Hiding a Particular Field in Report Builder 6.0

Hi Folks,
In one of my reports which consists of several linked tables, I want a particular field to be omitted in the report output when there are no values for a record. Even the heading/prompt for that field/column should not be printed. I tried using the conditional formatting option but it does not work for the column heading and gives the following error:
REP-1314: Format Trigger M_1 refernces column 'COMM' at wrong frequency.
It only helps if we have the trigger at the field not at the heading.
Any ideas???
TIA
Hassan

One of the solutions is:
make a summurized field (that will count the numbers of records - you'ld use a COUNT function) in the group above the target item and then in formating trigger of the frame you will test the number of the newest field (0 means zero records fetched).

How to remove Built-in-Fields from Report builder report

I have create SSRS report which is sending email to recipient but at the bottom of report email I am also getting
report accessible address. I don’t want to send that address to recipient. How should I remove from report builder?
The report is accessible at the following address
<<Report address>>

You have to change the report subscription, and untick the checkbox that says to also send it as a link.

User inputted letters with dynamic fields in Report Builder

I'm proactively trying to get certain aspects off our hands in IT and more specifically, the way letters are generated through ColdFusion. Right now we are using activeX controls (with some vbscript and asp pages) through IE to do Word mail merges for letter's for our students. We would like the user to be able to change these letters by themselves through our web application and have them saved in our database so they can be stored as a future template.
Now I'm new to Report Builder and have a few examples to show my colleagues, but I'm having troubles being able to dynamically insert the student's name (for example) into the report.
So basically I have an empty template with a huge dynamic box for the text which reads #param.MessageBody# that comes from a textarea within the cfm page. That works, but taking it one step further, I want to replace all instances of "%%StudentName%%" within that MessageBody with the actual student's name.
Since I cannot loop over the report and do my usual ReplaceNoCase(lMessageBody, "%%StudentName%%", Trim(ReportQueryLetters.StudentName), "ALL")>, how can I put this into a built-in function into the report?
I figured the function needs to be in <cffunction name="BeforeExport"> and while a simple display of the message works perfectly, I cannot get my replace line to work. I am passing the query to Report Builder instead of having it built-in, is that my problem?! I would prefer if it was external to save my stored procedures if I can. Is there any way to call the query to get that line to work?!
The code inside the cffunction (in report Builder):
<cfargument name="lTextArea">
<cfset lTextArea = #form.frmTextArea#>
<cfset lTextArea = ReplaceNoCase(lTextArea, "%%StudentName%%", Trim(ReportQueryLetters.StudentName), "ALL")>
<cfreturn lTextArea>
The error:
Element STUDENTNAME is undefined in REPORTQUERYLETTERS.

Sorry for the late reply, just got back from vacation.
I don't think you use ReportQueryLetters for the query. it should be
query.StudentName
Also, you can have an intermediate step on the page that receives the
MessageBody and change the MessageBody before passing it as a parameter to the
report.

How do you call dynamic fields in Report Builder

I have some fields that they were filled in a dynamic way,
and I want to make some calculations using the information that was
populated in this field. When I put the name of the field in my
calculation control, it did not see find the field control.
Does anyone know how can I call the field control? The
information is not part of any particular column of the
query.

Thanks Vikas.
I do it as

There has not other mean do realize it ?

How to hide a report builder field if it is zero

I am using Coldfusion Report Builder. If the value of a feild is zero, how can I hide it or show a blank. Keep in mind this field is a DollarFormat() field.

When you click on the field in Report Builder, look near the bottom of the Properties window, in the "Print Control" section.
You will see an entry labelled "Print When Condition". Put an expression next to it that returns true or false.
For example, in your case, you would put something like the following:
MyField neq 0
Where "MyField" is the name of your field. This expression will only allow the field to be printed when its value is not zero.
Since you're targeting the value of the field you don't have to worry about the formatting that you used next to "Expression" in the "Data" section of the Properties window.

SQL Server 2008 R2 - Report Builder 3.0 - timeout using shared data source and stored procedure

I select the shared datasource from the data source propeties dialog, test the connection and everything is good.
I add a dataset by selecting "use a dataset embedded in my report" option within the Dataset properties dialog.
I select the newly added data source, click the "Stored procedure" query type and drop down the list box and select my intended stored procedure.
the timeout for the dataset is "0" seconds.
I click the "OK" button and I'm presented with the parameters to the stored procedure.
I enter valid data for the parameters and click the "OK" button.
I then get the following error message after 30 seconds:
The problem is, all of the timeouts, that I'm aware of, have values of zero (no timeout) or high enough values that 30 seconds isn't even close to the timeout.
I think the smallest timeout we have is 120 seconds.
I have searched this site and many others and the solutions all involve altering the stored procedure to get the fields into report builder and then revert the stored procedure back to its original form.
To me, this is NOT a solution.
I have too many stored procedures that need to be brought into Report Builder.
I need a real solution.
Thank you for you time, Tim Caldwell.
Timothy E Caldwell

I don't mean to be rude, but really, check to see if the stored procedure can return data rows???
Maybe I'm not being clear enough.
The stored procedure runs perfectly fine.
it runs perfectly fine in the production environment and the test environment.
I can access the stored procedure in several ways and have it return correct data.
I can even trick report builder into creating a dataset with parameters and run the stored procedure that way.
What I cannot do, is to get report builder to not timeout after 30 seconds on the initial creation of a dataset with a Query type of stored procedure.
I have seen this issues posted again and again and again on may different sites and the "solution" is to simplifiy the stored procedure by creating a stored procedure that has a create table and a select in the stored procedure and that's it. After
report builder creates the dataset the developer then has to replace the simplified stored procedure with the actual stored procedure and everything works fine after that.
HOWEVER, having to go through this process for 70 or more stored procedures is ridiculous.
It would appear that there is something within report builder itself that is causing this issue.

how would i do this?

Use the string concatenation character (ampersand) instead of the plus sign.

Query a dataset in MS SQL Server Report Builder and get splitted output of one of the fields

Hi experts,
I have a dataset in MS SQL Server Report Builder containing some rows like the following:
FIELD-1
FIELD-2
FIELD-3
1
efgh
xjhg[R]ztazutsuz[R]9
2
abcd
1234[R]abcd[R]5678
What I need is:
FIELD-1
FIELD-2
FIELD-3
1
efgh
xjhg
1
efgh
ztazutsuz
1
efgh
9
2
abcd
1234
2

5678
Can this be done?
I'll be very happy when one finds a solution.
Kind regards,
Peter

try like this..
Declare @ta table ([FIELD-1] int, [FIELD-2] nvarchar(100), [FIELD-3] nvarchar(100))
insert into @ta
select 1, 'efgh', 'xjhg[R]ztazutsuz[R]9' union all
select 2, 'abcd', '1234[R]abcd[R]5678'
select t.[FIELD-1],t.[FIELD-2], a.b.value('.','nvarchar(100)') as [FIELD-3] from @ta t
Cross apply
(select cast('<R><C>' + replace(t.[FIELD-3],'[R]','</C><C>')+ '</C></R>' as xml) as XStr ) x
Cross apply x.xstr.nodes('R/C')a(b)

Comparing fields from multiple entities in the same report (report builder 1.0)

Created a model that contains 2 entities. I open that model in report builder 1.0. When I drag a field from one of the entities into the design area, i can no longer see the other entity or use any of the fields from that other entity.
I need to use fields from both entities in the same report (join tables). In management studio i would simply write a query and join tables but i cannot figure out how to do this in report builder. Once i select a field from one entity
how do i select fields from more than one entity and drag them into the same report.

Would it be possible for you to send me instructions for this? I am not that familiar with SQL coding but I can definitely figure it out. I have been wanting to get information on reports from multiple entities for a very long time! The only way I can
currently do it is have our document management software people write the report for me for quite a large fee. I would much rather do this myself. Right now I can select a few fields from one entity (the main one), some from a second entity under that one,
but I cannot add any fields from a third entity! Quite annoying and hindering! Thank you :)

Hiding empty columns in report builder

Hi,
This is my first adventure with report builder and I have
managed to produce some custom labels which work almost perfectly.
I say almost because there is one thing I can't seem to do.
I have a label for addresses. The address data consists of
data from a query including, name,
address1,address2,address3,town,county,postcode.
Some of these are quite often empty but the label still
displays a line break and the ',' at the end so I might end up
with:
Dave Phipps
27 Acacia Road,
MyTown,
MT1 4JP
In the above address the fields address2, address3 and county
are empty.
How do I set this up in Report Builder to hide the missing
lines so that I would end up with:
Dave Phipps
27 Acacia Road,
MyTown,
MT1 4JP
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Dave

Refresh of a Report Builder Dataset does NOT show newly added field

I'm working with Report Builder 2.0 (we don't plan on getting SQL 2008 R2 - so NO 3.0 for us!) and have found that if I have an existing report using an existing stored procedure (it has 4 existing parameters) and I add a new field to the stored procedure
it will not refresh the
data set.  I have gone to the DataSet properties and executed the query(SPROC) where it does show the new field (so I know the sproc will
execute), but when I click OK and hit Refresh Fields it stops responding.  I also tried the same steps without the Refresh Fields and still stops responding. I also tried to add the field name and it errored out as invalid.
The only work around I've found is to
create a new dataset referencing the updated SPROC with a different name, deleting the old dataset and then re-naming the newer dataset with the old
one's name so all the field references are the same.  I do know that in the case of renaming
a field in a sproc that this would end BADLY because there is no way any of the old field's references would work.
But it seems odd I have to go through so much to refresh for new fields, so perhaps I'm missing a step in dealing with this situation.  Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Hi CinBH,
I understand that the Report Builder 2.0 hangs while flush the dataset by executing the query. In that case, I think it is necessary to capture a user dump when the problem occurred. And then, you can send the dump to Microsoft CSS support. Support Professionals
from Microsoft will assist you to solve the problem.
I am providing the steps below for you to gather the hang dump or crash dump to further work on this issue,
Hang dump,
a. Open Report Builder as usual, and wait for a while.
b. When you found that the Report Builder application hang, and was not responding, please open TaskManager by one of follws,
- Pressing “Ctrl + Alt + Del” button and then click “Start Task Manager” item.
- Or right-clicking your task bar, click “Start Task Manager”menu.
c. Once the Task Manager opened, switch to Process tab, find the “Report Builder” process MSReportBuilder.exe.
d. Right-click the item, click Create dump file.
e. After that, it will prompt a window and let you know the location of the dump file.
You can copy the hang dump or crash dump file to your development machine configured with symbols files, and open it in Visual Studio 2008. Next, you can analyze the error / exception, and call stacks to see why the error happens.
Thanks,
Eileen

Display field as Verticaly in Report Builder

Hello Guys.
I have question regarind to field. I have generate a report where i have group_by_column template. Now, I need to rotate my group column heading from Horizontal to Vertical. Does anyone know how to rotate the field from Horizontal to Vertical side way?
For example: Let see i have report like
col_1 col_2 col_3
Honda Accord $25000
civic $25350
CR-V $19000
Odyssey $32000
So, as you see above example where HONDA is my group by col_1. I need to rotate HONDA from Horizontal to Vertical. Is it possible in Report Builder and if it can you guys tell me how to do it?
I know DMARS have answer for me...please let me know that will be a great help.
Thank You

In the paper layout you will have to expand the frame that contains col1 to be able to rotate col1. Once you have the frame big enough, select the col1 field. Over on the tool palette click on the rotate button...third button down on the right column. Click on one of the 4 corners of the col1 field and rotate it. You will get an error if it doesn't fit. Also, you can only rotate boilerplate text so you will have to change your field into a text or boilerplate item. Look to see the source of your col1 field and then delete the field on the paper layout. Put a text iten in its place. Put the following text in there "&col1" or whatever the source of your col1 field was. Do not include the double quotes. Now you can rotate the item. If you need more details, search for "rotate" in Reports Builder help.

SSRS (Report Builder 3.0) Showing all values for Multiple Line field with Append Changes

I have a simple SharePoint list with a multiple line column that has append changes enabled. I am doing a report with Report Builder 3.0 and I want to show all values of the field the same way you achieve it through a DVWP using:<SharePoint:AppendOnlyHistory
FieldName="Comments" runat="server"
ControlMode="Display" ItemId="{@ID}"/>
Any suggestions to show all the appended values?

Hi,
I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue.
