Issues opening excel saved as xml with reports builder 10.1.2.0.2

Hi
I saved excel as xml and when I try to open it using Oracel Reports, I get the following error:
REP-6106: Error in XML report definition at line 2 in .....\...\Book1.xml
This is what is there in line 2:
Workbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"
Has anyone had similar issues in opening excel saved as xml?
Any help?
Thx!

Hi
Thanks for the response. The document is good for issues with jsp reports. I am not even able to save this one as jsp till now. Not sure if there is some other way to do it.
This is what I did:
1. Create an excel template with 2 worksheets.
2. Save as xml.
3. Try to open with reports builder.
Thats when I get the error.
Not sure if my version problem or I am missing out on some step.
Thx!

SSRS Execution Account cannot be used with Report Builder

Running SQL Server 2012 SP2, I have specified an Execution Account in Reporting Services Configuration Manager as described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156302(v=sql.110).aspx
The article states: "You can specify Integrated Security=SSPI if the database server supports Windows integrated security and the account used for unattended report processing has permission to read the database." I have created a data source using
the Report Manager Web interface with connection string: "Data Source=<server>;Initial Catalog=<database>;Integrated Security=SSPI" and "Connect using: Credentials are not required" option.
The Execution Account is a domain user account with db_owner membership on the database in question. When I "Test Connection" in Report Manager, the connection is created successfully.
However, when I attempt to create a new dataset using this data source in Report Builder, I am unable to connect to the data source: "You have specified integrated security or credentials in the connection string for the data source, but the data source
is configured to use a different credential type. To use the values in the connection string, you must configure the unattended report processing account for the report server."
If I change the "connect using" option for the data source to "Windows integrated security" I can successfully create a new dataset and report in Report Builder. After saving the report, I reconfigure the data source for "Credentials
are not required" and I am able to successfully run the report using the Execution Account.
Is this a known limitation? The Report Builder cannot be used with an unattended Execution Account configured?

Hi desmondgc,
According to your description, you have set the execution account for connecting data source. You can connect data source successfully, but can't create dataset with the unattended account. Right?
As we tested in our local environment, we encountered the same issue. Even testing connection successfully in Report Builder, it still says unable connect to data source when creating dataset.
For this issue, I would recommend to submit it to the Microsoft Connect at this link
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/Feedback.
This connect site will serve as a connecting point between you and Microsoft, and ultimately the large community for you and Microsoft to interact with. Your feedback enables Microsoft to offer the best software and deliver superior services, meanwhile you

We will keep you updated if we find something, thank you for your posting.

[b]Problems to Print a Report made it with Report Builder Dev. 2k[/b]

I have a report made it with Report Builder and in the screen preview all the information is complete and fine; however when I print it, some letters disappear on the left side of the fiel. I don't know How to correct this. I tried with the properties that allows to fields
expand them in an horizontal and vertical way. But it doesn't work. How can I get a WYSWYG ("What you see What you get") in a print form?... Could be possible
that it is a Report Builder bug and How I can correct this? or maybe I'm creating the reports in a wrong way... I need help...
Thank you very much

Advantage and disadvantage of xml publisher, report builder and discoverer

Hi,
anyone can explain advantage and disadvantage of xml publisher, report builder and discoverer?
thanks in advance!

The best way i found was to put a equals and then double quotes... this only works for excel however it will allow you to cut and paste (ie to use the value to search in Oracle) and also to do vlookups.
In a bit more detail:
- I used word to generate my default table
- this created a field INVOICE_NUM
- in the cell in the table i put = " before the INVOICE_NUM field and then put the closing " afterwards.
The theory is that excel will concatenate the values together... because it has quotes around it, it will treat it as a string rather than simply a value.
For any other formats this will not work.
I'm guessing most people have moved on and resolved this some other way, but just thought I'd share the wealth!

Cfreport cutting off lines on multiple pages created with report builder

I have a report built with report builder and it appears that if you set the body to "stretch with overflow" that cfreport will "cut off" a line or two every time it paginates see attached for a simplified version of the report, I have removed all but the body on this (actual report has a watermark, report header, page header and page footer ...the problem is pretty apparnt with this scaled down version as you can see it's missing text from one page to the next ..any ideas/suggestions/known bug?? You can see a sample of the issue here: http://www.arroyoc.com/onlybody.pdf

Hi Helen,
As per my understanding, I think this issue is caused by width size is not appropriate in the report. To narrow down this issue, please make sure that Body Width + Left margin + Right margin <= (Page width).
If the tablix is a matrix, because of the column group can expand to multiple columns, we should according to the following rule:
Body Width + Extra expanded column width + Left margin + Right margin <= (Page width).
Besides, please make sure there are no extra page breaks before each “R”. To check whether the issue is caused by the letter “R”, we can try to use another field to replace the Company Name field.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

RDS with Report Builder

RDS with Report Builder does not work automatically. I must
first wake RDS up by doing something like accessing the query in
the Report Builder directly. I'm using CF 7.02, Builder Build

Hi Cherise,
Vishal's link looks good.
I have commercial experience in migrating Crystal Reports to SSRS. When performing any type of migration it is always wise for the business requirements to be revisited. It is likely that the business requirements may have changed since the Crystal reports
were initially developed, etc.
I've done some research for you and the following link looks quiet impressive and offers a cheap trial, in terms of a direct migration. Please tell me how you get on; -
http://www.sqlcircuit.com/2013/08/ssrs-how-to-create-report-using-excel.html
I emphasis again I have commercial experience of lots of migration projects and it would be very unwise to not revisit the business requirements as part of the migration process.
Kind Regards,
Kieran.

Numbers can't open Excel files generated by SQL Reporting Services

Hi
I have an issue with Numbers '09 not being able top open certain Excel files. The Excel files in question are XLS files (not XLSX) and come from SQL Reporting Services. They open fine with Excel on the Mac and on Windows - but Numbers on both the Mac and iPad pops up with an "Invalid file format" when trying to open them.
I see this as a problem with Numbers and would like to send Apple an example file so they can look at improving their Excel file support but I can't find anywhere to do this.
Do Apple monitor these forums? Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Mike.

Thanks
I compared the beginning of your file to the beginning of two XL ones which are on my machine (in fact, they are files created with openOffice).
You may see that there are many differences.
They may explain the different behaviour.
If someone is able to drive Excel with an AppleScript,
he may write a script opening your document in Excel,
saving it
opening the newly saved file in Numbers.
As I don't own Excel, I ignore its required syntax so I can't write a clean script.
If the XL's syntax is the same than the Numbers one, this quick and dirty one may do the trick :
set aFile to (path to desktop as text) & "Treatment Report No Header.xls"
tell application "System Events"
set aName to name of disk item aFile
end tell
tell application "Numbers"
open file aFile
save document 1 (* maybe save document aName *)
close document 1 (* maybe close document aName *)
end tell
tell application "Numbers"
open aFile
end tell

Troubleshooting issues opening Excel spreadsheets

Platform: SP 2010 service pack 2. Office 2010, windows 7 on user laptop , IE 9 32 bit browser.
several users started calling recently about problems opening Excel spreadsheets. They are on different SharePoint sites on the same site collection.
No changes/patches have been made to SharePoint.
No changes to the site collection features of configuration of which I am aware.
The site collection is configured that users clicking on a doc library item opens in the application associated with the file type.
When I, as a farm admin (which I need to do due to permissions), and I click on the Excel documents on person 1's troubled site, they open in Excel as expected.
When the person reporting the problem clicks on the Excel spreadsheets, he gets one of two behaviors.
On the first paginated page (documents 1-31) , if he clicks on an Excel document, two instances of the Excel application opens.
On page 3 (documents 61-90) when he clicks on an Excel document, the excel data appears within the web page itself with a button at the top that says "Open in Excel". When he clicks that, he gets an error box that states
To open this workbook, your computer must have a version of Microsoft Excel installed and your web browser must support opening files directly from Excel in the browser.
This of course is interesting since on the first page, clicking on one of the documents uses the version of Excel installed and opens the file directly.
None of these behavior, of course, can I duplicate.
And, just to add another confusing item to the list, if this person goes to a different doc library and everything works fine.
So this does not seem to be related to add-ons (why would add-ons act differently between sites?).
The sites that I have examined all have the same advanced setting regarding opening the document in the client app rather than the browser.
I have not yet started the process of having a repair on Office 2010 be broken in a way that on different pages different behaviors occur?

Well, after the admins performed the repair on Office 2010, the user was able to click on Excel workbooks and have them open as expected.

Unable to Connect to the Data Source with Report Builder when using a closed Excel file

I am using Report Builder 3.0 and to get started I am using an Excel spreadsheet as my data source. I set this up just fine. I can connect successfully if the file is open Excel. But if I close the file, I get the error "Unable to
Connect to the data source".
This is my connection string:
Dsn=Licenses;dbq=C:\USERS\AMEADE\DOCUMENTS\licenses.xlsx;defaultdir=C:\USERS\AMEADE\DOCUMENTS;driverid=790;fil=excel 8.0;maxbuffersize=2048;pagetimeout=5
Works fine if the file is open but stops working when the file is closed. Any idea what I can do?

Hi Alice,
Based on my understanding, when you keep the Excel file open, you can connect to the data source correctly. But when you close the Excel file, the error “Unable to Connect to the data source” is thrown out.
In your scenario, I would like to know if only this Excel comes across this issue. Have you experienced the same issue when you use other Excel files as a data source? As we tested in our environment, we can connect to the data source whether the Excel file
is open. You can refer to this
article to create a data source again then check if you can connect to the data source when the Excel file is closed.
If issue persists, I would suggest you use the
Process Monitor to capture the processes during the connection to the data source. Then check the result of each process to find the exact reason.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,

Problems with report builder 3.0 in SCCM 2012 R2 CU2

Hi All
I have problems with editing (Using Report builder) existing reports or creating new ones in SCCM 2012 R2 CU2
We version of SQL we use is SQL 2008 R2 SP2
I already asked this question in the SCCM 2012 forum but the problem is not related to SCCM but has something to do with application report builder
I changed the registry key and edited the Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.exe.config.xml as described in the following link

I hope someone can give me some advice , I am lost with this error
Thx in advance

Hi Miss Katherine,
1. I went through the SQL steps in the link you posted
2. I updated the Reg Key and Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.exe.config file with 3.0 on both the
server and the console machine.
3. I copied the .DLL file from your OneDrive and replaced the existing one on the server.
4. I uninstalled and re-installed the reporting role on the server and received the 1015 in the log.
5. I restarted the server and the client machine
I do get a slightly different error now after using the new DLL

Bug in PDF generation with Report Builder CF8

Hello
there is a bug in the calculation of the left margin of a
page.
I upgraded from MX 7.02 to CF8. My "old" Reports worked fine,
but when I export them to PDF an print them the left margin is
different.
I'm using metric settings in the Report Builder. I created a
new Report with Left Margin 2 cm and a single Field with the left
Property = 1 cm (0.9879 cm). The printed paper with these poperties
where fine. I could measure appoximatly 3cm . But if I use Report
Left Margin = 1.27 cm and Field left Property = 0.35cm. The left
margin of the printed paper is only 1.1cm.
So it depends on the choosen Values of report left margin and
the left property of a field.
Does anybody else have the same problem?

I found this posting as I have now "rediscovered" this issue. I came to the same conclusion - edit ALT TEXT for every image.
However, I think it is confusing that these paths of image file are not considered Personal Information that can be removed using the Inspect Document feature (I tried - was not successful). The list of things to be removed using this wizard is quite extensive
- and some of them less visible than these file paths.
It would be interesting to know if this is going to change with future updates of Word. Why is an ALT TEXT included at all per default? I think using the file path in ALT TEXT should be made optional. Is there a way to turn off this default embedding of
the full path?
As the OP I also used Office 2013 on Windows 7 64bit.

Oracle database 10g connectivity problem with Report Builder

Hi,
I need to amend a .rdf report and am using the dev10g. I can't connect the test database from report builder.
It is getting the error like :
"ORA-12154 : TNS: could not resolve service name".
I can connect the database from sql*plus, Toad etc. Also It's giving me the response when I run the TNSPING command with the database name.
Could someone advise me that how can I resolve this problem?
Thanks,

set the TNS_ADMIN variable point to the correct tnsnames.ora file
or try the note mentioned in http://www.alexyscorp.com/products.htm
Lastly try opening a command line/dos prompt, set the TNS_ADMIN variablea and start the reports builder from commandline
