Using Multiple Datasources In A Dataset
Jan 30, 2007Hi,
I have to design a tabular report where the data in all the columns of the table comes from the cube, but for one column where the data comes from the ODS table.
Could anyone please let me know if it is possible to combine the results of the query from a cube with query from an ODS table and display together in a single report?
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated
Thanks.
Joining Across Datasources In Ssrs
Apr 3, 2008
is there a way to bring in oracle and sql tables into the same report and join them together on common fields? also, if this is possible, i am trying to join them in the native UI and not the generic query designer mode.
i am hoping that through fully qualifying the tables as you bring them in, that this may be possible.
any suggesions would be greatly appreciated...
thanks!

Configuring SSRS Datasources With Different Domain Credentials
Dec 17, 2007We are having our SSRS (Sql Server Reporting Services) Servers deployed in Domain1 to connect to the Domain1 data sources. Now, when we configure the SSRS datasources (which is in Domain1) to run under €śDomain2/User€? credentials , it€™s taking 60 minutes to render a report whereas when we configure the SSRS datasources to run under €śDomain1/User€? account it€™s taking only 5 seconds.
I would like to know €śWhy there is a latency difference while configuring the SSRS data sources with different domain credentials (Domain1Domain2)?€?
Any pointers to Support KB or any other related articles would be really great.
SSRS Report Deployment And Shared Datasources
Mar 12, 2008Hi,
I have got a quistion in regards to SQL Server Reporting Services 2005. We're currently using the SSRS in one of our applciations with 20+ reports. We need to deplaoy 2 instances of an applciation: Test and Production. These applcaitions are running off two different databases in SQL Server [DBName]_Test and [DBName]_Live. So far all of our reports have been written to use a shared datasource. This worked fine untill we had to deploy a Live instance of the application, where the shared datasource is overwritten with the live one.
Now we have manually created a new shared datasource called [DataSource]_Live. However, whenever we need to redeploy the reports from visual studio, we then have to go though each report and point it to a correct datasource. This is extremly manual process - and takes up a lot of time...
Surely there must be an easier way around this (without duplicating the reporting project in VS.NET / or having to modify the datasource fr each report manually each time)?
Thanks in advance,
Nick Goloborodko
Error When Trying To Create Datasources
Jan 19, 2006Brand new at this !
I'm running VB 2005 express edition installed from full MS download which included the SQL2005 express server V9.00.1116
Have used the Video tutorial (video 8 & 9) to create a database and have followed instructiions faithfully
Problem.
From the Data / Add New Datasource menu everything proceeds ok - that is a "dataset.xsd" file is created but then I get an error message
" Could not get type information for .........myfilename dataset "
and so the process is not completed properly and a datasource is not created.
I'm unsure what the type information is and have been unsuccesful turning up anything from the help files or forum so hoping someone can maybe tell me whats happening and how to fix this.
Thanks
SQL Server 2008 :: Populate One Dataset In SSRS Based On Results From Another Dataset Within Same Project?
May 26, 2015I have a report with multiple datasets, the first of which pulls in data based on user entered parameters (sales date range and property use codes). Dataset1 pulls property id's and other sales data from a table (2014_COST) based on the user's parameters. I have set up another table (AUDITS) that I would like to use in dataset6. This table has 3 columns (Property ID's, Sales Price and Sales Date). I would like for dataset6 to pull the Property ID's that are NOT contained in the results from dataset1. In other words, I'd like the results of dataset6 to show me the property id's that are contained in the AUDITS table but which are not being pulled into dataset1. Both tables are in the same database.

SSRS MDX LookupCube Expression As Dataset
Apr 7, 2008So I have this great MDX query that runs fine in Management Studio and I need to use it in a report. The statement contains a LookupCube call. I've tried everything but I am unable to get access to the fields in the dataset when I go to design the report.
I've tried adding the =" in the beginning and the " at the end. I've also tried escaping the " with "". Everything I've tried however never gives me the ability to access the 'PREV BATCH ELIGIBLE BALANCE' field.
Before you ask, I'm using LookupCube because the below code is just a piece of a much large MDX query. I just figured I'd start small and see how it goes.
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[PREV BATCH ELIGIBLE BALANCE] AS LookupCube("CLAIMS"," ([Measures].[TOTAL BALANCE] ,[CLIENT].[ATC Healthcare, Inc.] , [ELIGIBILITY].[TRUE], [ROLL_FWD].[TRUE], " + [Batch].PrevMember.UniqueName + ")") SELECT { [Measures].[PREV BATCH ELIGIBLE BALANCE] } ON COLUMNS, { [BATCH].[MyComp Healthcare, Inc.].Children } ON ROWS FROM [CLAIMS]

SSRS Dataset Query Takes 2 Hours To Run
Sep 12, 2007hello
I have been assigned the task to port some reports from Business Objects 5.0 to Reporting Services 2005.
The BO reports used data regions based on multiple datasets, which is not feasible in SSRS.
So I have to get everything in one big query. The problem is that the query runs for 2 hours instead of a couple of minutes with our old BO solution which got it's data from an access database !
is there a better way to do this ?

View 5 Replies View RelatedImages With Custom DataSet Passed To SSRS Not Displaying
Oct 17, 2007
Hi,
I'm developing an ASP.NET application that creates on-demand reports with Reporting Services 2005 in report server.
I use a custom data set that contains the data that I want to bind to the report, and I use a WebService to pass that DataSet to the reporting services to accomplish my purpose.
The query passed to the reporting services is:
<Query>
<Method Namespace=http://myNameSpace.com Name="GetDataSetForReport"/> <SoapAction>http://myNameSpace.com/WebService/GetDataSetForReport</SoapAction>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="True">GetDataSetForReportResponse{}/GetDataSetForReportResult{}/diffgram{}/ReportDataSet{}/MyTable{Fields1,Fields2,Fields3,..,FieldsN,Image}</ElementPath>
</Query>
This works well and all the fields are displayed in the report fine except the Image Fields, that are not showing (the red X appears instead of the image).
The issue is that all the data that is bind to the dataset is contained in a SQL Server 2005 database, and the Image column in the table of that database is a VARBINARY(MAX) field (I insert the image into the database table).
Also, when I created the dataset in .NET, the column type of the dataset I declared for the Image field was Byte[], but that didn't work for me. I've also tried to declare as the field type Byte,SqlByte,Image,SqlBinary, etc without succesfull results.
I've also tried creating a XML Schema, declaring the Image field as base64Binary, then do DataSet.ReadXMLSchema(myschema) and then retrievied the data from sql server and filled the dataset, Again, the Images doesn`t display.
For finnishing my unsatisfactory tests, I've also tried to handle the image data with a MemoryStream object:
MemoryStream mem = new MemoryStream();
MemoryStream oStream = new MemoryStream();
mem.Write((Byte[])dr["Image"],0 , ((Byte[])dr["Image"]).Length); //dr is the datareader used to read from the DB
Image image = Image.FromStream(mem);
try
{
image.Save(oStream, ImageFormat.Png);
}
catch{}
newRow["Image"] = oStream.GetBuffer(); //newRow is a row of the custom DataSet.Table passed to the SSRS.
But again, the Image is not showing.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for you time.

XML DataSource, Text Dataset And Image From Database Using Visual Studio 2K5 And SSRS 2K5
Feb 19, 2008"Short" Story Version:
I have a VS 2005 Web Appplication solution that uses SQL Server Reporting Services 2005. One of the projects is a Report Server Project. In this project I have an RDL file that has:
1.)a non-shared XML DataSource (no credentials),
2.)a DataSet with a Command Type of Text and a Query String that is as follows:
<Query>
<XmlData>
<Root>
<LOAD LOAD_ID_PREFIX="" LOAD_ID="" TRUCK="" DIAGRAM=""/>
</Root>
</XmlData>
</Query>
3.)a field that comes from the Database that is of VarBinary(Max) that is a JPEG Image
What happens is, is that by doing #2 above, at design time I can create tables and hook into my datasets and get the report all designed out the way I want. Then at runtime, I have a Stored Procedure that uses the "FOR XML AUTO" option so that I can represent my results from the database in an XML fashion which will allow me to replace the XML Schema in between the Root tags above (in #2) with my actual data (which still has the same schema). I then save the modified RDL to a database table field and move on to happily ever after......in this case, not. In this case, since an VarBinary is involved, unless I want to get a pointer back for the Diagram Column, I have to use the "FOR XML AUTO, BINARY BASE64" option. This returns an Encoded string to represent the Binary value that was in the Database....and this is the partial source of my angst....read on.
My approach that I described above worked flawlessly in all cases where an image wasn't involved. This report is the only report in the whole system I am working on that will have an image and it is the last one being done, so that's why I didn't run into this earlier.
I have tried all kinds of things at different levels, but the thing that I have tried that seemed to me to have the most potential was to use Embedded Code to take the Encoded ASCII Value and convert into something binary that the SSRS Reporting Engine likes (so my image will show), but I have been unsuccessful thus far. The error message I keep getting now from my Embedded Function is: "Invalid length for a Base-64 char array", which I have not been able to resolve thus far....and I do know that the Binary value in the database is good becuase I can see it in pages in my application otherwise.
This aside, is there anyone out there that knows how to take the value of a VarBinary(Max) field and insert it into the Text (XML) DataSet in the markup of an RDL file....and have it appear correctly when the report is rendered in something like the standard Report Viewer Control (or even when being previewed at design time inside of Visual Studio for that matter)?
Just to be clear, the root of my problem, as I see and understand it, is that I have a VarBinary value in a database that is being converted to a string (ASCII...I am presuming) due to how I am writing my stored procedure and then needs to go back to something else binary that the SSRS Engine will accept so that I can see my Image in the report when I render it.
I am wishful that someone out there understands my problem and has run into this and has a solution......but I am wishful of winning the lottery, too, and that hasn't happened yet...............
Thanks.

View 8 Replies View RelatedHow To Figure Out If The Dataset Returned Any Data Or Not While Rendering The Report Through The SSRS Web Service
Jan 12, 2007In one of my projects, i have been using the SSRS web service to render a report as pdf and then manually emailing it out.
I need to know whether the data set for the report returned any data or not (so that i can avoid emailing the report with a blank report body).
Ofcource this can be done by executing the same query (same as the query for the report) from C# code and checking the count of the resultset, before calling the SSRS Render method. But it might not be an efficient method.
Was wondering the the SSRS Web Service provides an property or method that can let me figure out whether the resultset was empty or not (after the report execution).

Can I Create A Database Schema From A DataSet And/or .xsd File?
Mar 20, 2007I have some questions about creating SQL Server CE databases. Based on my experiments and what I've read on these forums, it looks like there are a couple ways to create a database schema. I can edit the database schema via the Server Explorer in Visual Studio, or use an external program like SQL Server Management Studio and somehow convert those files to .sdf files.
I find Visual Studio's built in tools to be cumbersome to use and limited in functionality, and using SSMS seems like a roundabout way of approaching the problem. I understand Microsoft will be releasing better tools with Orcas, but in the meantime, I'm wondering if there are alternative ways to generate database schemas.
For instance, I find Visual Studio's DataSet designer fairly easy to use. The DataSet designer generates schema definitions (.xsd files), and an instantiated DataSet can both read and write schema definitions via Read/WriteXMLSchema. Furthermore, DataAdapter's Fill and FillSchema methods can be used to push a schema from a database to a DataSet. So, can I somehow go the other direction and push a schema from a DataSet to a database? It seems like all the tools are there...
For example, if I create the DataSet schema, could I use a small app to create a new .sdf file, instantiate a DataSet, write the schema from the DataSet to the database, and then save the .sdf file? Or given the generated .xsd file, is there any way to create a SQL database from that?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
