Greetings all
trying to get a multivalue parameter to accept either typed in data ex: 111111111,111111112 or if I want to return all id numbers type in %. Problem is when I test it by typing in 111111111,111111112 it throws an error saying " Incorrect syntax near ','.
I can enter 111111111 or % and get results, the error comes when I try to type in two or more id numbers. the parameter in the dataset looks like
where a.id_number LIKE (@id_number+ '%')
any suggesstions? Im sure there are threads out there but Im pressed to meet a deadline and wanted to see if there were any quick solutions
Hi. I am fairly new to reporting. I have a report that currently displays queried data in both a table and a matrix. I'd like for the data that is displayed to be based off of my report parameters. I have three, all of which are multivalue. Currently, I am able to display the report, based on the only the first value of TWO of the three parameters. I tried using the dataset parameters, but was not successful with linking them to my report parameters. Please help! In addition, is there a way to set multivalue parameters to only display distinct values? Thanks, in advance, for any help.
I need to set a label in my report when all the values in a certain multivalue parameter are selected. In other words, i would need to check whether this parameter has the value "Select All" selected or not. How do i accomplish this?
i am trying to build a report that uses multivalue parameters - the report is a simple listing report that lists out a list of cases as a table - the data is obtained from a view which just returns all details for all cases
there is no user input for the selection details - am going to be calling the report and passing over the parameter values directly to it.
there are several parameters for the report - they all default to "All"
for each of these parameters, i need to be able to either use the default value of "ALL" or to enter a list (comma separated ?)
q1) could i just enter the list as a string comma separated list (rather than as multivalued parameters) and then use this list to filter the data using the FILTERS tab on the dataset
q2) if q1 is not possible, if i use multivalue parameters, how do i get my list of parameters into the report as the application calling the report just has a list of values
I have a report (Say Report 1)which is asking for a multivalue parameter Period. The user selects three period from the dropdown list available for the Parameter. Lets say that the user select 0407,0507,0607. Now is this report 1 there is a particular field which is linked to another sub report. So if the top level Report 1 supplies the revenue for 3 regions say for the periods selected then clicking on any of the regions would open a second detailed report, say Report 2 for the three periods as selected.
Till this everything is fine.
Now the problem is that in this detailed Report 2 there would be a particular text box as "Click here to naviagate back to parent report". So that when the user clicks on this cell he is taken back to the parent report, Report 1 which was originally generated for the 3 periods.
Can anyone please advise as to how the Multivalue Parameter which was passed from Report 1 to Report 2 can again be looped back to Report 1 from Report 2.
I'm trying to output all the values selected through a multivalue parameter, but I am having difficulties. In the text box, the parameter contains only four member functions (value, label, count, ismultivalue). However, to output a value or label for the parameter you need to specify an index in the form of:
Parameters!Names.Value(0)
Ideally, I would like to be able to obtain all these values with a function call, but it doesn't look like there is one. Any ideas of how to get all the values?
Is there any way to restrict the user from selecting the parameters. For example: I have a list of 100 values in a multi-value parameter. I want to to restrict the user to select at the most N number of values.
If possible, process only the N number of values will also do.
I've created a line chart in my report which lists number of transactions by month. I've also created a report to list transactions by day. My goal is for the user to select a month and link the report to the graph with the selected month divided up into days (in other words, the user wants to see the number of transactions for each day in the selected month).
Anyway, everything is working perfectly except for one thing. In the list of parameters that I am passing to the report for each day, I want to pass a multivalue parameter which contains all the transaction IDs the user selected in creating the report (these are supplied by a multivalue parameter). However, in the parameter dialog box where it asks for a value to send to the awaiting parameter, I do not know how to supply more than one value. If I need to pass one value, it will work fine. However, I would like to do something like:
JOIN(Parameters!TransactionID.value, ",")
for the value of TransactionID, but when I generate the report it is not accepting the values. I'm pretty sure its just a format issue, and I just need to know how exactly I should pass these values.
I already understand that when passing multivalue parameters in a URL you need something like:
TransactionID=1&TransactionID=2
...in order to select multiple values. However, this is a slightly different situation. I'm really running out of ideas, so any help would be much appreciated.
I am using a 2005 SSAS cube as a datasource for 2005 SSRS report with multivalue parameters. I use the design mode query builder to generate my MDX. I then add my parameter to my parameter field in the filters section. The name and value of the parameter in the dataset editor is as follows:
I then proceed to layout mode and then open up report parameters. I then check the multivalue box and select non-queried available values. I choose non-queried radio button because I want my asp page to be passing in the parameters, not a dropdown list.
The problem is that when I try and preview the report and I type in just one parameter I get the following: "Query (1, 437) The restrictions imposed by the CONTRAINED flag in the STROSET function were violoated"
After looking through a couple of forums I found that adding the following Parameter value in the data tab and dataset editor would help me out a bit: "[Facility].[Facility Number].&["+Parameters!FacilityFacilityNumber.Value+"]"
Ok so now (in layout mode) I type in one parameter and I get a report back, BUT when I try to type in a second or more parameter I get the same error as before: "Query (1, 437) The restrictions imposed by the CONTRAINED flag in the STROSET function were violoated"
Here is the MDX query that I am using for this report:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Claim Count], [Measures].[Item Reasons Count], [Measures].[Charged Amount] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Facility].[Facility Number].[Facility Number].ALLMEMBERS * [Claim Status Codes].[CLaim Status Code].[CLaim Status Code].ALLMEMBERS * [Claim Status Codes].[Claim Status Description].[Claim Status Description].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@FacilityFacilityNumber, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Claims Remittance]) CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS
Please, if anybody know's what I am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate it.......I have to have my report accept non-queried multivalued parameters. Thanks
We have many reports with cascading multivalue parameters. The reports and the parameters work as expected within the BI development and when deployed to the RS server. The issue we are having is that when we go to the Report Manager webpage for one of these reports and create a New Subscription the report parameters in the subscription field fail to populate. The first one or two parameters may properly populate but the 3rd, 4th, and 5th fail to populate. As a result we can not select the parameters to submit the subscription.
We have two example reports where one report uses only sql (text) and the other report uses only stored procedures. Both reports have 2 or more cascading parameters.
Any known issues with cascading multivalue parameters in the Report Manager subscription view?
HelloI am trying to search 2 columns on a databsae table using a string put into a box, the code i have at the moment is SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(SqlDSFindPost.ConnectionString); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand ("SELECT * FROM tblBlog WHERE UserName LIKE @UserName OR Title LIKE @Title; ", conn); cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserName", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50).Value = '%' + TextBox1.Text + '%'; cmd.Parameters.Add("@Title",SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50).Value = '%' + TextBox1.Text + '%'; conn.Open(); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); GridView1.DataBind(); I have tried all sorts of strings and even typeed the string directly into the parameter but never get any results, yet when i type the wildcards directly into the textbox i get the correct rows returned. Can anybody see anything wrong with my code and tell me where i am going wrong, or alternativly point me in the direction of some c# code for searching a database similar to the search box abovei dont do a lot in asp or c# so this is driving me crazy Thanks for looking
I have a need to use wildcards in a sql statement. e.g. select * from tbl where field='%computer%'. How can I substitute the string "computer" for a variable declared in the stored procedure. Procedure Sample @Str varchar(50) AS select * from tbl where field = '%' & @Str & '%' (How do incorporate the wildcard variable @Str?
I want to replace the NNNYYYYMMDDHHMM with a wildcard (for example *), so that import will pull ANY .SDF files in, but it will not run. i get the following:
output ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DB-LIBRARY error: Bcp: Unable to open host data-file.
I need to replace the use of wild cards in my query with something else which achieves the same thing. The problem is the web application which uses the query does throws an error when using '%' characters. Any ideas?
The following statement appears in the where clause:
AccType.Value like '@Opened_By[%DIST%APP% as Distance and Business Provider, DIST% as Distance, APP% as Business Provider]'
I’m trying to use case statement in my view with wildcards for '%Tradies%', instead of listing all items
WHEN 'Tradies Rebate1' THEN 'Test' WHEN 'Tradies Rebate2' THEN 'Test' WHEN 'Tradies Rebate3' THEN 'Test' WHEN 'Tradies Rebate4' THEN 'Test'
At this moment '%Tradies%' does not work and gives me null values in EventGroup column.
Here’s my statemnt ------------------------------------------ CASE [dbo].[Event].[EventName] --WHEN 'Tradies Rebate1' THEN 'Test' --WHEN 'Tradies Rebate2' THEN 'Test' --WHEN 'Tradies Rebate3' THEN 'Test' --WHEN 'Tradies Rebate4' THEN 'Test' WHEN '%Tradies%' THEN 'Test' WHEN 'Install Products' THEN 'All Installed' WHEN 'Installation Product Conversion' THEN 'All Installed' WHEN 'Installation Products' THEN 'All Installed' WHEN 'BK 3' THEN 'All Bright Kids' END AS [EventGroup], ------------------------------------------
I have a SQL statement which is generated dynamically. I need to know what is the correct syntax for this
WHERE status = 'open' AND salesman = * AND dat = * AND customername = *
i.e. fetch everything WHERE status = 'open'
I know that simply WHERE status = 'open' would do the trick but I need it like the first example because of the way the statement is being generated i.e. this salesmen bit is like this.
If Salesman <> "*" Then sql2 &= " AND salesman = '" & Salesman & "'" Else sql2 &= " AND salesman = *" End If
Hi I'm using the full-text indexing on a table and I'm trying to implement a search where users can search for words and use wildcards themselves. However I'm working on a method so that can enter a wildcard in the middle of a word to get records where they are unsure of the spelling etc. For instance, a search of 'Ste*en' should return results like 'Steven' and 'Stephen' etc. So if they are searching for word 'establishment' they can search for 'estab*ment' and it should return all the records using this query: SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE CONTAINS(myField,'"estab*ment"') If I do a wildcard at the end e.g: SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE CONTAINS(myField,'"estab*"') I get the results I am looking for. But the middle wildcard does not seem to work as expected even though it is the syntax used on MSDN and other SQL info sites. Is there something I am not doing properly?
I have a stored procdure in SQL Sever that accepts paramteres. I am trying to return rows where parameter that is passed is somewhere in the cuustomer's name. Without the variable the SQL would look like this:
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE CustomerName LIKE '%Smith%'
I can't figure out how to replace LIKE '%Smith%' with a varible. I tried '%@CustomerName%', ('%' + @CustomerName + '%') and neither works. Any ideas? Thanks
ps my column's type is char(50) and so is the variable so trailing spaces don't matter.
Hi all,I am creating an ASP.NET site, and I'm having lots of issues trying to get wildcards to work with the following query:DECLARE @Status varcharDECLARE @AssignedTo intDECLARE @AppID intSELECT dbo.Issue.IssueID, dbo.Issue.ReportedBy, dbo.Issue.ShortDescription, dbo.Issue.DateReported, dbo.Issue.Status, dbo.Priority.Description AS Priority, dbo.Application.ApplicationFROM dbo.Issue INNER JOIN dbo.Priority ON dbo.Issue.Priority = dbo.Priority.PriorityCode INNER JOIN dbo.Application ON dbo.Issue.Application = dbo.Application.ApplicationIDWHERE (dbo.Issue.Status LIKE '%' + @Status) AND (dbo.Issue.AssignedTo = @AssignedTo) AND (dbo.Application.ApplicationID LIKE '%' + @AppID)ORDER BY dbo.Priority.PriorityCode When running this through query analyser I get the error:Server: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 5Syntax error converting the varchar value '%' to a column of data type int. Could someone help me understand this please?Thanks
How do Iput wildcards around a number in an sp ? If my user leaves BoxNo blank it will list all boxes
SELECT * FROM tblFiles WHERE ConNo =@strRMUConsignmentNo and FileRef like '%'+@strtxtFileRef+'%' and Subject like '%'+@strtxtSubject+'%' and FileDescription like '%'+@strtxtDescription+'%' and BoxNo like %+@strBoxNo%
My use of wildcards thus far has been limited to matching a givenstring anywhere in a column as follows:SELECT * FROM Table WHERE Column LIKE '%string%'However, I'm wondering if there's a way to do this in reverse. Thatis, is there a way to match the column anywhere in the string?Pseudo-coding it as:SELECT * FROM Table WHERE 'string' LIKE %Column%What I'm trying to match is network addresses. Most of the storedaddresses in this table are exact (i.e. ip-1-2-3-4.location.isp.com)but sometimes they encompass an entire group (i.e. location.isp.com).When an exact address is given in the code I'm writing, it needs tomatch any rows that contain its exact self or contain a shortenedversion of which it is part.Any ideas?-cyber0nehttp://www.cyber0ne.com
Is it possible to use wildcards with an equals statement? Such asSELECT * FROM Table WHERE City = '%' AND State='Ca'Bascially just stating where city equals anything...I know you can do it with a LIKE statement such as...SELECT * FROM Table WHERE City LIKE '%' AND State='Ca'but is that very efficient?The reason I want to do this is because I want to programmitcally set the city, so just ommiting it won't work Also, using City LIKE '%' seems to not include NULL...is there anywayto include NULL as well as anything else? Thanks for your help!
Hey all,I have a datagrid with populated by this query: SELECT TABLE_NAME, TABLE_TYPE FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE (TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE')I have paging, sorting and selection enabled.Now I am looking for a way to use a wild card as a placeholder for the table name in my select statements so I can use the valued selected from the datagrid.Example : SELECT * FROM %TABLENAME%TIAWOOHOO! my first post.
I have a really large table with many Proposal fields and corresponding approval fields.
Propose1 Approve1 Propose2 Approve2
Would it be good practice or even possible for me to select all proposal fields using a wildcard somehow within the select statement. If it is ok, how would I go about doing it?
