Ssrs 2008 export to csv file display issue

In a new SSRS 2008 report, I would like to know if there is a way to automatically expand the width of some of the rows when the data is exported to a CSV file so the data is displayed correctly. Here are examples that I am referring to:
1. In one column where there is suppose to be a date that looks like 12/11/2014, the value of ########## is displayed. The value of 12/11/2014 is what is setup in the SSRS formatting option.
2. In a number field that is suppose to look like 6039267049 the value that is displayed is 6E+09.
Basically if I manually expand the width of the columns that I am referring to above, the data is displayed correctly. Thus can you tell me what I can do so that the data is disaplayed correctly in the CSV file and ther user does not need to manually expand
the column to see the data?

Hi wendy,
After testing the issue in my local environment, I can reproduce it when use Excel to open the csv file. As per my understanding, there is no width when we export the report to csv, Excel is just using the default cell sizes when we open the csv. So when
a date value is wider than the default cell size, it would be displayed as ##########. When a number value is wider than the default cell size, it would use Scientific format.
As to the date value, we can use the expression =cstr(Fields!Date.Value) to replace the former one =Fields!Date.Value. In this way, the width of the value is narrower than the default cell size, so that the date value can be displayed correctly. For the
number value, it already narrow down the width with Scientific format. Or we can Select all the cells in the csv file, then click Format| AutoFit Column Width to change all the cells width to fit its corresponding values in Excel level.
Besides, we can try to export to excel instead of csv. Excel format can inherit the column width in the report. So in this way, we can directly change the width to fit the values in Reporting Services level.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

PDF file displays different number of text blocks in Acrobat Pro CC 2014 and CS6 versions

Hi,
I've inherited a file at work that displays different numbers of text blocks, depending on the version of Acrobat Pro used to view the file. Here's the specific issue:
As viewed in CC 2014:
"Chapter 1 - Chapter One Title": Appears as two text blocks -- one for "Chapter 1 - " and one for "Chapter One Title"
As viewed in CS 6:
"Chapter 1 - Chapter One Title": Appears as a single text block -- "Chapter 1 - Chapter One Title"
This occurs only with regard to single-digit chapter numbers that are whole numbers. So:
Chapter 1, Chapter 5, and Chapter 7 entries appear as two blocks in CC 2014, one block in CS6.
Chapter 2.0, Chapter 6.1, Chapter 10, entries appear in single blocks in both CC 2014 and CS6.
The PDF file was created -- I believe -- through the save-to-PDF feature in Word 2010.
Any idea what's happening here?
Thanks.
David

First of all, there is no such thing as Acrobat CS6 or Acrobat CC 2014. We assume you are referring to Acrobat X and Acrobat XI respectively.
Secondly, how are you determining how many text blocks are in the PDF file? By use of the text touchup/edit function in Acrobat? If so, how this edit function displays text doesn't necessarily correspond to the actually underlying text fragments in the PDF file. In fact, sometimes it combines fragments based on heuristics. Those heuristics have varied with different version of Acrobat.
PDF as a file format doesn't know the context of the graphical objects such as text. There is no concept of a line, a sentence, a paragraph, a column, etc. in terms of text. Runs of text are context-insensitive. You will get “breaks” when switching between regular and italics or when unusual paragraph justification is involved.
Is the actual problem in trying to edit the text or something else?
If you post a file, and indicate what text we should look at, we can confirm what is actually going on in your file.

As Jogn said you would have to use the planning connection. The smart lists used in planning are not in Essbase. Essbase stores the smartlist ID number not the text value.

Randomly, text messages I send with my new iPhone 4S are delivered as all squares instead of text. Any idea how to fix this issue?

Randomly, text messages I send with my new iPhone 4S are delivered to the recipients as all squares instead of regular characters. I have heard other people complain about this too. Any idea how to stop it or why it is happening? Hardware issue?

There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage. There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

Little squares instead of text in the store

I upgraded to itune9 this morning, and most of the text in the store, except artists' names, are little squares. the fonts i have are strictly only XP pro and oed fonts. i never had helvetica to delete. like someone on a similar but different thread, i assume it'll get fixed someday if no one with xp can read the store, but i'd like an answer sooner.
thanks

On my Vista Ultimate system, I managed to work around the issue by switching the display language back to English instead of French. I have other Windows accounts on the system. Those with French as their display language have the same issue. This is just a workaround: I can't use my system in French and make purchases on iTunes. Their is a flaw in iTunes 9.
I am not sure this is applicable to a Windows XP system which is not multi-lingual from the ground up.
I was very disappointed by Apple's phone support (I have an Apple Care contract for my iPod). The first customer service representative instructed me to completely remove et re-install iTunes. I did it but it didn't solve the issue. When I called back, the second customer service representative was very quick to blame my computer hinting at some plugins that would prevent the correct display of the iTunes Store. I think this is a very poor response to a genuine issue of a customer.

PDF file displays boxes instead of Japanese characters

Hi,
I am creating PDF files with a custom third-party set of sortware tools (Infragistics NetAdvantage).
This particular PDF document contains Japanese text using the Meiryo font and this font is embedded into the PDF file. It works fine in Windows (using the Adobe Acrobat Reader application), even on a machine where Meiryo is not installed.
But when viewed on the iPad, the text is displayed as a bunch of empty boxes.
Also, I'm not sure if it's related, but when viewing the same document on Window XP using FoxIt (instead of the Adobe Acrobat Reader), the text is not shown at all - there's just an empty space and not even boxes.
I would love to attach a sample PDF file here, but I don't see any way to do that... is there a way to attach files to these questions?

So the empty boxes are indeed shown by built-in preview, and Adobe Reader is also not able to render the content and it appears as blank.
After investigation , it turns out that system fonts on ipad does not have the required glyphs ( ~ symbol ) to render these characters. This is Apple’s bug and you may have to report this issue , indicating that it is not rendered in Preview / i-books on the ipad.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks,

Sharepoint lookup column displaying ID instead of text value in PowerPivot window

HI
I exported the datafeed into the PowerPivot. However, the lookup columns that appear in the PowerPivot shows the ID of the value, instead of the text value. How do I get the values to appear in the PowerPivot instead of the ID.

Cally, is this still an issue?

BEx Wad 7.0 displays key instead of text when text value is blank

Hi,
I have a query which behaves differently in BEx Analyzer and in a Web Template. I have a characteristic which is set to display text and key. The key is "100" and the text field is not filled out in the text table of the characteristic for key value "100".
In BEx Analyzer, the text field shows a blank value. However, in WAD the text field displays the key which is "100". I need to display the text field as blank in WAD, but it seems like this is not possible. Do you know a way to achieve this?
I need to export to Excel from WAD, so I guess javascript will not be a proper solution.
Thanks!
Best regards,

Workbook refresh displays key instead of text

Hi,
We are on NW2004S rampup. Our support pack level for Quality environment is 7. When we execute the workbook in management cockpit in transaction UMM_PRES, the calendar month is displayed as text. When we refresh workbooks, the calendar month changes from text to key., like from Jan 2006 - May 2006 to 01/2006 - 05/2006. This happens for every refresh. On the other hand when we log back and display, text is shown and with every subsequent refresh key is displayed. This does not happen in Quality system under 3.0b version. My search on OSS notes does not get any relevant one. Anyone having similar experience?
Thanks.
Param

Hi David,
I am able to get the result as text only after each refresh. This is made possible as follows:
In RSD1, I changed the following under BEX tab.
Display changed to Text
Text type changed to medium type
The Text type is new one in 2004S as compared to 3.x.
Tnx.

Hallo Mishra,
Do You want to show data in excel ? or you want to show data in Table UI or ALV
If it is excel then you can use Office Control UI and bind XSTRING for the dataSource property.
if you have to choose between Table UI and ALV then i would choose ALV.

PNG file displays white instead of clear

This is strange that png file that has an clear spot (alpha) would not display it in FCP 5.14. It shows white. If I erase portion of the file with an eraser in Photoshop then it will show normal clear part of the file. Here is the file if someone can give me the answer I will appreciate. Thanks,
Here is the file.
http://www.glivideo.com/Invitation.png

you might want to take a look at the clip properties for this PNG in FCP(select it in the browser window and then press cmd-9)
take a look under the format tab ... you're looking for the alpha info which may be have been interpreted as premultiplied white or some such. try changing it there. i'm, afraid i don't have FCP available to me at the moment or I'd test for you myself, but its probably something like that thats causing your trouble
hope it helps
