View 2 RepliesHi everybody,
I'm quite new in Reporting Services and have the following problem:
I created a report which is getting its data from 5 different databases. For every database I made a subreport to get the data. In the preview and on the Reporting Server all the data is displayed find. Now I want to export the report to an Excel sheet which does work. But where the data from the subreports is to be shown it just says that subreports in table-cells has been ignored.
Another problem is that the way the report looks in the preview is fine - on the reporting server the columns are far to wide. I allready marked that the width should be fixed.
Some more information: in the main report some cells are merged. In these merged cells is the data from the subreport to be shown. The subreport displays the data in a table which has exact the same amount of colums (and the same size) the cells in the main report had before merging.
Thanks in advance,
Steph
I searched the list but did not see anything related.
I cannot open a file directly exported from RS in the Excel format. If I open the file in the Windows version and then close it, no need to even save it, I can then open it with the Mac version of Excel. The file size after closing is about 2K less so the RS program is adding something onto the file that the Mac version does not like. It will crash Excel when trying to open.
I cannot export the report as CSV as it will not correctly import into Excel on the Mac.
Is there a work around for this?
Thanks.

I am trying to get the contents of the Excel Files dynamically and dumping into the SQL Database using SSIS. Through WMI Event Watcher, I could find when one or more Excel files dumped in a particular folder and using ForEach Loop Container I was able to take all the filenames and pass it through Variables. But at the same time in the Data Flow, I have to pass each Sheet of an Excel File to the Excel Source control and export the data to my SQL Database using OLEDB Destination.
For that I need to get the names of each sheets in an Excel File and pass it to the Excel Source Control through variables. But when I give Data Access Mode as "Table name or view name variable" and provide the variable name in that, then it is giving an error message as "A destination table name has not been provided".
And at the same time, Since I was not able to provide an static Filename (as I am passing through Variables), when I tried to map the columns in the OleDB Destination, it is not allowing me to map the columns.
So all these things I should do at Run-time using Variables in SSIS. I don't want to hard-code any filenames or Sheet names. If any one of you have a solution, please share with me.
Thanks & Regards,
Prakash Srinivasan

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I am new to this sql server reporting server technology. I have a requirement like the table header should repeat in all pages of the exported excel's print preview. So I have created the header columns with fixed lenths as same as table's header in the page header of the report. Then only the Header will repeat in all pages of the print preview.
But the problem is when doing like this, many of the columns have been merged together. The report layout is ok. But cant sort the data. It says a message "This operation requires the merged cells to be identically sized."
In some forms i have found the header control's edges need to be sized identically with the tables' columns edges. I did it. But still the columns are merged when exporting.
Please help me out from this.
Thanks in advance.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi, there,
When I view the report on the web, everything is fine until I exported the report to Excel. Additional column and row without heading appear in the exported Excel report. I have no idea, where do these row and column come from as I don't have these additional row and column in the designer. These additional row and column contain the subtotal.
How do I get rid of these additional row and column?
Thank you.

Hi,
Whenever we export a chart to excel, the quality of the chart becomes very poor (blurred image and font).
The images look crisp when viewing from report manager and the designer.
Has anyone encountered and solved the same problem?

I have one issue left to solve before releasing my drilldown report to production. The report displays fine in report manager; however, when it is exported to excel, the color (Coral) in the last column on the right is bleeding into the next three columns in excel. I have looked at properties, sizing and searched the archives. Anyone have an idea how I can fix this to render properly?
We have a report that we do not want to be able to be exported to excel. Is there a way, just on one report to limit the types it is exported toDBA.

Hi,
I have exported a report to excel that contains an ntext column. The exported excel file shows "#Error" for the ntext column in some of the rows. If I see the same report in reporting services I don't see any problem. I have checked that this is not any issue with the length of the text. Could you suggest me something on this?
Thanks

I guess nobodys heard of this? I'm using DTS to transform data to Excel spreadsheet. I have a DROP TABLE `data$` then a CREATE TABLE `data$` the old data is cleared but the new data is appended to the blank rows of the old data. So if I had 5 rows before now I have 10. And the new data has 5 blank rows before it.
I've tried deleting the excel file & replacing it with a new one.
I've used the wizard thinking it was me but no good, it still happens.

Hi,
I have an excel spreadsheet with several sheets.
These sheets get populated with data from an external source database i.e. a third party application.
I would like to create a SSIS package to read the data in each sheet.
Please note that I do know how to create SSIS package to read an excel file with only one sheet.
Is there a functionality in SSIS to loop though each sheet in one excel file?
Thanks
Hi All,
For developing a report I'm using SQL Server 2000 with SP4 & MS Visual Studio .Net 2003. After expoting a report in excel format file, the size of the excel file is so much big that while openning the report file it seemed to be hanged the PC.
Is there any way to reduce the size of the excel in reporting services?

I have one SSRS report which contains indents but it is not included when exporting to excel sheet. Is it possible to include indents when exporting to excel?I have included indent in the textbox property of a field-->Alignment-->Padding Options-->Left-->Exp-->
=CStr(2+(Level()*20))&"pt"
This is working fine in the SSRS report but its not applied when exporting to excel.
My company has recently transitioned to a centralized Oracle database model.
For the sake of security, the "powers that be" have also denied any query ability to any central tables. They refuse to create views or any other open tables for people to query.
Instead, they provide a "tool" which people can use to download data - to Excel Spreadsheets.
In the past, before this "improvement" lots of users in the local plants were able to query the old system to bring data into spreadsheets for reports, analysis, etc.
Now the place is jammed to the hilt with linked spreadsheets - people do their "table joins" with linked cells and Excel VLookups (yuk). This is because the "powers that be" still demand that these reports, analysis, etc. be done.
I am trying to use SQL-DMO to create a table join between one of these Excel Data pulls and a MS SQL Server table in Excel so that I can join without VLookup. IS SQL-DMO the right way to go?
Has anyone done this? I think I am close, but I don't know how to use the SQL-DMO attached Excel table object I've created in a join. I can't see the object in MS Query. I am not adverse to doing the whole thing in VBA...
Here is another question. Most of these Data pulls using the "tool" (ball and chain, boat anchor) are done once a day or once a week. Would a better strategy be to create MS SQL server Tables that are dropped and re-written when the data is pulled into Excel? This would mean that the report worksheet does not have to import the Excel Data pull sheet to MS SQL when it updates its query.

I have a main report with some sub reports. I put the sub reports in a rectangle and selected insert page break before on the rectangles.
If I run the main report and then select export to excel the sub reports are called Sheet1, sheet2, sheet3
How can I change those sheet names ?
I tried setting the bookmark, label and tooltip but no luck.
If I only export 1 report, the name of the sheet is the name if the report.
So how can I fix this ?

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm just starting with SSIS and want to create a reusable package which imports from an excel file which can be specified at runtime. I can expose the filename of the excel file as part of the connectionString property but the sheet is the openrowset property which is a custom property and therefore isn't exposed as part of the external configuration. Does this make sense? Is there an easy way to specify the sheet to import at run time?
Regards,
Anthony.

select * from [excel sheet name$];
i also using open file dialoug to specify the excel book this book should be pass to the select command at run time

A space was added as the first character of the contents in the Left, Center and Right section of the Report Header and Footer exported to Excel. Example :
In the RDL, Header values are:
Left = "Product Report" ; Center = "Confidential" ; Right = "Page n of n"
In the exported report to Excel, Header properties (-->File.-->Page Setup--> Header/Footer Tab) are:
Left = " Product Report" ; Center = " Confidential" ; Right = " Page n of n"
Is there a way to eliminate that space character?
Thanks in advance.
