I am have a reporting server which connects to a analysis server which connects to a sql server and a db2 server. I am using windows integrated security all the time except for the DB2 connection. That is a fixed username/password.
Reporting server (RS), analysis server (AS) and sql server are all on the same machine.
I created a local group and added the correct users to it.
I gave that group browse rights on the reports so that works correctly.
I created a role in AS and added that group to that role. Gave all read rights to that role.
I created a login for that group on the SQL server and gave that group db_datareader role.
When I connect as an administrator every reports runs fine.
When the test user connects they can browse the reports but the drop down boxes for the parameters are empty.
Hi, I can't seem to get this where clause to function as I wish.. must besomething simple but I can't see it!have triedac.coursename like CASE @course WHEN null THEN '%' ELSE '%' + @course + '%'ac.coursename like CASE @course WHEN '' THEN '%' ELSE '%' + @course + '%'ac.coursename like CASE len(@course) WHEN 0 THEN '%' ELSE '%' + @course +'%'All work fine when I enter something in the parameter, but not when I leaveit blank! Any ideas why this is the ...case?Cheers!Chris
Several people have asked about this, but I have not seen a response that works. I have several parameters that I want to use as filters. If a particular filter parameter is not entered, the report should not apply a filter on that criterion. It works fine to create a single value parameter which allows null, and use the following in SQL:
WHERE ( [Field1] = @Field1_Filter OR @Field1_Filter IS NULL )
How can the same effect be achieved for a multi-value parameter? If you try to create a multi-value parameter which allows null, the report builder gives an error. I can't use "allow blank value" because some of my parameters are integer parameters. Without the allow null, the report generator requires me to enter at least one value. So I don't know how you can get a value of "not entered" into a multi-value parameter.
I also don't know how you would check for the "not entered". Someone suggested the following SQL:
WHERE ( [Field1] IN (@Field1_Filter) OR @Field1_Filter IS NULL )
This generates an error when generating the report if multiple values are entered for the parameter (the normal condition). The error is " An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near ',' ".
Hi,I run a stored procedure with a parameter given from a text box in an accessadp. If the text box is empty then what is passed to the parameter? I can'tseem to get it to flag up as either null, or 0 length.Any tips?Cheers,Chris
I have a parameterized report based on a MDX query (so no drag and drop of filters and fields). Now i have to ad a parameter. So i open the query parameter dialog box and i ad my parameter. when i click ok , my dataset becomes empty , resulting in an error on my report saying that the fields on the report cannot by found and should be in the scope of the dataset.
Has anyone experienced this problem before, or am i forgetting something here?
If a sqldatasource is programed to send textbox1.text to a stored procedure, and the .text property is left empty, and there is no default value set for the parameter, what exactly is the stored procedure receiving?I would like to run a IF BEGIN statement on the value of the parameter in the stored procedure but the following does not work:IF @Parameter IS NULL BEGINor IF @Parameter = '' BEGINThe only way I've gotten it to work is if I set the default value of the parameter being sent to a specific alphanumeric value. Then do something like:IF @Parameter = '99' BEGIN<Code Here>END
Hi, I'm pretty new to ASP.NET and VB, but I'm working on a project which is essentially a staff directory. Using VS 2005, I've setup a basic grid view which connects to an object which connects via a data layer to a SQL database with Name, Surname, Email, Extension No and Department fields. I have it working so that if a user enters a name and surname for example, it will return all records with either the name matching or surname matching input parameters. What I want to do is to set up a SQL query which is: SELECT * FROM records WHERE (Name LIKE @Name) AND (Surname LIKE @Surname) AND (Email LIKE @Email) AND (Dept LIKE @Dept) so that if the user only enters the first name and surname for example as above, it ONLY returns the record which matches the first name and surname and not all records with either/or. One way I've thought of to do this is to convert the empty fields to "Nothing" so that it fullfils the search parameter for the empty fields. If someone can explain how to do this, or can suggest a better way, I'd be grateful. Cheers, Tom
Hi, I am doing a report in which i have to create Wall chart kind of layout and for that i have to place Text Boxes on the report at run time.Now In my Layout i have some Text Boxes which are going Out of the page(Starts from page 1 and Ending on page 2)but when i am looking my report in the Print Preview the Report Viewer is shifting the entire Text Box to Page 2. Can i do something to print the report as they are seen in the Normal layout.
I have a store procedure that pulls info for a meeting coming up. They can choose their meal choice which in this case is fish, chicken, beef. What is happening on the report, it's listing each person 3 times with each choice no matter which is was. How do I correct this? Code below:

Wondering on how to script over the passwords from one 2000 box to another. We are cutting a box over from dev to production and need to copy userids and passwords from another box.
I follow sql coding for cascading combo boxes that populates them if the first one populates the cdname the second one should populate the cd group and the third one the composers with the songs or the samthing with music hymnals. I am trying the steps they aren't populating. Where are simple books on this?
Hi, i have created a database in VB05, i have a form and a few combo boxes. I am a total newbie to this so i only know the total basics.
two tables i have are Ratings and films.
Ratings: RatingID Rating
Films: filmID Title ratingID
above are the columns of my tables.
what i am trying to do is select a rating on the first combo box which will then only show the titles with that rating in the next combo box.
I have the whole database created, i have the relationships in place and the combo boxes are all connected to the datasources etc. The comboboxes are currently filled with data by the default sql query which is created. But it is showing the whole data for each when i only want to show the film titles for what rating is selected.
I have created several reports using sql server that have the end user enter a start and end date to run the query. I was just wondering if there was a way to just have a drop down/combo type box instead so the user could just pick the date instead of having to type one in.
I am a 2 node active/passive 2003 cluster. I have some maintenace where I need to shut down both of the servers at the same time.
Has anyone experience any issue in this approach?
I am planning to take the cluster offline and then shutdown the servers and bring it online after the reboot. I am also running SQL so any concerns or tips as what would be the best scenario.
hi , In my database I have table with column of datatype nvarchar in which I am writing the address of users.Now address field in aspx page is multiline because of which my address contains characters and . These special characters are getting inserted in database as square boxes. Is their any way to avoid it. Also the constraint is that I don't want to replace or by space before writing contents to database. Please write to me any solutions u are having. thanks in advance. Thanks and regards, Nita Jadhav.
I would like a form that has 3 text boxes. These 3 boxes are going to be used for entering search criteria. The first box is for searching a field called CasePK. The second is for searching a field called LinePK and the third is for searching a field called DOS. DOS is a date field. The other two are text fields.I am using a SQLDATASOURCE and a Gridview. What will the SelectCommand look like so that I can search the 3 fields using the data from the textboxes?
Howdy all. I have a query with bizarre results in Query Analyzer.
Box1; 4 x 3.0 processors, 4 gigs of RAM. Results never come back. Box2; 8 x 3.0 processors, 16 gigs of RAM. Results never come back.
Both of the above boxes are extremely under utilized. The absolute max amount of CPU being used is 25%. Box1 had 1 gig free RAM and Box2 had 7 gigs free RAM.
Box3; 1 x 3.0 processor, 1 gig of RAM. Results in 15 seconds. Box4, all the same as box 3.
I took a backup of the DB and restored it from box to box to box, so I know everything is identical.
I once had a deadlock issue where I had to use the maxDop hint and tried that here, but it didn't help.
I need to create forms for my users containing boxes and lines. When I get the boxes/lines looking correctly for PDF printing, they look really whacked out in HTML view. I understand this is caused by overlapping objects (lines on top of boxes, etc.) I tried a test to see if I could use all lines. This is VERY difficult to get aligned correctly for HTML view. Once I got my test completed, the HTML looked ok -- not great, but the PDF rendering looked REALLY bad.
Is there a way to overlap objects and tell the package to 'group' all the objects as one (like in Word) for HTML rendering? I need to put a karge rectangular box with lines and textboxes on top of it.
I have three text boxes firstname, lastname, dob. It is set up to do a like search on the the text boxes. If a user wants to do a search for just the last name it will not work. You must type in something in all three boexes. Doesn't anybody know how to correct this. Here is the code. Thanks.

Hi,Hope if someone can help me here. Keep in mind I an fairly new to .NET and SQL and am learning to break my MS Access habit :) I have a web form that is using a SqlDataSource and a FormView control. In addition to this I have 2 text boxes. What I am trying to do is display results in the FormView based on what a user types into one of the Text Boxes (one or the other…Not both)
The SELECT statement in the SqlDataSource looks like this in concept. SELECT Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4FROM dbo.MYTABLEWHERE (Field1 = @Field1) AND (Field2 IS NULL)OR (Field2 = @Field2) AND (Field1 IS NULL)
I have the two text boxes pointing at the parameters (@Field1 and @Field2) so in theory I would expect that when a user populates one of the text boxes and clicks a button to databind the FormView it would display a record matching that criteria…. But it’s not all I get is a blank/missing FormView. I tried different variations on the SQL statement and tried using = '' instead of IS NULL but still the same results. However, if I populate one text box with a value that I know is not in my table and populate the other with a value of which I know exists in my table is…It works.What am I missing?
how visibility can be toggled between two textboxes in ssrs? For example if textbox1 is visible and textbox2 is hidden initially and textbox2 should be visible when clicked on textbox1 and textbox1 should go invisible when textbox2 is shown... and then again when clicked on textbox2, textbox1 should be visible and textbox2 should go invisible.In a short, it is like switching visibility between 2 textboxes... A click on first textbox should display the second textbox and another click on second text box should display first text box.I cannot provide parameter as it is not there in the requirement. how to toggle the text within a single text box to fulfill above requirement...
I have a package designed and working correctly for months now. My challenge now is to run this package on a box that does not have SQL 2005 SSIS install. It has SQL 2000 installed.
My question is - Can I compile the SSIS into EXE or any other kind of DTS package to run on a none-SQL 2005 box?
Several textboxes are being on a web form for date entry. and we want to allow the user to leave date fields blank (if particular date is unknown). However, when the field is left blank, the SQL Server 2000 database defaults to 1/1/1900 (datatype = datetime).My question is as follows: How is it possible to leave a date textbox field blank, and either send 00 0 000 or spaces to the SQL Server 2000 database datetime field?Any advice/insight is appreciated! Rob
I inherited some SQL 2005 server boxes with NO CDs to be found...Is there any easy way to verfiy if these SQL boxes were trial edtions or full licensed production version...?
Hi folk.. can some body help me with this problem..???
I have a grid view on a form which has got colums which are set as data combo boxes. and a third column whish is set to a text box. all the 3 controls on the datagrid view are bound with sql server table. they are asociated with two saparate tables within 1 database... now what i want is that the user of the application can select either combo box 1 of teh 2nd combo box. and automatically the syncronize and also the text column asociates with related data..
for example
Country City Pincode India vasco 403802
now while flling the grid vew.. the user can select either country or city.. automatically both syncronize with related data and so does the text box.
I have a user table with Label and value fields where i would like to control the display of the text boxes based on the values selected in my user table.Can we adjust the text box positions dynamically based on the user table values.
Ex: Table
Label1 Field1 Label2 Field2 Label3 Field3 ID 100 Dept Sales
Report Design :
Label1: ID Field1:100 Label2: Field2: Label3:Dept Field3:Sales
Expected Result :
Label1: ID Field1:100 Label3:Dept Field3:Sales
In my table i don't have values for Label 2 & Field 2 , can we adjust the spacing conditionally to be utilized by Label3 & Field3 in SSRS.
Note : Above mentioned data is just for an example and in my actual report i can have more than 3 columns and report is looking ugly with all the spacing if i don't have data in all the fields.
Hello, since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.
I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest] @Name nvarchar(20)= ''
AS BEGIN
declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);
SET NOCOUNT ON set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table' if (@Name <> '') begin set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + '''' end EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery end
Inside my business Intelligence Project I created: -the shared data source with the connection String - a data set : CommandType = Stored Procedure Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.
Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter... So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name allow blank value is checked and is non-queried
the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!
