item €˜SumAmtCurrent€™. Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope..."
Is there a way I can get this total into my report?
Thanks in advance!

Here is how I would like to format the PDF File:

St Address State City
14111 NC Test
12541 NC Test2
Page 1
For the second user I will have all the above template to be Repeated again

Test (title)
Department : B George Jebson
St Address State City
14111 NC Test
12541 NC Test2
Page 2
I could not make it to copy the title in the second page. This is what I have so far

I found this thread which allows me to write vertical from the bottom up but I want to flip the text 180 degrees and write it upside down:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=559933&SiteID=1
I tried modifying it and playing around with the TranslateTranform function but I'm really confused on how it works. I can get the first letter in my text to be upside down but the rest is not showing up. It's like it's being cut off or something. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thank you in advanced.
I have a problem.... I have a TSQL procedure that calculates employee overtime based upon days 1-5 of week being "in-week", and days 6-7 oweek being week-end overtime. The resulting data is then mailed to dept managers. My problem: for some reason the calculated colums are being generated at a width of 40 char per column. I somehow need to reduce the width to 8-10 characters per colum (this will eliminate the wraping that I currently get in my e-mails)... Any help would be appreciated... Thanks..Tom
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a report with two datasets(and two tables). They both have a field in common(a customer code).
I want the results to be one customer per page.
This isn't a problem when using one dataset, because I can just group by customer_code and page break at the end.
But in this case I need the customer info from the second dataset to be on the same page as the customer info from the first set.
Does anyone have any formatting tips on this?
We have developed client SQL Server Reporting Services reports (rdlc) that are completely dynamic.
Everything on the report itself is build from code.
There are a few problems in the formatting of these reports that we have not been able to correct.
1) Because of the way the data has to be displayed. we have had to use a List control with Textboxes and Lines within to give the appearance of a table.(Column headers are textboxes with background set to gray). Line controls exist between each column of data. We did this because we need to have nested lists in some cases to display the data.
The height of the listbox is adjusted to fit the contents within. The vertical lines between the columns appear broken with gaps between each item.
Is there any way to set the line height to automatically fit the height of the ListBox.
2) Another issue we have is with Texboxes. If there is no value in the Textbox, the borders do not show. CanShrink is set to false. Hidden is false. Is there any other setting or something else that could be causing this?
Hi all!
I would like to know if Conditional Formatting in Report Builder is supported in Service Pack 2 CTP.
Thanks for your time.
Hi,
Using SQL 2005 Reporting Services, with the click of one button in my custom report viewer, is there a way I can generate my report, format it into PDF and send it to an email address that is shown on the report itself. (Report run may generate 1 copy specific to each client...ie, I want one copy to email to each client, and not have to have the clients subscribe to the report).
Any idea?
Cheers

Hi all
I need Report Builder to format Certain Numbers
as Currency by default. According to the documentation
I need to set the culture setting in the report's datasource.
I'm using a SSAS2005 Cube
The Report Manager then let's me create the Model wich is used
by Report Builder.
My Question is: Where do I set the culture setting?
I cannot find it in the Cube and viewing the model's xml hasn't helped.
Any help will be dearly appreciated

I cannot find anything that would suggest it is possible to use a cascading style sheet when formatting data elements within a local report (RDLC). We created an HTML report using CSS and now want to generate the same report using the Report Viewer control along with our defined styles.
Any ideas?
thank you
This is a good one:
Same RDL, 2 different servers. I run the report on my computer and export to PDF, it prints properly. When the customer runs the report on their server (SSRS 2K5 SP1, same as mine), they get it displayed differently. The columns on the report extend to the next page and the lines are thicker.
Is this a formatting issue on the customer's PC? It uses standard fonts (Tahoma, Sans-serif).
Any ideas?
I have a "report" that is more like a form with a great many fields on it that are not arranged like columns. The data is displayed in text boxes. My problem is that the "fields" or text boxes do not always form a nice single line where they connect - at least in the displayed format (HTML4.0), but actually do in printed format. It looks like the fields/textboxes may have a varying width, and possibly height.
Is there any way to make sure that the width and height are static?
Thanks,

I am currently developing a report for users who insist on exporting to Excel 2007. When I export to Excel on my PC, the report formatting is fine (I am using Excel 2003), however, font sizing as applied in the report is lost when exported to Excel 2007 (i.e. font size 9 in the report is actually 10 in excel 2007). In Excel 2007, the data which runs onto two lines does not show up correctly - the second line is squashed below the first.
Any ideas on how I could resolve this?
